[@irsyad2168]

[@MarcoDiSilvestre]

I work in a really loud environment (data center) where hearing protection like ear plugs are required. The difference in sound quality when the ear plugs are in is like night and day. That is why they included them in the box. There is a HUGE market for these for anyone that works on loud areas, practically everyone I work with owns a pair. You should try them with the ear plugs in.

[@cokesodanotdrug]

What exactly do you mean? Like having the ear plugs in make them sound better or worse?

[@dumduq]

Obviously better, use them context clues little buddy.

[@eliasali9383]

@@dumduq no need to be harsh

[@sergeant_dornan_]

@@dumduq depends. Plugging your ears leaves just the bone conduction (in reality those still emit quite a bit of sound through the air, and when your ears are plugged - well...) and it certainly adds A LOT of volume and bass, but the sound becomes muffled, very much so. So I'd say that I enjoy listening to music with my ears open when it's possible.

[@FuzzNiner]

I have a pair and if I had to use one word to describe it’d be, “freedom.” I like the ability to listen to music while I workout, work in the office, and do other things while still hearing my surroundings. It’s like having a soundtrack for life. These are the only headphones allowed in many marathons due to the wearer still being able to hear race officials. Bass is lacking but the sound quality is great. These weren’t made with deep bass immersion in mind. the design language was to open you up to the world. Imagine, it’s like listening to a KZbin video or some background music on a Bluetooth speaker, the only difference is that others around you can’t hear what you’re listening to. Also, he doesn’t mention it here, but people with outer and middle ear hearing impairment will be able to hear these as the vibrations bypass and go directly to your inner ear and vibrates the cochlea. Best way to describe is like the sound is inside your head. The mind blowing part is if you put the included earplugs in (maybe for listening to music in environments that require hearing protection, or maybe for temporary isolation) that’s when your mind really gets blown. Bass thumps and they sound like regular headphones/earbuds. But your ears are plugged! Wasn’t sure they were going to be worth the $160 but I can say I’m super happy with them!

[@danfelbm]

Very interesting. Thank you very much. May I ask you if there are any counter indications? Are they safe to use long-term?

[@roslolian11]

What about the sound bleed though, can other people here what you are listening to? I dont like it when I hear other people's songs at the gym so I'd hate it if I was blasting tunes and annoying the people beside me while working out.

[@FuzzNiner]

Daniel Felipe not sure.. I mean maybe the same issues if you’re blasting them too loud like any other headphones.

[@FuzzNiner]

roslolian11 it’s minimal (you start hearing brass instruments around 50%) and like he said only when you turn them up pretty loud. The only thing with in the gym is if the gym’s playing their music over their speakers you’ll have to fight to hear the Aeropex, but if their music isn’t too loud then it’s fine. I like them when in the gym only because I lift with a buddy and hate pulling out my headphones all the time and asking him “huh? What’d you say?” If you’re solo or running on the treadmill I’d recommend regular headphones.

[@iamvillainmo]

@@roslolian11 only sound bleed when really loud. I wear them at the office and almost everywhere without a problem

[@iJansport]

I own their titanium and air models. I have very bad hearing loss in my right ear. These bone conduction headsets are the only way I can enjoy music at a level that i used to before hearing loss. With normal headphones one ear will always sound significantly louder for me and its not a good experience. Love aftershockz for continuing to improve this technology over the years.

I believe that there is one more good reason for the bone conduction. There are people, like me, that have a huge problem using the regular - in the ear - versions. I tried every single format, none was able to fit comfortably, or at all sometimes , in my ears. Ok, so my ears are not normal or something. But I've talked with other people with the same problem. Sure the regular bigger around the hear headphones work, but not the more practical in the ear ones. Bone conduction freed me - and others - from walking on the street listening to our music wearing this big headphones covering our ears. That's good in my book :)

[@klehlyn]

as someone that owns the TREKZ model from this company, I can say that the best possible experience I've had with them is in regards to mood augmenting music, where you would typically want the full sound blocking shroud headphones but cannot have those. for example, I will play some binaural beat tracks at work when I need to be able to hear the desk phone ring and such, and my whole environment comes in while I still can hear and FEEL the frequency music full dive. so for passive listening, these are PERFECT. Best option to replace a dull ambiance whenever possible... also, the battery life is AWESOME.

I have had four AfterShokz - latest is the Aeropex. Reason I've had four is I keep giving them away to friends. I wear them from about 6:00 am until about 10:00 pm - awesome battery life. Yeah - sound isn't perfect but they sound excellent to me. Comfortable as not wearing them at all. Good job!

[@shalahmadi]

I bought these. They are nice but if you increase volume level to around 70% you will feel that weird tingling sensation which can be distracting. I think if I can adjust the fit so they will rest forward like 1inch/2cm away from the ear and more on the bony part, it will be much better. I sent a question to AfterShokz asking them if I can adjust the fit myself by bending the arch around the ear. Unfortunately, they did not respond. But, these are simply the most comfortable headset I ever used. I don't tolerate in ear earbuds for prolonged use. But I can wear these for the whole day and I forget that I am wearing them. They are also safe while driving because your ears will be open to hear everything. I hope in the future they can use USB Type-C charging port. I understand the physical/technical and waterproofing limitations but I believe they can do it. They just need to continue improving their products and I believe in few years they can get everything just right. Moral of the story, I did not regret buying these.

BTW, while I was trying to find the best position for comfort and sound, I discovered that putting my fingers over my ears next to the OpenRun buds the sound level increased by several DBs! Maybe you people can try and see if you get the same result.

I have just purchased these after my Plantronics Backbeat 2100 gave up 1 week outside of a 12m warranty. I wanted a product that handled and was more resistant to sweat when running and exercising. When running with the Backbeat 2100s my ears would fill up with sweat and I would have to remove to the ear buds to drain them and put them back in my ears. With these AfterShokz headphones, I am anticipating that sweat is no longer an issue since they are outside the ear. I also like the magnetic charging clip, which I think should be more durable as it does not absorb water. The nail in the coffin for the Backbeat 2100s was that they stopped accepting a charge via the micro usb port, and I guess the charge port failure was a complication of operating in a salty sweat laden environment combined with a micro usb port. The Afterworkz product comes with a two-year warranty and just seem like a sturdier construction all around. If you run outside and go cycling it is pretty crucial to be able to hear your environment if you value your life and being responsive to people around you. I listen primarily to audiobooks and podcasts when exercising so these should be perfect. The audio quality however is acceptable even for music. One thing to not though is that on certain frequencies and at higher volumes, you do feel a tingly sensation on your skin, which is not ideal. For 90% of the time this is not an issue, but a deeper male voice reading an audiobook can trigger this. The solution is to turn the volume down a bit and fiddle with the fit and it goes away. Anyway, early days, but I am hopeful.

There were actually two other models between these and the ones from the first video (the bluez 2s). They were the Trekz Titanium and the Trekz Air. I bought me a set of the bluez 2s after watching the unbox therapy and they were great for my job as a night stocker, but after 6 months of HEAVY use the adhesive for the rubber began to peel. I then bought me the next one up, the Trekz Titanium. That was about 2 - 3 years ago and I wear them almost every day and hardly ever take them off. In fact, if I leave the house without them I feel like I am missing something, akin to if I forgot my glasses. I have to recommend any of the versions as they are fantastic.

[@Sreeve94]

The benefit of these vs. in-ear noise cancelling headphones is that these don't block your ear canal. That's actually better for your ear health, as it doesn't mess with wax production and function - if you have in-ears a lot it can dry your ears out, leaving them itchy and prone to infection. So these are better for ear health. However, one drawback is because they don't seal your ear, you can't block out external sound like you can with in-ears with noise cancellation. The in-ears therefore give you the best of both worlds when you're out and about - letting you either cancel all external noise, or let all of it (or some of it) in. Using these bone-conduction ones is great if you know you want to be aware the whole time - so particualrly good for cycling and running etc, but not if you want to be able to switch it up.

Definitely one of the best, but for $160? I don't know. You think it's worth it?

[@senseicheekclapper4805]

It's for hearing your surroundings and a more minimalist design.

[@chichan9013]

Yes, i think it's worth it.

[@AdithyaShankaran]

Hmm yeah a bit expensive

[@chichan9013]

@@404Tired yeah I changed my mind. It's worth it, depends only on how you use it. In my case yes, totally.

[@andrewkirkpatrick8517]

I wear mine 12+ hours per day so for me, yes it's worth it.

[@The005678]

I work in very loud environments such an oil refineries and chemical plants where it is not allowed to have headphones and heating protection is required in most areas and these give the the option to listen to music without having the hazard of damaging my hearing.

[@ohhhnooooo446]

That s how my hearing aid works but mine costs 1000£

[@WeebsRSuperior]

Me too I got BAHA's

[@harryt418]

When I saw the earplugs it reminded me of the time I spent working in a auto parts warehouse for Ford. The sound pollution was very intense and I had to us earplugs to protect my hearing. This product would have let me enjoy music on the job yet still protect my hearing.

[@vamishhh]

Lew listening to NF was the HIGHLIGHT

[@iam.damian]

Living in Denmark, I bike everywhere. I spend 3+ hours a week on a bike commuting to school / work. And since I love podcasts and music, this is a perfect way to enjoy it without getting run over.

[@sameersharma4187]

Listening to NF Everybody liked it ❤️

[@Dendrolycopodiumd]

I bought a different pair of AfterShokz after being attacked on a run by off-leash dogs that were roaming a residential neighborhood without any people around. I was wearing headphones at the time and thought I had the music low enough to hear most of my surroundings, but I didn't notice the dogs until I felt teeth in the back of my thigh. I will never run with in-ear headphones again. Love my AfterShokz for running. They also work really well for my job, where i work in a lab and need to be able to hear my labmates and feedback from machines. Would definitely recommend these or similar bone-conduction headphones for times when you need to be aware of your surroundings but still want to listen to music/podcasts/etc.

[@AkashMahata]

this will be great for listening asmr videos & binaural audios

[@plasticbottle1771]

Think you mean boneural audio

[@kirikami08]

I have Sudden sensineural hearing loss in Left ear, which means I was able to hear clearly from both ears since birth until I had it in my teens. Theoretically this type of BC headphone doesn't really work in my condition since It's the nerve that's damaged, not the ear canals/inner ear structure (For details: Weber test, tuning fork on your forehead, is lateralized to the unaffected ear and Rinne test is AC>BC, you can hear clearer with tuning fork near your ear than pressing on your bone) I will try this once I get the chance though, on the off-chance that I had some kind of mixed HL (hadn't been to audiogram for a while after I learned about this in ENT and can't access to my audiogram chart to confirm which type I really was)

[@bbalila]

Just bought 2 of these for my wife @ SAMs club @$99 to replace the old model.

[@SupraJulie]

I love them. They are great for walking, cycling, etc, because you can still hear traffic, talk to your neighbors, and such. You don't need to turn the volume high. I personally almost never wear headphones because of having them drown out noises, or if I am in the house I just listen to stuff on a speaker. If I want to sleep or relax I wear my sleep phones. The ear buds are uncomfortable and the only thing I like my headphones for are computer games. Best thing is that you can wear them IF YOU ARE DEAF and get the stereo experience. My husband is deaf on one ear and can hear with both ears using them. He can't even use a normal hearing aid (was told he would need a cochlear implant because everything but his bone conductive hearing is gone.

[@Samuellwright]

The whole point of earphones for me is not to talk to no one lol

[@jesseserranoll39]

Lew, thanks for all you do! Hey a couple of things. On the Aeropex, if you hold the 2 volume buttons simultaneously for a couple of seconds, you will hear "Equalizer" and IMMEDIATELY you will hear and feel more bass (or less). It's not a lot of adjustment, but definitely a difference. I am not sure which mode you were in when you were listening. In reality I like most music on the bass boosted level, but a lot of Funk, R & B, or anything with heavy out-front bass actually makes the headset vibrate and feels to strange for me.. maybe I will get used to it. If you put the foam "ear plugs" in (or any other ear plugs) , it changes the sound to a completely different level. Great for Airline travel! I do work in Warehouses on occasion and the Aeropex allow me to work and listen to whatever. OSHA regulations have a lot to say about anything that plugs or covers your ears as getting crushed by a forklift could ruin your weekend, but since these do not hinder my hearing, they are perfectly legit. The IP rating is also great for working out/ running.. or working in a hot nasty Warehouse! Keep up the great work!

[@greenworld6980]

Wait I am just curious .. Will these bone conduction earphones be harmful to bones next to our ears ??

[@umangmalik]

lol nope

[@darkcody2207]

The thing is you always hear partially due to bone conduction (it’s actually the reason why your voice feels lower when you talk than on a recording) the dinférence here is that it’s only bone conduction.

[@pauloj.1428]

Been using the brand for quite some time and im lovin it .. doesnt kill ur ear drums. If u want a no sound u can use ur earplugs for isolated sound

[@ellithomas6456]

Lew: "Dare I saa..." I see what you did there 🧐😉

[@oddballartist]

i got a set from that company recently. my best advice for anyone using them turn them on with ear plugs in when its loud with ear plugs in never play it louder then that without the ear plugs in. i am not sure if its from these or other things going on in my life but the tinnitus i have has been a bit worse lately.

[@Sattiden]

Lemme guess .. No bass will not replace you headphones aaaaaaaaaaand Good For podcasts

wondering the same thing, i wish they listed the music they used in the description or sumthin!

Same, scrolling through the comments to see if anyone answered this...

Lew: sees magnets in the pouch... 5 seconds later, Lew: I mean, these headphones are good... R.I.P. Magnets

[@andrewedgar3935]

I have just bought an e-bike to commute to work. When I walk to work I listen to audiobooks and podcasts. So when you said they would be better for that I was like “yep”! So I have purchased some haha

[@HRPhotograph]

mom: what are you doing with that hammer!? me: smashing the like button.

[@Chrzanior]

I bought these to listen to music while I work in earplugs for 8h a day and these was the best spent money ever. Those will let you be "with music" instead of isolating yourself from everyone and asmr in these is just another level

[@gooseyt8843]

I gots a pair of bone conduction headphones, so imma watch this vid with bone conduction headphones

I would like you to test this product I've seen in my cellphone. It's called Sportex™ Bluetooth Earphones. They are asking $26.97 so I wonder if there's a catch here. Would love for you to test them out please. I'm not buying anything until you give it a test!! Thanks!!!
