  • Bone conduction headphones don’t touch your ears directly. They transmit sound vibrations through your skull, so it sounds like the music is inside your head. It also leaves your ears open to hearing outside sounds normally instead of muted… There’s no noise cancellation, but it allows you to use earplugs or other ear protection and still have music.






  • I have an LG UltraGear+ which I’ve had for about 2 years now, and I’m happy with it. It looks noticeably better than other monitors I’ve owned before. I don’t have any noticeable wear or retention yet. I do use it for media and gaming mainly, so usually don’t have fixed graphics on it for extended periods. Maybe I would if I played the same game constantly, I dunno, but so far so good.

    The only thing that bugged me at first was that the screen dims slightly when the picture gets suddenly brighter, like if you move a bright window across monitors, but it’s pretty subtle and I’ve gotten used to it at this point. I don’t even notice it anymore unless I’m looking for it.

    The main downside is that it was easily twice the price of my other monitors, and that’s probably the only reason I wouldn’t buy another OLED.
