I used a JBL Flip 4 speaker to listen to audiobooks and podcasts while floating in the pool for a while. Bluetooth doesn’t penetrate more than a few centimeters into water, so I’d just put my phone in a dry bag, tie it to the side of the speaker, and set it adrift. Way less clunky than a headset and worked great
- maxglute 3y agoThere's $100 waterproof bone conduction headphones with built in storage that works great. Speech is pretty trippy and well suited for bone conduction. Only issue is you have to find mp3s of audio, which usually means sailing high seas.
- rimunroe 3y agoThere are, but that limits the number of people listening to one, I don't like the feeling of wearing headphones though, and I didn't want to lose sync with podcast/audiobooks either :)
- underseacables 3y agoI got the JBL Flip 6 for audiobooks! I compared the 4 to the 6 but the 6 had two tweeders that really allowed for crisp narration.
