Game-changer for Deaf/HOH music enjoyers!
Are you d/Deaf or hard of hearing? Do you wear hearing aids that don't have great music streaming quality, and you can't wear earbuds with them? My friends, this is the solution.I had tried a bone conduction walkie-talkie headset at a previous job and it had been a pretty good upgrade compared to the on-ear headset that broke my receiver wire and certainly did not help the asymmetry of my hearing loss. So I was pretty hopeful that a bone conduction Bluetooth headset would work, now that I'm in a role where everyone's listening to music all the time but I still need my hearing aids on.First thing I have to say: PEOPLE AROUND YOU **CAN** HEAR THIS. I tested it with two family members with great hearing and they heard it well enough standing a few feet away from me. However, working in a noisy environment as I do, it's no big deal. But if you yourself are looking for a solution that's silent to those around you, this ain't it.The headset fits great around the back of my head, and let me tell you, I have a BIG head. If you have thick hair like I do as well, you may find that you need to tuck the back loop underneath your hair for better comfort.I tested the sound quality a few different ways:- no hearing aids, no earplugs- with earplugs (included)- wearing hearing aids, but powered off- wearing hearing aids, powered onNone of these gave any reduction in sound quality, no muffling effects. Clear transmission through and through.They are comfortable enough to wear for the entirety of an 8-9-hour day at work. Unlike my hearing aids, which pitch hissyfits if they have to try and communicate via Bluetooth while my phone is in my jeans pocket, these have no issue with Bluetooth connection regardless of pocket placement. I'll say that they can slip out of place or go askew at times but usually not. Also, a huge selling point is that they have CONTROL BUTTONS!! 3 buttons on the right-hand side to play/pause, skip forward, rewind, and increase/reduce volume. An excellent feature since bosses don't love when you pull your phone out to mess with your music.I've had no issues with durability or quality yet and it's been a few months. They haven't broken, decreased performance quality, or even chipped their paint or anything so far.Especially if you, like me, feel a bit unsure about shelling out for a higher-priced headset like from the SHOKZ brand, this is a great set to test out if bone conduction headsets are going to work for you.Ver másVer menos
