Why not just say air conduction?
My biggest gripe with both these is that the regular size is too big. The band extends too far back that you can't use it with any chair having a headrest. This is a problem when using it in my computer room since the chair has a headrest, and also in the car. Or it'll interfere with your clothing, like a jacket. And of course you cannot use it while lying down. I realize both models have the mini option. But it's mostly the regular ones that go on sale. Both times I bought mine the mini was retail price while the regular size ones were on sale. So it wasn't worth picking the mini. But I do wonder now whether I ought to have picked up the minis.
I feel most people will fit the minis better. The other ones are really for people with a large head or ladies who would prefer using it over their hair. It's just a shame the minis are rarely on sale.

Agreed. I have a very large head (XL helmets for most sports), and I'm tempted to borrow a Mini OR2P to see how they compare to my Regulars after a few hours. Unfortunately ski season is done for the season, so I won't have that opportunity for months.
i tried this locally, all i feel is just having a small speaker point to my ear directly. and thats it.
When my friend try it, i can still here it outside.
dont get me wrong, having something not blocking ear is great. just that bone conduction feels really just like a selling gimmick.
I tried with earplugs in a noise environment and was really low .for me it wasn't bone conduction like oldest ones

It's off by default. You have to set the EQ to "Classic" to activate it.
The openswim has onboard storage plus bluetooth. It is also waterproof and can be used for swimming
