Duffle bags are all gone are they not?
I bought these about 6 months ago, and I wholeheartedly recommend them as long as you have the right expectation of them, e.g. zero noise cancellation. For context, I use them in both an office environment and while running. The only annoyance is the proprietary charging port, and I bought 2 spare charging cables from eBay (AU stock) for about $9ea to leave in the office and the car.
If anyone has any specific questions, happy to answer them based on my experience.
Curious as to the battery life?
Surprisingly very good. I use it to listen to audiobooks for hours at the time even on whole day rides and it’s yet to die on me. I don’t have actual numbers, but I’ve never felt like it was inadequate
How are they for cycling? Do they block out wind noise? Does helmet strap interfere with them?
I cycle for hours and hours with them. They’re excellent for cycling, as this does not go into your ears, they don’t block any wind noise but they don’t also make them worse like in ear earbuds.
You can still hear while riding, but car noise is the bigger issue. On busy roads, it can be hard to hear not because of wind noise but car noises.
Helmet straps don’t interfere with them but if it’s below these headphones, if you pull the helmet off, the headphones might come with it, just like sunglasses.
Pretty happy with mine - great for wearing while fully hearing everything around you, i.e. complete opposite of what a noise cancelling headphones are meant to do.
JB HiFi has got the same deal.
If you have any Ultimate Gift Cards bought previously from Coles or WWS, that would be a budget buy
Does anyone use them for swimming?
You need the openswim ones with 4gb storage (they are the best swimming headphones I have tried).
