so I'm excited for this one the name alone has gotten me motivated here Batman say something Batman would use the bat band there's a thing in the world called the Batman then it needs to be here on the desk so I could tell you what it's all about ear free Wireless hero Bowl hero Bowl with bone conduction sound it's being modeled I was the first choice I couldn't do it and so they ended up with this I think it's not that bad but of course there it is put on your head with the logo in the upright position download the app to calibrate swipe one finger to bring volume up two fingers for the next or previous track and click it once to play pause and take or end a phone call that is so strange looking I mean it's certainly not headphones some light reading with an afternoon cup of tea that's what Jack likes to do connect to your virtual assistant be social be social Jack do you know how to be social at life listen to music and free your ear for your ear I've done videos on bone conduction style headphones before but they looked more like headphones that Raptor on the back of your neck this is unmistakable if you see this thing you're gonna ask some questions yes bat Bend I heard something okay cool now now there is an app I'm supposed to get as well so I should probably do that Batman by studio banana oh my the app has a an average of a 1.3 rating that's a little rough connected sweet there's presets so you can choose between outdoors indoors or a personalized preset oh this is cool alright so you can also set the microphone sensitivity balance between the left and right channel let's say it's just cool like there like that it sticks and it's kind of comfortable - I don't know maybe I don't mind it you could hide it like oh that might be the move I'm not doing anything look I got the ears all right let me play the demo track a lot more vibration than I expected oh the closer you get to the this is much louder down here okay it's quite a bit louder now here's my personalized let me create one here let's just max it we just need more that does not sound great let's just do outdoors like you hear this right now yeah you hear this I mean you can't be listening to this on an airplane or something no that actually sounds better this sounds way better like this what it is is the closer that gets to your actual ear the louder it gets you know it bleeds that this out the sound bleeds out so if you get a closer to your ear the louder that it gets so I did a video a while back that was the first bone conduction audio device that I had tried and the design on those it kind of brings the bone conduction part up in front of the ears if it sits right here and those are usable the trouble with these unless you've got them right over your ears it's just not loud enough maybe that's fine maybe that's where you would end up wearing them anyway the whole premise here is that your ears remain accessible to outside input you're at the grocery store you go for the jog like I said you're on the bike you need to be aware of your surroundings see the trouble is if you don't give that correct mix you end up getting not enough of either not enough of your surroundings not enough of the audio that you're wishing you were listening to now I felt like with that last pair it was good enough but with this I feel like you're probably giving up too much plus I think this thing is expensive how much is this will $250 you want to be that whatever that is you want to be that nice I'm not wearing this I'm not gonna wear it it's not happening if it sounded great maybe I kind of like the idea of not having my ears covered when I'm out but compared to the pair that I tried in the past they did sound better and that I think that counts for something I don't know what to tell you two-fifty man you could get some serious headphones for 250 like the IQ buds that have microphones in them so you can get some spatial awareness Tom say something oh you're amplified right now I don't know who this is for other than the girl on the box some kind of a costume I mean that's I have to try it I got to be on the lookout for that new tech but what I would say is if you're looking for bone conduction look away from these I look the one that's a lot less expensive I will link it down below in the description a company called aftershocks and that one does a better job for less maybe it's for somebody if that's for you I want to know in the comments how you see yourself using that beyond the fact that you're a huge Star Trek fan and it's time for you two to beam beam off into another galaxy far away this episode of unboxing has been brought to you by the new honor 7x and in celebration you can probably tell I've got seven of them
