Suunto Wing Black

I got about 5 hours play time out of the unit. I did have the lights on so I imagine that drained the battery some. I was thinking with a posted 10 hour battery life I could get thru a 50k but I didn’t quit make it. They felt good and sounded good but the battery life I experienced is what’s keeping me away from the 5 stars.
Thanks J

They sound great. I like the long battery life too.

Very good and reliable love it

I have gotten bone headphones from Amazon, Ebay, and tume I've have twenty or more.What I like best, the sound, doesn't tikle my ears, comertble, and it come with its own charger.Fits nicely in pocket, just charged to full 30 minutes. Happy face �

To start, I wear these for work in >100dB environments so I wanted to use earplugs with these and I actually found this betters the experience.Without earplugs in, they aren’t support loud but usable in most day to day environments. They do sound a little flat to me but that’s because bass is hard to translate through bone conduction. It’s not a deal breaker just nature of the product type. But ear plugs brings that bass in a little bit but can sound muffled at times.It holds up very well to sweat and grime and in extremely loud environments I can still things clearly without issue. I’m thrilled with the value.I don’t see visible charging indications to let you know how charged they are and haven’t found it in the app yet but they’re extremely compatible with Apple products which I enjoy and I mean that by they’re quick to connect, faster than my AirPods Pro in some cases.They are wear and forget kind of comfortable. I have no idea I’m wearing them most of the time already.I highly recommend

I’m no ultramarathoner, but I do like to regularly hit 7 to 10 mile runs. My AirPod pros were fine, they never fell out of my ears, were decently sweat resistant, and could reliably last about 3 hours. I avoided the bone conduction stuff because I thought it was just a fad for something that sounded terrible. The last race I did head some rain to start it and immediately my AirPods cut off and I was left with two hours of silence and running. Lame. I figured what the hell, I’d give it a shot and return them if they suck.Heres my biggest takeaway based on my experience and what I thought they’d be like after watching a dozen review videos beforehand:-The sound is dope. Way better than I thought it would be. I’m honestly pretty deaf and have some hearing loss, and I don’t even run with them on full blast. It’s not the same as my old headphones in terms of sound quality, but it’s more than not bad… it’s actually pretty freaking good. Rock, Rap, Classical, whatever it’s way more than I’d thought I’d get.-The battery just goes and goes and goes. Couple that with the charging pack that’s honestly pretty light, It’ll never die on you unless you’re a bonafide ultramarathoner or an ultralight thru hiker.-having dropped it in water already, the IP67 holds up. No more weird muffled buzz from when your headphones get water trapped or shutting off mid run-my favorite part. On a light settings my, you have a constant soundtrack going on while still being able to talk to people and go on about your day. I literally wear them 24/7 now. The dual BT connection works perfectly so I can bounce between my phone and my Garmin seamlessly. Very comfortable and easy to use. Fit like a glove and don’t shake off unless you’re head banging at a creed show.-the only things I don’t find myself using are the head tilt controls… just driving or walking around will trigger it, and the LED lights. Great feature but most of my miles are on trails.For the price they’re more than worth it for what you get.

Great sound and very comfortable

So far, after a week of use battery life has been good, though I have not used them till the battery ran out. It is handy to recharge with the included power bank.

I am disappointed in the volume level. Even at max volume they are not that loud. I tried setting the volume to "outdoor" using the Suunto app. There is little difference between "normal" and "outdoor" volume level.

I hope Suunto can address this deficiency with a firmware update. I would not purchase these again unless the volume issue is addressed.

The buttons on the SUUNTO wing feel bery high quality (unlike my two last failed Shokz pro headphones). The lights on the side of the headphones are very bright at night. I typically wear them about 4hrs a day. They're pretty comfortable and only need a few breaks from them here and there. My favorite part is the portable battery that lets you top them off ok the go.

I use them when I'm running and cycling. It can be hard to hear them when there's a lot of traffic

Great pair of headphones!

Not as loud as in earphones, bit loud enough and safer

Great sound quality, especially for running. This is perfect for podcasts or just to have music on the run. Very easy to maintain situational awareness in the woods or urban setting.

👍🏿

This was the best pair earbuds that I have but the only thing that I didn’t like is they cut one size fits all

They are good quality. I like that the sound is clear and the music quality is decent. I especially like that I can sweat and not worry about my suuntoheadphones

I love them still snowing around here I can’t wait to start running

Awesome, no more earbuds falling out when moving. Perfect. The only issue that it could be a little more snug around the back of the head. My hair is cut short so there is not much to hold the rear band up.

Love the open ear and enjoy the connectivity.

Love the charging stand

Gave this to my husband for Christmas. Easily paired with Garmin watch. Used on 3 hour run in high winds yesterday and worked well.

Grateful for all day.

These have rarely left my head for the last year.
The Bad
- The Wing will not overcome ambient noise thats loud. Examples being the Gym, Loud rooms, Loud vehicles ect.
- After about a year they started disconnecting and reconnecting randomly, no matter what I do. doesnt matter if I uninstall, reinstalled, unpair, pair. I am currently just tolerating it.
- If you lose the charging port you can still use the included cable. But Suunto does not offer a stand alone replacment charging port you can buy. If you lose it, thats it. You're stuck using the charging cable.
- Buy back up charging cables. They are pretty cheap online. But the design is proprietary. If you lose the port and your cable, you will have no way to charge it.
- The Wing has no on board storage, so you will need your phone to listen to music with them on a run. The range is decent before it cuts out, about 25 to 30m.
- It does work for phonecalls, but you have to be in a quiet place and speak loudly for the other party to hear you. "you sound muffled" is the biggest complaint I get from friends and relatives.

The Good
- I forget I'm wearing them all the time. Which speaks to their comfort. I wear them so I can watch or listen to books without interfering with anyone else's space.
- Funny enough these are great for the gun range and working with loud equipment. IF USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH EARPLUGS. Since earplugs amplify the sound considerably while wearing the Wing, these are paradoxically the best noise canceling head phones possible.
- Battery Life is more than long enough, even after a year of use with then being on constantly. I only charge them at night.
- The button layout is very easy, and responsive.
1 click* pause/play, answer/hang up
2 click* skip song
3 click* previous song.

- I also like the light up feature, I cant attest to how visible it is, but it is some piece of mind when running at night. (I still bring a head lamp on night runs.)
- Situational awareness in public or when running is also a very nice feature of the design
- Ive never tried to swim with the Wing, so I cant speak to it.

Conclusion
- I'm buying the upgraded version to try out soon.
- Need a firmware update to fix connectivity dropping out
- On board storage for media, so I can leave the phone behind on runs, or maybe synch with the watch to play media off the watch (maybe thats already a feature, I havent used the SUUNTO watches)
- Offer a stand alone charging port for sale for when folks lose them.

Again, SUUNTO still has my buisness, I love these headphones. Customer service was responsive too by the way. Personally I would recommend the SONIC for the casual folks and the AQUA for the more serious athletes. The WING is kind of the middle ground, where you may as well go up to the AQUA or down to the SONIC.

Hope this helps

Rarely, very rarely can you give anything 5 stars these days. I own MANY Bluetooth earbuds. But these Suunto Wings actually rate at 5 stars to me. They perform way better than I expected.

As good as usual

I used my new audio headset on a recent trip to Routan, Honduras. OMG, it's a game-changer hands down. I love Suunto products, but this product is a joy to use, with zero ear discomfort even after five hours on a flight.

Easy to pair with he video screen on the airplane, making viewing a movie and listening with my Suunto audio system.

Open ear headphone greatness! Sound quality is great, the built-in microphone is even better!! Super comfortable to wear daily
