My favorite bone conduction headphones just got 3 major upgrades - and they've spoiled me

"I need music when I work out. Specifically, classic rock. It motivates me to keep going, so having a headset paired with my watch or phone is a must. I've found bone conduction headphones to be the most comfortable format for me when I exercise, and the new is the best pair I've tested in years. I tested their predecessor last year, the Suunto Wing, and they impressed me with LED safety lights, long battery life, and unique head movement controls."

"The new Suunto Wing 2 launches at $20 less, adds two new safety light modes, and improves the sound quality to be the ultimate in bone conduction technology. What's more, when they're paired with a Suunto watch (like the new Race 2), you can get real-time voice feedback that includes pace, distance, heart rate, and other metrics aimed to keep you focused so you don't have to keep looking at your watch."

"In addition to keeping my ears open to stay aware of my surroundings, the headset's behind-the-neck design keeps them securely attached, even if I'm performing an exercise or activity with extreme movements. The form factor also lends itself to long battery life, with the Suunto Wing 2 lasting up to 12 hours, and the included battery power bank providing another 24 hours. 10 minutes of charging provides up to three hours of listening."

Suunto Wing 2 is a bone conduction headset designed for exercise, offering open-ear awareness and a secure behind-the-neck fit for extreme movements. The headset improves sound quality over its predecessor, adds two LED safety light modes, and debuts at a $20 lower launch price. Pairing with Suunto watches delivers real-time voice feedback including pace, distance, and heart rate, reducing the need to check the watch. Battery life reaches up to 12 hours on the headset, plus an included power bank providing another 24 hours; ten minutes of charging yields about three hours of listening. Controls include a redesigned single long button, a multi-function button for lights and voice assistant, and a USB-C port for quick charging or power-bank use.
