Great running headphones. Allows you

Great running headphones. Allows you to listen to music while not having the outside world noise deafened. I will gladly take the slightly less sound quality for safety. Performance is great considering they sit on the outside of my ears. Easy to setup and use. Complete control of my music from the headphones. I recommend to anyone who listens to music outside while wrking out.

Power Problems

This is my second pair of open run. This pair does not charge consistently and sporadically does not turn on. In order to fix the power up issue, I have to plug it in and then unplug it and it will usually turn on. However, this is when I find that it hasn’t charged. my first pair works perfectly but the second pair does not

Worth every penny!

I am thrilled with these! I love not having something in my (small) ears and the sound quality is better than in ears. I did get the mini for the shorter band, but I do wish it was adjustable. Even with the mini, the band gets pushed down and the ear pieces then move further away from my ears if I'm wearing a sweater and or coat. All in all I am a fan and customer for life. Listening to music/podcasts at work has made my life much better and the battery lasts all day if I remember to turn the power off when not in use.

Amazing life changing product

I have problems with my ears and getting infections all the time. This product has allowed me to listen to my music, podcasts and books that I have not been able to in a very long time. Because they do not go inside the ear, I don’t get infections. Life changing!!!

Love them !

I bought this to keep at my office because I use the first set all the time at home and couldn’t deal with having to remember to take them back & forth every day. I use them all the time. The sound quality is great and I don’t feel like it’s damaging my ears like my AirPods did.

Great Sound But Clunky

This was an "upgrade" for me from the OpenMove model. I loved the OpenMove but they cracked on me after 2.5 years. I went up and have loved the upgrade in sound quality but there are some downsides so far. Connecting to known devices is not as seamless as the OpenMove. I sometimes have to connect and disconnect up to three times for my devices to connect all components. This wasn't the case with the OpenMove model. I'm a fan but I'd like to see improvement, still.

Good stuff

These fit well and stay put during long bike rides and puttering around the yard. Connect w my android easily. Sound is clear and decent quality, but I'm not looking for super refined sound. I am still getting used to the control buttons. They could be placed in a more intuitive location, I sometimes have to poke around to find them. But not a horrible set up. Have been using for just a few weeks. Cannot speak to the water resistance or longevity. The charger cable is a unique magnetic connection, so don't lose the cable. Bought these to replace my Plantronics Backbeat Fit, which I used for years and loved. But their current Backbeat model has issues so I needed to find something else.

Good Sound/ Bad Mic

I bought the Aeropex version to use while teaching yoga virtually. They stay on well. Sound through them is good, although not great. Despite their claims, people near you can hear what you are listening to if you have the volume loudish. Unfortunately, the microphone is worse than my laptop and webcam's, so they are not useful for their intended purpose. Bottom line; these are good for listening to music during sweaty workouts, but not for listening to music privately in quiet environments or for communication.

Disappointed!

Third pair of Shokz and I hate to say Im incredibly disappointed. Bought these for the purpose of running the Boston Marathon. Morning of, they are fully charged, and died at Mile 18 - right before Heartbreak Hill. (Less than 3 hours of play.) So disappointed!! The sound is much softer than my last ones, I can barely hear the automated voice. Never could get three clicks to work. Like how light weight they are and hopefully they are water resistant but yet to be determined.

Excellent replacement for my original AfterShokz

Had a pair of old AfterShokz for years finally stop working. Got a new OpenRun pair to replace them. Great replacement, a bit lighter and nicer than the old ones. While I do like the magnetic charger, I kind of wish I didn't need to pack a proprietary charger for trips, the old mini USB were less fancy, but easy to replace. But, that's a minor quibble, overall they're even better than the old ones.
