Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

Ive had my headphones approximately 2 months and have used them pretty much everyday. Im pleased with the quality, of the sound it gives for all types of music. Im older, so hard rock, heavy metal, or rap are not in my playlist. I love escaping into the music and the sounds each instrument being played, these headphones have that ability to give a clear precise clean sound. making my quiet time so enjoyable

Great sound , no problems at all. Worth every penny

Solid headphones, my goto's for my personal time.

Great fit¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent! So much more comfortable than ear buds!

These headphones are great especially if you dont want it inside your ear. Highly recommend!

Anything that covers my ear canals makes them itch, so these are the best thing ever.

The sound quality is excellent. I wish thr headband was adjustable. Its too big for my head, and thr smaller Shokz is too small…but..its ok. The multifunctional button is very hard to use. You have to physically press the button down, tapping the button doesnt work. I tried answering the phone, but couldnt get the button to work in time. I tried answering a call via my Apple Watch, thinking that itd click over, NOPE. The Shokz application took a while to setup. The application couldn’t find the headset, had to be rebooted several times.

Great headphones, no need to remove to be able to hear someone talking

LOVE THESE'S HEADPHONES!!! Very comfortable, great clarity!

Great experience, my husband love it his birthday gift.

Great quality over the ear bone conduction headphones.

Nice, not in ear is very good. The sound is very good. The color is nice.

Good for day to day. Would be nice if louder. But I really like these

The best experience ever listening music abd during calls

Works like a champ. Much better than in your ear headphones.

I love using these for hiking, running or listening to music at work. The only reason I don't give them a 5 star rating is because there is a proprietary charging cord. My previous version was just charged via USB c and was wonderful! I only had to replace because I lost my first set.

These are tried and true the best form of headphones for me. I just find that these new versions have a lower quality of sound despite being the "pro" version. I would go for the mid-level one next time. The open ear feature of these are irreplaceable for me though.

Overall nice technology. Since the sound goes through your bones and your ears are open, you can still hear what is going on around you. I use them at work when I have something I need to listen to that I don’t need the people around me to hear. It allows me to still converse with others and hear someone coming up behind me. I also use it for running so I can hear traffic and other runners looking to pass.
