CREATIVE Outlier Free Pro Wireless Bone Conduction Headphones with Bluetooth® 5.3 and IPX8 Waterproof

I have both Aftershokz Aeropex and these headphones. My Aeropex started to rattle badly on one side and I thought it was time to find an alternative to them. I though it might be useful to compare both headphones as I couldn't find a comparison anywhere.Sound quality wise these and the Aeropex sound very similar. Aeropex is slightly better but it's marginal and not worth the extra money. These were £49.99 when I bought them and the aeropex/open run are about £130.The Creative headphones are heavier than the Aeropex and feel like they grip more on the side of your head. They also have a longer battery life and the MP3 player so this probably explains the extra weight. They fit fine with glasses.Size wize I find both these and the Aeropex too big around the back and I wish I had bought the mini version. It doesn't actually make any difference in use most of the time but if you sit in a chair or car where your head might touch a head rest it gets slightly annoying. If you have a lot of hair or a big head it will be fine.I think these are a good choice Vs some of the more expensive options.

Fed- up of you ear bud falling our your ear! This is the answer. Great, secure headphones. Can be turned off and left around your neck so they can't be misplaced. Great sound quality and limit to how loud you can play it - so you don't damage your ear drums! However, the volume is still loud enough to block out surrounding noise / enjoy the sound of music. My only issue is on a couple of ocassions when travelling in large crowds with other Bluetooth users my sound has been interrupted 😕 Tiny bit frustrating hence 4 star rating.

Use for 1.5 year suddenly broken without any impact, the left speaker just loosen and making weird sound.Sound is bad anyways, avoid.

I already own a pair of shokz and saw these on offer. I have had creative gear before and been pleased with the products. I decided to try these.They are very good for the price eg £70 cheaper than my shokz.Things that I have foundNot good when wearing with some clothingWork ok in water but can come off easily on fast turnsBut seems okNot as good quality as shokz and other people can hear it it more than shokz

I use them for running, as i hate to take my phone with me, battery is great and sound is good, hope they last as i had the pro + before and lasted under a year.

They seem like such a good idea but unfortunately you can't move the earpieces at all so it was only in contact with one side of my head so could only hear on one side. Had to return unfortunately.

The sound quality of the speakers and microphones aren't the best, but are serviceable.In return your hear is unobstructed, so you can hear your surroundings, not stick things in your ear, and/or use proper hearing protection and still listen to audio.They are more water resistant than the Shokz, and when swimming, again, not having something in your ear is great.They can tingle your cheekbones a little, especially for bassy sounds, especially voices. I wouldn't call it uncomfortable though.

The media could not be loaded. This headset has a built-in mp3 player which makes it better than all its competitors. I can load all my songs and not have to worry about an external device. I often go running out in the mountains, where there is no cell signal. I used to have to bring my phone with me regardless, in order to listen to music that I had downloaded. Now I can safely leave the phone in the car, and still have my music with me, without the extra weight. It's a very freeing feeling.The fact this is waterproof means I can take them in the shower, pool, on rainy days and more. I never find myself concerned with their robust ability to deal with anything I throw at them. Thankfully the audio quality is good, both in precision and separation, and is relatively easy to use. The bonuses are three buttons instead of two, with the multi-function button being broken out from up/down volume/track; multipoint pairing so you can use two devices at once without re-pairing them, and a magnetic charging cable which is a bonus and a pain.I think the main purpose of these is to offer you a pair of wireless headphones that can deliver high-quality sound without blocking your ears or compromising your situational awareness. These headphones use bone conduction technology to relay sounds directly to your inner ear bones via vibrations through your cheekbones. This way, you can experience clear and immersive acoustics without covering your ears or isolating yourself from the environment.What’s nice is you can also connect up to two Bluetooth devices at once and switch between them seamlessly with Multipoint connectivity. This allows you to answer calls or stream audio through either device without disconnecting or reconnecting. Can be a true time and effort saver. They do have a built-in microphone that can capture your voice. You can use this for hands-free calls or voice chats with ease however, I find the microphone plug can very easily fall out when adjusting your swim goggles or hat. Can be a pain sometimes.These headphones also have a long battery life of up to 8 hours on a single charge. So far they have lived up to that promise. I have yet the need to recharge them after several swimming sessions. All in all, a fantastic hands-free option that allows you to maintain social awareness as well as allow yourself to still enjoy music.Hope this review helps.
