Excellent. Not quite perfect.
What I don't like. You can't answer a call by pressing a button on them. You can't lie down with them on. They could be more comfortable. Good thing is, they make more comfortable ones which I'll upgrade to soon. If I really wanted to lie down, they make a bus style. My wife has them and absolutely loves them. It's truly a phenomenal product. I was most surprised at the...

Uncomfortable
I had previous versions. These are so stiff in the back uncomfortable to wear when sitting and head back in recliner. Wouldn't purchase again

Love them
I love them. I got a pair for my children also so they have an open ear while listening to their music or videos. The battery life is more than acceptable but I would like to see the next model double in battery use, or have a way that they charge in the case like other pods or buds. Even with that said I prefer these hands down to my Apple AirPods and Anker products.

Great
I’m using these with a Blue tooth setup with my TV/receiver so I don’t wake my wife in the morning. These work great

I like that they don’t
I like that they don’t go in your ear, that’s a huge positive for me. I wish they were adjustable, and unfortunately I think the sound quality is terrible.

Love them. Comfortable, great sound, and they don't go directly in your ear so I'm not losing my hearing.

Mind blowing!
These are my first pair of bone conduction headphones and they are amazing. The sound is great and sound even better when you put ear plugs in. I work in a very loud building using power tools all day and need to wear ear plugs. So the fact that I can wear foam ear plugs and still listen to music is life changing.

The OpenMove has been one
The OpenMove has been one of the best headphones I have ever bought, it is so comfortable that I easily forget that I am wearing them

My husband has a hard time with inner ear devices, due to being hard of hearing and a collapsed ear drum. He really likes his new open moves.

Happy Camper
The product performs beyond my expectations. It took a while to get here and I took a little while to try it. But I'm happy. Easy to charge, easy to sync, and now I can listen to music and still feel part of the world.

I love them!
In ear and over ear phones give me issues because I have lots of earwax but these ones don’t have that problem. I can take calls and meetings with ease! And everyone can hear me without issue too. I don’t really listen to music on them, and when my brother tried them out for music, he didn’t like them. I do enjoy my audiobooks on them. They felt a little bit loud at fir...

Love being able to hear
Love being able to hear people talk to me while my headphones are on. I use these exclusively for podcasts and audiobooks, and the sound is extremely clear.

These headphones sound okay but I don’t like the fit. The model I got isn’t adjustable and they stick out behind my head and bump into my collar is I have a jacket on. They’re okay but I’m not wild about them. I wish I could make them fit my head

They are great, but rated 1 star cause this survey was preset to 5 star, which is always a rigged system.

Just okay sound quality
I would actually like to give 4 1/2 stars. The first day I really thought about returning them because the sound quality is not amazing. But I gave them a shot and wore them around town. I decided to keep them because it is so nice being able to hear my surroundings everywhere I go. The call quality is also really nice, and people say they can hear me clearly on the oth...

Fantastic Product!
I have never been a fan of earbuds - I have small ears, and they would constantly pop out, etc. For years, I have run without music, and have enjoyed the general ambiance of my neighborhood or running events, but it can get a little monotonous after a while. I also use an interval timer, which can be challenging to hear when there's a lot of loud noise (crowds, on-cours...
