I absolutly love open ear bone conduction headphones. Really help getting to your surrounding without any audio leak from your headphones. Too bad that i never found one who didn't broke. Shockz ones broke the neck security thing and the left ear headphone. JBL ones can't be recharged anymore onto the right one, as it seems that the earphone doesn't connect fine with the pins in the charging case anymore. And i even tried a cabled one, hoping this one would break as easily. The cable broke connection and it only work if you hold the cable at a specific angle (unusuable in most usages)

Worried now as I only got mine last week from a no-brand seller

I mean, it could also just be me too. I forgot the ticket for the shokz. Bought it "reconditioned" by Amazon for the JBL (and not possible to be repaired by JBL in that case). I would suggest you one tip from those with a back ring security thing, don't lay on the back with it. Even if you rotate it to the entire back of your neck. I didn't broke it there for those that obviously, but i feel it may have loosened it.

Thanks for the tip. I was sitting on a train today and I hit the back security ring against the headrest and the whole headset nearly came off. I was wondering how sturdy it might be. Now I know, thanks!
