5.0 out of 5 stars Worked for swimming

I had to convert my audible book to an MP3 but it does work via a really quick and easy website. Listening to an audio book via playback mode is best for swimming as you don't need to have your phone connected via blue tooth and remain in range of your phone. The only thing that is a slight niggle is that it takes some time pressing the button to stop it searching for blue tooth and go into playback mode. It automatically picks up where you last were but unfortunately you cannot rewind or fast forward to find where you were up to. It's absolutely fine for listening to songs as it can play them randomly but slightly annoying for an audio book as you have to listen from the start of the book again if you press something and lose your place. Sound quality is fine although I would appreciate it being a bit louder. Comfort wise is fine and battery life is really good.

So far so good. Just bought them recently to replace my shokz as they kept breaking down. I paid £170 for the shokz, these £34. Sounds as good. Operating ease..brilliant. longevity..we will see

Really impressed. I bought them to wear whilst swimming. I was a little skeptical but they work really well. The music was clear, they were comfy and the others in the pool didn't have to put up with my music.If I had to come up with an area of improvement, sometimes they feel too big around back of head but no adjustment. When swimming breaststroke as I mostly do, it's no bother but backstroke feels like I could do with securing a little.Really happy with them. Would recommend to others.

Very pleasantly surprised.I have only used these headphones in the pool once and only via Bluetooth but they are brilliant. They do cut for a nano second when doing front crawl but only because the earpiece goes under the water and it loses connection - understandably. Have yet to download as an mp3 device but think it will surpass any expectations I had. The sound quality is amazing both in and out of the water. Distance to date away from phone in Bluetooth mode was over 100m and no loss of connection without obstruction in path ie wall. Was unsure with the cost being a little lower than other devices but very, very happy I went with it. Will review again once used as an mp3 player. Controls very easy to use in position. Fitting takes a little getting right for first time but once sorted very secure and did not move when swimming with any stroke. Extra band to keep in place a good addition. Very happy

These are brilliant headphones and make lane swimming much better not being with your own thoughts! I used the MP3 mode and downloaded songs onto it. Unsure of the storage capacity, but I had 65 songs on. The sound is brill and is quite loud at full volume. It comes with a little manual which is easy to understand.Only negatives: the band is quite big (my head isn't that small either) so I had to keep re-adjusting. I had them on shuffle mode, it would play 4 random songs then seemed to like a specific song and kept trying to play that. Finally, wouldn't have been nice to come in a case or something similar.

After loading up with MP3 files, these work brilliantly and are very comfortable while swimming. Battery lasts really well.Customer service also sent me a free case once I had registered the purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value for money.

Great headphones for the money. I set these up so easily, Bluetooth pairing was instant, and no problem connecting to my PC to download music and podcasts for when I'm swimming. Have not used them for swimming yet, but they have been great for walking or running as you are still aware of sounds around you. Sound quality is obviously not premium but that's not what they're designed for. Perfectly good enough for when you're exercising. Very light and comfortable as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable and work well while swimming, slow mp3 transfer

I can't wear in-ear buds, they keep falling out. So bone conduction is a great solution for me - they're comfortable enough that I can forget I'm wearing them, even with glasses. I wanted waterproof ones for long open water swims and these work well in that regard, the sound actually gets much better when your head is underwater!Sound quality is middle of the road, volume is decent, what else to say - for the price they do everything you'd ask of them.You need to use mp3 mode for swimming - that's not unique to these headphones, bluetooth doesn't work underwater.Only real practical downside is that mp3 transfers are *slow* - around 1mb/sec. It might have 32gb of storage but it'll take all day to fill it!
