These headphones are a game changer. The sound quality isn't great for music - it's sending your sound through bone, after all, but they're absolutely perfect for watching movies, videos and phone conversations. The sound is clear and true enough for these purposes. If I want to immerse myself in music, I'll use my Bose. The battery life is great for the small size. I've worn them all day and I've not had the battery go dead yet. They charge very quickly, too. I'm not overly crazy about the proprietary charging cable, but for a few dollars, you can get an adaptor to be able to use USB-C cables. Replacement Shokz cables are available, too. The main feature of these headphones is the ability to hear your surroundings or have a conversation while listening to music or videos. They're perfect for walking, jogging, bicycling or just staying aware. These are not meant to cancel noise, but just the opposite, and they do their job well. One of the most important features is the comfort. This is huge on my list because I have small ear canals, and I've found only a couple ear phones prior that would not only stay in my ears, but do it fairly comfortably. Those were both made by Bose, and one is discontinued. Even those would hurt my ears after a couple hours. The Shokz Open Run Pro headphones are the most comfortable I've EVER had. I literally forget I have them on. I've worn them for ten hours and suffered zero discomfort. That alone outweighs any forfeiture of sound quality. In short, these headphones do what they're meant to do and they do it brilliantly.

I’ve been using the Shokz OpenRun Pro headphones for a few weeks now, and they have been a game-changer for my workouts. The bone conduction technology allows me to stay aware of my surroundings while enjoying my music, which is perfect for running and cycling outdoors. The sound quality is impressive, with clear audio and good bass. The headphones are lightweight and comfortable, even during long sessions. The battery life is excellent, lasting through multiple workouts without needing a recharge. Connectivity is seamless, and I haven’t experienced any dropouts or issues. Overall, the Shokz OpenRun Pro headphones are a fantastic choice for anyone with an active lifestyle. They offer great sound quality, comfort, and safety features, making them well worth the investment.

I bought these headphones for my dad as a birthday gift since he is someone who works a lot with his phone and needs to be constantly on the move They're VERY light and comfortable. The moment you put them on, you forget they're there. They don't move around (no matter how much you sweat) and the band that goes around the back of your head doesn't get caught when you turn your head, even if you're wearing a bike helmet. And even if they do happen to move a little, you don't notice because it doesn't change the audio quality or volume, and you never feel like they're at risk of coming off. They're easy to put on and take off too. They're great for audiobooks and podcasts, which is what I use them for. You can still hear everything that's going on around you. Absolutely no problems fitting them with glasses or bike helmet. Again, for me, it's like they're not even there. The volume is pretty good. You can hear the audio over MOST external noises. (More on this below.) Solid battery life. Good, big, actual clickable buttons. No unreliable gestures.

Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, for the auditory Olympiad is about to commence. If you've ever embarked on a fitness journey only to be disrupted by an epic, unwanted game of 'catch the earbuds', I've got news for you. Enter the un-slip-able, un-sweat-able, all-around impeccable headphones that scoff in the face of the sweatiest workouts. I mean, I broke into a sweat just typing that. These headphones aren't your average earlobe squatters, oh no. They're designed to hover gently around your ears, providing a secure yet breathable fit. No more wrestling matches with rogue earbuds during that final lap or set! Are you a fan of immersive sound without compromising your grip on reality? I present to you these headphones - the perfect alchemic blend of sound isolation and environmental awareness. Listen to your guilty pleasure pop hits, your insightful podcasts, or that murder mystery audiobook that's better than coffee, all while being able to eavesdrop on the world around you. How else would you stay updated on your neighbors' gossip during your morning jog? In all seriousness, these headphones bring something to the table for everyone. Crisp, high-quality sound? Check. Superior comfort? Double-check. An ability to stay put through even the most vigorous workout? Triple-check! Whether you're a gym rat, an audiophile, or someone who just loves a great pair of headphones, look no further. These babies are a sound investment. Pun intended, of course. Trust me, or better yet, trust your ears. These headphones are the perfect soundtrack for your life's movie, sweat-soaked scenes included. Do yourself a favor, and make them your next purchase. You'll be tuning into audio heaven before you can say 'encore'.

We absolutely love our new Shokz openrun pros. We had the ORIGINAL AfterShokz and after many years it was finally time to upgrade to something new. After owning my OG shokz for so long and wearing them daily I knew this was the onky brand I would be buying so I got the latest release and absolutely LOVE them just as much as my old ones. They are comfy, I can hear everything around me yet still talk on my phone or listen to my music while being aware of my surroundings. The sound is absolutely amazing l. The battery life is great and they are super easy to connect to your phone. I highly recommend if you are thinking about getting a pair of these DO IT!!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.

The Shokz OpenRun Pro delivers impressive bass and clarity through bone conduction, ensuring situational awareness during workouts. Its lightweight, sweat-resistant design and secure fit make it ideal for runners and cyclists. While not as bass-rich as in-ear models, it offers a comfortable, open-ear experience for active users.

So I purchased these for my mom as a gift, but I still had to check them out since I am at work conferences a lot. The color is beautiful and the lok attractive, they have a matte finish which makes them look very professional. Sound: The sound is pretty good. Only on the highest volume I could hear a bit of crackling, but I mean who wants to always max out the sound. I was surprised people around you won’t hear what you’re listening to. Fit: So they are very flexible around the ear and adjustable. My only struggle was that the loop that goes around your head/neck was too big. So if I wanted to lean on my work chair I could not do it without noticing the headphones. They have a smaller size though, which I did not know of this when I got them. It’d be great if they were adjustable. Calls: nothing to complain, I think it is great because you can still hear your surroundings. Specially, if you are in a work area where you’d like to hear yourself when talking on the phone. If you are in an environment that is very loud it will be hard to hear even at max volume. Another point to highlight the headphones do not catch every single noise around you, so people on the other side could you clearly. I did not use them for exercising at all, so I wouldn’t know how the behave there. Connectivity: Was very easy and quick. It is also possible to switch devices without it getting hung up or anything. One to to highlight was that is that because they are on you ear they help with reducing ear inflammation like the in ear headphones give. Overall, I think they are a great purchase especially if you’re working from home. I would recommend to people and just suggest to check they size.

Several coworkers have started rocking these, so I decided to grab a pair. First thing I noticed was how odd it felt listening to music on these things. Deep bass seems to really rattle the jaw. After adjusting, however, these are probably on track to be in my top 5 wireless audio devices. The sound is a little quiet, but given how they work, that was expected. Expect to run these a bit louder than you would over-ear or earbud style devices. Call quality is great. Crystal clear and easy to hear and be heard. Again, somewhat low, so run them a bit louder than average. Dual device hook up! Once paired with a smartphone and setup through the Shokz app, you can pair these with two devices at once. Especially helpful, as I have a work cell and my personal. Calls will ring in from either phone and connect. You can also pair them to a bluetooth enabled computer and use them as a desk headset. Arguably my favorite feature here! After a full 10+ hour day coming off a full charge, I was seeing battery remaining at around 75-85 percent. This was with on and off music, phone calls, and changing paring between multiple devices.

They are the best sound is great easy to navigate battery life is very good light weight don’t hurt your ears flexibility is very good colors nice selection hopefully they will just keep updating and getting more technology every year I like the mini the best they fit around your head very well keep buying them there is nothing to compare them to keep up the great work thank you.

I like the conduction headphones much better than the in-ear type. This brand is easy to use, works well, and most of the time I don't even know I have it on. Does not fall off. Also, it recharges quickly and lasts the full day.

Great for running and daily activity I love that I can hear my surroundings but also the music or podcast. Very comfortable and easy to use, holds a long charge which is nice.

I absolutely hate earbuds, and I can only wear over the ear headphones for so long because of my glasses. These are really neat. Sound quality: excellent. Fit: excellent. Battery life: excellent. They don't slide around while im moving. You can hear music/audiobooks and your surrounds without sacrificing quality. I would buy them again.

I'm hard on tech, I seem to always find issue with some design decision or another, quality problem, or software nonsense. So far I can't find anything of consequence to gripe about. The sound is surprisingly great and on par or even slightly better than my Galaxy Buds Live, I can hear whats going on in my environment while still hearing my music well, the microphone is surprisingly good for calls, I dont have to remove or adjust them to talk to people face to face, and I dont get the stuffy feeling that I get from ANC buds. Battery life is incredible and they dont look bad. But the really nice cherry on top is that they are ALL DAY COMFORTABLE. Ive never been able to say that about headphones before, even with the super comfortable Galaxy Buds Live. I do wish they had the same funtions as my Buds Live like the ability to read aloud my notifications, but aside from that my only other complaint is that I didnt find these years ago.

The best headset around for cycling. I can hear 360 degrees and feel safe. The fit is perfect with my glasses and helmet and makes it easy to hear my music as well as control calls

This is my first experience with bone conduction and I love it. These are perfect for wearing at home when I'm listening to something but still want to be able to hear my wife calling me or the doorbell ringing. The sound quality is also great on phone calls. I'm also prone to sinus infections, so I like not having my ears stopped up. I still use an in-ear set at the gym.

Great sound, comfortable to wear. Only issue is that when my husband wears daily and works outside in heat it shuts outs or down when he starts to sweat. It was supposed to be water proof and the company honored warranty and replaced.

The Shokz OpenRun Pro headphones are impressive. The sound quality is clear, the bass is stronger than expected for bone conduction, and they’re super comfortable for long use. Perfect for running or driving since they let you stay aware of your surroundings. Battery life is great too. Highly recommended!

I love using these for my runs. It keeps me aware of my surroundings without disrupting my music. Very comfortable, good battery life, and cute color.

For athletes these are one of the best options available. There is a lot to like here. There is literally no risk of losing your buds. They're comfortable and fit well. You can hear and enjoy the music. Battery life is good. When they're connected they're connected. And it does allow you to hear oncoming traffic and your surroundings. If you work out, this is for you. I knock them down a star because they're not loud enough (although that may be by design) even in relatively quiet environs. The sound quality also is not the best, it could be better. They use a proprietary charger which, while not hard to find online, is proprietary nonetheless. Also I had problems with the microphone in calls more than a few times. And mowing the lawn they couldn't out power the mower. Even if you're an athlete, these are factors to consider. If you're an athlete or work out a lot this is one of the very best options out there. If not, look elsewhere.

These headphones are everything. I was searching for something that has good noise cancelling but really was looking for something that had a good transparency mode because I use these headsets for work. I've tried air pods pro, Samsung Galaxy buds pro, Sony xm4's, and the Boseqiuet comfort buds 2. The Shokz are my most used. I only use the Bose when I cut the grass. I wear the Shokz everyday all day at work and I love them. It's great to be able to leave them on while talking with coworkers but also be able to answer a phone call. You can watch videos or listen to music and still be aware of your surroundings. My wife is a runner and loves them because she can hear traffic and ambient noise while still listening to music. The sound quality is not as good as the other buds mentioned above but it is good enough for what I use them for. They are comfortable and last all day. Definitely recommend.
