This is best pair of headphones I have ever had I am hard of hearing and these boost the sound so I can hear better. The quality is very good and the sound quality is great.
Everything works very well. I can hear the other person on the call very clearly and they can hear me very clearly without having to talk loudly. One way to make it better is the battery could last longer.
These really blew all my expectations away. The sound quality was amazing. And I avoid that feeling of buds digging into my ear. I honestly recommend it.
I’m a music person and I have some of the best headphones that are made. I bought the Shokz because I thought they would be great for phone conversations, AND THEY ARE!! It’s important to me that I’m hearing my voice when I’m talking on the phone and these allow that as well as ambient noise in that you need to hear. Then I tried them from music, and was pretty blown away. Of course everybody loves a noise canceling AirPod… but there are sometimes you need to hear the noise around you without something physically in your ear! I have started to just leave these on all day long, and if I need a little music, I just hit the button on the side and I have a little bit of a soundtrack to my life without feeling boxed in. These are great for sports like riding your bike in traffic and needing to hear what’s going on around you or skiing… there are times you want complete isolation and noise cancellation and there are times you don’t, and these headphones are for those times. The quality is great for the cost. I bought these for all my friends for Christmas. When I say game changer I mean it.
I feel that this generation has solved some of the problems of the first generation. Namely, I am able to listen at higher volume without the annoying tickle of the first gen. It is still there but WAY less. Also, the audio EQ is so much better now. I ordered the mini this time because I found the standard size was a bit too big around my head, and the speakers would slip out of place. The mini size fits me perfectly. Nice and snug. It is comfortable but not quite as comfortable as the standard was. These are slightly heavier and the mini fits just tightly enough to be a little more noticeable over time.
But, all-in-all a MAJOR improvement! I think this is a recommended upgrade.
