Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have difficulty use using this item in an area that has any amount of regular noise. You have to really concentrate and learn how to tune everything out.

Battery life pretty short compared to other wraparound headsets I've used. Proprietary charger was a constant annoyance, just make it USB-C like everything else. Stopped powering on after about 6 months.

Work perfect for the gym and cycling.You are still able to hear your surroundings, but your focus is on the music

These are great. I have no issues with the bass, or the clarity for music or for calls. the microphone is great.

THE GOOD ~ Lightweight ~ Hard carry case ~ Decent sound (but with issues) ~ Can hear ambient sounds, conversations when you want ~ comfortable THE BAD ~ proprietary Charging ~ Issue with deep bass and/or loud music OVERALL There are some things to enjoy about these headphones. For some people, they may be great. For others, if they experience the issues I do, they're not so great. These come with a large, hard carrying case, which is nice. I can throw them in my gym bag without worrying about them getting torn up. The Shokz headphones are fairly comfortable. Because they hang over the ear, they don't hurt your ear canals after prolonged usage like some earbuds do. Phone call quality is good. I had no issues hearing or being heard. The first thing I noticed that I didn't like is the proprietary charging. Everyone and everything seems to be going to USB-C. I'm not sure why the designers here decided to go with something completely different. It isn't a deal-breaker for me, but it is annoying to need to have 1,000,000 different chargers/cables for everything because electronics companies want to be different or make more money selling car chargers and such. The sound quality is decent, however, there are issues. Perhaps it is simply my anatomy or a bad pair of headphones, but when I listen to loud music (volume around 40% and higher) or with a lot of bass, I feel like the bones in my face by my ears are vibrating. It's a rather unpleasant feeling. Enough that I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who likes heavy bass or loud music. As someone who spends a lot of time at the gym and running, I like to drown out the outside world and distractions when working out. The vibration prevents me from getting these loud enough for that sometimes. Other times, it doesn't matter. My workout partners like to talk sometimes. With these headphones, I can have the music in the background while maintaining a conversation. I wanted to love these headphones because of the comfort. The fact is, though, I barely like them. I will keep them and use them as a back up pair and for times when I know I'll be chatting or won't want my music too loud. WOULD I RECOMMEND THEM? This is always the true question of an item's value. For me, the answer is, for 1 or 2 out of 10 people, I *might* recommend these, but for the most part, no. I wouldn't suggest someone get these. That vibration is just that bad for me.

Does not really wow me. Some what uncomfortable at times. Don't expect surround sound out of these. These connect weird as well. Sometimes have to disconnect Bluetooth and then reconnect.

After wearing fur a short period of time it hurts my ears

The best headphones on the market! Hands down, these are a must for work atmospheres & running in public!

The noise makes the headphones to vibrate, it can be disturbing

Everything is ok except while cycling in moderate wind no one can hear me in calls. They hear loud static. Currently talking with support who has admitted this issue and I may have to return them if a fix is not shortly available.

A great idea for headphones. Unfortunately, they hurt my ears when I run with them. It may be because they are too big. What's even more disappointing is that when I went to return them, I discovered that I mist the return window which is only 2 weeks. Most places give you 30 days and I was very surprised Best Buy only gives 14 days. A big reason for the low rating.

Open Ron used to be my favorite, but I see that there are other products on the market that are better

Great product and excellent customer service, but these headphones repeatedily fail. While I appreciate the warranty, I've owned four pairs now and all have had issues (mostly charging problems). I bought this pair in Apr 2024 and have already made a warranty claim (Nov 2024).

Good buy I have in the ear buds and over the ear headphones and the open ear sounds great and you can also be aware on what’s going on around you!!

Found a great set of headphones for the gym that can get sweatie and still stand up to the task.

Great ear piece Ive had them for the past 4 years and they upgrade the quality every set ive owned

Better than the cheaper version. Definitely fit better than the others even on smaller heads

These ones are a great improvement from the last generation, I am really enjoying these ones.

You dont get great sound since they dont go inside your ears. They are good for hearing your music but also hearing the outside surrounding noises.

Can hear everything around me and my music, and it doesn't bounce around like my neckbands.
