Good to see a review from a proper triathlon swimmer. Thank you.

Really great review! Your down to Earth honest review really helped me confirmed that I want to buy the Xtrainerz. I have the normal ones and LOVE them! Since I have excema and often really itchy ears either over ear or jawbone conduction is the the only headphone I can have.

Hi - your itchy ears. Try brulidine cream. I had otitis externia - swimmers ear for a decade - this cream is good. Gets rid of the itch and is antiseptic and antibactrial. States it is for outer ear infections on the packet. Plus tea tree oil is good and also diluted tcp - it can burn so dilute as required !

Thank you excellent review NEVER would i had thought when i was doing Tri's ('81 to '92) there would be a need and want for an underwater music device.

I bought my aftershokz air in december. I wear it almost every day. I love it.

Allô Nicolas parles tu Francais j’ai une question

Love the video. Could you do a review on maybe the watch that you use that can track how many miles you swim?

Thank you for your video I really appreciate it. Two questions if you get a chance. 1. Which one would you personally choose ? 2. What device were you using for the underwater shots just out of curiosity ?

I have the tayogo s2 Bluetooth and it works for about 6 hours. I buy the tayogo s5 mp3 player to run without the celphone and it works for about 8 hours with one charge.

The one with the fm radio and app. How long does the batter last, when you wear and use them? Did you use them for swimming? If so, did I last for a long time or did they stopped working? Can you use it anywhere, like if I go to the moves, a stadium to watch a game, a concert, or anything like events, that’s not exercising?

I guess I will save my pennies for the Aftershokz! Thanks!

I do love them for running as well, sound is not as great at normal headphones but you can hear things around you so that's a huge plus!

Nice, quick, speeded up review.No bs. I swim too but only 1 km! Are they going to last a couple of years for the price? , I ask myself. And I read the earplugs augment the underwater volume, did you try them yet?

I have them. Sound quality is still nice. Not same of course as normal hearing above water but nice accompaniment to swimming!

Did the FM radio work without the app or do you need the app to hear the radio? Can it play more radio stations? When you hear music, can people around you can? Is it loud? On the lowest, can people hear to? What the volume level where people can hear it? Or they can’t hear it?

Which do u recomnd me for swimming and that i can play forward and rewind on the same track

On the one with the app and fm radio, do you Owen it or make/sell it? If you own it, is it good with the fm radio, without the app? Is the radio good to use, even without the app?

Does audible or podcast work? What about KZread?

Can u play forward and rewind in the same track?

Tried tayogo but they kept shifting. I will try under the cap. Thanks.

The Tayogo comes with an fm radio features did you find that feature hard to use while swimming

That's great question, I didn't actually try that feature when I had it. Maybe someone else can help us find an answer.

I thought this channel was just some tech reviewer channel, then he said 4 mile swim, and I was like damn that guy is mad fit wtf, then I see the channel name

It does work under water?

Thanks for your review! Can you please tell me, can the headphones work as a bluetooth headset with a phone? can i answer calls? As far as I understand, this feature is available in Tayogo. How good is it? Thank you

Great question and yes you can drag and drop mp3 right onto the heads while its connected via USB to your computer. This this can be done on either of the headphones in this video.Thanks you for your question.

Is the sound clarity on the Aftershokz clear enough to listen to podcasts and audiobooks whilst doing endurance open water or lap swimming..? Or is the sound best preserved just for music only..?

Hi @@gutenbird I've ended up buying the Aftershokz Xtrainerz and use them mostly for swimming, but also for running sometimes. They headphones lack bass, as is mentioned before, but I don't mind it. Off course having no bass is still much much better than the alternative of having no music at all whatsoever, when swimming. When I'm swimming freestyle the noise of my hands hitting the water and my head turning for breathing makes it hard to understand each word in podcasts and audiobooks, unfortunately, so you tend to sometimes loose grips of a story. At the moment I tend to just listen to music only for now, because there is no story to keep track off. It's not really the fault of the audio quality of the Aftershokz, but more because of the nature of the sport of swimming that it is quite noisy when you're splattering around. All around I must say it is so unbelievable cool to be swimming in the ocean or pool whilst listening to music. It's a game changer!

I would like to swim down to 3-4m with the aftershokz. Is it possible?

@Traveltheorychannel

Thank you for the question, the there website say up to 2m. I only used it for lap swimming so I'm not sure how it would hold up going deeper then that.

Man, I got motion sick from the Video, otherwise great

$80 is not budget, they go down to at least $15 I thought I was going to at least hear about something that roughly $30 not $80 for a cheap one for a budget of between a higher price one lol
