[blindLaw] Bone conduction & open-ear headphones

[Tai Tomasi]

I like bone conduction headphones. You can also buy them corded so that there would be no latency with your laptop.

The cut off in speech with the Bluetooth headphones isn’t perfect but there’s a jaws setting you can change to make that slightly better I forget which one it is. I use those often at work though. I will tell you though ever since I went to Windows 10 I found that multi point pairing does not work very well. For example, I cannot seamlessly switch between my iPhone and the screen reader on the computer like I used to be able to. Good luck.

I’m thinking now of shifting to bone conduction or open-air headphones, but not sure how efficient they would be when I pair them with my laptop through Bluetooth, as I think there is usually some delay with the sound of the screen reader when using Bluetooth headphones.
