Training for a summer swim series (I’m in New Zealand) and I get SO BORED. I’ve decided to invest in some swim headphones because I need to train distance and boredom is the only thing that stops me from finishing a session.
Does anyone have any swim earphones/bone conductors? Would love some recommendations
Good battery life and sound quality are the most important things for me!
I’ve used both Shokz and Zygo. Shokz has better sound and long battery life but requires file transfers. Zygo is Bluetooth and convenient but pricey and less available. I reordered Zygo but still waiting, so I got another Shokz for now—can’t swim without music
I use Shokz OpenSwim Pro. Sound isn’t great compared to regular headphones, but they work well in water. Use earplugs for better sound. Upload songs since Bluetooth doesn’t work well in water. I use them 80% for running, 20% for swimming. All bone-conduction headphones lack great sound quality.
I use the same ones and can only recommend them. Been using them 3 hours per week for nearly two years and they still work just great. I download podcasts or music as mp3. It changed my swims.
