Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Shokz openfit 2+ headphones finally check all the boxes for me in an open fit style headphone. See, I have a much much cheaper version from another brand and although I do like them for some uses, but the quality is terrible, the fit is bad, and the mics are useless. The Shokz on the other hand are fantastic in all these categories. I need a good audio quality open fit designed headphone for zoom/discord calls as well as exercising and running on busy streets. Now I wouldn’t say these have “amazing audio quality” because they are still open fit which will always struggle to get a full sound, but in that category, I think these are amazing. The sound is good enough to satisfy a need for music when running or working out and is plenty good for basic video calls etc. I love how I can hear everything going on around me but with my own little private soundtrack. The comfort is also amazing on these headphones. I actually found myself forgetting they were on and ended up wearing them for over an hour with no music or sound playing and completely forgot they were on my head. This comfort combined with the ability to hear your surroundings made me forget others can’t actually hear what I’m listening to and, at one point, I turned to my wife and asked her a question about the podcast I was listening to and she looked at me blank faced and said “I can’t hear what you’re listening to.” oops. So yeah, I’d say using these headphones sounds a lot like having a small speaker in the room playing whatever you’re listening to, but in reality, others can’t hear anything. And that’s pretty true even when I cranked the volume. If you’re old enough to remember the joys of having a diskman and those classic old style headphones that sat over your ears, then you remember how you could hear everything someone was listening to if they had the volume up past midway. These do not have the same effect. Yes a little, but I had to have the volume so loud it actually wasn’t pleasant for me either. I will say, I have smaller than most ears, and I think the fit isn’t exactly perfect for me, but they still fit fine. The heavy back that hangs over the ears holds everything in place even though they feel a little loose. But I put them to the ultimate test running on a busy street and even with the steps, the headphones never fell off. At first it felt like they might fall off, but after a while I knew they wouldn’t and I didn’t notice them bouncing or moving at all. The best part was I could hear all the cars and people around me though. It was so nice to not freak out when a car comes flying by behind me that I didn’t hear coming at all. I could hear every car approach and was able to move to the safer part of the road when needed. If you have ever tried running with noise canceling headphones on, you know what I’m talking about. Now I don’t have to sacrifice audio quality for safety. So about that quality. Like I said, best audio I’ve heard through an open fit design ever. The sound isn’t going to be as full as enclosed headphones or as thick of a low end for sure, but I was really surprised how clean and balanced the sound was. It wasn’t just all highs and tinny, even though the speakers were resting outside my ear. Of course, if I pushed the headphones into my ears, I could hear a more full sound but obviously these aren’t designed for that and I didn't think it was that much worse. Part of that may have to do with the dolby audio option available. You have to make sure your phone or device has dolby as well, and it is on, but once you do the sound quality goes up even more. This was especially true for videos and movies. I loved how clean and immersive the audio felt while watching movies or shows. The dialogue was crisp and the action didn’t sound muddy or weak. OVERALL: I love these shokz open fit 2+ headphones. The audio quality is great for it’s class, the battery life is insanely long, the comfort is unmatched and the design is sleek and well thought out. I love that I can wear these all day and forget they’re on all while having whatever background music or podcast etc I want following me around. They’re great for walking around the house, doing chores, but they’re also fantastic for working out and running on busy streets. The ability to hear all your surroundings while running, shopping, cleaning, etc is so helpful and makes adding a private soundtrack to your day easy and fun. I absolutely love these headphones and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs to be able to hear their surroundings but still want relatively good audio quality.

At first I thought WHY do I want these? How do they even work? I LOVE them when you need to hear what's going on around you! It's remarkable! My husband loves that he can work and hear his favorite show.

It has a very nice sound and I like how it fits me

I absolutely love these. I use them everyday to talk with. I do have to charge them two times a day but I use them ALOT!!! Most of the time I forget I have them on. Very comfortable!!!! I also like that they don’t hurt the inside of my ears like air pods do.

I love the Shokz Mini Open-Ear sport headphones. I did not want the large over the head/full ear headphones and cannot wear the ear bud styles. This is perfect and allows me to still hear what's going on in the background. The mini size fits closer to the back of my head. Very happy with this purchase.

This is my first time using this type of headphones. I am very impressed with the sound quality when listening to music. I use them when walking and riding my bicycle, they are much safer than the in ear type that I used in the past because I can hear approaching cars and don't feel isolated from others.

This a product that meets all of the quality expectation in sound and performance. While I have had many brands of head phones both over the ear and ear buds. Since I purchased the Shokz it is now my preferred means of listening to music and phone conversation

Absolutely love these. I use them for work. I am on the phone for 40 hours a week and they never bother my ears. I even bought wine for my husband and friend.

They are sleek, they don't fall off when I am working.

These work out really great. Allowing my ears to breathe but alsohaving great sou d and battery life

It was a gift and the are enjoying them sound quality is great light and they don't irritate around the ear

By far the best Bluetooth I have ever had. I purchased the first gen and my only complaint was they felt big so I was thrilled when I saw they made a smaller version. I used my old ones for 4 years and use 8-10 hours at work. I am extremely happy with these!

Worlds better than the 1st gen bone conduction headphones that would give you that nauseating vibration. These are clear, loud, and the base is prsent it, it's not at in ear bud levels, but you can tell there is base. Very happy thus far

I do alot of home renovation work and have always used my airpods but I would only put one in so I can make sure I hear whats going on around me. These are incredible I feel safe with them and also know I can have a conversation without constantly taking my headphones out.

Great buy for me. I have the original OpenFit earbuds. These are night and day compared to the original.

These headphones are so cool! The concept of using bone conduction to deliver sound waves ‘into your ears’ is astonishing. These are excellent for someone (like my husband) who works in a shop where he needs to be alert and needs to hear his surroundings but still be able to listen to music and be able to answer his phone as well. I can also see how it would be beneficial for someone who works in a factory where ear plus are required. Your ability to listen to music while also utilizing ear plugs wouldn’t be compromised. I’ve actually suggested them to my uncle who wears hearing aids so he didn’t have to worry about ear buds and hearing aids. The only reason I didn’t give this particular paid 5 stars is because these are the “mini” headphones….when trying on in the store they have been put off and on by several people over the course of time and it can be deceiving that the regular sized headphones would be too big for you. My husband bought the mini’s based on fit in the store and ended up having to return for the larger size. It is understandable that the ones in the store get more than average use but just be aware. It would be really awesome if there were an adjustable pair. Other than that, they get 5 stars from me.

Good product with good quality, recommended.satisfied and have a great experience having this product

Easy to setup and use. The audio sounds good I just wish it was louder.

Like the fit and sound of the headphones comfortable

Open ear design is great. They work really well. I am happy with the purchase. I always hated the "blocked" ear effect with in ear earbuds; plus my buds were always caked in gross ear wax. My only reservation with OpenFit2 is that they fit loosely. Open DOTS provide tighter fit and should be considered if you like a tight fit.
