What’s the difference between Bone conduction headphones and normal headphones?
Bone conduction is a way of conducting sound by sending the sound into a different frequency of mechanical vibration. Sent through the human skull, bone labyrinth, inner ear lymph fluid transmission, screw, auditory nerve and auditory center to transmit sound waves. In contrast to the classical sound transmission of sound waves through the diaphragm, the bone conduction eliminates many acoustic transmission steps to achieve a clear sound reduction in a noisy environment, and the sound waves won't affect others.
When we eat a biscuit, we can hear the sound of biscuits broken because of the vibration through our teeth and skulls to our inner ear. In the 18th century, the principle of bone conduction helped the great beloved deaf composer Beethoven to hear the wonderful music. Beethoven tried a technique invented by Giovanni Phillipo, England. Where he could hear the music from the jaw bones with a stick connected to the piano. This was actually the early beginning application of the bone conduction principle.
Bone conduction technology is mainly used for military, police professional headphones. Also in hearing aids, sports headphones and other fields.

    What’s the difference between Bone conduction headphones and normal headphones?

    Well, right off the bat, "bone conduction" sounds very unpleasant.

    I'm sure there are other differences, but that was the first thing that came to mind.

      I have the aftershokz trekz titanium, im a person who gets very sore ears/infections from using earbuds. I absolutely love mine
      Cant speak to these ones as i have never tried them but i love the concept, especially in an office as it doesn't block out external sound.

      • Whats it like in an office setting? I'm super worried that my music will sound too loud and annoy the people near me, or it will be too loud in a train (especially those quiet carriages like Sydney has).

          So for an office, if you use it for background noise/podcasts I've never had a complaint from anyone. I sit around 1.5 meters away from my coworkers.

          Never gotten any weird looks on the tram in Adelaide wearing them.

    seems expensive and never heard of this brand, can i neg the deal?

  • Yes, expensive. The average price is $79 on Amazon. You get what you pay for.
    This is normal, otherwise, both us can buy the cheapest one from Ali, like Aliexpress, no patent, no warranty.

      That's not such a bad idea. Aren't these identical to yours?

      • +2

        Yes. One product is the hot sale, more factories will copy that. More the lowest price you can check Taobao or 1688 (All these sites belong to Ali). There is no lowest but lower.

        nice find. so 36 aud to 41 aud on quantity direct from the manufacturers. at 81 retail even if its FOB it turns a pretty good profit, especially on something you can slap your own brand on.

    hmm interesting. i dont like earbuds as it needs to get pushed deep in to ear canal. i prefer something just sit in.
    maybe this suits me (have plantronic backbeat FIT which i like).

  • +1

    This would have to be a gimmick. Anyone who's had a hearing test where they test both air conduction and bone conduction knows that for sound transmission to work, the transducer needs to be pushing pretty hard against the mastoid bone behind the ear. Besides bone conduction being more inefficient than air conduction, it would also become uncomfortable very quickly.

    Don't waste your money.

      This is a very good help for those people who are ear canal infections. If it said it's not comfortable for people. I think a lot of earbuds headphones as well.

    • +1

      Have you tried any?

      My trekz are great, genuinely use them everyday.
      They even come with earplugs for times when you want sound isolation. The sound changes quite dramatically and becomes alot more bass heavy.

      Wont argue the science behind it but i don't get ear infections anymore due to headphones.

    waiting for xiaomi to make one of these. would be 5x better in quality but with 1x in price

    • +2

      so…. the same price?

      • +1

        Lol

    • +2

      Good idea. Xiaomi is the best copy company.

      • It's not copying if they do it better.

    • +1

      That seems inevitable.
