headphones

Does it have to be bone conducting? I had a few of them and liked them generally. But they have to be connected, which often makes them awkward to use sometimes. The sound quality didn't bother me as much, but obviously it wasn't great. When there is enough outside noise like wind or on a bicycle, you have to turn them us so much that it vibrates your skull, which is something i didn't like at all.

I switched to shokz open fit 2, which aren't bone conducting, but still an open ear concept. The sound quality is way better, and you can use them for everything, except wearing ear protection while listening to music. They are way more comfortable, you basically can wear them for 10 hours and forget they are there. I used them for about a year, every day almost all day at work. They eventually stopped working because of sweat and grime and whatever. I mean they still work, but the sound is pretty bad. I tried some similar no name products for about 30 bucks, they are all okay. Right now i use bose ultra open earbuds. So far they have the best sound quality, and they have a great fit, but are also expensive and they do start to feel uncomfortable after 2 or so hours. I got used to it and can wear them for quite some time now, but i hardly ever forget that i wear them, like the shokz open fit.
