Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had the original aftershokz. After about 2 years they quit working. These are better overall for listening without ear plugs in. Battery life lasts me over 8 hours and they're very comfortable. My only issue is that theyre quieter then the previous model so it makes it harder to hear with noise in the background

Luv em… good sound quality comfortable, good battery life and charges quick

These are comfortable to wear, extremely stable during exercise, and best of all I avoid the discomfort of having something in my ear for extended periods of time. Battery life is very good, app is easy to use. Don’t expect sound cancellation, but do expect awareness of your surroundings and very good sound quality.

Love the way these sound, and the ability to easily hear others when they talk to me without having to remove an earbud. It is almost as if there was music playing in the room and someone was speaking with you. This is hugely valuable when sharing a space with people. I also like the feeling of openness to the environment and "presence" when cycling or walking. I was a bit concerned about buying the steel blue model even though it was on sale, as the blue looked somewhat gaudy and childish/cheap in the photos. But it looks great in real life, more subtle and appropriate for a solid piece of equipment. Very pleased. It does sound a bit softer than other headphones I have, so I find myself setting the volume higher.

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.

Great for work set up is easy they sound great and are comfortable and these newer ones have a much better battery life

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.

These are great headphones for outdoor exercise when you need to be aware of your surroundings. Also great for doing yard work, auto work or anything that requires bending down. Too often my iPods have fallent out around the yard. Sound, comfort, USB-C, it checks all the boxes except one, I miss the full Siri intergration like my iPods Pro! I didnt realize how much I used Siri but I’m ok for the tradeoff for right now. If I want full isolation and sound cancelation I switch to my iPod Pros.

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

Surprisingly good sound quality from a very comfort headset. I actually use it primarily for gaming as I find prolonged wearing of headphones that cover my ears to be uncomfortable. Also its nice to be able to hear what's going on around me where with headphones it was like being in an isolation box. The one issue I have is that they don't appear to support Bluetooth LE so if the mic is in use it actually has to change the sound quality to a single channel low bit. This is apparently true of any bluetooth headset that doesn't support Bluetooth LE.

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

A good upgrade after my open run shokz that unfortunately broke after a couple years. The sound quality is a nice upgrade a the battery is great. It charges quickly and uses a USB c port, which is convenient over the proprietary connection of the old ones

It works great. No problem with matching it with my phone or watch. The music is very clear and the battery last for several hours over several days without charging. It even tells you the remaining charge when first turned on.

I bought these headphones for my wife. She loves to run and listen to music. These headphones supply the perfect balance between listening to music and providing a safe environment while running. The sound quality was great and they connect to her phone seamlessly I would recommend these headphones to anybody who’s looking for a sound system to exercise with.

The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 strikes a solid balance: much better sound than past bone-conduction pods, secure fit, long battery, all via universal USB‑C, while still keeping you aware. If outdoor safety matters most and you can overlook in‑ear fidelity, it’s one of the best in its class. Just be mindful of fit, durability, and that open-ear trade-offs apply.

Great sound and very comfortable Easy to connect and manageable via the app

The sound is crystal clear, the fit is super comfortable, and the battery lasts much longer than expected. Perfect for both workouts and daily use.
