Usage Features
The OpenMove headphones are designed for versatile use, from daily commutes to active lifestyles.
- Bone Conduction Technology: This core feature allows sound to be transmitted through your cheekbones, leaving your ears open to ambient sounds. This enhances safety, especially in outdoor environments where situational awareness is crucial.
- Comfortable Fit: The lightweight and open-ear design ensures comfort even during extended wear, without blocking your ear canals.
- Optional Earplugs: For environments where blocking out ambient noise is desired (e.g., on a train or airplane), the included earplugs can be used. When using earplugs, it's recommended to switch to "Earplug mode" via the EQ settings for an optimized audio experience. To use earplugs, roll them firmly between your fingers and place them in your ears. Remember to switch EQ settings back when you remove the earplugs.
- Intuitive Controls: The strategically placed buttons allow for easy access to all functions without needing to interact with your connected device.
- Voice Prompts: Audrey's voice prompts provide clear feedback on the headphones' status, such as power on/off, pairing, connection status, and battery level.
