The EP735 Bluetooth headphones use the older 40mm driver units and so lose a tiny but of depth and range compared to the EP650’s. This is mostly to facilitate the extra noise cancellation functions without absolutely ruining the battery life by having both. The quality bridges the gap between the EP640 and EP650, with the slightly lower power speakers actually still sounding great because of the noise reduction. Finally, we have the EP636 which take a different approach yet again to the tech. While they do use traditional speaker units, they are designed for on-ear use rather than having over-ear pads. Connectivity The purpose of aptX Low Latency is to ensure that Bluetooth enabled devices audio is in sync with video. The introduction of aptX LL reduces latency and improves the users experience by improving end-to-end audio transmission speeds.

For the first time today, we see a Bluetooth 5.0 device! Bluetooth 5.0 is by default double the speed of previous versions (Provided those versions didn’t have aptX enhancements). The latency is also innately 40ms or lower. This model of Bone Conduction Headphones are designed for everyday use and combine wireless Bluetooth headphones with a local MP3 player. You can use them as a traditional wireless headset and connect it to your smartphone, or you can store your favourite music and podcasts as files directly onto the device itself with the 16GB SD Card.Bluetooth 4.2 is an important update to the Bluetooth Core Specification with many new features and benefits designed specifically for Bluetooth Smart technology, and and has numerous advantages when comparing to its predecessor, Bluetooth 4.1 Rinse them with water if it is dirty (do not immerse it for more than 5 minutes in water. It is not designed for swimming in a pool or the sea.) It is also excellent on hikes as it is resistant to dust and sand. These waterproof bone conduction headphones are rated IP grade IP68. This makes them perfect for outdoor use. Waterproof headphones allow exercise or commuting in the rain without any fear.

This technology allows you to enjoy wireless media in complete sync. This makes the EP650s perfect for those nights where you want to enjoy your movie or gaming session to the fullest, but don’t want to wake the entire house up! Application Despite a different design from conventional headphones, the EP400 offers incredible sound quality. The Bluetooth 5.3 connection allows perfect stability between your audio source and the headset and a fast rate of wireless communication. The August EP650 Bluetooth Headphones have always prided themselves on the combination of comfort, style and convenience with a sound quality that demands to be heard. After years of being a leader in the Bluetooth headphone market, the EP650 has been rejuvenated with the introduction of a new chipset, including Bluetooth 4.2 and aptX LL technology upgrades. The rejuvenation goes further with the introduction of the ‘August Audio App’, capable of tuning the chipset and the improved battery life of up to 15 Hours! If you are using high-bitrate HD stereo audio then perhaps consider a higher version of Bluetooth, but outside of the true techies Bluetooth 4.X versions are more than acceptable.You will find the sound slightly different from your usual listening due to bone conduction technology. The August EP400 headphones retain a very high quality and range of sound while allowing your ears to be open and receptive. Enjoy high-quality audio but still be open to conversation or alerts. This depends on your source device, but most Bluetooth Sources support up to 7 devices (Bluetooth Adapters only support one at a time). The EP400 bone conduction earphones can connect to smartphones (with a mic for calls), TV, games consoles and car stereos just to name a few. Integrated Microphone

Throwing a curveball at the “over-ear” gang we’ve got going so far is the EP400. The EP400 headphones aren’t over-ear, but simply rest on the sides of your head and provide private audio via bone conduction. Connectivity The EP400’s are tiny and light, but also feature-heavy. This means the battery life ends up reaching 10-12 hours rather than into the high teens. They do recharge in under 2 hours, however, minimising downtime that way. A slight upgrade to the EP640, the EP650 use a Bluetooth 4.2 chipset enabling faster data transfer and, crucially, more data for bass. Once again, the wireless transmission of 4.2 is more than capable of preserving streamed or online audio, with only high-quality raw audio files needing compression to travel wirelessly. Creating a happy medium between our lowest entry (EP400, 10 hours) and highest (EP650, 15 hours) the EP636 is able to play for 12-13 hours. You might be wondering where the extra power is going, stopping them from reaching the high teens. Well, it’s all in the mic! This pair of headphones have the most dynamic battery life on the list. Due to ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) having a dedicated On / Off button, the headphones can last up to 18 hours or only 10 depending on ANC usage. The recharge time is faster than the EP640 and a little slower than the EP650, at 3 hours maximum.One of our most popular products, the EP650 Headphones are perfect for all occasions. Simply connect to Smartphones, Laptops, and Tablets via Bluetooth or an NFC tapto enjoy Music with High Quality Sound. For Non-Bluetooth Devices, a 3.5mm Audio Cable is provided meaning you can access the comfort and quality at your desk. Tune Your Headphones in App Starting with a blast from the past, these over-ear headphones are designed with a funky retro style and eye-popping colours. For some of you, that’s enough of a reason right there! The EP650 are by far UK Manufacturer August’s best-selling headphones, and in some ways it’s easy to see why. But what do they really do differently, and are they truly best? Connectivity The EP636 sports the usual 40mm driver units, but due to the on-ear design they are a little more distant and subdued. The quality is the same, but there is more interference between the source and your ears. The benefits are of course lighter weight, slipping them on / off faster and having awareness of colleagues, traffic, members of the public and important noises in your environment. Work out while listening to music, commute in safety, and have fully private listening. Choose these comfortable and practical headphones for your exercise sessions at home, in the gym or outdoors to see how Bone Conduction minimises weight in favour of your performance.
