Superb sound quality with innovative design
Comfortable and Innovative DesignI recently purchased these open ear headphones, and Iâm genuinely impressed! The design is sleek and lightweight, making them incredibly comfortable to wear for long periods. Unlike traditional headphones that can feel bulky or constricting, these rest gently on my ears without any discomfort.Sound QualityThe sound quality is surprisingly good for open ear headphones. The clarity is excellent, especially for vocals and podcasts. While they may not deliver the booming bass that some may prefer, they do provide a balanced sound that works well for most genres. If you enjoy audiobooks or lighter music, youâll find these headphones perfect.Safety and AwarenessOne of the best features is the ability to stay aware of my surroundings. I love using these while jogging or cycling because I can still hear traffic and other important sounds around me. This makes me feel much safer during outdoor activities!Battery Life and ConnectivityThe battery life is impressiveâI can easily get through several days of use without needing to recharge. Pairing with my devices was a breeze, and I appreciate the stable Bluetooth connection. Iâve also had no issues with latency while watching videos.

I did not expect these to be THIS good!
I have all sorts of high end in ear buds, but as I walk or bike at least 40 minutes every day or so, I have found I only use my Oladance OPEN EAR buds, vs all my in ears, and I REALLY still like my Oladance open ears from good sound, to being super comfortable to wear.BTW, not sure ANY open ear buds are a good choice for bike riding however, because your ear canals are open to the wind. As to these Cleer Arc iis, I wanted something new and FRESH vs my current Oladance Gen1 buds, even vs the new Oladance Gen 2’s. Saw a bunch of Shokz – OpenFit and also OpenRock pro reviews…somehow, they just did not excite me. Thought I’d take a chance with these CLEER Arc ii buds. The minute I put them on and they connected to my Samsung S21 Ultra? it was like, WOW!!. I was not expecting these buds to sound SO amazing..without even using their app for EQ, not even installed yet. I did then install the Cleer app which immediately prompted me to do a firmware upgrade which went flawlessly. All I know is these buds sound FANTASTIC!, esp for open ears, it’s almost like how did they do this? Just like “any open ear buds” there is no major SUB bass here, but bass is REALLY good, tight, and plenty of it. I compared them to my Oladance buds, and to my ears the Arc ii’s sound WAAAY BETTER than the Oladance buds. Not a little, a LOT. Reason is, these buds seem to have a much, MUCH, broader frequency response..rather good bass, nice mid range, and a ton of great sounding treble. Perhaps the treble is ALMOST too much at times, but I love the way they sound They sound super CLEEEER!. When I switch to my Oladance now THEY almost sound like a pair of muffled speakers with something blocking their sound. These Cleer Arc ii’s sound Much Much more open sounding. The Arc iis like all open ear buds don’t get “in ear super loud”..but get loud enough, and way loud enough for me. I played around a bit with the head gestures feature, it sort of works, but I think they will need another firmware upgrade down the road as it’s a bit too sensitive right now. It’s too easy to slightly move your head even a little, and it may make the track go back OR forward, so I took that feature off in the app for now. Be aware there is some very thin plastic covering the part where the buds have to charge. At first, I charged the case but realized I actually did not charge the buds too, because I just didn’t see that VERY thin plastic covering the charge area. When you charge these buds, know there is NO charge light on the external part of the case, it’s on the inside when you open the case. As to comfort, if Oladance is a 10…maybe these are an 8.5-9. I wore them a good 3-4 hours and barely noticed I was wearing anything, but depending upon your ears, PERHAPS you can feel a like a micro pinch on the upper part of your ears. In my case they were just VERY very comfortable for my ears, they stay in place well overall..and if you care, LOOK ultra premium. I tested multi-point between my phone, again it’s Android, and my Macbook Pro…it worked flawlessly. If Cleer can tweak the head gestures these would be untouchable in the current open ear buds catagory. I am amazed just how much I like these Arc ii’s!! As everybody’s ears are different and different sizes, your mileage may vary, but I LOVE these!! ESP how they sound! I had NO weird connection issues, or any trouble AT all with these little guys…

Great headphones with nice feature set. Comparison with LG Tone
I have been a fan of neck headphones ever since LG debuted the original design a very long time ago. Nobody had anything similar, and I was skeptical of them. Why would you want to wear headphones on your shoulders and hug your neck especially during working out? I gave it a try and fell in love (after making a few adjustments.) But LG Tone’s headphones came with some annoying flaws with each successive model, one of which was audio cutting in and out, and the other being that they did not last very long: their headsets died within a year. I had three of them. All died within about a year. Customer service was terrible. LG was flying high on its exclusive design.Then came the copycats. They were even worse.Fast-forward 10 years later, and wireless headphones have become de facto, particularly with the introduction of Apple’s AirPods. The problem with AirPods is that they could easily drop off during more intense workouts. I lost 2 during marathons. That made the races even more than I wanted. Alas, I was never able to locate them — either they were swept away, taken by someone, or crushed by other runners or cars. Who knows?I tried over-the-ear, wireless headphones and all disappointed short of buying the very expensive brands. A running mate recommended I try out Cleer. And so I did. I never heard of that company, actually, but the feature set sounded good: sporty look and design, ability to connect to 2 Bluetooth devices at the same time (so I could answer both my personal and work phones without having to switch over), good sound quality (it had clarity and decent bass when I briefly tried my friend’s), and looked to be able to stay on the ear better.PROS- Quality material- Sat comfortably and securely even during high-intensity workouts- Great sound with decent bass- 7.5 hour tested usage (takes about 2 hours to charge)- Reasonable pricing to LG Tone’s neck headphones- Voice calls sounded good to other side (while drowning out background noise)- Connect up to 2 devices at the same time- Sweat proof at IPX5 (X means that it was not rated against dust protection. Second number is for water protection and is out of 6)- Bluetooth 5.3- Carry case included that also acts as UV sanitizer and battery charger packing enough power for 3 more charges (Manufacturer claim. Didn’t test this out)- Cleer+ App smartphone app allows additional customizations and controls and perform firmware updatesCONS- Volume could be a bit louder, especially if you’re going to use it on an airplane [EDIT: You can make it slightly louder on iOS by going to Settings > Sound > Headphone Safety > and turning off “Reduce Loud Audio”]- Bass could use some more powerCONTROLSTapsEarbuds can be tapped to control music and take/make callsHead MotionDisabled by default, and I did not want to turn it on to test because I don’t want my head to accidentally trigger things while working out. I just want the headset to play music and take/make calls, that’s it.TIP: Should you need to reset the earbuds, put them into the charging case and long-press the “MFB” button for 10 seconds until it says “Restoring Bluetooth Setting” [sic]Overall, I really like this set of headphones after my disastrous experience with the LG Tone neckbands. LG’s original was great, but LG’s subsequent models, their poor customer service, and poorly-executed copycats made me stay away from this type of headphones. Cleer did great with their take on this headphone. Many thanks for the recommendation from my running mate!

L’ho presa perché di tipo open air, cioè nn si infila dentro le orecchie come tutte le altre in air. Ma si sente molto bene. Ha qualche problemino con il multipoint perché nel passaggio da PC a telefonino a volte perde la connessione e devi rimetterle nella custodia per ripristinare la connettività . Con le ultime realise SW il problema è migliorato ma nn risolto definitivamente. Poi usandola normalmente dopo un mese una sera si è spezzato il supporto che serve per stare nel padiglione auricolare destro e nn riesce più a metterla. Nn me la sarei aspettata una cosa del genere, sembra un mancato controllo di qualità . Adesso la rendo.

Ich hatte zum Vergleich die brandneuen Shokz Open-Fit, Marshall Minor III und meine alten Sony mit Kabel, die noch so locker am Ohr hängen (also nicht im Ohr stecken).Ich hatte diverse Tests gesehen/gelsesen und kann einiges bestätigen.Pros: 1. Der Klang ist sehr angenehm. es trägt nicht auf, die Höhen sind fein. Da funktioniert ein Chellokonzert und Progrock ganz famos. Wer “Bums” haben will, kauft sich In-Ears…2. Konnektivität: ohne Schwierigkeiten an zwei Devices anzuschlieÃen. 3. Eine Sprachaufnahme zu Hause mit dem Mikro war viel besser, als in den Videos. Zumindest in ruhiger Umgebung…Cons: 1. Die Bauform ist für meine Ohren zu “eng” – der Bügel ist nicht biegbar und recht steif. Dabei hab ich ziemlich normale Ohren. Da die Ohren mit dem Alter wachsen, mag es bei jugendlichen im Schnitt besser passen – aber nach den Videos hatten mehrere das Problem. AuÃerdem war es zusammen mit meiner Brille noch zusätzlich unangenehm. 2. Latenz: es sind ungefähr 200ms – je nach Betriebssystem und App wird das ausgeglichen. Fürs Gamen leider ungeeignet. 3. Das Case ist unnötig groà und schwer.Kurz zur Konkurrenz:Shokz Open-Fit -> klingen etwas flacher (meine uralten Sonys klingen etwas besser), sind dafür kleiner, leichter und sitzen dabei fast unspürbar. Brille stört nicht! Das Mikro “zu Hause” ist auch ganz famos. Konnektivität: leider nur 1 Device. Latenz: ebenso 200ms. Auch super: das sehr kleine Case (für diese Bauform).Marshall Minor III -> klingen seeehr flach. Das war das sofortige KO-Kriterium.Wegen des mangelnden Tragekomforts (bei mir) sende ich die Cleer zurück und behalte die Shokz.

These are my new favourite headphones. Have been using Shokz OpenRun pros for a long time and loved using them for the gym and running but these Cleer Audio Arc II headphones are so much better!The sound is incredible. They produce such an immersive sound, nearly on par with in ear headphones. The bass is so good for open ear headphones – it’s deep and rich with a balanced oomph! The clarity of the higher range is amazing – such crispness. The sound quality has really blown me away as I wasnât expecting it to be this good.The fit is secure and comfortable. I feel no movement on my 10k runs and they are super secure at the gym, regardless of what exercise I am doing. I wear glasses and they cause no issues at all and so comfortable I forget that I am wearing them. People have pointed out that Iâm still wearing the headphones and I havenât realised!I love that it has multi pairing so that it connects to my iPhone and watch at the same time. It just makes switching between devices so easy. The app allows you to make tweaks to the sound and to the touch controls if you want. Iâve set it to the smart EQ as the sound is perfect for me but if you are a music person you may want to tweak the EQ to suit your own personal tastes.I canât recommend these enough! They are such a great set of headphones that provide the open ear benefits when I am out running without compromising the sound quality!Just buy them

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 â¬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 â¬10.35 of the carriage cost.
