Kaibo Verse

It's a good look. Feels a bit clunkier over the ears than the Flex, but the controls all being in the right side is simple and convenient. The sound quality is very good, as expected.

Bought this about a month ago for $69 price now is $49. The claim of 6 hours is in reality about 4 hours then headphones shut off. Takes about an hour to fast charge. This is the first set I have worn and love them. I would have given them 5 stars but the issues above were the deciding factor.

I like the sound, but the controls are another story. I prefer buttons.

It worked good the first day . Then I went to recharge it and there was no light indicating it was charging. My son looked at the unit and said the battery is ruined. So I would like to talk to someone to get a new headset. John Braun 605-929-8355 thanks

They work great, but I do wish that they were adjustable to fit the head

The bone conduction headphones are great for listening to music and podcasts while having the ability to hear noises in the surrounding area.

The color is really and and my ears does not hurt. Most of the time when I use my airpods or earphones, the inside of my earlobe hurts, but kaiboaudio make sure that it is done by vibratimg sound waves. My ears don't hurt when I use it. It's really good! I love it!

From previous experience I was opposed to bone conduction headphones, but these are So Comfortable I pretty much forgot they were there. The music became so seem less it was like the sound was just in my head. Highly recommend.

I love my Kaibo Verse, they are so light in weight but the sound is great!

I was excited when the product came on my radar. Been looking for a good pair to use while riding my bike. Purchased them a and happily waited for them. When they arrive things looked promising but the fit and sound wasn't for me. They may work perfectly for others but not me

These are perfect for people who don't really feel comfortable wearing regular headphones. My daughter has always wanted a good pair of headphones but could never get those in-ear styles to feel comfortable. I'd spend $100 for her to never use them! These are perfect for her! I initially got these for me, but I decided to let her use them due to how they work. She instantly fell in love and I'm now out a pair of bone induction headphones because she's always using them. The battery life is nice and they sound really good. Far better than I would've expected for something like this.

REALLY, REALLY LIKE THESE. These Kaibo Verse are comparable to those other brands costing twice as much from my limited testing of co-workers brand names. I used these for a solid 10 days - every day - and then left them in the back seat pocket of a delta flight. I know... totally my fault. I discovered my error too late to salvage the situation. Regardless, I did use them long enough to discover some awesomeness. Such as: crazy good battery life, easy pairing, great sound quality in a true bone conducting fashion - with minimal to zero "bleed" to those around me. I do not recommend these if your primary need is music - not a ton of amazing music sound and bass - but hopefully you know that is the case with all bone-conducting earphones. That said, these are indeed all purpose and really shine for voice calls and voice work like audio books. Just flat excellent - I can hear everything going on around me and enjoy my books or take calls like someone is talking to me in the room. Also great for using driving direction with waze or google maps with others in the car - no disruption to the conversation(s) happening in the car. Also and perhaps most importantly, these are light and comfortable for literally all-day use. I really do recommend these highly.

Game changer. I was recently introduced to bone conduction technology by a someone at my gym and was intrigued by the ability to hear audio while still having the ability to hear the outside world. I did some research on various brands by reading reviews here & on Amazon, and decided to buy the Verse from Kaibo and a more expensive model from another brand with good reviews. I decided to buy both to test them out for myself. These headphones are game changers if you're looking to have headphones that allow you to hear music/podcasts/phone calls while keeping the outside world open to your ears. High quality over the ear headphones are still my preference when I want to immerse myself in music or disconnect from the outside world but they are not ideal otherwise. I've never liked the feel of ear buds inside my ears for long periods of time and they also disconnect me the outside world. After listening to both and wearing both during workouts, I prefer the Kaibo model primarily for the way they handle bass at higher volumes (less vibration). Also, I prefer the touch sensors on the Kaibo for pausing, volume, skipping etc. The fact that they are considerably less expensive is a bonus and frankly is a mystery. I'm keeping the other brand but giving them to the wife :) I highly recommend these ear buds and really happy to have discovered bone conduction technology. I find myself using them all the time now and not just for workouts. They are great for around the office as they allow me to wear them and listen to podcasts, talk on the phone etc while getting work done but still able to communicate to colleagues when needed. Great job Kaibo! I look forward to future models.

I highly recommend the Verse for the gym and running. They offer incredible sound, and dont fall off during my workouts. I used to use Bose wireless earbuds, but these are a great alternative because now I can hear everything thats going on around me. They are also extremely comfortable, and havent caused any pain which I have felt with other headphones before. 5/5 stars!

I was honestly shocked with how good the sound quality was! I have been an avid user of the AfterShokz OpenRun on my bike rides for the last year, and was searching for a new pair of bone conduction headphones. I also tried a few cheap brands from Amazon that my friends purchased but it wasn't the same. I decided to finally try these because it wasn't too expensive and WOW! I was really impressed with the sound, its even better than AfterShokz. It is super clear & crisp, and also very comfortable during my long trips. I'm going to get the Flex now for the extra battery life!

Great sound, coupled with the convenience of bone-conducting: can do my workout and listen to TV and my family all the time. And a great way of getting our teenage daughter to be connected while listening to music!!!

Sound quality is top tier! I’ve never used headphones that have this open ear technology before and I was worried that it would be residing sound quality and noise cancelation but the opposite is true. I’ve always had sensitive ears and have struggled with earphones that can fit comfortably inside, but this design allows the bud to sit on the outside of my ear and I can still hear everything just as well as before. I think this design is perfect for being on runs because you can still have your wits about you to stay safe while also listening to your music through high-quality speakers. I was also wary at first of the design that goes behind your head because I didn’t think it would fit my head the way it fits the smaller-looking heads in the photos, but it is relatively adjustable because of the slack in the back. The cord in the back doesn’t have the irritable rubber lining that sometimes catches on your hair so there is no need to stress about pulling and tugging. They truly have a 6-hour battery. In reality, I have used these consistently for about 8 hours while traveling to just listen to music and they didn’t start to die until the 8-hour mark. The Bluetooth connectivity is top tier as well. A lot of the time, these devices are advertised to be able to hook up to multiple devices with Bluetooth but they can’t even sustain one connection, but I have this one connected to both my phone, computer, IPad, and my cousins’ tablet. Never have I needed to do a disconnect and reset. To initiate the Bluetooth, simply turn these on and they connect right away. The setup is easy to get going by following the directions in the box it comes in as it outlines the step-by-step procedures in clear and easy wording. Overall, these headphones use a creative and innovative design that prevents discomfort for the ears while sustaining premium sound quality. If you want a hassle-free Bluetooth device, this is the one for you!

Unfortunately I am not pleased with the fit. I love the operation of the headset, sound is very clear. I have issue with the area it presses upon my tragus, therefore I will be returning my set. I've worn them for a week and it is still the same.

Great for working out. These are a wonderful alternative to in-ear headphones. One of the things that I don't like about my headphones is that when I wear them I can't hear things going on around me. These bone-inducing headphones allow for good sound while still letting me hear everything going on in the world. But when I say Good sound I mean not great. These are wonderful for podcasts or listening to lots of talking, but if you want to enjoy the music the range just isn't there. That said I use these for running and not having my earbuds hurt my ears make these a fantastic solution. They stay in place while I run and I really enjoy that after an hour they still haven't' fallen out of my ears or caused any ear pain.

These are amazing. My new favorite. I love how it sounds. It pairs like a breeze and multi-connect is the new must-have feature. Not the biggest fan of auto pause, seems to do so falsely more often than being useful, but I know I'm the minority in that feeling.

AWESOME Alternative to Shokz Bluetooth Bone Conduction Headphones! These are my new favorite headphones - they beat out my airpods pro, my over-ear noise cancelling headphones, and my aftershokz headphones. They are actually bone conduction. unlike other cheaper brands that just look like knock-off shokz headphones. Below are the pros and cons from my use of them so far: Pros: 1. When working 5/6 feet away from a coworker while listening to oldies but goldies but on these, the coworker said it wasn’t loud enough to bother them (they had to struggle to hear the music). They could only recognize the songs when I was about a foot away at ear level. So these can be great for walking outdoors, listening to jams in the office, and for just general wearing everywhere. 2. These headphones are well-designed and comfortable. They’re made of titanium alloy which is the same as most of the shokz headphones. They are also super lightweight at only 27.2 g. I think the lightweight feature really helps with long-lasting comfort. I’ve been working with these on for the full work day, and they have yet to bother me. They can easily be worn with eyeglasses, sunglasses, a bucket hat, and multiple ear piercings. For reference, I have a tragus piercing, a forward helix, a conch, and multiple helix and lobe piercings - bone conduction headphones are by-far the best headphones for those of us with lots of ear gear. They don’t irritate the ear and don’t get caught on any of my earrings. The best part is that they don’t have to go in my ear canal which often irritates my conch and tragus. 3. The sound quality is excellent for music, videos, and podcasts. I actually have a little bit of trouble hearing other people when listening to my music at a volume above 75%. If I lower the volume, I can hear other people talking while listening - so in that sense, they will be a better and safer option for when I use them out walking. 4. Setting up these headphones was super easy. I simply charged them upon arrival just to be safe. The next day, all I had to do was replace the rubber cap on the charging port and then push the only button available for 5 seconds for it to turn on. It was super easy to connect to my iPhone and Macbook Pro via BT connection and it’s easy to connect between them. To turn it off, I just push that same button for about 10 seconds. 5. The charging port has an attached rubber cap (so it doesn’t come off so you tehcnically can’t lose it) to support being water-resistant (IP-45), dust resistant, etc. Additionally, the charger is USB-C so I already have lots of USB-C cables and charging outlets around. It has super fast charging. It takes ~1 hour to fully charge and has lasted me more than 6 hours on a single charge (I have been using these mainly for podcast and music and videos). 6. Additionally, these easily connect to multiple devices, but keep in mind these are not an apple product so while they connect easily to apple products, they don’t have the ability to know which of your apple devices they should automatically connect to like airpods do. Not a major dealbreaker, but just something to keep in mind. 7. These headphones use wearable detection technology - the headphones can sense if you remove one ear or both and will automatically pause whatever you were playing. 8. The wireless range for these were about 10 meters. Perfect for a small gym or apartment. 9. The packaging for these was done well and the box looks like a competitive brand (not like an off-brand) making them a great gift item too. 10. Oh did I mention? These are great for working out and everything else under the sun minus running the rain or water sports. 11. Lastly, the price. For $65.99, you really just can’t beat these. You get a top quality product with some of the newest technology that is comparable to the top brands but for an affordable price. Cons: 1. These headphones look like they’re made of plastic which is nice for hair (doesn’t get stuck on my ponytail hair like silicone-wrapped headphones, but they feel a bit cheap to me? As mentioned above, the look and design of the headphones are great but they just feel a bit cheap. I feel better knowing they’re made of the same material as those from shokz brand, but still - it’s about tactile feeling. 2. The fit of the back part of the headphones is a bit weird. I have a 54.5 cm circumference head size. The strap in the back sits on the back of my neck. So if I hunch, the headphones move a bit. It’s not a big deal but I wish I could adjust the size of the headphones - maybe in the updated version in the future? 3. The voice used by these headphones to signify powering on/off and whether they’re connected/disconnected doesn’t sound as clear as I would like, but it’s not a major issue. It could just be as simple as a difference in dialect. 4. Using these headphones for meetings, video chatting, and phone calls: My friends say my voice comes through clearly on the phone when using these for calls, but I feel like the other person’s sound doesn’t come through that great. However, I think I need to test it out a little more with different types of phones so this is still a pending negative. Things I didn’t get to test yet: 1. It has smart touch controls but I haven’t explored yet so I can’t review yet. The smart controls are for pause, play, volume control. 2. These are supposed to last 6 hours but I have yet to try them out on a long run so I could test these out for more than 2-3 hours at a time. Once I can get these done, I’ll report back if there are any major issues. Overall, I’m very happy with these headphones. I will definitely be following this brand and am considering trying out their other headphone option available on Amazon. If you are a runner, work out regularly, have a bunch of piercings that make earbuds the most annoying thing ever, and just like comfy, well-made, lightweight headphones, these Kaibo Verse bone conduction headphones are for you. Quality sound and technology for an unbeatable price.

Love them. I was a little thrown off when I first put them on my head, the ear piece wouldn’t fit in my ear, than I realized these are NOT made to go in the ear, just supposed to go close to the ear so you are aware of your surroundings, which I absolutely love. I have a pair of noise canceling ear piece and when I would walk my dog at night it was hard to hear cars, people etc… these are going to work perfectly. The sound is amazing and I love love love how they fit, not that I figured it out. I was almost ready to pack them up and send back, so glad I didn’t.

pretty good quality, comfortable and clear sound. I did not rate it a 5 because the volume does not go loud enough.

I like it the only thing that I wish it had was to be able to answer the phone without touching the screen
