I’ll take you through the pros and cons of the five best headsets we’ve tested, to help you decide which one is right for you. Bone conduction is a specific kind of technology that differs from other open-ear headphones. Bone conduction headsets beam sound through the bones in your skull via transducers, rather than vibrating the air with soundwaves.

  1. Based n the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 are currently more expensive than the H20 Audio ones in the UK, which would you recommend the most?

  2. I’ve had four pairs of Shokz – I used all four literally daily, and they’re very good while they work. But literally all four sets lasted between 10 and 11 months before the power button stopped working.

    All 4 sets, the same failure. Eventually the power button is going to stop working.

  3. I got to try the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 the other day, a tree surgeon let me try his, and he’s using a chainsaw all day, which was all the recommendation I needed.
