These are one of the first bone-conducting headphones for children. If you’re not familiar with bone-conduction headphones, let us fill you in. These sit on your cheekbone, not in or on your ear. There are several benefits to this. One is that you can then still hear environmental sounds – great for kids walking to school. The next benefit is that people with hearing loss can use them, and hear the audio playing. One school of thought is that they reduce hearing damage, but the jury is still out on that one. Since the POGS headphones is designed for kids, we assume that the designing values the durability and quality of the product overall. This also led us to believe that the sound quality will be average. Furthermore, we also assume that there's won't be any heavy bass or low tones to protect the developing hearing senses of the kids.

How we tested

The POGS headphones comes equipped with 2 to 3 control buttons depending on the model. The one we have here is the wireless version and it has 3 control buttons; a Bluetooth switch, a power button, and a play/pause button. Other than that, along control panel are the audio cable port and the USB port. Noise isolating and hypo-allergenic ear cushions to keep outside noise to a minimum so you can keep the volume down. According to WHO, children are vulnerable to the harmful effects of loud noises including listening to loud music. This can then led to permanent or irreversible hearing damage. Safety of the kids while using POGS headphones The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends 85dB as a safe maximum noise level for children for up to eight hours – that’s around the volume of heavy traffic. Some devices can go to 136dB when on maximum volume. Ouch.

OK, so after begging for days, you’ve finally caved and got them their most-wanted piece of tech – perhaps a fancy smartwatch or a Nintendo Switch, maybe even a tablet or a smartphone. Kudos to you, you could’ve just got them a Tamagotchi.One particular aspect that we find odd for the headphones is the size and the placement of the control buttons. For one, we assume that kids won't even care about the control buttons. They'll be wearing them and remove them like it's nothing. So we would prefer to have larger buttons, at most, since we also assume that parents will be the ones to use these controls. Furthermore, pressing the buttons should not be easy. What mean is that, there's almost no opposing force when pressing the buttons and this could result to unwanted presses when the child is lying down.

Additionally, since the one we have here are wireless, it would have been awesome if there's a kind of remote that turns the headset off remotely. So parents can control the pleasure time of using these headphones. Other than the fitting, the earmuffs are also noise isolating and comes with hypo-allergenic ear cushions to keep outside noise to a minimum. Other than that, there's nothing much else to mention about the headphones fit level and comfort. Controls and functionality of the POGS headphones Because children’s and teenagers’ ears are different to adults’, you can’t just sling them a pair of your cans to shut their devices up, we’re afraid. For one, their ears are smaller, but they’re also still developing. If children are exposed to loud sounds, it can cause irreparable damage to their hearing, and maybe even permanent hearing loss. The POGS headphone are engineered to adjust as the child grows. It comes with an adjustable headband sizes and you can adjust the headphone up to three different levels. But kids’ headphones, more often than not, have a volume limiter on them, so developing ears stay safe. In our round-up, we’ve listed the maximum volume on all headphone entries, so you know they’re definitely child-proof.The headphones emit light on the sides. No bright light, but cozy light. In the shape of a tent. How well does the POGS headphones fit As we already mentioned above, children are more exposed and vulnerable to the harmful effects of loud noises including listening to loud music. Because of this, casual headphones that you can easily buy off the market including earphones and earbuds will simply not work. We also do not recommend using them for your children or to any kids. The POGS headphones are rated to last up to 12 hours of continuous listening. Unfortunately, we are not certain about the battery capacity used for these headphones. Battery score: 8.5/10 This feature also works with POGS link cables. It's the cable that lets you attach one POGS headphone to another.
