Thanks folks, I think the Amazon is selling the Bluetooth wireless aftershockz for 111 Dollars. I think I will just order them and try them. If I do not like them I will return them back right away. Cheers, Cris

I have the older Aftershokz headset. I still use them because I find them super comfortable, and I like the fact they don't block external noise. On the downside, the audio quality isn't great, but more than OK for listening to a screen reader, audio books or podcasts. An audiofile wouldn't be satisfied using this headset to listen to music. There's also some sound bleed, so people around you will hear buzzing or even what you're listening to if you have the volume cranked up. I'd recommend them for the situation where you want to listen to a TTS or voices and you don't want to block exterior noises. I wouldn't recommend them for listening to music. I'm not sure if these somewhat less versatile headphones are worth it for you or not. On 03/21/2018 08:07 PM, Andy Baracco wrote: I have used the Aftershokz products for a few years. They have steadily improved in that time, in terms of sound quality and durability. They are perfect for mobile use, especially while using a GPS navigation app or something like AIRA. As to whether they are worth the price, that is a personal decision for each individual dependent on income and priorities.

Hello folks, I wonder if any of you have used bone conduction headsets. Are they worth buying? I like to know how clear the sound is and how comfortable are they to wear. I do not have any hearing problems, but since I use headsets while I am using my computer, my iPad, my iPhone, and even my android tablet, I thought protecting my ear drums against potential damage is a good idea. I am also thinking that keeping my ear open to know my surrounding while walking in the streets and using navigation, a bone conducting headset is theoretically the most appropriate. I am just not sure if it is worth to throw away over 100 bucks to try. For this I hope to get a feedback from those among you who have used them.
