Excellent quality bone-conduction headphones with innovative hands-free controls and good sound quality and comfort
At road.cc every product is thoroughly tested for as long as it takes to get a proper insight into how well it works. Our reviewers are experienced cyclists that we trust to be objective. While we strive to ensure that opinions expressed are backed up by facts, reviews are by their nature an informed opinion, not a definitive verdict. We don't intentionally try to break anything but we do try to look for weak points in any design.
Once out of the box, it was as easy as turning them on and connecting to my phone via Bluetooth. I didn't need an app, and though the Suunto Connect app allows for customisation, the initial setup is very simple and I found the headphones paired seamlessly and quickly with my phone every time. While these buttons are good for controlling things when you're running, cycling often requires you to have both hands on the bar – which is where the Wing's 'Head Movement Control' comes in. This feature allows you to skip to the next song or answer a phone call simply by shaking or nodding your head instead of pushing a button.
That said, these two issues are something that affects virtually every bone-conduction headphone, and as such, I would not really mark the Wing down for it. These types of headphones are worn with increased spatial awareness in mind, rather than for the best audio quality.
Music only play time: ≧10H. Used with powerbank: ≧30H Music play time after the LED lights in the constant light: ≧4HOn the more expensive side when it comes to bone-conduction headphones, but it does offer a lot of features and quality for your money.The headphones were excellent in allowing me to listen to music while running and cycling, and the sound quality was excellent.
