Review: Excellent, almost magical, but has limitations - I've been running with this headphone and it's almost magical. The bone conducting headphones attach to the side of your head rather than in your ears and transmit the sound indirectly. The advantage is that when running you can hear traffic noise around you and as such are allowed in some road races where the roads aren't completely closed. The downside... you can hear the traffic noise and especially if you are running next to a busy road the traffic noise can drown out your headphones completely. The other downside is that since the headphones are not in your ears the sound is slightly muffled but I think it is an appropriate compromise for something that is spooky in the way it works. *Edit 2/9/2018* There seems to be a little strangeness in the buttons to switch the headphones on. If the headphones have been completely drained of power then it seems that you need to press both buttons to switch the headphones on rather then the single one used to switch it off. I was close to sending it back and creating a review like many below which I think have been foxed by this oddity in design. Review: Avoid at all costs - Excited as I was to receive these, they are useless. I got them out of the box, read the instructions and pressed the ‘multi function’ button for three seconds. Nothing happened. Thought they may needed charging. Went out for an hour leaving them charging. When I got back the red light had changed to blue so I thought they had charged. The instructions stated to turn them on first pressing the multi function button for three seconds before turning Bluetooth on. Did this and I got no audible voice prompt telling me it had turned on and my iPhone couldn’t find the headset when I turned its Bluetooth on. So I am returning them as if something isn’t simple to use, in this case I couldn’t even get it to turn on, they aren’t much use to me. The seller can sort out their faulty product with the manufacturer as, after reading other reviews other people haven’t been able to get it to turn on either. Shame as the headset felt it was sturdy when I held it in my hand. Stay away from this headset at all costs. Doesn’t work.
