Open-Ear Headset – audio on your cheekbones, ears left open

Sound reaches you through the bone in front of the ear instead of through a plug in the canal. Traffic, colleagues and platform announcements stay audible while the music plays. A Bluetooth 4.2 radio holds two devices at the same time.

Why choose this open-ear headset?

Sealed earbuds are fine on a couch and less helpful in a bike lane. Here the ear canal stays empty, so nothing presses, nothing warms up and nothing blocks what is happening beside you. The band loops behind the skull and stays put when you move.

Cheekbone drivers: the audio travels through bone while the ear canal stays open.
Two connections: a phone and a laptop can stay paired at once.
Battery life: around six hours of calls, five to six of playback, 120 idle.
Onboard mic: answer a call with a button instead of digging out the phone.
Light band: flexible enough for an hour-long run or a long call.

Listening without giving up the room you are standing in.

The pads sit just ahead of the ear, above the jaw hinge, and the band carries the weight at the back. A full charge takes roughly an hour on the cable in the box. Wipe the pads down after a workout so the contact stays clean.
