Love them!

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!

Shocked

I gave these a try after I saw a co-worker using a similar product. I am amazed at the sound quality and comfort of the Shokz. What I enjoy the most is being able to still engage in conversations, while listening to music. No need to shout, pull out earbuds, etc. Can wear a mask and glasses with no problems.

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.

Overcoming hearing loss is my

Overcoming hearing loss is my biggest problem. Even hearing aids don't provide the sound quality for telephone, TV, computer that Open runs do. Fit is important, though, and if your head is smaller, be sure to get the mini rather than regular (I have both) because it affects the angle the sensor rests on your bone.

Christmas gift done right!!

I was looking for headphones that don’t go in my ear. These were what I was looking at for a while and my husband decided he had to have a pair as well. I got him the Go Runs in red. He adores them and has them on him at all times. Gave them to him Christmas Day and he has charged it twice since then.

mini size

I used the provided size guide and was right on the border between mini and standard. I went with mini and they fit perfectly! I'm very happy with openrun mini headphones, they're exactly what I wanted: comfortable, can hear surroundings (important to me for outdoor exercise), good sound quality, secure and don't feel like they'll fall off. They have good sound & microphone for phone calls too. There are certainly headphones out there with better sound quality and bass but it's a very acceptable tradeoff for the comfort and safety.

Battery charge unreliable

Initially it met my needs but I found the charging to be completely unreliable. It would show that it was charged but last less than an hour, some days 4 hours sometimes 8. I have no idea how long it will last and they are less than a month old. They met my sound needs being able to hear but I wouldn't buy again because I have to carry my old headphones as spares.

LOVE my OpenRun!

I have loved using my OpenRuns since the day they arrived! Absolutely would recommend to anyone. It’s simple, easy, comfortable and you’re hands free all the time. I always used to mess with an earbud falling out mid run, and I have yet to have any issue. Absolutely love them, and can still hear what’s going on around me!

So far these are pretty great

Generally I'm pretty pleased with my switch to Shokz. I wasn't sure if these were going to be for me but I'm getting used to them and enjoying the extra safety of still being able to hear. My main concern was the conduction style giving me headaches but nothing so far. I'm glad I got the mini as the cable behind the head would have been far more annoying if it was any longer. I do wish that cable wasn't a fixed one or at least be bent or flexed to be more out of the way (I have long heavy hair in a braid when I run and it would be nice to be able to adjust the cable to be closer to my head so the braid doesn't shift it). I occasionally have issues with the bluetooth connection cutting in & out but it's only happened a couple times so far.
