Shokz is the best open ear bone conducting headphones HANDS DOWN!!! comfortable, light weight, and great sound nuff said.

This is a great gadget for runners. It fits well in your head. You don’t feel like a heavy headset or a danger of an earbud falling when running. Well constructed. As for the audio quality is very average. The volume is low, and there is too much bass (coming from someone who enjoys bass a lot) which cracks the sound quite considerably. The equalizer options in the app can benefit from an upgrade. Had some issues connecting through Bluetooth as well.

I use these headphones while mountain and road biking so I can still hear my surroundings. As far as the sound quality these headphones are good for what they are intended for. I really enjoy deep base, but these do not produce much. However, like I mentioned above, these are awesome for what I use them for. The build quality is really nice and they have held up to a lot of sweat

I use these when I'm cycling and it enables me to be aware of my surroundings. Don't expect the best audio quality, but good enough to have tunes while I ride. Easy to use, easy to charge (magnetic), good battery life, easy to connect, comfortable. I'm able to use it with a helmet and sunglasses (thicker Oakley arms). Not great for when mowing the lawn.

Great fit. Good battery life, amaing sound. I can hear great sounds but still hear what is going on in the room around me.

These headphones far exceeded my expectations. I wish I had gotten a pair a long time ago. When I go for my long walks, I hear the music clearly as well as traffic and other things around me. Also, while doing things around the house, I can have a conversation while still hearing my music. The sound quality isn’t as good as a pair of earbuds I own, but it is excellent. Definitely worth the money in my opinion!

I suffer from severe ringing in the ears (Tinnitus), and have tried several other headphone designs to try to give my brain something else to focus on, but everything was just too occlusive. I drive a paratransit bus for a living, and must be able to communicate with my riders as well as hear what is going on around the vehicle. Apple AirPods Pro 2 was the closest that I got, but even though they have the transparency mode, it is still very electronic sounding, and frankly, its too distracting when you driving and they keep falling out. I tried a cheap pair of Bone Conduction headphones and was impressed by how well I could hear, and still hear my music. However, this pair (ONN Brand) had dismal battery life, and NO bass at all. I did research to find the best out there and settled on the Shook OpenRun Pro. I am very impressed with them! Although the bass is not 'thumping', you can clearly hear the bass of a song, and it mixes very well with mids and treble to give a well rounded sound. The battery life has been amazing! The description says battery life of up to 10 hours, and I figured that was probably at the lowest setting, but I was wrong. My shifts are 10 hours long, and I usually finish the shift and the battery is still at around 35%, listening at mid to middle high volume. This is awesome as I don't have to worry about having a changing cable with me. These seriously last me all day! These are not a cure for my Tinnitus, but they are sure a big help by distracting my brain. In quiet settings, I can listen to any number of apps that provide Tinnitus masking sounds and this in itself is a Godsend. I cannot think of anything I would change, other than it would be nice if they would slightly amplify my surroundings as I have trouble hearing some voices on the bus. Other than that, perfect 10! Thank you Shokz!

Ive had diferent models of shocks and decided to upgrade to get the 10 hrs and they are the best, the only but is that its not noise cancelling (of course!) Sonif you drive a diesel truck or are around strong noises its hard to hear. But didnt get it because of that, my ears dont hurt and i dont even remember i have them on. 10 out of 10

They are very comfortable I can hear and talk clear I love that I can listen to my music and still hear others when they are talking to me. Only down side is the power button broke and have only had them 6 months.

Awesome sound quality and good battery life. Comfortable and haven't had any issues with sweat or light rain.

My first pair of bone conduction headphones. Lovr it. Worth every penny. Light weight. Grest dound long battery life.

Nothing is perfect and so is this headphones. However, if you have ever had trouble with tickle ears from using in ears headphones then this one is for you. Besides that, what else is good with headphones. Good battery life, light, decent volume to combat wind noise when walking. What one cannot expect this headphones to do is to produce good sound stage especially when use outside. For me, this headphones is the best to use when exercising outside.

My job requires you to wear earplugs and these allow me to do that while still listening to music. Sound quality is very good, but it could be louder. With earplugs in they get even louder so it suits me just fine. The average person may find them a bit quiet though. Love these so much that I’m buying a second pair to replace the ones I lost on vacation!

I absolutely love the Shokz Open Run Premium Bone Conduction Open-Ear Headphones. The sound is clear and crisp. I have yet to receive a complaint about the sound of my voice on the other end of a phone call. That said, I have learned when not in use I cannot just leave them on my head over my ears and resting on my temporal bone. I have become acutely aware that I am missing sounds from my environment when I do. To be clear this design is leaps and bounds improved over my Beats by Dr. Dre Powerbeats Earbud Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Earphones with the tether between the two ear buds where that design directly blocks the ear canal. Until you were the Shokz you will most likely have a hard time understanding the dampened sense of sound - it is very subtle. When I ask other Shokz customers about this sensation they look at me sideways. Some have admitted later they understood what I was talking about. The solution for me is simple. I simply drop them to my neck if I am moving about or place them on my desk when working. The only other issue is with connecting them to my apple phone my mac book and my hp laptop. I was spoiled from the relationship between Apple and Beats. They simply just connected without having to constantly reconnect like the Shokz. Hope you found this helpful.

Very comfortable and it does not sit on my ears. This is exactly what I was looking for cause I use it at work and at the gym and I want to be aware of my surroundings. This piece is like a dream to me because my ears are always itchy because of my allergy problems I have so I don’t want to use regular earbuds and have to take them off every second.

I bought these as a Christmas gift for my husband. He was looking for something that was comfortable to wear but allowed him some ability to safely hear what was going on around him too. These are great because they stay on, produce great sound, and were easy to connect. A bit bigger than earbuds that don’t have the headband but still quite portable. Provided case makes it easy to carry.

I have a very difficult time finding earphones and headsets that work for me. Ear buds fall out no matter how many size options. Over the ear is uncomfortable and hot. These are heaven! Very comfortable, great sound! I've used for phone calls and friends say that I sound better than when I just talk on my phone! LOVE these!

These are the second Shokz headphones, after the first model I purshased years ago. They work great, sound and voice conversations are very good. Light and comfortable to wear all day.

Comfortable, clear and classy! These are my go to ear buds except in noisy environments, then they can be harder to hear than in ear or noise cancelling head sets.

I love Shokz! The charger port is unique but updated.
