Compared to the openfit2, its leaps better. More capable on low ends. The noise canceling is 7/70, can’t compare to over the head noise canceling headphones. But in a pinch, definitely reduce noice to a tolerable level.

If you have really small ears, don’t bother. Even with glasses it was a chore getting them to stay in. They aren’t super comfortable and fall out really easily. The sound was really good for being completely open though! I just wish they considered us glasses wearing, small-eared folks.

These things sound awesome!! They are a little pricey, but well worth it. I have had every Shokz Openfit headset and these Pro's are the best ones yet. I am sticking with the Pro's and the 2+ for my work headsets.

I am a fan of Shokz. I currently have three of their models however I was very excited for this one, but this didn’t fit my ear and the sound was leaking more outside than going in my ear. I tried using the accessory to make it fit, but I guess my ear is not made for that.

The only negative thing about these ear buds is the leakage of sound that people around you can hear. I know that since it sits over your ear and not in your ear you would have some leakage, but it’s a little more than I expected.
Hi Jonathan- Shokz here! We're sorry to hear this has been your experience. Enabling Noise Reduction reduces background noise, making the headphone audio clearer, while Dolby Audio enhances sound clarity and dynamic range. These two features help the audio stand out and feel louder, especially in noisy environments. Turning Off the Volume Limit will also assist with any low volume issues. For iPhone: Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Headphone Safety, switch off the Reduce Loud Audio feature. For Samsung: Go to Settings > Sounds and Vibration > Volume, click More, and turn off Media Volume Limit. For other Android phones: Go to the Bluetooth Settings on the phone, find the headphones and make sure that the Absolute Volume feature is switched on for them. If the volume is still not loud enough, we suggest customizing the EQ settings in the Shokz App to enhance the volume of vocals or bass. We recommend selecting the Vocal mode or Bass mode to improve the listening experience. Please reach out to our Customer Happiness Team if you have any questions. Thank you!

Good sound, good controls, worked well on phone calls and synced up with my devices very well I just could not get comfortable wearing them for any length of time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I’m really enjoying the Shokz Open Fit Pro earbuds. Let me start by saying that I also own the Shokz Open Fit earbuds and a competitor’s open ear buds, so I’m not new to open ear headphones.
The new Pro model has a high quality look and feel. There are metal components seamlessly blended with soft silicone for a great aesthetic. This new model brings physical buttons to the game, which I much prefer to touch only controls. They are not fully waterproof, but they are water resistant. I haven’t had any issues with rain or sweat.
I find them very comfortable. In fact, I often forget I’m wearing them unless I’m actively listening to music or watching a video. I also find that they are quite secure. They have never fallen out even during high intensity workouts or when bending down over and over to pick up weights.
The sound quality is really good for an open ear device. In fact, these are easily the best sounding open ear buds I’ve tried. Clear and powerful audio in all ranges, and the ability to customize the EQ to my liking in the app make them my go to when I want to remain situationally aware. I like the Dolby Atmos support but I’m not a big fan of the feature that keeps the audio centered even when you turn your head. That head tracking feature sounds weird to me. I’m skipping that one.
I was pretty excited about the noise cancelling features. I have to admit that I’ve been underwhelmed a bit on that front. I know it’s hard to do with open ear technology, but I expected a little more. I will say that it does help. Last year I took a flight with my old Shokz model and I simply could not watch a movie due to the sound being drowned out by engine noise. I took a flight last week, and found that, with the noise cancelling feature turned on, I was able to hear most of the dialogue (except for especially quite scenes) if I had the volume maxed out. It does work well in a less noisy environment such as a gym with treadmill noise, but you will still hear external noise. While I had hoped for a better experience, It’s definitely an improvement over the older models without noise cancellation.
Battery life is good. I’m guessing about 5-7 hours with noise cancellation on and probably double that if you turn that feature off. The charging case holds a decent amount of power and if you run them dead, you can charge up a few hours of listening time in as little as 10 minutes. No complaints here.
So, ya. They sound great. They feel solid and fit comfortably. Love the physical button. I like the noise cancellation, but I’m not blown away by it. They are pretty expensive in their segment. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed with them unless you are only after a high quality noise cancellation feature.
