Apple AirPods Pro vs AfterShokz OpenComm Bluetooth Headsets
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 июл 2024
- I’ve received several requests to test the AfterShokz OpenComm Bone Conduction Stereo Bluetooth Headset to give a little contrast, I included the Apple AirPods Pro. I wanted to show that although Bluetooth headsets like these are popular, they may not necessarily be the best choice for use with business communications and collaboration platforms on a Windows PC. And of course, we test the noise canceling mics as well as range from mobile device which surprised me! Which was your favorite? Comment below!

One use for this headset is for truckers or heavy equipment operators. I watched your review and bought them to wear in the truck. The noise cancelling microphone and the ability for situational awareness makes them perfect. I will let you know how they work when they come in.
Thanks for sharing the use case matt tieken! FYI - if need be, you can use Shokz Opencomm while wearing earplugs! I know, it's wild! Please keep us posted on your experience!

How did they work I am a pump truck operator and the apple in transparent mode still deadened my ability to hear my machine. I need them primarily for phone calls?
I truly don't understand why I see people in coffee shops making business calls with the AirPods Pro lol Like how you suppose to make a good impression with those? Love this test!
THANK YOU
Excelente!!
On the aftershokz for those who are struggling to pair it with a PC, try using a Jabra USB dongle (or similar) and pair that to the headset. It works very well with no issues if you use a UC certified USB Bluetooth dongle like that…..
Will Teams work while connecting the aftershokz via the jabra dongle
I haven't had an issue pairing it, but are thinking through rolling this out in an office...Would pairing the headset with the USB dongle, even with devices that have built-in blue tooth, prevent interference if multiple people are using this?
Kindly advise how do you pair it with a Jabra USB dongle?
I bought the OpenComm based on what you showed in this video. They are excellent! Thank you very much for making this
Hi Simon! You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and sharing your feedback! We truly appreciate it! 😊
I hate watching interviews where people wear Air Pods. They sound terrible. But those AfterShokz sound magnitudes better. The mic test on the street was not only clearer, but louder, too!
Hi Coach Ken! Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts! Take a look at this recent wireless earbuds comparison video including Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro, Jabra Elite 7 Pro, Apple AirPods Pro, and new Logitech Zone True Wireless Earbuds ruclips.net/video/GyZM-LKD9OU/видео.html
I am really enjoying thr opencomm!!
Thank you for sharing your feedback!!!
This is a really good video, but It would be good level the audio for loudness or warnings so the audience may adjust their headphone volume.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I’ll share it with our video editor!

So I hope I made the right call. BTW. No offense, I mean it in a good way, u are my Mr. Myiagi of the professional headphone world. Thanks for everything from Germany, or somewhere else around the world
I've solved many my BT headset issues by pairing to Windows before opening ....I use Itunes on my PC. Same with my old Warcraft game.
Thanks for sharing, Starlight!

THANK YOU! I need a headset for calling my mother, who has hearing problems. This has helped make my choice easy.
Happy to help, Liza!
very nice 👏👍😎💪👋✌️🤩😃
so do you recommend any wireless headsets that work with software like TALKDESK? thanks
Hi Robert! There are many wireless headset options that are compatible with TalkDesk. Here is a link from talkdesk that shows some outdated headsets and in their video they do not recommend wireless headsets support.talkdesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205161253-What-Headsets-Are-Recommended-
However, Jabra has an entire section dedicated to talkdesk and share headset models that are integrated by talkdesk: www.jabra.com/business/for-your-platform/talkdesk
You can also check the Jabra Compatibility Guide that lists wireless headset options: www.jabra.com/compatibilityguide/gallery?thirdPartyProducts=talkdesk_cx_cloud&filters=42d2c2ae-d7e2-4838-bb7c-c5a91cad2214
Hope this helps!
weird question, but can you use both the airpods and the aftershokz at the same time? like would you be able to hear the bone conduction if you are listening to music/gaming?
Hi DLR! Only on way to find out! I’ll add to the list of scenarios to test! Thanks for watching and asking! Stay tuned!
Not a fan of pods or buds for that matter when talking on my phone outside. They cannot handle the wind or busy places which is frustrating for both parties. I also don't know why one keeps falling out and I can't wear them for any long period of time without fiddling with them which usually ends up turning them off. Shokz OpenComm all the way, light and comfortable and can handle outside ambience.
Hi, @fredkelly6953! Thanks so much for sharing your feedback and experience with Shokz Opencomm! Stay tuned for new Opencomm 2 UC version coming soon!

What app do you use for recording to phone? My jabras keep connection for more then 50meters, its a miracle :D
@@CallOneInc stock iphone voice recorder? :)
@@CallOneInc can i get a name of it, would love to try it out? :D
@@CallOneInc my god i got a personal video response. Yeah it helped. Thank you! There is a milion of voice recorder apps and this one seems to be really good. Thanks a lot Danny!
I used the Opencomm and have had no issues with the Microphone using Zoom, Teams, etc. Not sure why you had the problem. Otherwise, great review.
Hi Charles Angel! Thank you for sharing your personal experience. When using, are you paired via Bluetooth directly to your laptop? I’m currently testing new AfterShokz product. Can’t wait to be able to talk about it publicly!
@@CallOneInc Yes, using built in Bluetooth on a Dell laptop. I use MS Teams just about daily and after you've paired the Opencomms, in the settings for Teams, you select the Opencomms for headphone and for microphone. It provides excellent choice during teleconferences.
How did you get the OpenComm mic to work with the iPhone?! I have an iPhone 8 with iOS 14.7.1 and the mic will not work. Works fine on Android and Windows. I tried several factory resets to no effect. I ordered a replacement OpenComm and it's the same issue.
Hi motownlucas, I didn't do anything special. I placed AfterShokz OpenComm into pairing mode and selected from Bluetooth Menu on my Apple iPhone 11 Max Pro with iOS 14.7.1. I'll reach out to my contacts to hear if they have any insights.
@@CallOneInc Thank you!
@@motownlucas my main contact is pulling in other AfterShokz team members to provide insight. He's initial response is: Thanks for forwarding your conversation to us, Danny. Sorry that motownlucas experienced this issue.
The only reason I can think that the mic wouldn't be working with motownlucas' iPhone is if they didn't have the headset selected as their audio source while on a call. I assume that they tried this seeing as they're familiar with technology but I wanted to put that out there just in case.
@@CallOneInc Yes, I can hear others through the headset, but they cannot hear me. Just now I tried recording a voice memo with them and playing it back at medium volume I can just barely hear something. If I crank the volume up I can hear it. So the mic is working I guess, but the level is waaaay too low. When I tested on a borrowed Android phone there was no issue. I'm hoping to test on some other iPhones soon.
His warnings are valid, but his lack of Windows knowledge is apparent. You don't configure AG headphones in the Windows settings, you leave the Windows settings as stereo. You going to the application's audio settings, such as Zoom or Teams, and set the default device to be AG. The behavior you'll experience is that when you're listening to music, and you switch to a call, you'll stop hearing the music. Be aware, your music will still be playing you just can't hear it, because, as far as the application (Media player, Spotify) is a aware the signal is being sent to the stereo device... However, Windows isn't sending it on to the Bluetooth device. Shocks does sell a UC model, that includes a dongle and resolves these issues.
Thanks for sharing and yes, Shokz now has an Opencomm UC version shown in this video Shokz (formerly Aftershokz) Opencomm UC - Overview and Audio Tests!
ruclips.net/video/x8oa2Qw_z0A/видео.html
We’ll be sharing a new video soon that shows the new Shokz Opencomm UC with the new USB-C dongle. And yes, if you are using UC clients like Teams, Zoom, Webex, Google Meet, etc, you can select the audio source directly from there.

Hi Cat H, appreciate your feedback. Folks who use these either love them or hate them. Many trade wearing style and comfort for higher quality audio. Stay tuned for upcoming video featuring the NEW Shokz Opencomm2 UC. There have been some changes.
