    Two right now. One is a Kobo e-reader. The other is a bone conduction headset. The latter allows me to ride my bike with my tunes but allows me to hear traffic and other environmental hazards. Very comfortable to wear too.

        It’s ok. A lot of people say there’s no bass but I don’t have high expectations for something like this. It’s a tiny speaker after all.

        But if you mean, can it actually even sound like anything if it’s just vibrating your jaw bone, then hell yeah, it’s like a miracle. Very clear.

        Really depends on the fit. If the induction pads sit on your head properly the sound is honestly better than similarly priced earbuds, with the added bonus of no occlusion sounds, which I hate. I get the best results with mine when I wear them under over-ear nose protection earmuffs. Also they can be drowned out easily by regular sounds like traffic. I took them on a flight and couldn’t hear a thing over the engine nose.
        TLDR try before you buy
