“The headset works fairly well. It sometimes cuts out and disconnects from phone for unknown reasons. I have to restart it and it then works well for a while.”
“I am unable to use the usual "in ear" buds as they always full out and the over ear options are so clunky and uncomfortable. I have found the AfterSHokz to be super comfortable, easy to use and the calls are always very clear.”
“Using it for conference or meeting. Absolute amazing product. Have noise cancelling system and my colleagues can hear me very clearly. I would rate 10/10 in my scenario”
“My AfterShokz headset is great. So light and barely noticable when wearing. My friends and colleagues are jealous when they see me wearing it and want one too! I actually purchased mine after seeing another colleague wearing one. Recommended.”
“I love this headset, definitely the best money I have spent in a while! If you WFH or just want to be able to multitask while out and about or can't stop the music, just buy them already!
Do you want to work anywhere and not have others realise? Make coffee during a mtg? Not have over-ear headphones preventing you from hearing your kids about to burn the house down... ; then these are for you.
Favourite things:
The microphone quality; it is exceptionally good at removing background noise (I can grind coffee and other callers don't notice! WTF ☕!), or sit outside and have a truck drive past and it is quiet whirr in the background... maaaaaaaaate!
Seamless music pausing on PC when I use my phone via the 2nd Bluetooth chanel.
The pouch, very good quality, not worried about them getting damaged.
Magnetic charging cable is totally ace
Further good features:
Comfortable with glasses
Discrete, light and fast to charge
Reasonably good music quality for bone conduction earphones (I had nice Sennheisers prior but the wire broke to the left speaker after 6 years daily usage , I will perform surgery soon)
Flexible boom and design, it doesn't feel like they would be easily damaged
Obviously it doesn't block ambient noise (which is expected), but you can turn it up loud enough to block out the office if need be
Cons:
Sweat on the contact patches (not worse than normal over-ear pleather, which I have replaced with fabric on my Sennheisers)
Feedback beeps are too loud for me (I have given feedback to Shokz to match it with the actual volume, hopefully they will implement it for future models)
Volume adjustment is only by 8% increments, it needs finer resolution, however you can use the phone or PC for that
Finally a surprise, if you wear earplugs the sound is amplified significantly and you can clearly hear music on the minimum volume (but watch out for the feedback beeps which seem to be at max!)”
“Great flexible headset. One of the major benefits is that you dont get hot uncomfortable ears! Whilst they're not Teams rated they work great and particularly comfortable if you're wearing them for long periods.”
“Great headset, dongle makes it more versatile. The case could do with some enhancements.
Because I liked it so much, got both kids one each so they can use it for gaming.”
