I wanted a pair of open earbuds to use while working outside and taking the dog for a walk, with the main concern being able to hear what was going on around me. I’ve used ambient mode for a lot of the ear buds, but they still leave a pressure in my ears that bother me after long durations. So, I wanted to give the open earbuds a try. I saw Shokz OpenFit2 was rated as one of the most comfortable open earbuds, so I decided to pick up the OpenFit2+ as they were just releasing. Pros: - Open Ear design. - Super Comfortable. - Great Audio Quality. - Crytal clear Calls. Cons: - Can feel loose if not properly fit. Setup: In the box, Shokz keeps it simple with just the earbuds, case, and a short USB-C to USB-C cable. Setup was just as simple, download the SHOKZ app from your app store, create an account, then off you go. You will want to follow the in-app instructions to put the earbuds on, the rotation to fit is very important to get a snug fit and proper sound. I found that if I just slipped on the earbuds, they would feel loose, and the sound was less than ideal. Rotating the earbuds onto the ears really made all the difference. Software: I like when apps are simple, less is more in the apps space. Shokz delivers with a very simple app that’s main purpose is to pair the earbuds, then enable additional settings. Honestly, I only had to open the app initially and to adjust the additional settings then that was it. One of the features to enable right away is the Dolby Audio, which greatly increases the sound quality. It helps fill out the audio to be fuller and vivid, even when just listening to podcasts or a meeting. There is the standard EQ Modes that you can adjust which is helpful if you have a specific type of audio that you listen to, but I found the standard to be very well rounded for multiple uses. The two other features I really liked were the MultiPoint Pairing, which allows you to connect to multiple devices at the same time, which is amazing if you want to be connected to your phone and laptop or another device. Paired with the Microphone Noise Cancellation During Calls, is a winning combination for those who travel or are on calls often. The Noise Cancellation was honestly better than most earbuds I’ve had at cutting out the background noise. Fit: As mentioned, there is a bit of a trick to getting the OpenFit2+ to fit snuggly. But once you get that down, I found the OpenFit2+ stayed in place regardless of how much I moved. I’d have to really try to shake them off to get any movement, which was perfect for outdoor use and walking the dog. But even better, was how comfortable the fit was. Unlike earbuds or over the ear headphones, there wasn’t the same pressure in or on the ear. These are crazy light on the ears, I’ve had them in for over 8 hours straight without any discomfort. Sound: The audio quality shocked me initially, as I wasn’t expecting it to sound so full and vibrant with the open ear design. But Shokz has proved to me with the OpenFit2+ that the open ear design can sound full and clear while providing the passive ambient benefit. Even the bass was booming. The only times I had any issue were when the surrounding environment was extremely loud, like on a busy street or with an emergency vehicle passing, would I have a hard time hearing the audio. But I expected that and wanted to be able to hear what was happening around me. Call Quality: The Call quality is great as well, as mentioned above, the microphone noise cancelling works perfectly to cut out even the loudest noises. The only impact to the microphone was a bit of muffling to your voice when the background noise was extremely loud. But even then, my caller would never hear the background noise! Just my voice, clear enough to understand. Battery Life: The battery life is great, I was easily getting a full 10+ hours of use time per charge. With the case, you can get more than 3 full charges on the earbuds, so on a full charge that was 40+ hours of play time. I found this to be roughly a weeks’ worth of use between charges, depending on your use. Better yet, was the quick charging provided roughly 2 hours of use with just a 10-minute charge up. Conclusion: If you want to be able to hear what’s happening around you, while listening to music comfortably all day, Shokz has the earbuds for you! The OpenFit2+ delivered shocking audio quality while providing all day comfort, with crystal clear calls. I’ve had these on since I got them, and don’t plan to take them off except to sleep or charge. I’ve got a new favorite active earbud.

When I saw that Shokz came out with a newer version of their Open Fit earbuds, I was excited to try them. The earbuds come in a box with a wireless charging case, two openfit earbuds, a charging cord and a user manual. I love that the case has wireless charging. It makes it so much easier to charge than having to hunt for a cord at night. I have the original version of the Open Fit earbuds and I wear them every day. My original pair is black and the new Open Fit 2 are Beige. The ear support piece is the same shape and size as the original model but the end is closed rather than open. The silicone also seems to be a little more flexible. This is great for behind my ears, with my glasses. It seems like there is less pressure but it does make them feel a little less stable than the original version. I love that I can hear everything going on around me but I can still be immersed in whatever I'm listening to. The Open Fit 2 earbuds give me the same great features as the original but with even better sound. There is a Shokz app that has an equalizer with preset sound options like Standard, Vocal, Bass Boost, Treble Boost and Customize. New to these earbuds are the option to use Dolby Atmos and all I have to say is wow! I have listened to music with Dolby Atmos before but the sound and quality of it with these earbuds was absolutely phenomenal. I felt like I was right there listening to the music. I had my husband listen and he was in awe as well. Just a side note, Dolby Atmos used to be available only with premium music services. Now I found that there was quite a bit of music on the Amazon Music App that was available in Dolby Atmos at no additional charge. The earbuds are controlled by pushing buttons on the top that are easily depressed. This is far superior to the virtual buttons on the original version. If my hair was wet and brushed by the buttons, it would activate them. I can listen with one earbud at a time, which is great for bedtime. I put one in my right ear (I lay on my left side) and set the sleep timer to whichever preset off amount of time I choose. They will shut down that amount of time. The Open Fit 2 has Multipoint pairing which means that you can connect it to two different devices at the same time. This is a really great feature. It is always a struggle for me to switch between connecting to my phone and connecting to my tablet. If I wanted to use the earbuds with my tablet, I had to go into the Bluetooth on my phone and disconnect them. Then I had to go into the tablet and get them to connect. Speaking of connecting, the earbuds are super easy to connect to any device initially and subsequent connections are seamless. According to the specs, the earbuds have up ro 11 hours of listening on a charge with up to 48 hours total listening when you recharge them with the case. You can recharge them to use them in 60 minutes. The earbuds are also rated to IP 55 water resistance to keep them safe from sweat and ;being caught in the rain. Wireless charging case 2 earbuds Charging cord User guide 11 hours on one charge Upto 48 hrs when recharged with the case Recharge in 60 minutes Soft silicone Sleep timer 1 at a time Multipoint pairing Multiple devices Multi function actual buttons (skip, volume, answer calls) AI powered crystal Open ear connected to surroundings Open base Direct sound Like you're there/Dolby Atmos WOW Equalizer App Preset adjustments IP 55 water resistance for sweat and caught in the rain

So, Ive been using the Shokz Open Fit 2+ for about a week now and I have to say that they have become my go to "earphone" for everyday use for a couple of reasons. Firstly, they are very lightweight and comfortable. Initially I didn't really like the way they felt on my ears because I kept fidgeting with them and adjusting them because I am so used to have earbuds go into my ear and secure into place. These have the hook design that wraps around your ear and the "bud" just kind of hovers over your ear canal. My brain kept telling me that they are going to fall off, so I kept reaching to adjust them. After my second day of use, I started to trust that they won't fall and got used to them being in that position. Sooo the main reasons I've come to love these is because I tend to fall asleep with my earbuds in my ears. It's hard for me to fall asleep sometimes without some sort of ambient sound. I like to listen to soft music or a podcast while I doze off. My girlfriend is a light sleeper lol, so headphones are a must for me. Anyway.. I would always wake up and the earbuds had fallen out of my ear and then I'm scrambling to find them before I head out for the day. I have not had this issue with the Shokz Openfit. They stay securely in place even after tossing and turning all night. I was pretty impressed. I woke up and I could still hear the podcast going haha. I think I can assume that these will stay in place whether you are out jogging, walking, at the gym or use them to fall asleep. Secondly the sound quality is actually pretty good. These provide a different experience than typical "in ear" buds. So keep that in mind. You will not get the same bass response because there is no seal in your ear canal. That being said. The Shokz Openfit 2+ to me sound nice and balanced. I keep the dolby audio option on with the provided app. You'll lose "spatial" head tracking audio if you use an iPhone but that's ok. (at least in my experience). I don't see a setting in the app to keep it. I would say that the sound quality of these earbuds is excellent. Vocals are nice and clean. Mids and Treble are clean. Bass (while not head rattling) is still good and you you'll get a nice subtle thump from the bass. I tend to keep the volume at 25 ~ 40% and they are loud enough. Coincidentally, If you raise the volume over lets say 60% they just became quite trebly. Mids and Bass get blasted out. You'll have to turn off dolby audio or change the EQ preset in the app to get better sound quality at higher volumes. Honestly I wouldn't recommend taking these over 50% volume. They are loud, and will probably damage your ears over time if you listen to these too loud for extended periods. All in all, I really like these earphones. They have excellent sound quality. Battery life is great. They will be able to withstand a rain shower, sweaty workout. The charging pod is very cool and unobtrusive. You won't have to worry about earwax getting all over your buds. You won't have to worry about jamming germs or dirt into your ear canals. And most importantly you will be able to stay aware of your surroundings while listening to your favorite songs or audio. You gotta protect your hearing, and stay aware while out and about. If you are looking for a pair of wireless earphones, these should be on your short list. Check them out, they take a little adjusting to but I think in the end you will really enjoy using these. I do, I love them.

Shokz OpenFit2+ Open Ear True Wireless Earbuds; My daughter won’t use any earbuds but the Shokz brand. She’s on the phone, at her computer, all day. She’ll listen to audiobooks and, occasionally, music in her free time. This Shokz earbud series requires minimal compromise as it is very musical and a legitimate audio performer. They also provide a lot of customization in the app. It does not achieve the enhanced detail of the very best audio-purist systems, but those earphones can’t achieve this comfortable experience for an entire day. Earbuds that don’t need to be inserted into your ears never get tired. This is why the Shokz brand has become so popular. The real surprise is going to occur when music lovers discover how seriously these OpenFit2+ take sound reproduction. SETUP and FEATURES: The initial connection to Bluetooth was guided by the app and proved to be foolproof. Soon after connecting, an update was sent to the earbuds. This feature and all the others are explained clearly in the app. Shokz really outdid themselves here. The APP: Shokz has included everything you could ever want or need in an app. There are a bunch of different listening equalizations that you can choose from: standard (which is presumably a natural curve), Vocal (audiobooks and instructional), Bass Boost, Treble Boost, and a Customize, which offers a 5-band equalizer which can be saved under a name you provide. I added a couple of custom equalized curves and I’m not sure how many more are available. There’s also a Dolby Audio selector switch, which I found made my pop and rock sound really lively. I spent most of my time in this mode. The OpenFit2+ offers MultiPoint pairing so you can easily and conveniently connect to two devices (phone, tablet, or computer?) at the same time without fussing with your Bluetooth settings. This function worked nicely. There are physical buttons on the earbuds which provide media control (Pause, play, Next, Previous, Volume) which require some practice to quickly find. The actual ease of use is great, because the clicks are easy to recognize and they work. And, you can customize the controls. There are also Touch controls which require you to enable them in the app. They only control the Voice Assistant. You can also enable Microphone Noise Cancelling, which reduces background or ambient noise for the other party during a call. PERFORMANCE: If you’ve had experience with earlier iterations of Shokz earbuds or headphones, with their bone conduction sound reproduction, you might be surprised by the improved sound quality.. Those earlier devices required some modest audio compromises to achieve long-term comfort. Some also weren’t always secure on my head. The Shokz OpenFit 2+ are a world apart in sound quality. I can’t find any compromises. They’re infinitely comfortable. You might forget you’re wearing them. They never felt like they might fall off my head. I hate taking them off, not just because they’re comfortable, but because they sound great. The battery life is extended, so you won’t have to worry about running out of juice during your sessions. I was surprised after a workout and a writing session when I realized I was still wearing them. I have a whole new appreciation for Shokz earbuds, and they’ve convinced me why I own them. I highly recommend them.

These new Shokz were a happy discovery. Having become hooked on clip-style ear buds earlier in the year, these prove to be equally comfortable, offering a different wearing style that some may prefer. The ear hook on the Open Fit 2 was designed to improve comfort over its predecessor, with a more flexible and thin ear band that still feels durable. Now, this Open Fit 2+ models goes even further and adds Dolby Audio for better sound handling. ___ Design ___ These feel premium, with metal elements that have some heft in the hand, while still feeling light while wearing. I love the smoothed over physical button for basic controls too, it’s very easy to reliably feel for and press when needing to mute, skip or change volume. Battery life is also very good, boasting 11 hours in this newest flagship model. I quickly got used to wearing these and appreciate how light and open they feel. They definitely allow better situational awareness, allowing background noises to come through, but like all ‘open’ earbuds, the higher the volume you use them, the more you’ll drown out those background noises. As a result, I like keeping volume lower and balancing to my surroundings. That’s the whole point, right? ___ Sound Quality ___ Sound quality (default setting) is quite decent for an open-air design without noise cancelling. Bass almost rolls in and is punchy, trebles and mids are slightly crispy and vibrate slightly. Sound quality is good up to around 50-60% of available volume, after which I can hear a lot more distortion. That’s fine, IMO, as 50% is plenty loud for me. Dolby Audio can be turned on via the companion Shokz app for a slightly higher impression of quality. In itself, I don’t think it’s a super important reason to choose this over the normal, non-‘plus’ model. ___ Other Qualities ___ Another feature offered in the app is the ability to connect to 2 sources at once. If you move between devices often, this helps. The charging case in silver is maybe my only gripe with these. In silver, it looks a bit cheap from the outside (painted silver plastic impression), though the interior still feels premium with well-designed holders to easily drop your earpieces into place. Overall, I really like these. In terms of comfort, they quickly disappeared on my ears. I like them equally as much as my clip-on style ear buds and the sound quality is quite good, even for music and not just podcasts. *** Stuff I Like *** - Great build quality and comfort. - Long battery life. - Premium materials (silicone and metal). - Very respectable sound quality in an open-ear design. *** Stuff I Don’t Like *** - Silver case looks a bit cheap on the outside.

I really like this product simple fact is is because I can't put earbuds in my ears anymore. Only one drawback is that they feel like you have to lean your head forward sometimes.

These Shokz are well worth the investment. Good all around sound, design, comfort and looks. Quality and workmanship, so good. The fact that there not going directly inside the ears, is perfectly suited for all day labor. They stay safe and securely fitted to the ears and are competitively priced for ease on your wallet. I've already dropped mine a time or two and no problem; they are very solidly built. They're built to handle rain and sweat also.

I have tried multiple wired/wireless in ear headphones/buds over the years The issue for me has always been getting a comfortable fit where I could wear them for extended periods of time – which has so far been somewhat of a fools errand. Also, they tended to fall out of my ear if using while exercising, etc. This has left me using over the ear headphones which are a tad cumbersome to travel with and difficult to use while exercising, etc. The solution? These openfit 2+ headphones. They hook around your ear, and the speaker sits on the ear - not in the ear. I found them extremely comfortable, and having 2 speakers (high and low frequency units) provides great sound and would recommend them. Nice packaging. The small black 2.5 x 2.5 x 1 inch carrying case also charges the buds and can be wirelessly charged. Case seems to have magnets to hold buds securely in case. While charging, using the provided (short) 12-inch USB-C cable, I installed the Shokz app and reviewed the provided user guide. Buds are supposed to last up to 11 hours on a charge and the case will charge them for up to a total of 48 hrs. A 10-minute charge time gives 2 hrs. listening time. Small case size makes it easy to carry in a shirt, pants, etc. The buds were easily paired with the app on my Android phone – also paired easily with one of my tv’s. There was a firmware update, but it was installed quickly. The app provides access to many settings/options that allow for a lot of personalization. The app provides these sound options; Standard – which had good sound overall with decent bass Vocal – definitely enhanced voice reducing all other sound Bass Boost – This did boost the bass but to me it muddied all the other sounds. Treble Boost – I would rate it between standard and bass boost. Customize – Provides a sliding EQ. This is what I wound up using moving the Bass to max. Dolby Sound (on/off). If on it reduces usage time. Microphone Noise Cancellation During Calls (on/off) I initially tried them out listening to music on my phone and could not have been happier with the sound quality. All the songs nuances could be heard. I also used them for 1 hr while using treadmill and while I could hear the treadmill it wasn’t intrusive. I was streaming a Dolby Atmos series, and the sound was very impressive – putting you in the middle of the action with sound being very spatial and all around you. I have 2 Dolby Atmos soundbars with rear speakers and these buds sound is very comparable. Plus, I did not have to worry about them falling out of my ear and after 1 hr they still registered as 100% charged. Using them while working or around the house doing chores – such as washing dishes (wound up with one in ear bud in the water) – vacuuming – yard work – they stay put!!!! Sitting next to my wife (like on a plane, etc.) using them I could barely make out any “sound” unless on very high volume. I couldn’t pick up what was playing. Volume you listen to will affect this of course. Buds can be controlled using the button on each or by touch. I prefer buttons but appreciate being able to choose. You can also customize these functions in the app. I didn’t use to answer calls. But a big plus for users that do is these can be synched and used by 2 devices at the same time. It does provide AI microphone sound cancellation during calls (set in app). The app has a “find” function, but buds only make a “pinging” noise – no location tracking. But the case must be open, or the buds must be out of the case to use. You can use buds singly or as a pair. I wore them while using my reading glasses and had no interference issues with the ear loops. 2-year warranty (?). It was nice not to have to spend time working thru the different ear “gel” sizes trying to find ones that fit comfortably. They are extremely comfortable to wear with just a small pressure around the top of my ears. You do give up ANC, but they are so much more comfortable than in ear or even over ear headphones and the sound is fantastic. Being able to hear your surroundings does have advantages – especially if using outside – being aware of your surroundings. Also, they have an IP55 dust/water resistance rating so sweat/rain shouldn’t be an issue. Not made for swimming though Overall, these are the most comfortable and have the best sound out of the 3 over ear wireless headphones and 6 in ear wireless/wired headphones/buds I have used. A fantastic product that sounds great and stays on your ear – a definite recommend. I would be shokzed if you didn’t like them.

I do a lot of outdoorsy stuff and yard work and have always struggled with maintaining situational awareness while doing so and listening to music. I thought the original Shokz line up that utilized the bone conduction were cool, but I was too much of a music purist to be really happy with them. The AirPods from apple may have sounded great but they darn near jump out of my ears with the slightest move. When the Shokz OpenFit hit the market a few years ago, I found my outdoor headset. They sounded great, stayed secure, and keep me aware of my surroundings. My only quibble with them was that the case battery seemed to drain way too quickly. Fast forward to this week when I got the new OpenFit 2+ and I'm in heaven! These are my new go-to earbuds. I've been listening to these for almost an entire week now, and EVERYTHING has been improved, with the exception of one tiny little quibble that isn't even much of a quibble now that I am used to them). What has gotten better? Sound: Better, tighter, and more refined bass. Less sibilant highs and clearer all around. Do you get deep bass? No, you can't really get that without a seal but I was blown away by how much the 2+ has improved on it. Battery: Battery life is WAY more consistent and longer lasting. Over the last few years new techniques for charging algorithms have improved charging cases so that they don't waste charge keeping their items constantly at 100%. I don't know if Shokz is using such algorithms, but I've seen a marked improvement on battery life while in use and while in the case. Nothing more annoying than being out on a hike, reaching for your earbuds, and finding them dead. Charging: Now I can charge my OpenFits wirelessly! I have a small MagSafe power bank that is almost always with me and now, even if I was out on a hike, I can slap the case on there and get enough of a charge to keep me going! I can also drop it on the charge pad in my car. PERFECT! Mic: I don't call a lot of people when I'm out and about (please just text me), but my parents called while I was on a hike and they even commented on how clear I sounded. I could hear them perfectly as well. Very happy with the communication component. Controls: The original OpenFit had the tap controls which was great but a tad limited. Now you have an additional physical button to the tops of each bud which you can customize. Gives you a ton of other options, AND you can deactivate the touch controls and stick with the physical controls if you have a tendency to accidentally activate touch controls. What stayed the same? Fit: I HATE earbuds that go down into your ear canal! That is why I was so stoked by the original OpenFits, and they are just as great now. The OpenFit 2+ nicely drapes over your ears and the soft plastic has yet to bug me despite HOURS of constant wear. They don't even interfere or get messed up themselves by my glasses! What got a little bit worse (but I'm OK with it now)?: Security of Fit: I think that the Shokz team was able to improve on the sound not only with better internals but with a better placement of the speakers towards your ears. It's small, but there is a definite twist to the speaker section to better drive the sound down your ear canal. That though has changed the balance slightly of the OpenFit 2+, at least for me. Now when turning my head or looking down, I get a bit of a wobble sometimes by the lateral ends shifting slightly with the momentum. At first it would make me feel like they were going to fall off a bit, but as I wore them, I got used to the feeling and now it doesn't make me reach up to steady them like I was doing. All in all, I am SUPER happy with the Shokz OpenFit 2+! They are everything I loved about the originals and more. These are the best earbuds/headphones (IMHO) for anyone that wants great sounding music but needs to keep their head on a swivel. Nice job Shokz!

I'm older and have been through so many earbuds and headphones, it's ridiculous. And throughout the years, I've always been on the lookout for the perfect gym earbuds because that is my main use for earbuds. I like headphones for travel, portable speakers for relaxing outdoors and earbuds for gym and working around the house. So, I have so many products, I feel I know what works and what doesn't. The Shokz have features that I really love and you can't find on most earbuds today which is a physical button on the uniit. The physical button can be used to play/pause, fast forward and volume. Perfect. But it also has a touch feature on the side which calls up your choice of voice asssitance. Again, perfect. The design is also very good. Open ear with a hook makes these earbuds so comfortable to wear for hours and it really stays in place, with a caveat though. Sound is good but lacks bass and that's the problem I have with these earbuds. Now, it's not the fault of the earbuds because of the open ear design. When I'm at the gym, I love all types of music, just depends on my mood. But having a good bass is something I require. Also, when you do quick movements, the earbuds shifts constantly so I'm always adjusting the earbuds which annoys me. Battery life is good, case is a little bigger than other earbuds but mangeable. So the short. I would give these earbuds 5 stars for most use and 3 stars for gym use.

I’ve been using the Shokz OpenFit 2+ for a few weeks, and I’m genuinely impressed. The open-ear design is extremely comfortable — I can wear them for hours without any ear fatigue, and they stay secure even during workouts. The sound quality is clear and balanced, especially for open-ear headphones, with surprisingly rich bass. Bluetooth connection is stable, and switching between devices is effortless. I also love the awareness of surroundings — perfect for outdoor runs or working in shared spaces. Battery life easily lasts a full day, and the charging case feels sturdy and compact. The Stone Blue color looks stylish and premium. Overall, these are a great choice if you value comfort, safety, and solid sound without isolating yourself from your environment.

I bought the OpenFit 2+ mainly for workouts and daily calls, and they’ve been excellent. The open-ear design is very comfortable — I can wear them for hours without pressure or ear fatigue. They stay secure even during cardio and light running. Sound quality is surprisingly full for open-ear earbuds. You don’t get deep, sealed-in bass like traditional in-ear buds, but the clarity and spatial feel are impressive. Calls are clear, and the microphones do a good job reducing background noise. Battery life has been consistent for me, and the case charges quickly. The biggest advantage is awareness — I can hear traffic and people around me, which makes them perfect for outdoor walks and gym use. Great choice if comfort and situational awareness matter more than heavy bass

The Shokz OpenFit 2+ headphones are an upgrade to the already great OpenFit 2 open earbuds and improve upon them in every way. In this review, I’ll outline the pros, cons, and what I liked most about these headphones, along with my experience using them. The OpenFit 2+ don’t really go into your ears as much as they rest on them, pointing the sound into your ears. This fit feels unusual at first, but soon you’ll completely forget you’re wearing them because they are incredibly comfortable, even for extended periods. As for sound quality, these impress, especially for open earbuds. Dolby Audio is a new addition from the original version and works fairly well, though I still find that voices or instruments sometimes fade in and out strangely when it’s enabled. I believe this will be addressed in future firmware updates, so I’m not overly concerned. While Dolby Audio widens the soundstage and is nice for watching movies, I generally turn this feature off for music and most other audio to retain the original source sound. Bass is very well-defined, and highs and mids are crisp, clear, and never harsh, even at louder volumes. You won’t get any noise isolation or cancellation with these, but when turned up more than halfway, some softer outside noises are decently muffled. However, sounds like a car horn or alarm will always break through, which is the intended design. These earbuds are a great option for people who want to be aware of their surroundings while listening to music, podcasts, or even office meetings. The sound quality is a step above the bone conduction type of headphones that Shokz is known for, which is a welcome improvement. Touch controls are available, but I prefer to use the physical buttons to play/pause, skip, and adjust volume. Although I generally dislike touch controls, these do seem to work decently. Connectivity is incredible. With multipoint pairing, these are excellent for office use. I have them paired with my iPhone and my MacBook, and they effortlessly switch between sources. I can listen to an audiobook on my phone, pause it, and then seamlessly join a Teams meeting on my laptop without any manual intervention. The microphone is also good, and everyone can hear me very clearly during my meetings. Battery life is exceptional at 11+ hours, even with the addition of Dolby Audio, and Shokz finally incorporated wireless charging into the carrying case! This was the one feature that was sorely missing on the OpenFit 2, and I’m very happy to see included in this upgraded version. The case will charge your headphones several times, offering a total of over 48 hours of battery life before you need to charge the case and earbuds. Pros: Comfortable to wear for long periods Open-ear design allows you to hear your surroundings Great audio quality and Dolby spatial audio is a welcome addition Long battery life USB-C and wireless charging Multipoint connectivity works incredibly well Cons: Can be difficult to hear in noisier environments Sound quality isn’t going to be on par with closed earbuds or over-the-ear headphones Dolby audio still seems a bit buggy and needs some tweaking before I'd consistently use it Overall: The OpenFit 2+ are a smart choice for open-ear, true wireless earbuds and have really impressed me. These are for people who want to remain aware of their surroundings and do not isolate or cancel noise very well, but that’s what you expect when you get these. The OpenFit 2+ may be the best open-ear earbuds I have ever used, and I recommend them without reservation.
