thanks for including those audio samples! that really helped me decide 😊

man u r by far the best making these reViews zingly perfect video

Thanks Andy for the great and detailed review, you really inspired us a lot with your perspective. 😀

Couldn't understand why you kept turning your head in the traffic test until I realized you're making sure you get the sound from your voice and outside noises from multiple angles. Love when reviewers actually take the time to do proper details like that. 👍

An important consideration concerning the microphone quality: while the initial purpose of the Shokz headphones is exercise I've been meeting more and more Management/Sales/Self-employed people who use them as their main communication tool for calls/meetings as it allows them to keep them on all the time and still be able to communicate face to face due to their ears not being blocked. As such, it might not be a bad idea to consider this use case for future comparisons as I'm noticing it become more and more common.

Great comparisons and thanks for taking the time to produce and share with everyone. Great job!!!

Hi Andy Wow, while watching the different videos You‘ve made, I always ask myself: Where did Andy learn all that professional behavior? Did he learn it at his place of employment? Not to forget, the special manner in which You record Your videos. Last but not least, the proper share of humor. UNIQUE & INCOMPARABLE

Thank you for your detailed review! Saved me a bunch of cash. Vibrating against skin is a definite no for me; and the sound leakage in an office is deal breaker. Thank you for covering those two items in your review! That was very helpful for my decision.

I use a pair of Shokz now for 5 years, looking at a new pair. Shokz does offer a swimmers version now. This was a great review on sound quality. I have gotten many compliments about good sound on calls using Teams and noise cancelation. Looking at getting another pair.

Incredible effort in the production. I see everyone at work with these on. I guess management doesn’t mind it. Of course until I purchase some and wear them once

Hi Andy, Thank you for making this video for undecided sports lovers, swimming is my favorite so I purchased Naenka🙌

Thank you for the tests I was about to get one but the mic quality on all of them changed my mind

this is the best review for any product I've ever watched on KZfaq

Thank you for another excellent comparison, Andy! 👍

Nice video. I think Openrun Pro is very good, I have one myself. Used at home, it performs well, with excellent sound quality and wearing experience. But its low waterproof level limits its usage scenarios. So, I bought a Wissonly Hi Runner, which is IPX8 waterproof and has two playback modes(Bluetooth and MP3 mode). This allows it to be used in many scenarios, such as running, swimming, surfing, hiking, etc. Whether you have a phone or not, you can use it to listen to music.

Thank you for the non-biased review, I was about to buy the Shoks openrun pros before watching your video, I decided to go with the Haylou's instead due to the better price and the higher ip rating because I sweat a lot.

Had the Haylou BC01 for 18+ months. I practically live with them on. Incredibly good sound for movies and spoken media and very acceptable for music. Occasional pop at high volume but all in all very happy. My only 2 complaints is that I wish the battery life was longer, 8 hours is optimistic, probably 4-5 with constant use at med-high volume. The other complaint is call quality, in particular during FaceTime it’s really quite bad. They can’t be operated well with loud equipment (mower/vacuum/power tools) unless you opt for using the included earplugs, but the resulting sound of purely conduction is very bass focused and loses all brightness from high tones, so audio quality is very compromised. Would recommend them to anyone but always checking for new model with improved battery life. I made the choice to also purchase multiple charge cables and have them throughout my home.

Great review. I am on my third set of Shokz, and like them. The two negatives are likely the same on all models. First, that strap behind the neck/head is a pain in the car or on the couch. If they could somehow solve that, maybe through a range of sizes, that would be great. The second thing is high wind on the road bike. I have tried a lot of things. absolutely nothing works in 25 mph wind. In fact i was amazed at how loud a test with just foam ear plugs in was. Apparently the wind hits the devices and makes them into a speaker/amplifier of the wind. Which ones can be programed to have a different sound profile from a hearing aid test profile, or to function as hearing aids in microphone amplifier mode for moderate hearing loss?

A superbly presented analysis. Much appreciated and now a subscriber.

Andy, 5-star review! While wearing my hoodie snugly, I've noticed an improvement in bass... I ended up buying winter ear-cups/bags and, woo hoo!! Inexpensive and worth a try, they may even help to get you out in colder weather to review "my" G7 headset :)

Just needed to know which had the best bass and magnetic charging. All the rest was real good too. Thanks and great job on this video. Not many can actually give a real product assessment

Thank you. It's good to see reviews of someone trying the products... and this help me choose.

Thanks for the break down on the different brands!

Thanks for the review, I have been using shockz pro for 2 years and I am greatly satisfied . I use for sports and business and have not complaints .

As always, great video! I was wonder which one could be better for my walks while catching some Pokemons, you helped me a lot with this! 🙌🏼

Good review. Thanks. It is good to see a comparing table too.

Thanks for replying 🙂 your probably right I bought on temu so is cheap but does the job to get a good idea if you want and will use. 😊I've just found a Philips set for 47 which I think is a great price. 👍

On a debate which one to select after a dead-without-reason Aeropex - incredible review with almost scientific standards! Thank sincerely

I just found you in the "Best Sport Earbuds" video, and I absolutely love all of your videos! I don't have a lot of offer, but if you have a patreon or something, I would love to support you the best I can

The TechnicSys SEAHORSE Naneka is the best I have tried. Thank you.

Thank you, a very good review that helped me to decide what to buy.

Thanks for the review. I’m training for my first ironman and gotta get something to make the swim more exciting!

What an excellent review. Thank you very much!!

OpenRun Pro is the only one that connects to two phones at the same time........best for those who have a work phone and personal phone and desire a dual connection.

I use the Openrun Pro myself as an overnight BHT in a hospital. It's excellent in the quiet environment where I need to keep my hearing free to listen for my patients. One minor con that is only bad in a niche case (as no one in any normal circumstance would use it for gaming) but I've found a few pc games that try interacting with the microphone as the headphones and totally mess up the audio.

So getting the shokz openrun pro for under a 100 US dollars is an amazing deal. GREAT I don’t feel bad for order this set now.

good comparison, pretty useful, thank you!

Great review and comparison, appreciate it!

Thanks for your extensive review sir appreciate you😊

Bro...those mics were all terrible. What the....thanks for the review might not be getting these after all.

Terbaik memang abang andy

Finally got a chance to try the Haylou for myself. I was surprised.. I heard no sparkle along with the missing bass. I got virtually nothn' but mids... and the eye-crossing soundstage like the Shokz... I guess our ears ARE different :)

Very nicely done !

Thank you, very thorough reviews. (subscribed & like)

Nice job . Im looking for a pair my wife can use. I bought the JBL Sports but It irritates her inner ear after a while . She has a audio processing disorder and Im hoping bone conduction will be a good fit . I was going for the Shokz Pro until I saw your video . I think she would rather have no vibration. So I probably give the Haylous a try . She's not a bells and whistles person and neither will she spend this amount of money on herself but I want to have what's best her. Me on the other hand, I'm similar but I prefer wired /wireless headphones . I have to use hook over the ear or they will just fall out. Do you know how any of these do with the drop test? A lot of times I have them resting around my neck and when the dress shirt comes off, I hear a noise on the floor .😮 It happens more than I want . I imagine these will be more snug around my neck but I was curious . Thanks for your input and thank you for videos.

How does the vibration compare as i tried open run and found it distracting?

best reviews channel!

Can you recommend some earbuds for bedtime audiobook listening? Needs to sound good and most of all, have as little static noise as possible. ANC would be a plus, but not required. Don't like stem style. Budget friendly preferred.

Really well done. Thank you!

The only phone call worthy headset appears to be openrunner according to your tests. The others can only be considered functional in quite a different category such as headphones.

Great review thank you

Good review!

Thank you for the review Andy. I’m looking to buy a pair for swimming. Which one would you recommend since the Naenka is no longer available? Thank you!

Good video but I only came here for mic comparisons. A better comparison would have been inside a really loud big truck, and included other OpenComm-esc variants.

Great info and video, thank you

Usefull. Thanks!!!

Great complete review.

This was very useful. Köszi!

I honeslty work in a quiet environment and i listen to metalcore music like the band 'War of Ages'. And i just want a good pair of bone conducting headphones that keep the sound pretty good. What do you think?

Loved my OpenCom Pro's for WFH. I purchased the OpenRun Pros for everyday use! The boom mic on the OpenCom has exellent AVC, which makes it great for WFH phone and virtual meetings.

Does anyone know if any of these can be used to amplify ambient noise like the Walker brand variant does?

Andy, when anyone asks be about my headsets, I share your channel. I do want to ask for clarification regarding your comments about sound leakage. I agree that volume matching between sets resembles art. You mentioned placement on ears makes a difference. Isn't leakage actually sound that bystanders can hear...Do you use a rubber bust for testing :) ?

I’m looking for the best microphone and best noise cancelling. What do u recommend?

The Mojawa sound great and I was really sold on them 100% except for the dealbreaker, the touch volume control. Too bad!

I listened to your whole video with haylou.

Great comparison again Andy, Im wondering what you would think of a budget set of "Air" conduction. Let me kow what you think of this model. "Sports Earphones Truefree F1 Open-Ear Bluetooth Headphones with ENC Noise-Cancellation Mic Air Conduction Wireless Headset for Workouts and Running, 11 Hours of Music, with Headband" Cheers. P.S. Beautiful production value, OMG.

Good Review!!!

Great video. Man, trying to pinpoint your accent. Where from?

It is a bit strange, I have h bc01 , and indoor mic quality sounds like significant better

Thanks for the comparison. How is the weight distributed for the swimming one? Is it going to be heavier over time compared to the others when not used during swimming?

I would love to see a review done for the normal person who had hair that may not be pulled up for athletic purposes. I have long hair and am concerned about how sticky they will be and grabbing my hair to put on and off as well as the hair causing swishing noise because it grazes the earphones. Please.

Great video!

I love my opencomm2 for its long battery life. Considering open run to use while sleeping because there is no boom mic to break

Should have saved the URL but saw Andy in a video ad for some bone conduction earphones. He was exercising while wearing the earphones. Hopefully, the creator has his permission to use his likeness.

Hi I do have a pair to try out only costing me£6 but thinking of upgrading now so for me I think mojo2 or haylou??? Only use when going out and about shopping etc. Do you think I'm right in my choice sir thanks😊

Need to have a water proof phone as well when swimming?

Thank you so much!

HI. AN EXTREMELY WELL CONDUCTED & PRESENTED VIDEO. IF YOU KEEP THIS UP YOU ARE BOUND TO GET MANY MORE SUBSCIBERS. GOOD LUCK 😊. SO IT’S THE HAYLOU FOR ME..🎉

Do any of these stand out as being best at blocking out wind noise? For reference I won't be listening to any music. I will be wearing ear plugs and using these to hear people talking.

Please guide me, For audio call, music and virtual meeting.. which one recommend?

Thank you!

Can you tell something about bone conduction headphones from PHILIPS? For example, Philips AA6606

How about battery when battery dri can't change why?

So, what do you mean vibration? Never used one before dont know specifically what it means

Have you tried any for downhill skiing with goggles and helmet?

Which microphone sounds the best while riding a bicycle fast

Can you let me know which one is best for wearing laying down or sleeping.

What about phone call quality?

Is there any set that can b used for swimming that can b play forward and rewind on the same track ? I cant understand why they dont bring that function

Do you know of any WIRED bone conduction headphones?

Cheers Mate

I am very sad, because of you I bought two times this headphones. And the 2 times it had been defectfull. Play and pause button doesn't work after 1month

top review

Then it was necessary to compare shokz: Open run, swim

I have a pair of Aeropex and they're a decent product. The audio quality isn't brilliant but it's a lot better than I expected and I'm an audiophile. I have to say Shokz customer support js pretty awful though. I have an minor issue with mine and they just don't respond to emails.

i just hate putting earbuds in the ear hole

Once we are unpaired from a phone you will not able to paired again.

Will insurance pay for the unit. My wife is death in one ear.

open run pro is junk sounds like old am radio. waste of money do not buy

S+ Bone Conduction Bluetooth Headset (Enjoy Life), will not charge and they are no good coming from Amazzon; it the worst deal ever made, they don't charge
