ANCwear Running Headphones with Native Voice Assistant, Wireless Running Bluetooth Headphones with Mic, Sweatproof Open Ear Headset for Sports, Running, Cycling, Hiking, Driving（Black）

I bought these to try 'bone conduction' headphone technology. I didn't want to go with an expensive brand so I got these as a kind of 'proof of concept' to see if the technology would work for me. Summary: it does, remarkably well imo. These headphones are far more comfortable to wear than over ear or in-the-ear models, and since your ear opening is uncovered you can hear sounds around you and they feel much safer to wear in the street because your situational awareness is not compromised. They were easy to connect to my devices via bluetooth and they have worked smoothly for phone calls. They are perfect for podcasts and audiobooks. Listening to music is also fine but not quite the same quality as a good pair of overear headphones. I use them very happily for 'music on the move' but my overears for armchair listening. But, again, they are absolutely remarkable for the price. Highly recommended.

Good headphones that rest on your ears and do not block your ears. You can hear the surrounding noises without the music quality being affected. There is no noise cancellation function as that is not the purpose of these headphones. Battery life is good but could be better.The only con of this headphone is that it uses it own proprietary charging cable, which for me stopped working after 5 months. I got in touch with the manufacturer who sent out a replacement headphone with a new charging cable included. So I cannot fault customer services but would have been better to use USB-C rather than pins.

OK, I have used inner ear headsets with limited success,so I looked for alternative idea's and found these. I love the fact that I can listen to my music but still be able to hear things around me.Also not inside the ear means less discomfort.Still able to wear my glasses and use the headset.You can't lay your head back as the head band will push up on the ears, causing loss of clear sound.The sound is not as loud as regular headsets, but I can live with it. The sound is good and clear I mainly use them for viewing u tube or audio books.Over all if you like I want something diffrent then give it a go.

These had been great for 10 months until the first pair completely stopped holding it's charge, switchingoff within a few minutes. ANC replied to my complaint about the fault and replaced them in May but the replacement no longer has volume control and when I contacted ANC via their chat and email there has been no response. Very disappointed as they were good until they failed

Techy Bone Headphones - Meh.UserProduct review, bone conducting headphones, amazing tech but it only lasted 7 monthsChatGPTProduct Review: Bone Conducting HeadphonesRating: ★★★☆☆ (3/5)I recently purchased a pair of bone conducting headphones, and I must say, the technology behind them is truly amazing. Being able to hear my music while still being aware of my surroundings was a game-changer. However, my excitement was short-lived as the headphones stopped working properly after just 7 months of use.The Good:The bone conducting technology used in these headphones is impressive. It allows sound to be transmitted through the bones of the skull, leaving the ears open to hear ambient noise. This feature is perfect for outdoor activities like running or cycling, where awareness of the environment is crucial for safety.The sound quality was surprisingly good, considering the unique design. The bass was decent, and the overall audio clarity was satisfactory for most of my music genres.The fit of the headphones was comfortable, and they stayed in place even during vigorous workouts. They were also lightweight, making them convenient to wear for extended periods without discomfort.The Bad:Despite the initial excitement, I was quite disappointed with the durability of these headphones. After just 7 months, they started experiencing issues. The sound became distorted, and there were occasional connectivity problems, then it died completely. I tried reaching out to customer services but the website doesn't exist anymore.The battery life was average, lasting about 5-6 hours, which might not be sufficient for some users who require longer playtime on a single charge.The design of the headphones also had its drawbacks. Since they rest on the cheekbones, wearing them with sunglasses or certain types of hats could be uncomfortable or awkward.Conclusion:While the technology behind these bone conducting headphones is truly innovative and initially provided a fantastic listening experience, I can't overlook the fact that they failed to last beyond 7 months of use. For the premium price I paid, I expected better durability and customer support.If you're willing to take a chance on the unique bone conducting technology and don't mind the potential risk of durability issues, these headphones might be worth considering. However, I would advise caution and recommend researching other options with better track records in terms of reliability and customer satisfaction.

I've bought a few sets of both bluetooth and wired headphones in the last few years as I do a lot of walking. These are by far the best and the best value. My last pair were earbuds by a leading manufacturer where the bluetooth signal would occasionally cut out intermittently in certain areas I walk - these never do. Obviously you don't have to worry about these falling off as occasionally would happen with earbuds even just while walking. With other earphones I had been having some issues with my ears feeling blocked the next day after having phones in for a long time. No such problem with these as they sit slightly in front of the ear. Sound quality is really good and they charge relatively quickly and hold their charge well.
