Incredible!!!
The media could not be loaded. These headphones are absolutely amazing! If you are looking to have some sound while you’re working out these headphones are definitely worth it. They sound much better underwater than they do about the water which is incredible! The battery does not last very long on these unfortunately. They last about an hour and 20 minutes. Or at least that’s as long as I’ve been able to get them to run. They do give you a warning that the battery is low and it warns you several times before they die. But you will have no problem with the sound underwater that’s for sure. Songs are really easy to add. It works just like a flash drive. All you do is just click and drag the songs from your iTunes directly. The playlist goes in the order of which you drag and place the songs. My music is my fuel while I am working out and I am ecstatic that I am able to listen to my music in the pool while I’m swimming! I have not tried these in the ocean and I would probably recommend not to be in that salt water eats away absolutely everything but fresh water swim you can’t beat this. Honestly I feel like the person who invented these bone conduction headphones receive a Nobel prize! They’re definitely worth the money. And I hardly don’t ever review things but I am giving this a 8/10. The only reason why it gets an eight is because of the battery. If they could make the battery last longer then it would be a slam dunk. You won’t regret buying these that’s for sure.

Great on airplanes, too
I’ve had these for several months now and I love them. I swim with them regularly and they work just as advertised. I wish the earplugs came in different sizes, as I have tiny ear canals. But, that’s my problem, not the manufacturers.They do work better with earplugs in. They stay in place well while swimming. The battery lasts several hours, and I’ve rarely had it quit while swimming. One drawback is I’m not able to wear a swim cap while wearing these. Other people seem to be able to.It was easy to download mp3s to this headset. Lots of storage space. I could load more songs, but find that I have plenty so I’m not repeating songs until I’ve done several hour long swims.They also work great on an airplane. Extra bonus is that they work better with ear plugs so you don’t have to hear the sounds of those around you if you didn’t want to.Knowing how well they work, I have no problem recommending these for swimming or for everyday.

Finally, I can listen while swimming
This is the best thing out there for listening to audio while swimming and is vastly better than anything that I have tried before. I've had them for nearly 3 months and they've been solid. The quality is excellent and the clarity of the sound is unbelievable in the water.I swim in an Endless Pool (EP) 4 to 5 times per week for 40 min or more. The EP is noisier and more turbulent than a lap pool. This puts more demand on the headphones. I use the earplugs that came with the headphones and I got a Firesara Fabric Swim Cap to reduce noisy water flow over my ears. So, I put the headphones on first, followed by earplugs, swim cap, and goggles in that order. The cap is meant to be comfortable while improving my ability to hear the audio; it is not to improve swimming performance. My silicon and latex caps were awful for this.I listen to podcasts almost exclusively because they are the easiest for me to load. I find them in Apple Podcasts and export them to mp3 or m4a. Then, I run ffmpeg on them to double the volume and increase the playback speed to 1.4x. It also converts all of them to mp3 because some wouldn't play on the headphones otherwise. I automated this using a macOS Folder Action.If I couldn't easily double the volume of podcasts then I wouldn't be able to hear them well enough on full volume to follow the dialog! Aftershokz take note: filtering an audio file like this is out of the reach of most of your consumers. Without it, I would have returned these headphones!Speeding up playback is just icing on the cake but I'm really glad that I don't have to listen to podcasts at 1x speed. If the podcast is music, though, I don't increase speed but I still increase the volume.For these to be commercially successful, they need to be able to boost the volume of audio files and increase the playback speed right in the device. I also think that they need a way to synchronize with streaming services like Spotify. Most people are not going to do what I do.I have tried all kinds of headphones made for swimming over the last two decades. Bone conduction is the only way to go. If the headphones are piping sound directly into my ear canal then it is only a matter of minutes before water gets in and makes it so that I cannot hear anything. I nearly gave up on listening to anything in the water. I only tried these because I've also had a great experience with Aeroplex which were gifted to me. I'm glad that I did.

Great pair of headphones
I was hesitant before purchasing these. They actually sat in my save later list for quite a few months. I decided that I deserved a present to myself. I first charged them to make sure they were fully charged. Then I transferred music to them using the transfer/charging case that came with them with no issues. I went to the pool and originally I thought they didn't seem very loud until I put my head under water. Wow, the sound was awesome. I was worried that they would come off while swimming (the part that wraps around my head has a good amount of space), but they stayed perfectly the entire time. I didn't even have to use my swim cap. I did wonder if people could hear my music. I took them off and couldn't hear anything from them.If I were to say anything negative about them is that they are not adjustable. I don't wear a swim cap and they have slipped off before.

Muy buenos
Llevo 4 meses con ellos y estan muy buenos, me parecen un poco caros porque son de importacion, pero yo que nado todas las semana me parecen increíble, estaría increíble que también tuvieran Bluetooth para cuándo no están en la alberca, pero se escuchan muy bien y hacen su funcion, como tip, pueden crear carpetas y navegar presionando volumen y encendido a tiempo. Ojalá tuviera un botón de reproduccion aleatoria, La batería podría ser mejor pero si los usan 1 hora de nado toda 3-4 dias una carga full por la semana si les dura

Happy with my purchase of swimming headphones!
Did some research and decided on the AfterShokz for my swimming headphones. I am definitely satisfied with my purchase! They are pricey, almost a little too pricey for what they are, but they do work very well under water and I was having trouble finding anything else that I thought would be worth the money. They stay on well and don't feel uncomfortable at all. I like that there is a general mode and an underwater mode. I can definitely hear the difference between the two. Sound quality is quite good considering what these are used for. I've used them when I have forgotten my standard headphones at work. Don't expect a lot of bass or anything, obviously... but I knew not to going into this. I think they are really great swimming headphones and I am pleased! Customer service is top-knotch, too!Edut* having had these for nearly a year now, I think my review was almost a little harsh. As long as you know that this style of headphone is different from the rest and therefore your expectations must be flexible, this is an amazing set. Since I last wrote this review (I used them swimming in a pool and in calm shallow ocean water prior) I came home from my work trip out-of-town and used them while dipping into the Pacific Ocean just a 10 minute walk from my home. I’ve never been disappointed with these headphones in the water. The waves were crashing against me and they stayed put on my head (obviously you have to be aware and careful) but I just want to say these really are cool, innovative, have lasted well and again, customer service was absolutely fantastic.

Kaufempfehlung
Nach superschneller Lieferung habe ich den Kopfhörer direkt heute im Schwimmbad benutzt. Ich kann nur sagen, ich bin total zufrieden.Der Kopfhörer sitzt gut und fest, auch bei starken Bewegungen beim Aquajogging im Tiefwasser. Der Klang ist super und auch die Lautstärke absolut ausreichend. Die volle Lautstärke war mir deutlich zu laut.Die Tasten sind klein und sicher nichts für Grobmotoriker, ich komme damit aber sehr gut zurecht.Musik kann problemlos geladen werden, das ging ruckzuck. Die Bedienung ist einfach und leicht verständlich. Die Bedienungsanleitung ist in Deutsch, am Kopfhörer kommt für aber nur Englisch in Frage, es sei denn, man sprich asiatische Sprachen. Allerdings sind das nur einige englische Wörter, die man halt kennen muß.Ich bin mit dem Kauf absolut zufrieden.
