I guess they’re just not for everyone then. I suppose it would be good if they could come out with something that’s adjustable, but who knows if that’s possible. I’ve bugged them for a telecommunications option. I.E. something with a boom mic that you can use at the computer and while they’ve acknowledged my feedback, who knows what kind of R&D process/budget they’ve got.
I know there are other bone conduction options out there, but aside from Aftershokz kind of being the gold standard right now, I think they all more or less work off of a similar design Cristóbal From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Monday, December 10, 2018 10:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Question for anyone using bone conduction ear phones I've given them my feedback each time I returned the headsets for a refund.

I’ve tried them and they are too small for my head. It is like having a vice clamped on my head. I can’t wear them for more than 5 minutes without a severe headache. I’ve tried the latest model and since they are not truly adjustable, they are just not quite bit enough.

I have also used Afgtershokz for many years, my current model is theTitanium version, and I absolutely love them. They are handy for listening to audio books around the house while keeping track of conversation or other activity around me, for listening to GPS directions as I walk, or for listening to music at the gym. Even while working out, I don’t like to tune out my surroundings completely. And for what it’s worth, I have never had any complaints at all about my audio through the microphone while talking on the phone. Obviously, there are headsets out there that will have much better sound quality all the way around, but when it comes to bone conduction, I think the Aftershokz are fantastic.

From: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]< <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]> On Behalf Of R Van Lant Sent: Sunday, December 9, 2018 9:26 PM To: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: Question for anyone using bone conduction ear phones I am thinking of asking for Aftershokz headphones for Christmas. Here’s my question. The reason I want bone conduction head phones is that I am often walking along noisy streets where it is hard to hear my phone without turning up the volume to the point that it hurts my ear. I tend to wear one ear bud at a time so that I can use my other ear for hearing my environment. I think the main reason most people want bone conduction is to hear without blocking out environmental noise, but do they work well enough that you can hear by a noisy road? Do we still run the risk of hurting our precious hearing when turning up the volume with bone conduction? Thanks. Robin -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
