Whats the first thing you think of when you hear the term "bone conduction"? Have you tried placing your phone underneath your pillow and playing music before ? It is my favourite way to listen to music because I feel like I am floating on marshmallows and immersed into my own other world when I do that. You should try it too! Your pillows can conduct music, metal can conduct electricity, so can your bones conduct sound.
Bone conduction headphones are ideal for people with hearing loss, tinnitus, as well as exercise and outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy sports.
Here are the top 6 benefits of using bone conduction headphones.
1. SITUATIONAL AWARENESS
What I think is most valuable about bone conduction headphones is that it could prevent accidents or mishaps that happen due to usage of noice cancelling earphones or headphones.
Thanks to the inventor of bone conduction, Beethoven ,we can now listen to our own soundtrack and the world around us.
Immersing yourself in a new playlist or compelling audiobook is a great escape when walking, running or cycling, but it’s a pleasure that can increase the risk of an accident.
Closing yourself off to the outside world also means you are less likely to hear trains, car horns, bicycle bells and any other warning shouts that you may need to hear. The Audiology Foundation of America has also stated that bone conduction causes less damage to eardrums.
With bone conduction headphones, you can hear another jogger or cyclist approaching behind you and are able to remain in touch with your office environment and hear your colleagues even while listening to your tunes. You’re still connected to your external surroundings even while experiencing your own private sound.
You can even listen to music while being able to have conversations with your loved ones and friends!

2. MORE COMFORTABLE FIT
Do your current earbud headphones fall out? Do they hurt your ear canals? Are full-size headphones too heavy?
Few things are more annoying than running on a treadmill with your right earbud dangling by the wire because when you start working up a sweat the stupid thing won’t stay in. One big advantage to our headphones is that they don’t fall out no matter how fast you run, how much you jump, or how high you climb.
Most people who use bone conduction headphones stick to them because of the comfort. You tend to forget you are wearing anything on your head because you are still in touch with the real world while immersing yourself in beautiful music. One of our customers have even said " sometimes I forget that I'm wearing them until I lay down at night. "

3. CLEAN AND HYGIENIC
A recent study of earphones found that earbuds can harbour 119,186 colony-forming bacteria units and this can increase even more if you are sweating! Bacteria just love a warm and wet environment, maybe take a look at how dirty your headphones are! Prepare to be shocked! Open-ear headphones make for an altogether cleaner headphone option.
4. A UNIQUE LISTENING EXPERIENCE
Bone conduction headphones provide a unique, double-layered listening experience that’s unlike any other.
It's something you have to hear to believe. It's time to give bone conduction headphones a try?

5. For those who suffer from poor hearing and use hearing aids
If you suffer from hearing loss and, or use hearing aids, bone conduction headphones are a viable option. While conventional earbuds and headphones may interfere with or jostle hearing aids, bone conduction headphones bypass this. Additionally, listeners who are deaf in one ear may enjoy stereo sound that can’t be heard with traditional in-ears. Bone conduction headphones give certain listeners a sense of hearing that may otherwise be unavailable to them.
Bone conduction headphones are also advantageous if you are deaf in one ear since they create a stereo sound that gives you a sense of hearing which you can’t experience with traditional in-the-ear headphones.
6. FASHIONABLE AND UNIQUE STATEMENT PIECE
Most of the people around you are wearing air pods, headphones but rarely do we see people wearing bone conduction headphones. The sleek design looks good on anyone and especially for sports enthusiasts and outdoor lovers.
