Customer Ratings & Reviews

Like many people, I've spent a lot of time in online meetings and conference calls. I've tried several different headsets to find the right balance between good audio while listening and a good mic that doesn't make me sound like I am in a coffee can. A coworker suggested AfterShokz, and I immediately went for the OpenComm. It took a couple minutes to get used to the bone-conduction audio, but I love the way I can hear what's going on in the room while I am on a call. And the people at the other end consistently say that my mic sounds great! I've used these almost every day for a year and I can honestly say this is the best headset for Zoom, WebEx, Teams, etc etc. The only "con" is that wearing them for a long time can give you a headache that starts in your temples-- for that reason I suggest taking them off between meetings. Highly recommended!

Use it for work mostly. Does not fall off like my ear buds do. Open ear, lets me hear my surroundings. Noise canceling microphone works well in a slightly noisy environment. Good bluetooth range. Battery charge, last me the whole workday(+9hrs) while steaming.

Great little headset. I like m Aftershoks bone conduction headphones, they work great for me, so when I saw this I knew I had to give it a try for my Teams meetings. They workgreat. Nice clarity and call quality and others say they can hear me just fine. Very lighweight too.

Very sleek and nice fit and finish. Looks to be well made. Does what is says it should do. Just wish it was a little bit louder, but I am hard of hearing. I like the fact that they do not cover my ears when wearing them.

I was looking for comfort, after trying several "in ear" headset models. I can wear this all day with no uncomfortable pressure points or my ears getting sore. The sound is first rate, those at the other end have said it sounds like I'm calling from a land line.

Looks like Best Buy doesn't allow 1/2 stars or I would give this baby a 4.5 stars, but only because I haven't fully tested it yet in all environmental situations and because there is a hefty price, but as my Dad always said, "You get what you pay for son". Other than that, I will say that this is a DEFINITE game changer for me. I have had problems for years finding earbuds or headsets that would fit in my ear, but alas my ears seem to be too unique to keep anything in them successfully. That is where AfterShokz comes in and just "kills it with quality"!! Putting this headset on and not having to put anything in my ears and still having the same (and I would say even better) quality than ones for my ears; I mean what a difference! If anyone is concerned about degredation in sound fear not for AfterShokz has the answer with the OpenComm Bone Conduction Stereo Bluetooth Headset. I couldn't be happier.

I love the AfterShokz Aeropex so much that I bought this for work (and to replace my old Logitech headset H800). Opencomm has the same bone conduction benefits (no ear fatigue or ringing after long use, don't have to take it off to talk to others). Light, easy fit, solid construction, good battery life, and decent mic quality. The letdown was the audio quality and quick operation. Audio quality is noticeably worse than Aeropex. I wish the operation like mute was easier (have to hold down two buttons). Logitech is ahead with UI. Overall a good buy but I hope Aftershokz will improve the bone conduction driver and UI aspects.

I had AfterShokz headset without the dedicated microphone before mainly for riding my bicycle so I could listen to background music or podcast. These as well as my other AfterShokz work really well in providing quality sound even using the bone conductive method which gives you quality sound without covering you ear canal. The transducer sits just front of your ear and works surprising well on sound quality and extremely comfortable. I only upgraded to these for the better microphone pickup for when out got a ride and have to deal with a work call. I also plan on using them for Zoom/FaceTime calls since the battery last much long than my AirPods. Only negative is the cost, but I used a birthday 10% off coupon from B/B and some reward points to bring the cost down some. They don’t fold up to get smaller, but do come with a case and magnetic charge cord. They are very light and you can hardly tell you have them on you.

Pro - Ear free for all day wearing, un-tethered (remote working able to walk to kitchen for another tea or snack, or take a bio-break) Con - Not Enough Better Than Aeropex and cannot overcome poor VoIP Bluetooth implies VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) and to have high quality requires the local router to be optimized (separate) VoIP traffic, otherwise quality will suffer... so that's likely 1-of=2 reasons the OpenComm didn't work for us... I have Aeropex (lighter & sans boom) and quality is slightly better, mainly because I don't run through Avya Commicator (Windows software) dialer/ringer = sucky excuse for a dialer. But to be clear (pun) the boom adds little to the quality of voice transmitted, the customers complained, so this product was returned. I tested both/every-way with this model and my Aeropex and the quality was too poor, or cell-phone-to-cell-phone the quality wasn't improved enough to justify, and we reverted to a $40 wired model... Aeropex has one feature; Multi-Paring, hold-on wait for PAIRING, then press/hold multifunction key and Multi-Paring On, means I can connect to both Windows PC for a call/meeting and also to my phone at the same time, switching as needed from a PC call/meeting to a cell phone call easily (well relatively easy, it helps to know where in the PC meeting software are the Device Settings to force use of the Aeropex vs PC speaker & mic) Yes, my 11+ year old Modem/Router (DOCIS 3.0 prisoner of Spectrum) all in One does not have a VoIP separator feature, so that's where my next purchase will be, I'll watch for a future version of the OpenComm... :)

Well built product, confortable to wear. no earbud pain, sound quality is really good and it is nice to be able to hear what is going around you while listening to music. Bluetooth setup went really well. Love the AfterShock.

Took a while to get use to the vibration of back ground noise when answering a call if the volume is at or near maxed out. Overall, it’s a good headset for what I use it for…..mechanic work. I never have to worry about it falling off my ear when I have to get under a vehicle or tilt my head a certain way. And if you like people checking you out, wearing this will definitely have people looking, lol. I have no problem hearing conversations in mild to normal back ground noise and no one has complained about voice quality on my end (well there’s always somebody, lol). Battery life seems less than advertised, but it gets me though a 8 hr+ day. Not a fan of the charging cable. Still a great purchase for me.

This is my favorite headset because it does not take your ears of the road to other sounds around you i am a truck driver so that is a big plus for me , the only issue i see is the battery life now doesn't last as long as it use to .

I use these primarily for work. These work well with music, video, video conferencing or phone calls. I like the fact that they don't cover the ears allowing to take calls from a separate device without removing this headset.

Great product. Husband loves it! He drives a truck. Even with the windows down, I can hear him plain as day. Great product! He also loves that these don't sit directly in his ear, and his quality of hearing isn't interrupted.

These headphones are surprisingly impressive! I use them for executive coaching phone calls, virtual training, and video meetings. They switch easily from computer to phone so I can use them to listen to music in between. They’re great.

I love the sound, the ease in charging, lasts all day and I'm on Zoom at least 8-9 hrs a day. I recommend this item for professionals. It rests on your ears not in them and not visible with the exception of the mic. LOVE THIS

Sound quality really good. Wish it would fit a little bit more snug. Battery is great, I drive too work out of state once a month for 10 hours so we will see if it last as long as they claim.

These worked great but I ultimately returned them due to Blu-tooth connection issues that were of no fault of this item. I opted for a wireless set of headphones instead for my situation.

Works just as advertised. Phone calls are easily heard and my callers can also hear me without any of the background noise interfering. Extremely comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Would recommend this to a friend.

These are AfterShokz Bone Conduction headphones are the best. They connected to my laptop within seconds and the sound and clarity are phenomenal for my Teams meetings and Zoom calls. I definitely recommend this product.
