Wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets are a new type of headphones, because they have many advantages that traditional headphones cannot match, so they are gaining the favor of a large number of users. But at the same time, some merchants sell fake wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets in pursuit of short-term profits. So what are real wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets? How should we tell the difference? let me tell you in the article.
What Are True wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets?
Wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headset is a type of headphone that uses human bones as a sound transmission medium. They are generally ear-mounted, and the vibration unit is attached to the temple, and the vibration is transmitted to the inner ear through the skull, so that people can hear the sound. The fake wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets are actually a kind of air conduction headphones that look like wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets. They rely on two external speakers attached to the temples to produce sound, and then transmit the sound to the eardrum through the air, causing the eardrum to vibrate, and then to the eardrum, and the inner ear.
Advantages of wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets
It does not occupy the ear canal when in use. In addition to hearing the sound in the headphone, it can also hear the sound of the outside world, so that you are not isolated from the outside world, which can ensure your safety. For example, if you wear headphones when crossing the road, you won’t be in danger because you can’t hear the horn. That means if you often exercise outdoors, you can avoid dangerous situations. It allows you to listen to all directions while listening to music, protecting yourself without hindering others. Safety is the most prominent advantage of them. Because of this advantage, wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets are very popular among sports fans.
Wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets have another advantage: Since the headphones do not need to be plugged into the ear when worn, it is very helpful to maintain the internal hygiene of the ear. It will not cause a lot of bacteria to accumulate in the ear canal due to sweating for a long time during exercise. Compared with traditional earphones, it is more hygienic and healthy.
Of course, wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets also have some disadvantages. For example, the sound quality may not be as good as traditional noise-canceling headphones, such as more or less sound leakage problems. These two problems are mainly caused by the sound generation principle of wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets, and they are difficult to solve to a 100% extent. However, some excellent wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets have made a lot of efforts to solve these two problems and they achieved good results. The sound quality of these headphones is generally very good, and the sound leakage problem has almost been solved.
In general, bone conduction headphone has obvious advantages, their disadvantages have been gradually improved.Their advantages and disadvantages depend on how they work.
Wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets are a product that “attaches the sounding unit on the temple of the head, and the vibration of the sounding unit triggers bone vibrations, thereby transmitting the sound to the auditory nerve”.
Normally, when the air vibrates, the eardrum vibrates and a person perceives sound. It needs to be clarified that it is not the eardrum that really feels the sound, but the cochlea. The eardrum is only one step in the sound transmission process. Vibrations of the eardrum are transmitted through the ossicles to the cochlea at the back of the ear where they are perceived as sound, which is how air conducts sound.
In the process of air conduction sound, there is a medium that is listening to the ossicles. So, is it possible to transmit sound directly from bones? It’s possible, and it’s real. The vibration caused by the sound unit drives the bones around the ear to resonate so that the sound signal is transmitted to the cochlea, which is perceived as sound by people. This is the principle of bone conduction technology.
After understanding the way sound is transmitted and the principle of bone conduction technology, we can better understand how wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets work.
So how to choose bone conduction headsets? I think you need to pay attention to three key points: sound quality, sound leakage reduction and comfort.Here are some excellent headphones recommended to you.
1, Wissonly Hi Runner wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets
As a veteran electronic product fans, I can responsibly tell you that the Wissonly wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets are true bone conduction, which can protect hearing, so they are recommended by many otologists.
At the same time, Wissonly Hi Runner is also very good in terms of sound quality. It uses a 360 surround vibration unit, which can increase the vibration area by 35% compared with traditional wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets.They reduces the loss during bone conduction sound transmission, and which makes the sound more powerful.
Wissonly Hi Runner wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets are made of memory titanium that can be self-adjusted, which can ensure that the headphones have a good wearing experience and take into account more users.
In terms of functionality, as the flagship model of Wissonly Brand, Wissonly Hi Runner supports IPX8 waterproof level which is higher than the industry standard, and it can be worn in diving. It is equipped with 32G body memory, as well as the latest Bluetooth 5.0. Its product performance and experience have been comprehensively improved, truly making wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets suitable for more life scenarios.
2. Philips A6606 wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets
The A6606 uses a titanium alloy frame. It is very stable to wear during running and has less shifting, helping you to exercise without feeling weight. The unique way of transmitting sound of wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets bypasses the air, reduces noises, but is most afraid of having stethoscope effect. The A6606 is designed so that the frame of the headphones does not touch the back of the head, avoiding the “stethoscope effect” during exercise, so you can hear more precise and clear sound details.
3.AfterShokz OPENRUN PRO wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets
Openrun Pro wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets are worn in an ear-hanging structure with both ears. The body frame is made of titanium alloy, which makes the weight of the headphones very light, only 26g, and there is no sense of weight when wearing them. The body is made of soft and skin-friendly silicone material, which also makes it more comfortable to wear. As the body is integrated, this also makes Openrun Pro inherently has a good waterproof performance. Its waterproof rating reaches IP67, and there is no problem in sweating and getting wet in the rain. However, it is not professional waterproof after all. Therefore, it can’t be used when swimming.
4.Earsopen PEACE wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets
Unlike other wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets, this one has a charging case. The “T” shaped structure makes it stable as long as it is clamped on the ear. But due to the design of the clip ear, it may be a little uncomfortable after wearing it for a long time. It adopts the Bluetooth version of 5.0, can connect stably in a short distance and without obstacles. It reaches IPX7 level in waterproofing, can be immersed underwater for thirty minutes. In terms of sound quality, the sound quality of the human voice is clear, and the extension of the high tone is also good, but it will still appear turbid at the low frequencies.
5.Haylou PurFree wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets
Its body surface is made of silicone material, which is very comfortable. The small size body is its relatively big advantage, which makes it light and without a sense of weight while wearing. The sound quality is good in the field wireless Bluetooth bone conduction headsets, of course, it cannot be compared with traditional noise-canceling headphones. The battery life is good, you can listen to music for 8 hours, and it also supports fast charging.
In terms of waterproof feature, its waterproof grade reaches IP67, daily sweating, short-term rain, or washing are all no problem to it, but it cannot be used in swimming.
Among the above headsets, the two brands with the strongest technical strength are wissonly and aftershokz. Their teams have more than 10 years of technical experience in this field. If you pay more attention to cost performance, Wissonly is the best choice.
