AtopskinsBone Conduction Headphones, IPX8 Waterproof Swimming Bone Conduction Headphones Wireless Bluetooth 5.3 Underwater Headphones, Comes with 32 GB MP3 Player for Running Earphones (Orange)

This is my first experience with bone conduction headphones - that's headphones that are not worn either over or in the ear, but instead press against the side of the head just in front of the ears (see picture) and you hear the sound not via actual sound travelling into your ear, but via vibration being 'conducted' into your ear through your bones.It's an interesting concept, because:-1. it stops you having the discomfort of having things stuck in your ears and2. as your erars remain open, you can still hear normal sounds as well.Basically the music is just 'added into' everything you would normally hear - so more-or-less the absolute opposite end of the scale to sound cancelling headphones.This means, among other things, you can wear them while out walking and still hear 'important noise' like approaching vehicles.Of course the down side is that they would be really bad in a noisy environment.In terms of the perceived sound quality - excellent. It's always a good test of sound quality to listen to piano music, piano music is particularly effective at displaying distortion. As I write this I'm listening to Beethoven's Piano Sonata number 17 - the 'Tempest' sonata - and I have absolutely no complaints at all.Superb - and thoroughly recommended to any who understand the concept of bone conduction and wish to benefit from it.

I'm a committed audiophile, so I've had a lot of head/earphones over the years, some expensive (Bose/AKG etc) and some from brands you've probably never heard of. I've got earbuds, over-ear, and headband head/earphones some wireless, and some wired but I've never had bone conduction earphones before.At first the sensation was a bit odd, but I got used to them pretty quickly. The way they hook onto my ears is very secure, much more so than earbuds or headphones which I really like, and it stops my ears getting sweaty especially in warm weather when I'm running or working out. Because they sit outside the ear and not over/in my ears I can also hear outside noises which I really appreciate.They're lightweight, comfortable, easy to use and give decent sound quality, though the quality does suffer at high volume, or on tracks with heavy bass. The battery last a few hours and charges fairly quickly, I wish the charging cable was a bit longer, but that's a minor issue. I love that the headphones are waterproof so I can use them while swimming which is very handy, and the charging is fine via magnetic contacts so they're completely sealed from any moisture.They paired with my phone really quickly and having the option of using a micro SD card is a really useful feature. The control buttons are easy to find and use too so I'm not faffing about trying to work out the controls.Overall I think these are good quality, thoughtfully designed and easy to use. I wish the battery life was a bit longer, but as they're so lightweight it's to be expected that they run down faster than other types of wireless headphones. I'd recommend them, especially for swimmers. 4*

I was surprised how light weight these headphones are. Pairing with my mobile phone was easy.I tested them with music from my phone and from a the built in 32GB memory, which is useful as Bluetooth doesn’t work underwater. The sound quality is very good.They’ll make going up and down the pool much more interesting.

Wasn't sure what to expect, having never used this type of headphones.But the sound is good , not in anyway noise cancelling so you're still aware of your surroundings and due to the style there not going to fall off !Depending on what and how you've downloaded the music , some heavy bass can cause a slight vibration if played at full whack ,but in general good clear sound.I'm not sure I'd personally "swim" in them but they certainly look well made and sealed🌧️

These are excellent for swimming. The lightest headphones l have ever encountered. I ordered these for my son who is an avid swimmer both in the sea and pool. He is so impressed and said they took less than a couple of minutes to pair with his phone. Makes a pleasurable swim even more enjoyable and for the money these are an absolute bargain.Really pleased as he has been looking to get some of these headphones for a while and the ones he has been looking at were three times the price so a recommended purchase.
