Title: Better audio quality than expected
Review: I tried a cheaper (<$75 set) and the audio quality sucked, and they didn't fit right. Although this one was twice as much, it's far superior to the cheap ones. Quality and comfort. Well worth the cost.tl;dr - Originally purchased a set that was around $60. Sound quality was very 'tinny' and they barely fit my head correctly. They also felt very cheap and figured they would break within a few weeks at best. Sent them back.Picked up this set and I wasn't disappointed. If you're expecting audiophile quality sound, it's not going to happen. That said, these sound remarkably well. Low frequencies (bass guitar, drums, etc.) are not powerful, but the frequency range is so wide and clear, that the overall sound is very good. You can hear the highest frequencies clearly (cymbals, etc.) and the lower ones are prominent (just not 'thumping').They also fit much nicer and I can see myself wearing them for hours with little fatigue. PLUS, this one allows you to store 32GB of music locally on the built-in headset memory chip. No need to carry your phone around just for a music source. They do work just fine as a bluetooth headset, but if you go to the gym, you can just slip these on, press and hold the power button to turn on, and off you go.The build is much better. They actually have a little 'weight' to them yet are light enough to wear for long periods of time. The controls are straightforward.They may not be from a familiar audio company, but they are worth buying.

Title: Reviewed vs. Openrun Pro. Mojawas win!
Review: I compared Mojawa Run Plus with Shokz Openrun Pro (regular and mini) and they both have their strongpoints. My main usage case is road and mountain biking, while also using them around the house (mechanic work, chores, etc). I have a smaller head (55.5CM circumference).TLDR: The Mojawas win, no contest. They stay on your head way better, donât move around, have better buttons/controls, and sound about the same. USE THE APP! You can use other sound profiles and the Swim profile is great for non-swim workouts. I returned the Shokz and kept the Mojawas.The Mojawas sit tight in front and behind your ear and win for fit. This is a BIG win, in my opinion. They really feel planted. They seem to hold in place really well. The band also rides higher around your head, which keeps it from getting caught in your hair. I'm a guy and the Openrun Pro Mini's sometimes got stuck in the short hair behind my head and got irritating, so I ended up with the non-Mini. The Shokz Pro really only hold on the front of the ear and the rest kinda just hangs there . I think this is a big miss on their design. The Mojawas also do better with glasses on than the Shokz, but it wasn't a deal-breaker. The Shokz require more of a sweet spot than the Mojawas did, because of the speakers, and they often fall out of this spot on their own. I canât imagine running with them on.The Mojawa wins for control interface, both Volume and the multi-function button. Hands down, no comparison. The Mojawa touch slider for volume gets a little annoying at times, but still less annoying than the tiny Shokz buttons. The Mojawa multi-function button is the entire 'lobe' whereas the Shokz have a tiny little one. The Mojawa sound profiles in the app make a bigger difference than Shokz.The Shokz win on sound quality, marginally. Having the open speakers that point into your ear makes for a fuller sound. The Mojawas sound good, especially if you use their app and use the Swim sound profile. The Mojawas do have better bass because they hold on your head better. I will note that the Mojawas seemed to vibrate the bones a little more, likely because they are so secured to the head. This didn't bother me after the noticing the initial change. This sound quality difference doesnât even come close to the benefits of the Mojawaâs improved fit, so itâs a moot point for me.The sound effectiveness is the same during cycling with winds and whatnot, both are unaffected by wind, both do what they're supposed to do. I did find myself always having a higher volume on the Shokz. After using them for multiple 4hr+ bike rides, I can say I prefer the Mojawa sound profiles overall since I listen to bassier music.With the Mojawas being IP68 certified, theyâre also a better choice for working out in general. The Shokz have open speaker grills and stuff does get in there.Both brands charge quickly and seem to last about the same amount of time. I always recharged after my 4 hour rides and they were still on âmediumâ battery.

Title: Headphone elevates work out experience
Review: Iâm pretty happy with this purchase, because my workout experience has elevated as a result. I use these headphones when Iâm swimming, mostly doing water aerobics, not so much laps. The reason being is because it cuts out due to the blue not being able to work in the water. Thereâs a way to set up pre-programmed songs, but Iâm not gonna sit and fiddle around with that too much, I do have ADHD. Nevertheless is almost like I canât even go in the water without these headphones. I just take them off when Iâm doing the laps. I also have a dog that I take for long walks, sometimes it can rain or maybe too hot outside and Iâm sweating. Itâs just nice to know that I donât have to worry about my Headphones. Iâve gotten the headphones, wet a couple of times and they seem to be fine, but there was a point where my headphones started to Trip out and the button wasnât working properly I contacted the customer service and they easily replaced my headphones, which I really appreciate for company to make sure that their Customers are satisfied. I definitely recommend buying the bone conductor headphones because they are better for your overall hearing. I do like that. It allows me to be able to hear whatâs going on around me to maintain my situational awareness. The only real setback that I have regarding the headphones is that when people call me, theyâre not able to hear me very well. Otherwise, I Would recommend

Review: The sound quality is good underwater, but there are a few issues:- Switching to MP3 mode is not straightforward.- The device announces any setting changes in the microphone, and while I'm listening to music, I can hear it adjusting the settings on its own, even when I'm not touching anything.- Out of the water, the sound volume is not high enoughI am still happy with the product and recommend it for swimming only.

Review: Je m'en sert pour courir, rouler, et nager. 3 à 4 fois par semaine depuis bientôt un an.La qualité sonore est très bonne. Un peu moins dans l'eau il est vrai, et c'est normal (entre les phases sous et hors de l'eau), mais après quelques ajustement, propres à chacun, le résultat est là : les séances sont bien moins monotones (du coup on en fait des plus longues 🙂 ). Et pour rouler (oui je sais... pas bien...) ou pour le run, le fait d'avoir les oreilles dégagées nous permet dâêtre alerte de lâenvironnement.Le volume un cran en dessous du maximum me convient amplement si je veux écouter la musique ou le podcast "fort".Je n'ai jamais été jusquâà vider complètement la batterie, mais je fais 4 à 5 h par semaine en la rechargeant qu'une fois par semaine.Top, je recommande.

Review: I bought a pair of the Mojawa Run Plus headphones earlier this month. I have had bone conduction headphones for swimming and non-aquatic purposes for a number of years including early and later generations of FINIS and Shokz. I chose the Mojawa after watching a video about the latest generation bone conduction headphones on Andy's Tech Tone on YouTube, never having heard of the company before. They are easily the best set of bone conduction headphones I have used. They are exceptionally good in the water with an audio quality that is excellent for music but equally so for the spoken voice in audiobooks. This is what I wanted. They are good as well out of the water. By chance I managed to borrow both a cheaper competitor and a more expensive one. The Mojawa won hands down. They are comfortable and easy to use. One early glitch was the touch pad which is affected by the water in MP3 mode. The instructions on how to lock the touch pad were not clear at all. But an email to customer service at the company was answered promptly and I sorted it out (a quick quadruple press of the power button while in Bluetooth mode, which results in a fifth final 'plip' sound to indicate they are locked). Then move to MP3 mode by the double click (click and hold to be precise). A call out to Jessie in customer service who was outstanding in assistance. I don't tend to do reviews but these are so good, I wanted to post. Yes, the system of loading MP3 files system is laborious but that's the same for all bone conduction headphones in the water. And using AudioHijack (freeware) it is easy to convert audiobooks into MP3 files and I can swim for hours. Brilliant headphones and strongly recommended.
