These ear phones are great! I bought them for my 31 yr. old son who has Down Syndrome. Since Covid he has developed a sensitivity to noise. This has developed into behavior issues. He had become dependent on his sound proof headphones. His audiologist explained how this made his sensitivity worse. She recommended these Shokz. She explained he slowly needs to get used to noise in his environment in order to handle this. That’s exactly what is happening! He can listen to his music which keeps him occupied, and also hear the noise going on around him. My husband and I love them too! I know what my husband is getting for Father’s Day!

They fit well. I have shown them to many people when they ask if they work. I turn on some music, and most can't believe they can still hear everything else and the music, too. It is a very cool, great product. Quite a few people said they were going to get a set.

OpenRun has been a total game changer for me. I find ear buds really painful and could only wear big over the ear “cans” which aren’t very portable and look very silly if you wear them outside the house. But OpenRun are comfortable to wear all day. Now I can listen to music and podcasts wherever I am and easily take calls on the go. The sound quality is excellent, they charge quickly and stay charged for a long time. I love them and have given four pairs as gifts. I’ve even got my 79 year old mother-in-law wearing them!

I race Bici and discovered the value these bring quite some time ago. Since then I’ve bought them for every member of my family! They are great when exercising but also on conference calls so I can walk around the house while talking. The microphone is amazingly sensitive so no one ever says “I can’t hear you” and it allows me to have both hands free during casual conversations as well. I really love using them and when I do workout I can hear cars etc because they don’t cover your ears!

The good: I got a pair of these for myself and my husband recently, and we both love them. I got the smaller size for me (5'5' woman with small head) and got the regular size for my husband (6'1 man with regular size head), and they fit us well. - We like to run outside, and these feel much safer than wearing earbuds while we're around cars. - Also, my husband is always fighting with the need to clean wax out of his earbuds, and that problem is eliminated here, which is honestly the reason I looked into these in the first place :P - I'm also excited to wear them in the pool next summer, swimming laps is maximum boring with no sound. - I like that I can wear them around my neck when I take them off vs. having to hold ear buds in my hand when I take them off. - I like that if one of us is listening to something and the other starts talking, we can still hear each other without having to fiddle around and pull something out of our ears. The less good: I had hoped to wear these for work calls too, but I think the mic quality is not as good as my earbuds, so I am mostly using these for exercise and not work. One thing I would change - they don't turn off automatically after a period of dormancy. They don't burn a lot of battery when they're just sitting on my desk, but they stay connected to my bluetooth until I manually disconnect them, and I don't love that, esp bc I'm using other ear buds for work. If I had my way, they would turn themselves off after 10-20 minutes of dormancy. The take home: We are really happy with these and I do recommend them! We love them so much that I just bought a pair for my brother for Christmas!

I really like the OpenRun headphones. I find them to be very comfortable and the sound is nice. I can still hear when I have bikes coming up behind me on the trail. Too bad there is no charging information in the box. The manual is on line but the charging information should be in the pamphlet in the box.

We’ve tried other brands on/off-line and never had the satisfaction of sound quality, nor of ease of use, and/or overall quality. We started with Treks, then AfterShokz, and now Shokz, as the manufacturer updated its corporate structure and manufacturing technology. The best we have seen and heard, and continued to use.

Love the headphones themselves. However if I had a do over I’d get the other pair that’s like $30 cheaper. There is a number of reasons that is so. First and foremost being the other one uses a usb-c charging cable. Another is the charging port has a cover. On this one, it uses a proprietary charging cable. I have to order a replacement directly from the company as Walmart doesn’t sell them. Also the other one sounds identical. There is literally no advantage that I can see to get this one. Only disadvantages.

I like the ease of use, easy controls, and how light they are. It would be nice if they had a USB C plug in instead of the different magnetic charging cable, just adds another cable to keep up with. Not a big deal until you forget the cable then you’re out of luck.

Still fairly solid compared to earlier models. I bought them because I purchased the Aftershokz version from a friend about 4 years ago. I think I was hoping to hear improvements over my prior ones, but it is about the same. Also, it seems that the 2-eq system that was In my old pair has been made a feature of the pro line 🤷🏾‍♂️ Still... they are very nice and I love using them when I want to keep my ears open to hear around me.
