> 3 dayI tried these with my Garmin forerunner 645 music. Even while Im walking the connection drops about every ten seconds. The companys next model down keeps a connection while Im running, and if it does drop I can pinpoint the reason. If you need an active headset, but the Air. If you need better sound, and youre sedintary, these might work. But there are better headphones available for sedintary use.

> 3 dayI bought a pair of the solar red aeropex not really expecting much from them. Oh boy was I wrong. The headphones were great and even alleviate some of the issues I had from using traditional headphones. The quality was amazing and user friendliness was awesome. However, the flexible design is not great. It is awesome that the design allows for a one size fits all approach but the lack of a hard case leaves the headphones fairly vulnerable when not in use. Mine broke will in the rubber pouch that came with them. One of the ear loops snapped internally and lost sound for that side as the headphones no longer held onto my head. Definitely would recommend them for someone who is in a relatively peaceful environment, but not for sports or any excessive activity.

> 3 dayThey don’t go over your ears so you can hear what’s going on around you, however it does not affect the quality of sound at all.

> 3 dayI got these headphones for Christmas. They are the best headphones Ive ever had! I use them for all of my long distance runs. They allow me to hear my surroundings while still listening to music and podcasts. Theyre also great for mowing since you can wear ear plugs while still listening to music at a safe volume. Theyre also great since you can pair to two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. I have them paired to my phone and my work laptop so I can take phone calls and Skype calls without having to switch devices.

06-06-2025Bone conducting sounds very exotic but its a little more usual than you might think. To get an idea: Grab a pair of decent on-ear headphones, place them on your temples so your ears are uncovered, and turn up the volume a bit. This is pretty much what Aftershokz sound and feels like. It makes you realize there is a bone conducting component to regular headphones. Similarly, there is still an aural component to these - if you have them sitting on a desk or hanging up, you can still hear them audibly over the air. For the price youre paying, youre getting a new usage experience rather than sound quality. Here are some examples: * Actual wet performance. Lots of headphones now have some kind of IPxx rating. While they arent damaged by water, that doesnt mean they *work* when wet. These do. You can listen to audio while dunking your head under the shower. Maybe thats not something youre going to do, but it means rain and sweat wont drown it out. Thats something Ive had happen plenty. * Isolation when you want it. ANC and a good seal are fine but they dont beat wearing actual earplugs IMO. I can put in some earplugs and still listen to a podcast while vacuuming my car or something - and I dont have to crank the volume. I think thats impressive. Still, some people cant do earplugs - OK, ANC is better for you. * Awareness when you want it. Things that need your attention can get it. That doesnt mean you can understand everything you hear. The effect is like having two people talk directly to you at the same time - hard to understand even one of them, and usually the loudest speaker wins. But youre aware at least. Those differences were pros in my opinion. Other pros: Long battery life, great power connector. Pretty good fit (for me - wife disagrees) as the device is small and stays firmly on my head. Also a pretty good mic set up - nobody has complained when Ive used these, unlike my other wireless headphones. Still, for best quality, wired is still the way to go. Cons are not insignificant: * Less audio quality for the money, to be sure. If you want audiophile equipment, move along. These cant provide it. If you just listen to podcasts and place phone calls, I think its A-OK. Also pretty good for providing background music while working. Admittedly, though Im not a music person, this is a little hard to get past. * Personally I hate the controls. On/off, volume, and pause are fine. Beyond that, Im struggling. My cheap plantronics phones are better here. * Bluetooth connectivity. I know Bluetooth isnt perfect and Windows 10 BT experience in particular leaves much to be desired. But comparing these to a cheap pair of plantronics phones, I expected more. The cheap pair connects faster, switches devices significantly quicker and both without as much manual intervention. This is personally my greatest point of dissatisfaction, as the Aeropex are five times the price. I really hope this thing can receive firmware updates to improve connection behavior. I gave these a try for 6 weeks and have decided to keep them, despite my reservations. It came down to the fact that, even with the shortcomings, I get a LOT of use out of them. Enough that I dont feel like rolling the dice on another product for now.
