Whether going for a run, swimming, or biking, bone conduction earbuds are a great way to enjoy your music while leaving your ears open to hear your surroundings. Unlike traditional earbuds, which sit inside the user's ear canal, bone conduction earbuds send vibrations through the cochlea to create sound. This not only allows users' ears to remain open but also reduces the risk of inner ear infections and creates less strain on the middle and outer parts of the ear while listening for long periods.
