AfterShokZ Aeropex AS800 Review: One of the best bone conduction headphones under $160, affordable and you can buy. Even though this model is a little expensive when compared to previous models. But it’s worth it for the better sound quality and longer battery life.
AfterShokZ Areopex AS800
Open-Ear Wireless Bond Conduction Headphones, Water-Resistant IP67 rating, Enjoy with music continuous 8 hours, Multi-function button, Sports and exercise design
The AfterShokz Aeropex AS800 is the best bone conduction headphones available in the market now. Due to their amazing design that uses vibration instead of speakers to generate the sound, they do not on or inside the ear on any side, and the buds simply rest on your temples.
Due to this, they do not block any ambient sound, making them a fine option if you like to forever have background sound or podcasts playing while still being capable to carry on discussions, or if you run outdoors and need to stay aware of your environments.
During the AfterShokz Aeropex AS800 review, I notice these are not for everyone, but for specific needs, they might be right what you are looking for.
The AfterShokz Aeropex AS800 earphones have a fine style that looks the same as other variants by the company but is not like most other earphones on the market. Unlike traditional buds, these headphones do not go into your ear, but in its place sit on top of your ears. They’ve a headband that goes through the back of your head, and hooks for the ear to help keep the headphone on your ears.
Things have been top in the durability stakes moving from IP5 moisture-resistant rating to an IP67. That means you are getting something that is equipped to be flooded in water up to 1 meter depth for thirty minutes.
The headphone controls are great and a huge improvement over the previous model. 2 small buttons placed just behind your right ear that is utilized for volume up and down, paring, power on and off, and checking the battery life when not working.
There is also a button on the left side for play and pause, track skip, and voice assistant access. Overall the buttons are simple to use and provide fine feedback, and the volume controls provide you audio cues.
The headphones are extremely lightweight and are quite comfortable. Due to their design, they are way less noticeable and decent fit on your ears than usual over-ear headphones. They use a bit of pressure where your ears meet the head, although they are better than older models that feel the same as wearing a pair of glasses.
The headband of AfterShokz Aeropex AS800 sticks out less on the back of the head than the TREKZ Air, but it still might get snagged on sweaters or hoods. Since you feel sound via vibrations, bass lovers might irritate after long listening sessions, though this likely would not be a problem with other genres of podcasts.
There’re undeniable cons to the bone conduction build, first of all, the sound quality does not compare to the sealed symphonic of Apple Air Pods, Bose, or Beats – that said, they’re amazingly decent. Also, you would not need to use these headphones in noisy environments like an office, gym, airplane, or coffee shop – even at high volume, you are still going to hear all around you.
The manufacturer does include earplugs for these issues, but we would rather use the AS800 for special needs and stick to conventional buds or earphones in crowded or noisy areas.
Overall the sound generated by these is best suited for most vocal-centric content like audiobooks or podcasts. Though they will still likely be fine for most genres of music and give amazingly decent bass results. Though, they would not give you a similar sort of thumping bass as traditional earbuds.
