I have the Aftershokz Aropex. I find the battery life to be absolutely excellent. I have hearing difficulty and these don't interfere at all with my hearing aids. Also, it separates the sound from my iPHONE from what's coming into my hearing aids which is very useful. If I want to listen to a movie or audio drama, I would use my AirPods as they give much fuller sound. However, for podcast or spoken word content, the Aropex are becoming my preferred headset while writing. You do lack some bass but it's not a complete absence. If you want music for background it does a fine job. I have the Titaniums and the Aropex are a nice upgrade from them. The transducers are much smaller and the headset is far more comfortable to wear. They're great for walking outdoors when you want GPS directions without sacrificing hearing. Also, the mic and noise cancellation for phone calls works far better than the Titaniums did. I have confidence that people will actually understand me even in windy conditions. They're worth the price if you go in with the right reasons and expectations.
