    these ear pieces are a very good option for open ear. they stay on the ear pretty good. while punching a boxing bag they move a bit and feel like they will fall off but they don't. it's designed well to stay on the ear but yet being open ear concept. The sound is good. the fit is good. and the price was very good compared to other open ear systems. lastly, connecting to my phone was very easy.

    The best earbuds! Very comfortable to wear, actually don't feel you have them on. Can hear around you and when talking on the phone , communication is clear, great sound even with music, listening music to a radio app. It easy to use. Great battery life, actually starting using it this past weekend off and on through the week when needed and still have not even have to charge it yet.

    Very comfortable, sound is good. Awesome for workouts and even in office. Keeps you completely aware of your surroundings while having music in the background. Can’t go wrong with Shokz.

    Loud and Comfortable. Best Open-Ear in the market

    I have finally found an Open-Ear product that is both really comfortable and is loud enough to combat loud environments. I have tried so many from Oladance, Bose, and other non well known brands and the Shoks OpenFit 2 is by far the best. One of the weaknesses for the open-ear style is that they generally are not loud enough in environments with loud ambient noise like airplanes or trains--this product is plenty loud enough to the point where I have to even lower the volume. In addition, they are very comfortable on my ears. I can wear them all day and not feel ear strain like I have with other ear buds. Lastly, I really like how there is a physical button. I can't stand other devices that have touch interfaces.

    GREAT CONCEPT BUT LACKING!!!

    The Shokz Openfit 2 earbuds offer a unique concept of open ear design earbuds that allow you to jam to your beats while being aware of your surroundings. While this is a great idea, it does come with some drawbacks. This was my first time trying out earbuds with the open concept design and I was impressed at first with the design and how comfortable they were to wear and how well they stayed on but kind of disappointed once I powered them on. Well, let’s go over what the new Shokz Openfit 2 has to offer. The first thing I want to go over is how comfortable these earbuds are. They honestly feel like you are not wearing any at all and are great for extended wear, no more pressure and heat build-up in your ears. These are great for wearing while you’re working out and don’t have to worry about the ear buds falling out. These ear buds essentially fit over and around the back of your ear while the speaker rests above your ear canal. Now, let’s go over where the Shokz Openfit 2 are lacking and that is the sound quality. While the open ear design is comfortable and allows for situational awareness, the sound quality is compromised. Firstly, there is significant sound leakage, meaning pretty much everyone around me can hear what I am listening to if I have the volume turned up all the way. Secondly, the audio quality is quite lacking. Everything you listen to just sounds flat; the overall audio experience is my experience subpar. Now there may be an option to adjust the equalizers in the app once you are able to connect the earbuds to the application, but not sure how much of a difference they would make. I was not able to connect the earbuds to the Shokz application at the time I tested out the earbuds. Lastly, the battery life. While I was not able to find the specs for the Openfit 2 anywhere online, I did find that that Openfit offer around 7 hours of battery life, and I would assume that these earbuds would offer somewhere around the same area. I had these on for about a few hours at a time while completing my daily tasks and taking phone calls, I did not run into any battery issues. Overall, The Shoks Openfit 2 are comfortable pair of earbuds and allowing for situational awareness but due to the sound quality and leakage , I would not be able to recommend these to anyone.

    Probably the best wireless earbuds that I've ever purchased. They last all day long. The sound quality is impeccable, and they are definitely user friendly. Well worth the price that I paid for them.

    I originally bought these for my mom, but I tried them on and wow – I had to get my own. They don’t go inside your ears, so no pain at all, and they stay in place perfectly. Super comfortable and the sound is great. A total game changer for everyday use!

    Much better than OpenFit 1!

    I had the original OpenFits and used them almost daily, often for several hours a day. I loved them, but had three primary frustrations that the OpenFit 2s have resolved: The 2s are louder, allowing them to be used more when there's more ambient noise. The battery is phenomenally better, both for the buds and the case. It's made a huge difference in practical day-to-day use. The multi-point pairing is much more stable and properly working. The feature on the 1s was finicky, and if I was using them on a virtual call on my computer and my phone rang, they would completely disconnect from the computer, even if I didn't accept the call. I would have to toggle bluetooth on the computer to get them to reconnect. Really not ideal. They will primarily connect to the phone when ringing, but fully reconnect on their own to the computer. So overall, I'm satisfied. They are quite comfortable though I don't notice much difference compared to the 1s. I don't end up using the controls much, so the physical buttons are not a make-or-break for me, but they do allow for more control on the buds, which is nice. In the end, these have been worthwhile upgrade from the first version.

    Pleasantly Shocked by Shokz

    I wasn’t too sure about Shokz and their open-ear technology at first, but I’m completely sold now. . I bought these after I returned a pair of Powerbeats 2. The sound quality is great—clear and balanced even without active noise cancellation. The fit is extremely comfortable, and I never feel any irritation, even after long wear. I also love that everything can be controlled through the app, which makes setup and adjustments super easy. Overall, these exceeded my expectations. If you’re on the fence about trying open-ear headphones, don’t hesitate—Shokz nailed it.

    Comfortable and Great Sound

    These headphones are great! I love how comfortable they are. The texture is smooth and soft so they feel nice when worn. The texture, weight, and shape are great when it comes to wearing these for longer periods of time. They do not create that ear fatigue that in-ear headphones do, along with not causing pain where the headphone wraps around the ear. Some examples of acitvities they are great for include around the house doing chores, long car/plane/train rides, and also while going on walks(if you like to also be aware of what is going on around you). The sound is really good for open ear headphones. You can still hear music or podcasts decently when outside or in louder environments. I've tried different types of open ear headphones, including the ones from bose, and these are by far my favorite as both the sound and overall feel top everything i've tried. The only reason I did not give a 5 star review is because my ears are very small, so sometimes they will slip out of position. That is the reason I won't wear these headphones while at the gym, as they slip when I move my head around too much. It can be quite annoying when that happens so, in my opinion, they are better for activities that do not require tons of movement(if you have small ears). Overall, if you are looking for something that is comfortable, has great sound even when in loud environments, and is open-ear then these are the headphones for you.
