This is my first experience with wireless headphones that aren’t over the ears noise cancellation style, and I got to say that I was really surprised how useful they are. I only use other headphones now for traveling or work meetings and these stay on my ears for a lot of the day, every day. The way that they sit on your ears is light and comfortable but secure enough to run or ride a bike, and I feel more comfortable wearing them outside since my awareness of traffic and other noises is truly unimpeded. However the sound they produce is really clear and rich and better than any other sport headphones I’ve tried. The clamshell glasses like carrying and charging case is the perfect size and shape to fit smoothly in a pocket or bag and much better than the AirPods style pillbox case which is easier to lose at the bottom of a bag or fall over on a surface. And since they are so easy to snap in and out of the case, I’ve never once had to deal with a battery low warning. I just naturally want to store them in the case which keeps them charged. All in all, these headphones are perfect for listening to podcasts or music while going about day to day life without sacrificing your awareness of the world around you.

I have used the original Arc’s since they were released. My commute is a 2 mile hike back and forth to my office and the Arc’s have been my companion through rain, snow, and heat and never failed. So when the ARC II SPORT’s were introduced I just got them as soon as I could. They are the old ARC’s but with so much more and for some reason a more solid feel. Especially the case is smaller, more robust and looks great. There are also new features and I love them all, especially the wind noise reduction feature, it works wonders when you are about and about.
I do not think there any other open air buds available with this feature set, audio quality and general usability. Only one problem, I forget I have them on and have been very close do something that would drown or damage the earbuds simply because I do not know I have them on. They are extremely comfortable to wear!

Some people just don’t like earbuds. My wife is one of those people. She particularly hates them when she’s engaged in any type of physical activity which happens frequently since she’s a yoga instructor. At the same time, she doesn’t like what she perceives as a substandard audio experience from open ear headphones. We’ve tried a ton of different open ear brands and styles but so far none have offered especially good audio.This is an exception. These headphones are everything that you’d expect from quality open ear models: light, comfortable, water resistant, good battery life, etc. The connectivity is also excellent and the ‘multi-point connectivity’ feature is very welcome. What really sets these headphones apart is the audio quality. They’re simply the best that I’ve heard from open ear form factor headphones. Once you install the Cleer+ app and adjust the EQ they’re even better. Very highly recommended product!

I just received my ARC II Sports…..I wear ‘phones every day as I walk my dog 3.5 miles. I normally wear Apples’ AirPod Max. Love these open ear headphones but was looking for something I could wear while Mt Biking. I have used Shokz while riding but because of their design, they sound flat with very little dynamics because the drivers are so far away from the ear canals. The ARC II’s seem to have their drivers designed to work as they have been built for the geometry of the Earbuds! Great separation and imaging while creating a very inviting sound signature! I like how they feel when wearing them as they do not have to give an electronic version of of ambient sounds you actually can hear what’s going on around you. These are my first impressions from my first hour of wear…I expect them to “break in” and smooth out a taste….While they really cannot compete with the Apples full size headphones, they do very well indeed considering their design…blown away by their clarity, both high freq. and low!!! Looking forward to my mt. bike ride tomorrow using these beauties!

Hi magoo63, thank you for the awesome review and rating.

I purchased these after a lot of research, quality of sound was great but just didn’t fit my ears so well. The reason why I’m writing this review is not to complain about this product but my annoyance of the return system with Amazon.I class myself as a good customer of Amazon and when I tried to return product after 1 week I was told that I would have to organise return myself. Recieved labels from Amazon and I was informed by my local Post Office that they could not post it because of batteries so only option was to get DHL to collect at a cost to me of €48 which I thought was a lot. I would have thought that Amazon would have arranged collection for this product as it was only a week old. I’m very dissatisfied with the return system offered and Amazon say they will reimburse me up to €10.35 of the carriage cost.
