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

These are perfect for me as a work headset
I am in love with these headphones! I currently have them paired with both my work laptop and my cell phone. I am able to clearly hear and be heard in both zoom and teams meetings. I like that I am able to hear my surroundings with them on. No one can sneak up on me when I am in a meeting.The battery lasts for my entire 11 hour day with a quick 15 minute top off on the ...

Ears free of buds!!
I like that my ears are free of buds! The band along the back is a little stiff, but the is the only thing I found uncomfortable when wearing them.

I would like a smaller
I would like a smaller version because it extends behind my head quite a bit. Also hard to hear when riding the subway. Otherwise great!

Good quality sound that takes
Good quality sound that takes a minute to get used too. I love being able to listen to music and podcasts while still being able to hear what’s happening around me.

Absolutely amazing.
I absolutely love these things. I use them all the time at home and at work. Now that our world is more about digital meetings, these coming really handy. They're nice at home so I can still hear what's going on around me with the kids and when I'm working in the yard. They're nice at work so I can still have conversations without having to remove things from my ear. Ov...

Real good quality
This work great for running, cycling, the gym,...and for watching shows on your tablet so you can hear what your 4 year old is also doing. So that's what I love about them. They are not going to give you good bass. The voice and music quality is really good imo.

Exceeded my expectations
Due to my own carelessness when I was a much younger soldier, I caused permanent hearing loss in my left ear because I ruptured the eardrum in that ear. I’ve been trying to get into a hearing loss center right here in Laredo, but I haven’t yet. When I heard that the technology is based upon hearing aid tech, I figured what the heck, I’ll give it a shot. Today was my 1st...

Outstanding value and quality!
Great sound with outside the ear comfort. Long battery life requiring charging less often.

Much better than any other product that I have bought
I really like this product my only negative thing I could say is after awhile they begin to hurt the area that the Speakers sit on. I wear them all day for work and in between jobs I have to remove them. I will say they are more comfortable then the last ones that I bought. I’ve heard the next levelUp ones are more comfortable, so I may need to upgrade

Best headphones ever!
These are THE BEST headphones ive ever had. I love the fact I can listen to music and still do other stuff. I work around people and I always need to be listening, or hear if someone comes uo behind me. If you turn them down low enough it like having background music just playing inside your head! Its so cool! And my ears don't hurt like with any regular earbuds! 10/10 ...

AfterShokz provide excellent sound quality.
Gave a pair to each grandson so we don't have to listen to their devices all the time.

Great Bluetooth. No drop outs of signal. No real noise cancellation since they are open ear.
I use them for bike riding and walking. They pair easily and no Bluetooth signal drop outs.

This is a upgraded version
This is a upgraded version after misplacing my original. Same great sound and seems the battery life is better beyond six hours. Just a great pair of head sets. No wires is the best.

I love being able to hear what's going on around me when I'm listening to music. People don't get a chance to sneak up on me either. I think these head phones are great.

I just don't know
I like the idea of the headphones - they're easy to use and sound quality is very good. But the volume on the highest setting when worn outside is modest. Also it's not entirely comfortable after an hour or more.
