Customer Ratings & Reviews

Amazing headphones. In ear usually fall out of my ears so I switched to bone open ear for the first time. Surprisingly good sound quality. I barely notice I’m wearing them. Super convenient for running. Very good battery life as well.

The Shokz OpenRun 2 are my go-to workout headphones, and honestly, I don’t think I could go back to regular earbuds. The bone conduction tech keeps my ears open, so I can still hear traffic, people, or whatever chaos is happening around me, which is perfect for running or working out outside. They’re super lightweight, stay in place no matter how much I move, and don’t leave my ears sore after hours of wear. Sound quality is solid for what they are—not crazy deep bass, but crisp and clear enough to keep me pumped. Battery life is great, and they charge fast, which is a huge plus. If you want full noise isolation, these aren’t for you, but if you like staying aware of your surroundings while jamming out, they’re a game changer.

Since they were released, AirPods Pro have been my go to earbuds. They’re compact, conveniently turn on and pair to my iPhone right out of the case, and boast excellent sound quality and noise isolation. Now that temperatures are cooling down here in the Midwest, I’ve been doing a lot more walking/running, biking, house upgrades, and getting back to working on my project car. Even though AirPods have tranparency mode, I prefer to have my ears completely unoccluded while I’m in public or anywhere there is vehicle traffic, especially when I’m walking my dogs. When I’m working on my project car, I noticed that my AirPods would constantly get bumped out or start to slip out as I get sweaty and dirty. I picked up the Shokz Openrun Pro 2s for these applications and they fill this role perfectly. Don’t get me wrong, I still love my AirPods for general daily use, but now I grab for my Shokz any time I’m doing any of the aforementioned activities. I was a bit skeptical about sound quality and adequate volume with open air headphones, but the Shokz do not disappoint. They get plenty loud, have clear vocals, and plenty of bass. It feels like you have your own private concert going on with the benefit of it not bothering anyone else who might be in your immediate vicinity. Because the Shokz wrap around the ears, I’ve had no issues with them slipping due to sweat or falling off if bumped. They feel well built and have nice clickly manual controls right behind your right ear. They pair quickly every time. The hard shell case they come with is compact and can easily be stored in or clipped to any bag. The Shokz app is pretty basic, but allows you to see batttery percentage and change EQ settings. Long story short, if you’re an active person who wants to maintain complete situational awareness at all times, these are the headphones for you.

I love everything about these headphones! I was never able to wear original Shokz headphones because the neckband wasn't large enough, The OpenRun Pro 2's are much larger and fit perfectly! The sound quality is fantastic and they have a long battery life. I love the bone conduction technology that allows awareness of my surroudings while I listen to music and podcasts.

love the fit of these! I didn’t even try them in-store before buying, and they turned out to be perfect. I mainly use them for my bike rides, where it’s super important to stay aware of the surroundings — and these are ideal for that. The volume is just right; maybe it could go a few decibels louder, but it’s not really necessary and definitely not enough to take away from a 5-star rating. The controls are really convenient too — play/pause, skip, and volume up/down all work smoothly. Call quality is great as well. Everyone I’ve talked to says they can hear my voice perfectly clear. Overall, an excellent pair of headphones for active use!

There are very comfortable and have the feeling of not being dislodge easily. The audio quality is clear with no distortion. Bluetooth connection was easy to pair with my smartphone. Battery charge cycle maintained per the specification.

If you're not sure if these are right for you, don't hesitate. Make sure you take correct measurements as to not purchase the wrong size. I have the mini and love it! I wasn't sure if they would be loud enough but they didnt' disappoint. I am able to hear my music and still be aware of my surroundings. These headphones stay secure on your head. Buy them!

The sound from these open ear headphones is nothing short of amazing. Good fit. Good battery life. No connection issues.

Great sound, comfortable headphones perfect for someone like me who has great difficulty with normal earbuds that have to go into my ears. These don't enter the actual ear and instead rest right outside the ear canal and are so much nicer to wear. Highly recommend!

This was a gift, my son says the hearing quality is crystal clear, good connectivity and comfortable. Since he is a marathon runner he is now able to move when someone says “ on your left. Being able to listen to music and hear traffic and surrounding sounds is a definite advantage.

Great pair of headphones. The features work great, I can navigate my listening apps, answer and end calls. Connect to 2 phones at once. They are lightweight and the sound is pretty incredible. The battery lasts well after my 10.5 hour work shift. I have zero complaints.

These wireless headphones offer great sound quality, comfortable fit, and reliable battery life. They connect easily and are perfect for music, calls, and everyday use

I use these in an office setting and they work amazing. Able yo listen to music, take ohone calls and still hear what is going on in the office. Plenty of battery life and can connect 2 devices at once.

Amazing customization in the Shokz app. I like being able to turn on the classic only bone conduction if I don’t want the speakers to play. The OGs came with ear plugs and I use some called loops and the sound is just amazing with mowing without blasting over headphones and getting hot ears. I have always had trouble with all types of in ear ear buds hurting my ears after 30 mins of wear. These are so light I forget I’m wearing them when I pause my music. The battery life and recharge are some of the best!

Love the comfort, sound is very clear and people around me can't hear the entire conversation. Love that I don't have to put something inside my ear!

Really like them, the souls is really good .. they are not your over the ear xlassic headphones sound , I have those too. I use them but I find I use these more, as I'm waiting for a phone call and don't want to miss it while I'm streaming from my tablet while listening by Bluetooth headphones I reach for these during the day. I highly recommend, I can be on my phone and still hear what is around me, that is excellent. Makes it an excellent choice, You can listen to your music, scroll Soc. Med., listen to an Audiobook, or a YT video, in a public setting, still be aware and able to hear if someone is addressing you, all while being courteous to everyone around you by wearing headphones...these help you...stay in the world... Not check out... Because sometimes you need to still hear what's going on around you for any number of reasons. I also got the swimmers pro, which also has its own storage, if you need to save battery or have limited data plan.

I was excited to use these OpenRun Pro 2’s by Shokz, as I had heard so much about them. Visually, they look “basic”, nothing really exciting about them other than that large band that will wrap around the back of your neck/base of your head. I put them on and I immediately knew they were not going to work. There is this large gap for the loop over my ears and rest outside the tragus (flap of cartilage in front of the ear canal) portion of the ear. They do not go inside the ear canal like traditional over-ear or in-ear earbuds. The purpose is for you to be completely aware of your surroundings if you are jogging, hiking, cycling and there are multiple points of danger around you. At the same time, you are able to listen comfortably to your music or podcasts, etc. The problem with me is the loop is so large that it rests way ahead of my tragus and I am not able to hear much of anything, even at full audio level. The loop does not conform whatsoever with my ears, I guess I have small ears? Even the band that goes at the back of the neck rests comfortably there but I was hoping there was an option to shorten it so that it can be snug around there. I’ve tried running outside with these on and I am able to hear about 50% of the content I had playing. At times, because they are on the larger side, they move up and down the ear and so I am afraid they are going to fall off. If I hold on to them with my hands and kind of move them back towards the canal, then I can get a more richer sound. Battery life is actually really good for these, as they lasted around 12 hours on my battery test. That is actually excellent compared to my other ear-buds that I own and use. Sound quality is not great as they sound tinny and not enough base. I would have liked to have louder volume on these. Overall, I do not believe that these OpenRun Pro 2’s are meant for me. They are just too large and don’t fit my head/ears. As a result I am not able to hear much of anything I am trying to listen to. Yes, they do allow me to be more aware of my surroundings, but I might as well be listening to my phone on speaker.

Its an amazing option, great open ear headphones, and quality is definitely up there. Great sound, good bass, you often forget you are wearing them.

Man, I'd recommend it. Sound quality is supreme. The wearibility is comfortable and convenient

Overall, an excellent product. Light-weight, clarity on sound, and has a secure fit.
