I love Bluetooth bone conduction earphones and I'm ready to buy something pricier, sturdier, waterproof, and hopefully sound far superior to everything I've tried.

I've had a few budget sets, and I love the convenience, portability, and weight of all of them, but the audio is obviously dog s***.

Are there any bone conduction headphones that are not dog s*** audially that any of you can personally attest to?

Thanks

Headphones basically are tiny speakers you strap to your head.

Like any earphones or headphones, you can't really make them completely silent to other people at loud volumes because their function is to push out audio.

My specific goal is the comfort and convenience of bone conduction headsets with better quality audio rather than any headset with great audio quality, in which case I would use sound dampening over the ear corded headphones.

I can wear my bone conduction set for 6 hours on a run or hike and then get home and not even notice I'm still wearing them until I realize I have to take them off to take a shower or something.

Super comfortable and convenient.
