Tayogo Bone Conduction Headphones - Open-Ear Wireless Bluetooth 5.0 Sport Headset, Sweatproof & Lightweight for Running, Cycling, Gym Workouts & Outdoor Activities (Grey)

Bought these to try out bone conduction headphones after reading positive reviews. When they came I was impressed with the construction, materials used are sturdy, but easy to clean. I've been very impressed with battery life, at reasonable volumes I've got 6-8 hours easy.Obviously no bone conduction headset is going to be delivering high fidelity reproductions of Bach concertos, but the way these render popular music is no worse than what I would have expected. They work great for listening to podcasts etc while maintaining a degree of situational awareness. As with any bone conduction headset, there is a small but noticeable amount of noise noticeable to people nearby when you're in a quiet room, so I tend to switch to earbuds indoors. The microphone works as well as that on any bluetooth headset I've used.Using them is very straightforward, the only thing I had to look at the manual for was having to hold the button on the left ear for five seconds to get them to appear for pairing after previously having been paired (to multiple different devices).I bought these to wear when riding my bike and when working out. They work great for working out, have decent (not ground-shaking, but decent) base, and the volume up/down controls work fine, as does the MFB (to play/pause). I wear them sitting just in front of my ear.I also tested them making phone calls. I was hoping to use the MFB for starting Google assistant, but no such luck. It works to answer/end calls, play/pause, and start pairing, but will not bring up the assistant, so need to do that on the phone itself.It does work while riding the bike, but you need to be careful when putting it on. First time, I put it on first, then my sunglasses, then I buckled my bike helmet. When I did this, the tightness of the straps makes the frame of the headset bow a little bit, lessening the contact with my head, so less sound. So, I tried strapping on the helmet first, then the headset (so it goes over the straps), then putting on my sunglasses. Doing it this way, it works better and I get decent sound. I have an eBike and I ride at more than 20mph, and even with the wind noise, I get decent sound with this (and not even have to fully turn it up). So, keep this in mind if you use it while riding.So, it is a great unit. My only complaint is not being able to use Google assistant. Maybe in a future design, they can incorporate that into the MFB somehow.Headphones worked great, and then they started constantly restarting and trying to pair over and over again. I emailed Tayogo and they quickly responded. We tried troubleshooting, and then they replaced them for me at no cost to me. I appreciate the great service.Little noise cacelation, but that's what I was looking for. A pair of ear plugs are included to improved volume and sound quality. 3-4 hrs of bettery life if you play it loud. Speakers are thick but comfortable.These headphones, as headphones, are pretty great! There are a couple of design decisions they made, however, that lead to some problems.First of all, it is crucially important not to charge with anything remotely powerful of a charger, it can and will fry the headphones. Use only 1A capable chargers, or better yet, a computer USB port. They replaced a set for me because I charged with 0.85A.Secondly, on my second pair the charging port actually fell out and got stuck in a really strange way. I could probably convince them to give me another pair of headphones, but at this point in time I'm just going to try a different brand.Bottom line, if you baby the charging they can be great headphones, but I personally won't get another set.They are comfortable and no problem hearing while riding with my windows down. The only problem I have is hearing. You have to press them to outside of your ear to hear what the other person is saying most times. I think the sound should be controlled by the phone volume. But compared to others that I've owned it's one of the best. I'd definitely buy againThat is what my first indication was how will they sound Until I got them the sound is awesome and best part is they don't bother me, most important they don't fall off your head... I am going to look into buying another few to give away as Christmas gifts.I bought these to wear as a headset for meetings to minimize ear fatigue and it works ok for that function. I wasn't expecting much when I got these but for what they are they are pretty decent. The mic is pretty sensitive and picks up everything around you. Compared to the much more expensive Shokz brand you have to crank these up to match the volume. When you crank them up they vibrate quite a bit more than Shokz and it feels a bit weird. People around you will be able to hear what your listening to especially if you have the volume cranked. The Shokz do not have this problem. You won't have much bass but you can get it back if you wear ear plugs which defeat the purpose of having it open ear.When looking at budget vs name brand, the price gap really does make sense when looking at performance. These are good to try out if you're new to bone conductor headsets and want to see what it's like without blowing $120+Llegaron antes. En buen estado. Inmediatamente los conecté a cargar para poder usarlos. Realmente pensé que ésta sería la solución a mis necesidades. Uso audífonos para no hacer ruido a los demás porque compartimos espacio y tenemos horarios diferentes y para dejar dormir a los niños.. Entonces, algo que no me agradó, independientemente de los problemas que experimenté, es que los traes puestos y todos alrededor pueden oír lo que se dice o estas escuchando. No son silenciosos para los demás. Con eso es suficiente para que no cumpla con mis necesidades. Uso otros bluetooth de orejera sin embargo me aíslan por completo que ni el timbre oigo, ni al niño cuándo llora.. entonces cuándo los uso inmediatamente me siento incomodo de no tener control de lo que está a mi alrededor.. por eso me decidí cuándo leí sobre éste producto. Sin embargo, la razón por la que hago la devolución es porque simplemente no tienen buena conectividad. Por lo menos NO el par que me tocó modelo S2. Se pierde la conectividad o la secuencia de sonido por fracciones de segundo pero ininterrumpidamente, lo cual es BASTANTE MOLESTO. Si estas en una conversación pierdes palabras y si estas escuchando música es cómo si tuviera hipo. Cuándo los usé en mi PC el problema es más severo, cuándo los conecté a mi celular o la bocina es problema fue mas leve.. en la TV de plano eran mas silencios que sonidos. Al estar conectado en la PC o la TV y me retiro menos de 10 pasos *cómo 6, sin exagerar, pierde el audio por completo pero no se desconecta o no te dice que NO está conectado.. si me vuelvo a acercar se vuelve a escuchar. No tengo que tenerlos semanas para poder decidir que o me tocó uno defectuoso o de plano es un pésimo producto. Lo único positivo que salió de la experiencia es saber por completo que no son audífonos silenciosos. Inicié el proceso de devolución.This was a purchase I made to try out bone conduction earphones without splurging too much. I wasn't expecting great sound quality, but was hoping for something with good battery life, relatively clear audio, and something great for when walking out on the streets (where I can still hear the environment).These are exactly that!Another plus is Tayogo has a pretty low effort method of getting an additional year of warranty on the product - so there's that!Tayogo requested me to write a review before providing a warranty upgrade to 2 years.I have been using the item for only 3 weeks at this stage.The headphones are somewhat bulkier and heavier than the Aftershokz I had before, but wearing comfort is still ok. Given that these headphones are considerably cheaper, the sound quality is acceptable, and I am using them mostly for podcasts or audiobooks anyway. The phones can be charged via standard micro-USB cable. The charging time is fairly long and a full charge last for around 5 hours.The most significant issue I have experienced so far is that the headphones turn themselves completely off for no apparent reason or stay turned on but interrupt the podcast/audio book quite frequently that then have to be restarted from the phone - which is obviously quite annoying when you are running . This problem has to originate from the headphones as it doesn't happen when I use my phone with other Bluetooth speakers or headphones.I will monitor the issue a bit longer but most likely will have to return the item.Los auriculares son de BUENA CALIDAD (comparado con otros semi-desechables que he tenido) por lo que la correlación CALIDAD/PRECIO es buena, tienen un diseño ELEGANTE y son MUY CÓMODOS fácilmente AJUSTABLES y en general tienen MUY BUEN FUNCIONAMIENTO (pero no alcanza la calificación de "Excelente). Mi único "PERO" es que ocasionalmente hay fallas en la conexión Bluetooth (se pasma y tienes que resetear el botón de los auriculares). Fuera de éste detalle el artículo es "MUY BUENO" "RECOMENDABLE".Mine broke after 6 months of use.Amazon told me to contact the seller for warranty even tho it was fulfilled by Amazon US.Seller wont honor it since they didn’t fulfill the order. Strange thing is that the seller actually asked the buyer to register extended warranty with them when they wont even honor the warranty.Avoid!!
