Headphone experience et compatibility

Very happy with Aftershokz Aeropex. Excellent sound quality. No drops. Fast connection. I wear watch on left wrist.

I have several pairs and all have worked fine.

I have recently used the Edifier X6 and MPow M30 and also bluetooth receivers to record audio streams.

The BT range before connection drops is somewhere between 8 and 10 meters.

Do they also work well outside? I was having issues with earbuds that lost the signal on one side or both intermittently. I have see some suggestions that music playback doesn't do well outside? Is that your experience?

Best wishes!

I honestly have never had any issues with music playback going from the Fenix 5+, 6 and now the 255. And with several pairs of headphones.

I only use music outside. Watch is wore on the left wrist, but at the moment as I am using a Fenix 6 as well, the 255 is on the right wrist.

I wear my watch on my left wrist and have had the music stop transmitting to two different headset styles - JLab Epic & Jabra.  the headsets remained connected and I could control the music selection from the headset but music was not transmitting.  I gave up and returned the 255

Look for something with a QCC3020 or 3040 chipset

Seems always the same brands crop.up with connection issues - I've seen very similar posts on the Fenix 6 forums.

Its what is inside that counts - not the branding on the box....think chipset first. With decent chipsets I can walk 8 to 10 meters away from a BT reciever before the connection drops - and they will reconnect immediately without any intervention when I go back in range.

Those “low quality” headsets work with my iPhone and iPad.   I think it’s a low quality watch chip set. 

Hi 5135968), what is the chipset on the beats fit pro? Do they supposed to work with FR255 music? I saw online they equipped with the apple H1 but not sure if that's what you meant

They are not exactly earbuds, but an affordable and good headset for sport use that works well with Garmin watches: Miiego AL3+
