I have no doubt that the maker of this video never tested a pair themselves. Many things they stated were idiotic like one model coming with three different ear inserts for best fit or that Shokz require a proprietary charger when it's only the cable that is proprietary in its connection to the headset. They are simply reading specs and marketing descriptions
@bertlammens4392 it could be but it's probably not. Regardless, a lot of people do this type of thing as a side gig like making comparison videos on things in this format as stated above (just reading specs and marketing descriptions) and just uploading it to UA-cam. The views especially if it's a popular topic or item, is an easy way to get a UA-cam check for income. If you're smart enough to use AI as you mentioned since it's still relatively new, then this job/task of making UA-cam content just gets even easier for an easy check.
I had to stop reading the comments to keep from being frustrated. Too many don't know the difference between "there," "their," and "they're." Also some don't know the difference between "your" and "you're."🤦🏽♂️
Do we really need a repeated explatation of what bone conduction is, and it's benefits, for EVERY single product in this review. We can read a brochure too.
Mark since I am sure you are not speaking for everyone watching this video I would say yes those who produced this video don't want to leave anyone out in receiving all the info and should explain everything.
I have the Aftershockz and yeah their good but one thing I don't like about it is the high beeping sound that plays when you connect them. It hurts the ears. I didn't see it mentioned in this video at all which makes me wonder if any of the other ones have it
Same, it is mind killing how annoying it is. there are so many good options in china that have yet to be sold elsewhere. the xiaomi and sanag are great and no big beeps
Number 1 Better Be OpenRun Pro Is What I Was Just About To Say When It Was Their Number 1 . The battery actually lasts way longer than 10 hours . I've gotten 14 to 16 on OpenRun pros
To be honest, most batteries have less playtime than officially claimed. Openrun Pro claims to be able to play continuously for 10 hours, but in most cases it can only play continuously for 7-8 hours. This does not mean that the manufacturer intends to deceive consumers . In fact, the 10 hour playtime they promote is the result of laboratory testing at a volume of 60-70%. The situation of our Wissonly Hi Runner battery Playtime is similar to that of Openrun Pro. As a peer, there is no doubt that Openrun Pro is an excellent product.Of course, our Wissonly Hi Runner also has some unique product features, such as IPX8 high-level waterproof, 32G built-in storage, and so on
Not me. I normally listen at max since I mostly use them outside when walking around in the city, and the battery last between 5 and 6 hours. I suppose it's possible to make it last longer if the volume is super low.
@3:05 "...and has three different ear tips... to sit comfortably IN your ears..." What do you mean by that, 3 different-sized ear tips to put IN your ear??? Can you explain, I can't even see where those tips could sit on the Haylou?
wish you talked about sound quality of the receiver or the person hearing your call. I have the shokz bone conductor yes there great on my side of a call but if your on the other end of my call the people are unable to understand anything I say. really hope you would have given us a opinion / review of for audio quality of calls on both sides of the call. it useless if you cant be understood.
This is my exact concern! But anyway, I noticed terrible microphone performance even from verry expensive apple buds... Guess it all comes down to the mic beeing too far from the mouth and the ambient noise levels...
Hmm the reviewer says the openrun pro uses Bluetooth 4.1 however the box says 5.1. I tend to believe the box. The shocks are a great alternative to traditional ear buds and definitely get better battery life than advertised.
I have a pair of the before name change Aftershokz and the charge port is a micro usb. Nothing proprietary about that charging. I noticed that the Bose open sport conduction headphones didn’t make the list, did they even get tested for this list? Any opinions on those headphones?
Do all these bone conducting headphones amplify normal sounds ? I don't really need to play music but want to use them at a gun range to lessen the noise of gunfire but let me hear people speaking near me.
@@bobflynn7032 bone conduction headphones aren’t made for the range, they are just for listening not protection. You need some electronic earmuff/ in-ear type protection!
The biggest lie is there no loss of sound quality! They are great for out doors so you can hear cars but there is a lot of sound quality sound loss!! They doesn’t sound half or even a quarter as good as ear buds
As a practitioner in the field of bone conduction, we must be honest. Of course, bone conduction headphones have shortcomings, such as low sound reproduction and inferior sound quality to traditional noise-canceling headphones, such as the problem of sound leakage.Bone conduction headphones are not intended to replace traditional headphones, but are used in some specific scenarios as a supplement to traditional headphones. For example,use during sports or long meetings, or underwater sports use. Our Wissonly Hi Runner is designed specifically for underwater sports such as swimming.
There is no sound loss. The sound goes to your skull bone. Of course, the sound quality will not be good or loud as one directed into your ear holes. Think about it.
Push and hold volume button to turn on/off. Ear tips are just normal silicone ear plugs; you can find anywhere to block out sound. However, using them really defeats the whole purpose of open ear headphones.
The Openrun Pro's have terrible sound, the Aeropex Mini's are great though. Seem to have different amplifiers and the voice prompts are much much higher quality on the Mini's. I also have the newest Mini's but again the Aftershokz ones sound better than the Shokz ones..
Why keep repeating the bone-conducting technology for every product. It sounds like you take the marketing material for 90% of the "reviews"?? Also, AfterShokz isn't a current product, they changed their name to Shokz long before this video. I'm sorry, but this doesn't feel like anything else than parroting the respective manufacturers marketing images and texts, with small "pros and cons" that don't say much attached at the end of every commercial. Please correct me if I am wrong, I'm not here to crap on anyone, I'm just not convinced this gives me any consumer advice at all.
@@WindsofChange2112 No. But I'll tell you what my wife suggested and as much as I hate to say it, it worked. The hairs inside my ears was my problem. She used some kind of wax to remove the hair. Problem solved.
How do they stay on?? I bought a super cheap pair just to see what they're about. Any movement, they popped off. If there's no "pinch" how do they stay on?
You show all of these being worn by men or above average height women. It would be nice if there was one on the list that would be best for smaller women and kids. It seems no one ever considers that for wearable devices.
I would recommend not listening to music when exercising. It forces you to focus on your breathing, technique, timing and mental engagement. It's the difference between "working out" and "Training".
It’s a recommendation, not an order. It’s a suggestion based on my experience and experiences of others I have trained. Thanks for saving the internet from me.

For sound probably but their are different philosophy, there are 4 main reason to use thess: -Wanna reduce hearing loss -You have some deaf or hearing loss, this allows you to hear -Need to be aware of your surroundings -Swimming training more hapoy
I have a pair like this but I think the name bone conduction is wrong as I think they they are just speakers that sit near your ears. Bone conduction is when it vibrates your ear bone. Which these type don't.
You are incorrect. When you actually use one, you will know. The one you probably got was falsely advertised as bone conduction headphone. (Cheap Chinese knockoff?)
I think a Wissonly Hi Runner needs to be added to the list. In fact, I have an Openrun Pro and a Hi Runner, both of them work well. But if you want to use it for swimming, Wissonly has obvious advantages. It is IPX8 waterproof and has 32G storage, making it very suitable for swimming. It has a great wearing experience when used for running.
I don’t want to hear ambient sounds when listening to my music; I want to be home, in a European leather recliner, with a single malt Scotch in one hand, and a conductor’s music baton in the other.

So not a single bone conduction headset that can be used by swimmers or divers then? I have a set from Amazon that can be used with Bluetooth terrestrially, and has a built in 32 gig capacity for listening in and under water. That's far more useful than any of these.

How efficient noise canceling can be, as the device does not cover the ear?
I think it refers to the mic. Noise cancelling in a noisy or windy environment.
Yeah I thought that..... definitely not noise cancelling
Very nice. I would like one with TF card mp3
These seem cool but was the difference between putting earbuds on transparency mode
