Ear (Open)

Hmmm usually Open Style Earbuds like the Opendots generally Average sound quality due to their open nature, i own the Bose Open earbuds and they are good for what they are but it will never be equivalent to an In-Ear. If you dont mind Earhook versions i will recommend either the Cleer Arc 3 Music or Nothing Ear (Open) both a generally pretty good but albeit a bit largen then the Opendots you have.

I like my Nothing Ear Open quite a lot. Works well at all times and I like the design of it.

Connectivity is terrible for some earphones . I bought nothing open and in the gym it wouldn’t connect but in other places it worked fine . I never had the same issue with my AirPods Pro or JBL rock headphones

Im using - Shokz Run Pro when i run - Nothing Ear (Open) when I commute or workout. Gamechanger. - Soundcore Aerofit 2 pang harabas - and Galaxy Buds FE for daily, travel and everything else. If I had to choose just one, Galaxy Buds.

I'm really happy with my nothing ear opens. Depending on your ear they might hurt under the helmet but for me its perfect. Personally its really important that the ear canal is open because of the elevation changes if the sound will cancel out at some point because the pressure gets too high. The helmet inserts are also sweet heard only good things but its a bit expensive just to use for skiing. Before the nothings i had sony linkbuds open but the nothings are way better.
