What Are Bluetooth Bone Conduction Headset Phones and The Harm of Them?

Did you know that a new type of headset phones is popular among young people now? They are Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones. They're pretty cool, and a different type of headphone than all the ones that came before it. If you haven't read it, follow my article to find out.

What are Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones?

Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones are headphones in which the sound generating unit is attached to temples. Their vocal units convert sound into mechanical vibrations, which cause bone vibrations, and transmit the sound to the auditory nerve.

They are vastly different from common headphones. Common headphones are air conduction, while the sound unit of them is a horn. When you play music, their horns convert the sound into sound waves, which travel through the air in your ear to your eardrum, causing the eardrum to vibrate and then send the sound to the auditory nerve, where it is finally heard by your ear. Bone conduction headphones convert sound into mechanical vibration when making sound, and directly transmit the vibration to the auditory nerve of the inner ear through the bone without passing through the air and tympanic membrane.

Because of this difference, the way Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones are worn is also different. They don't need to be plugged into the ear, but hang on the pinna so that the sound unit is pressed against the temple. Of course, there is another type of clip-on bone conduction headphones, which are clipped to the ear when worn, and then the sound unit will stick to your auricle. But the vocalization and delivery of the sound is the same for both.

The unique wearing method of Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones also brings many advantages. The most important thing is that they are very safe

What are the harms of Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones?

Conclusion first, bone conduction headset phones are almost harmless, they are one of the healthiest headphones. I analyze the impact of bone conduction on hearing, the brain, bones, and other aspects.

The harm of Bluetooth bone conduction headphones 1: damage to hearing? rumor!

Bone conduction headset phones damage hearing, this is a complete rumor! In fact, they can be said to be the headphones with the lowest hearing loss. They do not need to pass through the eardrum to transmit sound, and there is no damage to the eardrum. Their vibration waves are gentle and stable, and will not harm the cochlea.

The harm of Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones 2: damage the brain? rumor!

Bone conduction headset phones can damage the brain, another big rumor. It is believed that there are electromagnetic waves in the headphones, and electromagnetic waves will inevitably cause damage to the brain nerves. In fact, electromagnetic waves are ubiquitous in nature. Any electronic product has electromagnetic waves, and high-intensity electromagnetic waves will indeed cause damage to the auditory nerve and brain nerves. However, the electromagnetic waves of bone conduction headset phones are very weak, which is comparable to the strength of electromagnetic waves that exist in nature, so they will not damage the brain.

The harm of Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones 3: damage to bones? rumor!

They transmit sound by bone vibration, but the vibration intensity is so small that it will not damage the bone at all. At present, there is no record of any bone conduction headphones damaging bones.

The harm of Bluetooth bone conduction headphones 4: lead to temple pain? there are individual differences

Some people have mentioned that their temples are sore after wearing bone conduction headset phones for a long time. This situation has a lot to do with the wearer's physique, mainly trigeminal neuralgia caused by the individual's physique.

Therefore, Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones are not harmful to health, on the contrary, they are the healthiest headset phones. They are also safer and more hygienic to use and more comfortable to wear, which is why they have become more and more popular in recent years.

So how to choose Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones? You must pay attention to two key points: sound quality and sound leak reduction characteristics.Generally, it would be better to choose a team with deep technology accumulation in the field.Here are some excellent headphones for you all.

1 .Wissonly Hi Runner Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones

Recommended reason:

Wissonly is one of the few bone conduction headset phone brands that have mastered bone conduction vibrator technology, and one of the few brands in the industry that have sustained experience in using bone conduction technology to protect hearing. Wissonly Hi Runner advocate a healthy way to listen. They perfectly combine the principles of healthy hearing and bone conduction sound transmission, to create a non-in-ear and non-ear-damaging bone conduction headphone which can effectively protect hearing.

Due to the particularity of the technical principle, sound quality of bone conduction headphones is more difficult to be improved . To this end, Wissonly Hi Runner subverts the traditional sound quality scheme, makes a breakthrough to use the large-size bone conduction vibrator. Through structural optimization, the effective vibration area of the vibrator is increased by 35%, thereby improving the vibrator sound efficiency, making the sound more powerful.It also optimizing the direction of sound transmission, reducing sound loss during sound transmission, and making the sound more concentrated.

The skin-friendly silicone material of the Wissonly Hi Runner's body is a product that can be in contact with the skin for a long time. It is naturally a better choice and feels good to the touch. Because the entire headphone is made of skin-friendly material, it is very comfortable to wear. Even if you wear glasses, you can still hang it firmly on your ears. The headphone frame uses memory titanium, which has the advantage of being stretchable and lightweight.

2.Philips A7607 Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones

Recommended reason:

The sounding unit of the 7607 bone conduction headset phones use a 17mm vibrator, which makes its sound have good penetrating power. What makes me even more surprised is that Philips A7607 is equipped with LED night run lamp at the rear of the its body, which has three kinds of brightness that can be switched. It is suitable for wearing at night, which can make people around you perceive their own position and further increase the safety factor. The waterproof performance of IPX6 grade is fully qualified for waterproof work in daily life, and even can withstand a small amount of rain intrusion.

3.AfterShokz OPENRUN PRO Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones

Recommended reason:

Openrun Pro is the flagship product of Aftershokz, which is equipped with PremiumPitch 2.0+ technology, with good overall sound quality, rich low frequency sound, delicate intermediate frequency sound and strong high frequency sound penetration! It's IP67 waterproof, and it's basically enough to sweat during daily exercise. It's fine to get caught in the rain for a short time, but it's not suitable for swimming! In addition, it has no built memory, so it can't be used as MP3, that is to say, it can't be used where there is no Bluetooth signal.

4.earsopen PEACE TW-1 Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones

Recommended reason:

The earsopen PEACE TW-1 headphones can be charged magnetically through the charging case, which is small and convenient to carry around. The headphone shape adopts separate design that is achieved for the first time in the bone conduction industry. The headphone body is a T-shaped design, that adopts the clip-on wearing method. At the same time, it also supports IPX7 waterproof performance. When traveling on rainy days or running to burn fat, there is no need to fear sweat and rain erosion, it can be used with peace of mind.

The T-shaped structure design of earsopen PEACE TW-1 adopts the form of wearing behind the ear with curved support frame. It is more comfortable when worn. But because of the wearing method, the pinna will be a little uncomfortable after wearing for a long time. The sound quality is average, and there is a little sound leakage. But as an innovative style in the bone conduction category, it is also worth considering.

5.Nank Runner CC3 Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones

Recommended reason:

Runner CC2 is made of titanium alloy, with a body weight of 28g, and the overall wearing experience is good. The sound quality and sound leakage are better than their previous products, but they still need to be improved. The headphones also support high-definition call noise reduction, which is a plus.

The ability of this headphone is relatively average, and there are no special highlights or obvious shortcomings. As an entry-level bone conduction headphone, it is still qualified.

Among the several Bluetooth bone conduction headset phones recommended above, Wissonly and Aftershokz are my favorite brands. Compared with them, Wissonly is more cost-effective and worth buying.
