Customer Ratings & Reviews

These are comfortable headphones and earbuds - where typical earbuds can be uncomfortable as they need to sit in your ear to work, the design of the Shokz OpenDots 2 is genius - allowing you to have them rest gently on your ear without being inside your ear. This makes long sessions great and comfortable. They also do a really good job of maintaining sound quality. Once in a while one earbud loses connection, but it appears intermittent and likely to be solved by firmware. Overall, it's very rate and could be related to environmental factors. They are also super, super light adding to the comfort. In addition, the battery really does last the full 10 hours before requiring a charge, so you can get all day listening out of them and then you can get 4x that charge by placing them back in the charging case. They also charge really fast, and even seemingly fast on a wireless charger. They work perfectly with any Qi-certified charger (I've tried a few that I have). Overall, I highly recommend these headphones!

These are great headphones for exercise if you come in with appropriate expectations. They are small, open-ear headphones, so the bass basically isn't present. This can result in music sounding a little muddy as the mid frequencies seem over-emphasized. Despite this, the audio is generally good. For podcasts, you're not really even going to notice unless you're used to listening to 99% Invisible with Roman Mars on real headphones or speakers (bass-heavy voice). The battery life is amazing. I've been using these for at least a couple of hours every day, usually more, and when I connect them to my phone, the battery level is showing 60% for the case and 100% for the earbuds. If you keep them in the case, I'd expect you can go at least a week or two without having to charge with moderate use. These, as with any Shokz headphones, are meant for exercise, and I'd say that these are comfortable enough to wear for a couple of hours at a time while still being able to hear the environment around you. If you're going for a run and need to be aware of traffic, these are a great option.
