Wireless Bone Conduction Headphones, Open-Ear Design, Black

I found nearly the same for 50% of the price. Regarding the benefits from using this system, it is GREAT. It works with plenty of devices

**UPDATE** The device has lasted 2 months, and is now starting to fail. It lights up like it is charging and within 10 seconds tells me it’s fully charged. However it is not charged. It keeps the same amount of minimal charge, and dies within 5 min of use. All my devices before will be completely out of commission after a few weeks. ** Original Review ** This is my third set of open ear/bone conduction sets I’ve tried and by far my favorite. It has lasted the longest (6 weeks), has the best battery life (three days of play), withstands the sauna longer than my phone (hhhhwwhat?!), and can pickup the blue tooth from my phone the best, (better than some of my other normal earbuds) and is easy to operate. I’m sad to rate it four stars because the fit - I just don’t like it as much as my other sets. It doesn’t fall off, but it’s super loose (comparatively speaking). It’s also a bit heavier so it rides my ears a little more than the others. I can still work out with it - run, jump, and climb without an issue, but I do have to turn it up a bit, or wear a headband to get a firmer contact in order to hear the sound. It does come with some sort of rubber device that you can use to tighten the band… but it wasn’t listed on the instructions/user manual. I am super pleased I don’t have to charge it every night, and I can wear it in the sauna after a workout. One of the previous sets which were truly water proof only lasted a few weeks before the charger stopped working (unless you twisted the headset just so), and stopped working completely after two months; and the second set wasn’t water proof and could not hold a charge after a month. The quality of the sound is amazeballs, and I can hear the background conversations …. I am also impressed with the mic function - which is more than some of the other headsets I have had. This headset also doesn’t have the tickling sensation at the higher volume settings. Definite improvement from the first one I had. This device also has my favorite operational buttons - three in a row distinctly separate (vol up/power/vol down). Fun fact: I am terrible at the buds/devices with one button that you have to tap, or hold, or double tap, or hold for five to do different things…. Sometimes I miss the contact surface, so I’m having to tap more times or over tapping the device. I have accidentally hung up on someone or skipped to the next song/chapter when I was trying to change the volume. So yay for ease of operations!

I have been using these for a week and so far am impressed with the quality and value of these. They fit easily over my ears and don't cause pain even after a few hours of wear. The sound quality is nearly as good as over-the-ear and in-ear headphones, and calls are clear. The reported audio quality when on the phone is "fine" from others, and is no worse than using your phone through your car speakers. I've only had to charge them once and use them for several hours each day. I also noticed that these can be connected to more than one device at once, and they seem to seamlessly switch from my laptop to my phone without effort on my part. The buttons make sense to turn on and off and adjust volume easily. All in all, I am incredibly happy with this purchase and hope they hold up over time.

This bone conducting headset was easy to set up and start using. First, I located the USB port and charged the headset. Second, I powered on the headset by pressing the center orange button for 3 seconds. Third, I went to the Bluetooth setting on my phone to pair the device, MRTKY-31, I believe it said. Fourth, I played music from a phone app. It took only a few minutes from powering on to pairing. The sound quality is better than my wireless earbuds. It also has a more modern charging cable than my earbuds. What I like best is the ability to wear these while biking or even leaning forward during workouts for pushups or planks without losing them. Separate earbuds invariably fall out--not this set. It wraps over both ears and fits close to the skull. The white and orange make the visibility quite easy. They stand out on dark surfaces, making this hard to lose. I don't yet know how long it holds a charge. If it's at least 120 minutes, I'm all set!

Send them your money. Put a soundtrack in your life. Sound quality is good for both the money spent and the fact that it is “bone conducting”. Don’t expect an audiophile experience. But, an audiophile experience is not what this device is for. I bought this because I sail… and I could not afford to drop earbuds overboard, have wires hang up on things… and I need to be able to hear what is going on around me. This has been not only is great for sailing but also anytime that I want to listen to some tunes or a podcast (and I can’t listen to a HiFi system, use earbuds, corded headphones or need to keep an ear out while still being tuned in). I have an extra large hat size and they fit great. Now the nature of the bone conducting tech means that when you chew, move your jaw or head… sometimes the device departs contact. However a small price to pay for what it can do. If you lay down (face up) with these on, the band in the back will push the “speakers” off your head. The trick here is to flip them around and put the band on your forehead. I can wear them with my glasses and they sometimes interfere as they are vying for the same piece of real estate around my ear. Wearing both glasses and the headphones seems to decrease comfortable wearing duration. Still worth it. If I am also wearing a baseball cap with glasses and the device, it complicates it more. Still worth it. Over all comfort is good. Battery life is very good. From a fresh charge I have never had it die during a listening session… as much as 5 hours. Bluetooth connects easily and has good range. Controls are both simple and effective. Buttons have a positive click and you know when you have depressed them. Been using them primarily with my phone and call quality is good. People on the other end of the call can not tell the difference. Also connects to my computer with no problems. This has been the best money that I have spent in a long time. You don’t have much to lose… as the price is very reasonable.
