Customer Ratings & Reviews

I ability to listen to an audiobook or music without appearing unavailable to the people around you or disconnecting from other people in the room, is absolutely priceless. The music quality is excellence, even if not as rich or as immersive as with traditional headphones/earbuds. The ability to have a phone conversation in a normal voice and be aware of your surroundings, but have a reasonable noise cancelling mic is priceless. The ability to not have the earbuds fall out of your ear or sweat under the earphone muffs is priceless. Like your own little boom box, without being a selfish jerk and disturbing the people around you.

Excellent sound quality, lightweight. I sometimes forget I have it on. Very convenient to be able to use with my phone since I have been working from home.

As I started working from home I needed a good wireless headset that would allow me to interact with other things going on in my home while still being available to take calls. This headset is unique in that you can still interact with your surroundings while monitoring for phone calls. My only gripe is that instead of just coming up as a stereo headset, it appears as two different devices in windows, one device for communication, and one for stereo music. Because of this my work software doesn't always play nice with it, but I've made it work.

I have issues with only one working ear, but I'm very used to using bone conduction devices. I found that this one is excellent for what I wanted to use it for, which is 90% of making phone calls and 10% music. I do find that the music quality is not the greatest, but that is not a big issue for me. Don't turn these headphones all the way up or you will get a lot of buzzing against your head from the conduction speakers. The boom microphone seems to work very well and I've not had any complaints.

A bit about my intended use case for this - back when the pandemic started, my company went 100% remote with a heavy reliance on virtual meeting technologies. The result is that now I easily spend half my day on conference calls. Since then, I’ve gone through a number of my Bluetooth headsets trying to find the one that works “just right” - as of late it has been a fitness headset by LG that has earbuds. It can get uncomfortable after a few hours and completely block out what is going on around me, so I’ve resorted to using one earbud at a time and alternating ears throughout the day. The premise of not having anything of that all day was something I wanted to get behind. I had some knowledge of AfterShokz from review videos online, thought that having a headset with an actual mic would be better than my current headset, and decided to give it a go. After using it for a few days, I feel like I can provide some of the hits and misses for the headset. True to form, I can wear this for a large portion of the day and am not in pain from it. It’s not lightweight enough that I can say I forget I’m wearing it, but it is comfortable nonetheless. The headset is also tight enough that you can do normal day-to-day activities and not have to worry about it falling out of position. The headset can connect to my computer and my phone with relative ease and seems to have no problem bouncing between the two as needed. For reasons I’ll get into soon however, I generally prefer it being connected to my phone. Battery life is great; I’ve been on (what feels like) over 12 hours of calls and it’s just reporting that the battery is at “medium.” I’m not a huge fan of the proprietary charging cable - it looks to be a result of the headset being water-resistant, but I’d rather have either a micro-USB or a USB C port over water resistance. Audio quality is okay, if a bit hollow and lacking bass - this headset is best suited for voice, not music. The sound quality is expected from what I can understand; the way it works is by vibrating your cheekbones thus causing your eardrums to interpret sound. It is not as high fidelity, but it works. With that said, the vibration is not really noticeable unless you have the volume set to a higher level. The microphone is loud and clear and my team has certainly said I sound better than normal on calls. Some issues I’ve found thus far: Related to the design, there are several issues with the mechanism of operation. When you are wearing the headset, facial expressions suddenly matter far more - smiling and other facial expressions can alter the sound you hear, even to the point of you not being able to hear it at all. This happens due to it changing its contact with your cheekbone - the only way to avoid it would be making the headset tighter and thus making it more difficult to wear all day. No changes to my overall rating for the device being what it is. The one thing that causes my taste to sour on this headset is how well it functions with computers as a video chat headset. For the large majority of cases, a call run via a computer will have a much higher audio fidelity than a standard phone call; meaning if at all possible, I prefer to have my audio run through a computer. The problem here is that the current firmware of the device doesn’t seem to recognize the headset is being used within the context of a video conference. This recognition is critical as the volume buttons only function when the headset thinks it is in a call. For all other conditions, they are recognized as a button to determine the battery status. When in a video conference, if I want to quickly turn down the volume, I now need to do it on my computer, instead of just quickly reaching up to my neck to change the volume. Overall, as a voice-only headset, I think this is a pretty compelling offer. I enjoy the ability to hear my environment and the lack of pain caused by having things in my ear all day. It is superior in comfort to a large number of similar headsets in the market, with good enough audio for the purpose. That said, I do wish it functioned better with computer-based audio calls.

Very good product if you make a lot of calls throughout the day. Never a complaint using the noise cancelling mic, and the sound is perfect for phone conversations. Only losing 1 star because you can notice a difference in lack of bass response if you listen to music, but that's not why you purchase this. Controls are easy to learn and pairing either via BT or NFC is seamless. Unfortunately, you can only pair and use it with 1 device at a time. The other drawback is the price since its at the higher end of their product line.

Love this headset. Normal ones give me headaches and squish my head but these are great. They’re a little big in the back but it’s better than it being too small

Great sound and very comfortable. Love the boom microphone as it picks up my voice and gives me the feel that I am actually talking to someone versus just talking to the air.

Best headsets ever! Great for listening to music, long lasting battery for conference calls. I use it all day long and I charged it every other day. Excellent product!

Great comfortable headset with strong battery life when fully charged. People have commented on crystal clear i sound on conference zoom calls.

Absolutely the most comfortable and best performing headset period. Highly recommend. Noise canceling mic works even in the noisiest environments. None better!

The are pretty comfortable the sound quality is good but like it because it’s not in your ears and I can still hear what’s going on around me

Amazing headphones. Great quality. Don't even realize you're wearing them. Crisp, clear sound for voice input and output. Best headphones and totally worth the money.

One of the best of this type of device that I have ever owned great sound quality excellent mic pick up and extremely comfortable to wear all day!

Great for working from home! Extremely comfortable to wear and still be aware of your surroundings noise cancelling for the mic works good .

Always got headached with the ear peice and this one sitting on outside doesnt do that , i love it ! The battery last for atleast 2 days.

These are definitely worth the cost. They have a very long range, which means I can walk anywhere in my house and still be fully connected and not break up. They also have a really great battery life. Only 2 small things keep them from 5 stars - one is that switching between PC/laptop and phone is a hassle (you must actively disconnect from one then actively connect the other) and it would be really great if they could be adjusted for a smaller head. Besides those 2 minor things, these are fantastic.

I bought these for my wife and she loves them. They are very comfortable and very clear sounding. Mic works great as well.

Can you fall in love with a headset? I have with this one. I can walk around and hear all that is going on, wear it all day, dictate my documents using Dragon or Microsoft and talk and hear calls on my phone, Zoom, Teams. If I want to mute I just move the boom up. In wind, it appears to do well based on comments from people on the other side of the communication. In zoom & Teams calls same comments. Great clarity on my end. The set is All Day Comfortable" I can wear it all day, without getting a sore ear or headache. Definately worth the price.

Love the comfort, bone conduction works! Can wear all day, great battery life. Unfortunately it uses a proprietary charger. Have even worn to gym!
