Aftershokz Bone Conduction Trekz Titanium Headphones Hearable
The lightweight and comfortable Trekz Titanium wireless stereo headphones are the safest alternative to traditional sport headphones and earbuds. Bone conduction technology, an open ear design and a suite of convenient features deliver premium music play and crystal clear calling without compromise. Designed with athletes in mind, Trekz Titanium are sweatproof, secure, and will allow you to hear your surroundings - no matter where life takes you. Durably designed to withstand high-impact activities, these headphones will power through daily sweat sessions and wicked weather. A nanotechnology coating and watertight rubber gaskets repel sweat and moisture from the inside out. Natural sound leakage is a common drawback found with most headphones and earbuds, especially at high volumes. LeakSlayer was designed to release sound generated by the transducers in order to cancel sound generated by the housing, significantly reducing leakage, even when compared to traditional headphones and earbuds. Instead of speakers that cover or nest inside your ears, AfterShokz transmits audio via a pair of transducers that rest on your cheekbones, leaving your ears uncovered and canals unblocked. Many people experience discomfort from headphones and earbuds — OpenFit™ eliminates common irritations through an unrivaled open ear design that offers supreme comfort, even during long-term use. Safety is another key benefit of our design — with nothing blocking or plugging your ears, maximum situational awareness is achieved. The headband wraps around the back, low enough to clear most protective helmets commonly used during activities such as cycling, skating and skiing. Trekz Titanium will offer reliable connectivity within a wireless range of 33 ft (10m).
Reviews
Personally I have to say open ear headphone are underated and these headphones really need to be tried out to be believed. It feels a bit unusual at first hearing through your cheekbones, but your ears aren't blocked with anything and they feel surprisingly light and comfortable, wrapped around the back of your head.
It sits quite tight against your head but it means you get to hear the sounds transmitted clearly while also hearing other sounds going on around you, which I have found works great when out running and cycling. It does move a little when doing exercise which is something to be aware of. You do feel the vibrations as well as the sound but this is also something you get used to. The volume control on the side is very handy as well as the button to the left to play and pause audio streaming. I also like that you can pair it with multiple devices too.
