Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was interested in trying out these ear buds because of the design. I prefer buds that hook over my ears so they stay in place vs the kind that hang in your ear and are prone to falling out. When I got them, I was surprised how small they are. I’ve worn them at work all day and even though my job has me climbing, bending, and stooping all day, these never once fell out or felt like they might. Five stars for that! On the sound quality, it’s very good. Not a lot of bass so if you’re into that kind of music you may be disappointed but I don’t think you’re going to find buds that play that sound well. Where these really shine is the good sound quality AND being able to hear what’s going on around you, even carry on a conversation, provided you are not listening at higher volumes. So I’ll give five stars for that benefit. On the fit, it seems to me that the speaker ends up sitting a little too high on my ear. If I slightly flex the bud downward, the sound quality improves noticeably. They are flexible but I don’t see any way to adjust them. My wife and kids tried them out and said they sound amazing. Might be something you want to try on at the store and see for yourself if you have larger ears. I played them all day starting from a full charge, at 8 hours they were down to 20 % remaining, I placed them in their fully charged case and recharged them. The case was showing 80% left after topping off the buds so I’m sure I could get at least four charges from the case. I always use both ear buds when I wear them but I know some people just wear one. If you place one bud back in the case it turns the other bud off. There’s really no reason not to wear both though since you can still hear with them on. I downloaded the Shokz app to my phone, it allows you to apply different presets or custom settings to the eq and you can change the controls on the buds. I have the volume control on my watch so I left the default controls as-is. Two taps plays or pauses playback or answers an incoming call, a single press and hold on the left bud skips back one track and a single press and hold on the right bud skips forward a track. The app also shows the state of charge of each bud and the case ( I believe the case has to be open to communicate). I’ll attach some screenshots so you can see the alternative choices for control.

The absolute best ear buds I've ever used. I've gone through many. Galaxy buds, air pods, Lenovo buds, EKSA buds, cheap generic knock offs, Plantronics Voyager legend, Plantronics 5200. tons. None of them compare to the sound quality and call quality of these Shockz buds. They are over the ear, not in the ear, the bass is amazing, they last me 7 hours playing constant music and charge up enough to use the rest of the day in just 10 minutes in the little charging case that is INCLUDED with the purchase unlike others I've used. I work outside in the heat, and sweat like a pig at slaughter, but it doesn't affect my Shockz. They also seamlessly connected with both my iPhones and my Samsung Galaxy s22 ultra. All you got to do is open the case. Truly a magnificent piece of tech. Would buy again if I lost these.

Absolutely love my Shokz OpenFit! The open-ear design is super comfortable—I can wear them all day without any pressure or ear fatigue. Sound quality is amazing, with rich clarity and just enough bass. I can still hear my surroundings, which makes them perfect for work, workouts, and even walks with my dog. Battery life is solid, and the fit is secure. Highly recommend!”

First off, let me start off by saying that I’ve never been a huge fan of headphones / wireless earbuds. But, the Shokz OpenFit Open-Ear wireless earbuds surprisingly “Shocked” me of how well I actually like them! I work from home, and I am on the phone several hours a day. Instead of using a bulky headset that can sometimes feel suffocating, I decided to purchase the Shokz wireless headphones from Best Buy. They are so lightweight yet very secure, and I love the fact that you can still hear what’s going on around you while still being able to hear your music or phone call as clear as day. I wear glasses sometimes as well, and the Shokz wireless earbuds stay in place all day without falling out or moving. Connecting to Bluetooth on your cell phone or computer is a breeze and the Shokz app is very intuitive! You’re able to adjust the base as well as other sound settings, view the battery percentage, and upgrade any firmware needed for the Shokz earbuds. The battery will last you for an extensive amount of time without having to charge! I can use these earbuds 3 to 4 days - 8 hours a day without having to charge! If you’re looking for that open-ear fit with the lightweight yet securable comfort, then it’s time to upgrade to the Shokz OpenFit Wireless Earbuds!

Excellent quality, good sound, doesn't hurt your ears, good for running, good battery life, nice design and color, I recommend it for all types of people, especially if they are demanding with sound quality.

The Shokz OpenFit earbuds are a fantastic choice for comfort and awareness. Their open-ear design lets you enjoy clear, balanced sound while staying connected to your surroundings—perfect for workouts or daily use. Lightweight, secure fit, and impressive battery life make them a top pick for anyone who values both safety and quality audio.

Amazing Quality, Great sound and Comfortable for all day wearing. Battery will last solid 8hours without needing charged, charges to full in 30minutes in the case. Can use either R/L as standalone piece.

I wanted to give myself a good week or so before I wrote my review, making sure I had enough experience with these buds to properly word my thoughts and opinions. I'd previously used the Shokz OpenRun Pro Premium bone conduction headphones. I wanted something that I could use at work to listen to my tunes but still be aware of my surroundings. My back is turned to everyone else in the office, and with my Galaxy Buds Pro (also a great set), I was not able to hear when someone approached me, even with the noise pass-thru enabled. The Shokz OpenRun solved this issue, but one aspect annoyed me... as a dude with long hair, the band that went around the back with the OpenRun annoyed me (as well as the lack of bass, but that's just a minor gripe). So I decided to try these OpenFit Open-Ear buds... and my oh my what a fantastic difference they made!! They are not bone conduction like the OpenRun sets, but rather sit just inside your ear, still leaving the canal open so you can hear your surroundings. Of course at a higher volume, you'd be less likely to hear someone talking to you, but at lower volume, it's great for office use, which is exactly what I needed... and the audio quality is absolutely superb in my opinion. The bass is not super heavy but very clear and very noticeable. I listen to alot of Swedish heavy metal (oddly specific, I know!) and these buds are great for that! My only concern was that they are VERY light, and at first, I was afraid that they might fall off the ear, but I have them a good test, and shook my head vigorously like a crazed dog experiencing Slayer for the first time (at least that's what I'm told by my wife that it looked like) and the buds stayed firmly in place! Honestly, I couldn't be happier with this purchase, and would highly recommend to anyone who wants good quality clear audio while still being aware of their surroundings. Just don't tweak your neck headbanging too much to Slayer \m/

These Shokz open fit open ear wireless earbuds are amazing. I was looking for an earbud that didn’t have to go in the ear and I didn’t really want the full over the ear either. I like to wear one bud at a time to give my ears a rest since I wear them all day long and I like an open ear to hear my surroundings. I originally tried the Bose ultra open ear that clipped on the ear but they made my ears very sore after only using them for 1 day. When I returned them, the customer rep recommended to try these and I’m so glad he did! They are soft and light and hang on the ear. I was skeptical that it would make my ear sore having to hang on the ear but the hook is a very flexible and soft silicone. I hardly feel them at all and sometimes I forget that I have them on. The best part is that they stay outside of the ear and the sound is still terrific! Nice base and full sound. I’m pretty picky when it comes to sound so I was pleasantly surprised at how well these sound. I wear them all day long for meetings and everyone says they can hear me very clearly and they sound very clear too. Music sounds amazing as well. I’m very happy with this purchase especially since these cost half the price as my original purchase. The case is a wired charge until fully charged but is then wireless and keeps the buds charged all day. I get many days before having to plug the case in again. Overall - great sound, very comfortable, very happy. Get them.

I like the fit and comfort and they work great for phone calls. Wish they sat a little closer on the ear. The music is not as loud as i would like because of how they sit. They are also very sensitive to the touch. Tends to hang up calls or change songs if i need to adjust them while in use.

Pros: 1) Loved that I didn't have buds in my ears and I could hear the world around me; 2) They sound good, even with one bud in. 3) Better deal than Apple AirPods Pro (Even though you don't get the built-in functionality, etc.) 4) The case: solidly built, USB-C charging and you can get case covers on Amazon to protect it. Cons: 1) Volume: You can only go so high with it because they're not 'in' your ears, which I get, but when you have to have the max volume to hear it, esp. in a louder environment, that's not ideal. 2) Touch controls: A bit finicky, but I never have good luck with those. I was suspicious of them but thought I'd try them anyway. I accidentally kept hitting the touch surface when I had to reposition the earbud. They're responsive, but I prefer actual buttons. 3) The case: Wireless charging would make it perfect. I understand it'd probably make the case bigger/heavier, but if you can manage it, it'd be great. Overall, would recommend with the above caveats.

I have been nothing but happy with these. They stay on my ears and don't fall off. They hold a good charge. They don't irritate my ears. They have a clear sound. They were easy to Pair with my phone.

If you have ever experienced "itchy" or irritated ears from airpods or other in-ear earbuds, these should be your next go to. I have been more curious about the lastest technology coupled with tech that does not deteriorate out health. After wearing Airpods, Airpod Pro's and even over ear headphones, I am more than delighted to say these are my primary earbuds. Moreso, these are my earbuds of choice. When do I wear them: - Gym - Walking/ running out doors - Store runs - Phone calls - Working/ conference calls/ listening to music They are sweat-resistant and fit comfortably (even for someone like myself with smaller ears). The battery lasts me about a 1-2 weeks with my using them for about 2-4 hours everyday, and they are helping me minimize/erase any future "hearing-related" health damage. If you are concerned about the quality of sound, there is an app that allows you to specialize your hearing experience. These headphones have given me a great experience overall, and I have tossed my airpods in a drawer for the past few months.

I cannot do the AirPods because they fall out of my ears. I love the neck bands but they are big and and bulky and friends think it will cause cancer and strangers would use it conversational piece. These little guys will stay on my ears while running, jumping, and doing sit-ups, (which the neckbands will always fall off.) Sound quality is great as they don't cover your ear canal. Claims to be noise cancellation, but does not work well on an airplane like the Bose QC variety. But outside of a plane, these are great. I can pause my music with a touch and have a normal conversation without taking them out and misplacing them. Battery life is about 8 hours on each ear so both can last a whole day. I wish there would be a 15 minute warning when the battery is low. It only gives 5 seconds low battery warning and then shuts off. On a phone call, you need to be quick and switch earpieces or else it goes to the handset.

I was skeptical at first, but these are definitely game changers. Fit, Comfort, and Sound Quality are all top notch.

I’ve really enjoyed using the Shokz OpenFit Open-Ear Earbuds—the comfort, sound quality, and design are all fantastic. However, I recently lost one earbud and discovered that it’s not possible to pair just the remaining one to my phone. This has been frustrating, as I expected the ability to use a single earbud when needed. What could be improved: It would be great if Shokz could add functionality to allow seamless single-earbud pairing, especially for situations where one is lost or if someone prefers mono listening. Overall, these earbuds are great, but this limitation is something to consider if you’re prone to misplacing things.

I'm very happy with these earbuds. They sound good, are light weight, stay in place, and are comfortable. Battery life is fine. They are just what I was looking for. I had no problem with connecting to my phone while in the case as some reported. Good quality overall.

I have several Blue tooth earbuds always on the lookout for the perfect set and these shokz Openfit chech pretty much all the boxes for what they are designed for. Very well made very good battery life and super comfortable! No multipoint connection but I never used that feature anyway. For the way that I use them at work and around the house the battery lasts for me more than a day so I don't even take the case with me just charge them up at night when I'm done but I don't listen to music or videos all day either battery life may vary depending on how they are used I love the open run bone conduction shocks that I have but they're not as comfortable as these open fit earbuds highly recommend if you're used to bone conduction headphones for sure firstly I think they sound great maybe not quite as good as my Samsung buds pro 2 but you can't put these in the same class as in ear ear buds. To sum it up Glad I purchased these definitely have become my daily earbuds and I do wear them basically all day.

[Employee of bestbuy] I got fed up with my ears getting sore from regular earbuds (I tried different brands and different silicone tip sizes) so I decided to try these. And they have been GREAT. I can listen to music for hours and my ears feel fine! I love that I am also still able to be aware of my surroundings, too. The sound quality is great for an ambient type "earbud" and the mic for phone calls picks up my voice just fine--I have heard no complaints from those I've called about clarity or volume. Battery life lasts for longer than I anticipated which I am very pleased with. The bluetooth range is surprisingly long, too, before it disconnects from my phone. Would highly recommend for people who get sore ears from earbuds (or even headphones!) and/or like to be aware of their surroundings!

These are phenomenal headphones when you want to remain aware of your surroundings. I use them all day every day at work and can still hear and communicate with my coworkers. The sound quality is great and the battery life has been a huge upgrade from my previous headphones. The fast charge feature is also great because I'll let them charge quickly on my lunch to get me through the rest of my day. Only issue I've had is the charging case can be temperamental at times because they're just contact points and the headphones might not be charged. I've had to play with it s couple times to get them to charge. Which again has a quick charge feature but still inconvenient
