the sambal jungle jungle replaced the Jay humble this is one of the most requested items I've ever had Lou you gotta try them out now some of you are private like what's this angle and why should I care right so I made a video a little while ago about these headphones that use a technology called gon conduction look at me I'm moving a box in what else am i I'm playing basketball maybe they actually don't sit over your ears but instead behind them I was impressed with those joggers bikers where you can't obstruct your hearing but you still want to listen to something while jungle took it a step further rather than have a dedicated set of bone conduction headphones they built the bone conduction into sunglasses so now they just looks like a regular pair of sunglasses but you're listening to music now these things I think they earned a bunch of money on Kickstarter people were all pumped up they were like well that's cool I got the sunglass that no one needs to know that I'm listening to something some extra lens colors that's like the smokey type of black there this one is blueish kind of reflection to it the Panther I believe is the official name the jungle Panther some stickers decals lots of them Jack can put these all over his skateboard whatever he wants to do okay cool how do we get this guy open over here now they connect your device via mother the mother of my children that was the mother of my children calling now they use Bluetooth to connect your device right so anything you want to broadcast it's happening wirelessly it'll work on iOS Android you name it how do I will write for plus hours of playtime it has a touch control on the arm of the sunglasses hard case here there they are and that's what the sunglasses look like kind of look like a pair of Oakley's or something like that now the magic happens in the backside here this is where the bone conduction magic takes place so if I press this down see that if I hold it it's flashing blue that should mean that it's in bluetooth pairing mode jungle panther and we're paired whoo okay so I've got a little tint going on I'll be back they feel like regular sunglasses am I fooling you Tom they look like regular sunglasses or what we're gonna play something here it's kind of this odd sensations out of my ears obviously I mean I still hear my surroundings the music is kind of almost like a background track right now all right because you can feel the vibration this is not an exact one-to-one replacement for a non ear over ear in-ear headphone right it requires a slight shift in your expectations it's not like this pounding thumping it's just like music is on kind of in your head it seems to be originating from within the low end probably suffers the most in this particular scenario to have something on when you're out and about so they're still making noise right but it's Bose seeing a form of vibrations it kind of sounds a little bit muffled until you put them on I mean I wish it was a little bit louder let me try a podcast real quick the world-famous New York Rick of the MMA our Ariel Helwani actually I feel like podcasts actually sound a little bit better I think the reason for that is because these things do well in the kind of mid-range in the treble zone maybe more so than the low-end you're trying to get your podcast in on the way to work you like to take the bike these work these do the trick okay so tom is calling me right now and this thing is blinking can I just answer it from here I want I can with the touch I can just touch the side to answer it okay now Tom how do I sound like decent or what like a bluetooth situation in a vehicle yeah you know what you sound pretty good too did you ever think you and I we'd be conversing over sunglasses before no you didn't think so I got a news flash for you that's what we're doing I'm gonna hold these up to the microphone tell the people something really important okay well done tom you can pause it by tapping here and I believe you can also skip tracks by swiping oh that did work the bone conduction thing is kind of a different thing than what headphones are capable of right now an alternative maybe you need to keep your faculties about you all right now not everybody needs to be involved but you don't mean to be cut off from the universe I'm pretty sure it's is gonna be the same right moss green blood ruby ash titanium Oasis blue I just noticed that these lenses they go from blue to yellow it's kind of cool I'm the kind of guy when I look at a Kickstarter I look at some new emerging product I'm always there's a healthy dose of skepticism from the get-go but in this particular case I would say these things met my expectations it's pretty much how I expected them to operate I didn't see them as a replacement for headphones but instead to listen to things on the go an alternative way imagine you're at the Blue Jays game at the baseball game and you have the broadcast on you're watching the game with your sunglasses as you would be and then you could be streaming from your phone in the actual audio broadcast and it's not even gonna be bothering anybody the types of scenarios in which these are perfect have it necessarily all been discovered yet these are 119 bucks and there's a lot of colors so it looks like this still on pre-order how much money did they raise two million bucks eleven thousand three hundred forty nine backers it will not sound as good as giant over ear headphones or even earbuds for that matter but the tech is different and that's the reason you probably want these and I love to see new tech companies try and vicious things who knows maybe the b2 takes it to another level we'll see
