    I got mine yesterday. Wore them for my workout. But they sounded so good and were so comfortable that I wore them all day. And even when they were turned up, I could still hear everything around me, so that was great too (since you want to be able to hear things around you when you’re walking outside, working out or whatever). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Flossy, thank you for bringing open ear concepts to the mainstream! They have their place and I appreciate your reviews. I ran with a Trekz Titanium for a few years. It's still alive but the plastic started cracking. I recently got the Sanag Z50 Pro Max cuz I realized I really just prefer them for listening to speaking vids like yours and just leave one on one ear. Each earbud will literally last all day. Now, until the day someone comes out with some bluetooth ear piercing studs that don't look whack, tech still has a long way to go! Keep em coming Floss.

    I have several of the generic brand air conduction earbuds from Amazon. I love this style and I'm thrilled to see Tozo come out with these. My ears can only handle in the ear earbuds for so long. They get irritated and tired. I have the Oladance ($140) earbuds and they're great but pricey. These types of air conducting earbuds I can where all day. Hopefully Tozo comes out with wireless earbuds so I can scoop those up at reasonable price. Good looking out Floss.

    Just got mine yesterday for about 35.00 they okay, get loud enough without hurting ears after listening for long time, my battery life has been 100% for last 4hrs. I did notice it cutting out for a sec or two a couple times which was kinda annoying especially if listening to music your groovy n getting into, might due to phone location back pants pocket also possible interference. Bass is good especially when listening on UA-cam vids like this review or music overall though like Floss said can't go wrong with these headphones.

    @konradc12 11 місяців тому +2

    The Tozo OpenReal are similar to the Soundpeats RunFree Lite air conduction earphones that I own. I had a pair of Shokz Openmove bone conducting earphones, but the poor bass and overall sound made me get the Soundpeats air conduction earphones. I had issues with the max volume, but I switched of the volume sync one my Samsung, so the Bluetooth level was max, and there was more volume on the earphones. I only paid under £25 from Amazon UK with discount over a month ago. The Tozo currently retail for £49.99 here in the UK.

    • @bryanbryant9962
      @bryanbryant9962 11 місяців тому +1

      I own the Soundpeats RunFree Lite (I paid $30 USD, price is $25.49 USD as I type this). It sounds just as good as my Oladance ($149 USD)! I realize Oladance has other advantages besides just the sound, but for its much higher price I was expecting the sound to be much superior. So if you can't afford a "top" brand like Oladance you can still have great sound for an amazingly affordable price. After watching this review by Flossy, I decided to order the Tozo OpenReal. It looks like a step up from Soundpeats RunFree Lite while still coming in at a very appealing price.

Great multi connect change over too. & the sound goes in the ear just the right place. Good onya, Flossy, UA-cam,TOZO, & Amazon overnite delivery! I think there are also some mysterious hidden settings/actions whatever with touching L or R (bud) with taps or swipes? Maybe an IOS TOZO app update will tell? I got the beigy colour for a change instead of black & can hardly see them on!😊J &🦜🦜

    Going to do a major go, allot of the open ear market is allot of misses. The Shocks let me down, maybe I got a defective unit but anything past half volume they distort and that’s at $180.00. The oladance seem to be very fragile. I dropped one in the sink and it was done. Also afraid of them falling off while have a window open…….
    Hoping the best for these, thanks Floss

    I've been wanting you to review the Shokz open ear headphones that almost look identical to these 🎧 for a while! I always just wanted your take. I like them a lot, though open fit's are cool, but they kind of defeat the purpose of open ear because they rest on your ear instead of your temple. Now the open fits sound better, but it's still not bone conduction.

    Yep these do sound good especially for the price. A little extra bass, useful for outdoors. They fit me terribly though. Easily shake them off and they droop out of position, ruin the sound and ache my ear after an hour. Other air-conduction sets didn't fit me either.(Soundpeats Runfree lites) and sound poorly. Still searching..

    Just got a pair of bone conducting headphones to try. They do have that muffled sound to them but what I don't like is that people around me can here my music or podcast too. I know this is unavoidable with the technology but do these air conducting versions keep others from hearing the music since they're laying on top of the ear canal without going inside?

    As someone with some hearing loss, I'm in the "loud crowd". I don't remember if you reviewed the Soundpeats RunFree Lites, but if you did, which is louder?

    • @konradc12
      @konradc12 11 місяців тому

      I will let you know in a few days. I already own the Soundpeats, but the Tozo are on order. I found a way of getting more volume from the Soundpeats RunFree Lite, by enabling 'Disable absolute volume' in Developer options on Android. This separates the Bluetooth level from the earphones volume control. Since I am using Samsung which has 'Modes and Routines', I made a routine to set the Bluetooth level to 100% when connected, so the volume controls on the earphone set the volume of your choice. Another thing about the Soundpeats is the app is not very good or useful. Samsung has it's own equalizer within the music app, so doesn't need the Soundpeats app that also wants to know personal information!

    • @konradc12
      @konradc12 11 місяців тому +1

      My Tozo OpenReal were delivered a couple of days earlier than expected, so here is the answer. The Tozo goes much louder, but the sound gets shrill/brighter. The Soundpeats are close but with a warmer sound. There is more detail treble with the Tozo and the sound quality is slightly better. I played both without downloading and using their respective apps, so equal settings. The £20 (UK) difference is the Tozo has soft flexible ear hooks, touch control, customization of controls, though I think the magnetic charge cable seems to be of a poor quality! The Soundpeats hard plastic hooks don't feel uncomfortable, even after extended use. Remember everyone has different fitting requirements. The USB-C charging means I can use any of the cables and chargers I already own. The Soundpeats software was a problem to get running, and after a firmware update the the earphones, I deleted it. I use Samsung music player that has it's own equalizer. It's very close and both have their strengths. I will use both and combined they are cheaper than the cheapest Shokz Openmove, plus they both fit and sound better that the bone conducting earphones. I have good hearing so my views may not be helpful.

    • @konradc12
      @konradc12 11 місяців тому +1

      The Tozo are louder after reverting the Bluetooth settings to sync with volume. The Soundpeats are not as loud!

    • @konradc12
      @konradc12 11 місяців тому +1

      Play with the EQ either using the app or if the music player has one, such as Samsung music player or PowerAmp, to get the sound preference. The sound is getting warmer as the speakers bed in.

    I was so disappointed with these as they didn’t hold a charge for more than a couple of hours. Your review was why I purchased and I guess I got a bad pair. Thanks.

    Hey Floss, I have a quick question. So I'm totally blind, so when I'm walking outside, I need to be able to here what cars are doing so I can cross the streets safely. Can I still wear these and really be able to listen to traffic? You said that the music is louder, so I didn't know if it still let's in your sarounding's like the shockz.

      @christianbertling902 writes, "I didn't know if it still let's in your sarounding's like the shockz." Yes, it lets in your surroundings. Instead of pressing against your cheekbone like bone conduction headphones, air conduction places the speaker closely over the entrance of your ear but not in your ear. "Can I still wear these and really be able to listen to traffic? You said that the music is louder" Sure, you can listen to traffic. Your ears are open. Also, you can turn down the music volume as low as you prefer.
