Shokz openrun

Good Bone conduction earphones. The Bluetooth doesn't connect with a new IPad, but it does on iPhone. The drop/start button on left side is a bit difficult to find and engage. Seems too flat compared to previous models. Sound is ok, not great.

New Shokz

So far these are very good. Have had problems with magnetic chargers working more than a couple years. Hopefully plug in is better. Sound is clearer on this generation.

I do absolutely love these

I do absolutely love these headphones as they have a great sound and are very comfortable and great for running and biking. I do recommend that most people get the Mini as that it seems to be the normal fit. The regular is just too large. I will also say that I am on my third pair in just three years because the buttons do fail after a while.

Get the Correct Size and There Great

I originally purchased the mini because it seemed to fit comfortably and not hang out so far behind my head. However, after a week of using the mini I realized two things. One, the sound quality was not good unless I pressed the headset to my head to get the high notes. Second, the pressure the mini put on my ear hurt after 30 minutes. So, I exchanged the minis for the regular and it made all the difference. I suspect the device needs to press flat against your head to hear the full spectrum of sounds and the mini was too tight and could not lay flat. Long story short, get the size the fits correctly the first time and don't be mindful of the bar stretched across the back of you head. As for overall sound quality, I am satisfied. I have such raging tinnitus that I am a poor judge of audio fidelity. I can say that I can carry on a conversation while listening to great background music with these. Wearing them while bike riding is also a big plus because I can hear the traffic noise around me while listening to music. It's like the world now has my favorite background music playing wherever I go.

Shorts out when sweating

Gets 1 star due to the fact that the headphones short out simply from my sweat dripping over the power/volume buttons. When this happens, the buttons cease to function - cannot turn on/off, can't change the volume, cannot pair - or even unpair. Once the device "dries out" (usually takes a week), they go back to working properly - until the next sweaty workout. Otherwise, I'd give this 4 stars. I like the bone conducting feature - though it takes some time to get used to it. Works great for outdoor exercising where you want to have an audio distraction (I suggest staying away from listening to music) but still want to be able to hear your surroundings to stay safe. I am purchasing a different model with a higher IPX8 rating

So far so good

Sound is really good, I just wish it would go down just one more click (at least I can control that one click on my phone). I use these while taking care of my grandma, but I need to be able to hear her if she starts talking to me while I'm doing the chores around the house and she doesn't like music, it's annoying, I can't clean if I don't have some kind of emotional support noise (her house is too quiet!) I do wish the shokz did have touch control like the different buds I have do. It is a little inconvenient having to take out my phone for everything from pause to next song to anything in between. So far the signal hasn't broken up while being in my pocket as I'm walking like my usual Bluetooth devices, but I haven't done any heavy walking since I broke my foot recently. So time will tell. Fingers crossed. Now as to the fit. They are trying to slide into my ear even though I continue to position them where they need to go. And dude! My heads small. I didn't realize that until received these (ordered the mini). I guess the tragus of my ear is not shaped outward so as to keep them out of my ear? I'll keep playing with them to see

Comfortable but performance is lacking

First off let me say that there are not any headphones out there for working out that are more comfortable than these. Since they don’t sit in your ear, they don’t trap sweat, they don’t cause your ear to itch, and they fit over your ear so never fall off…. 5/5 in that regard. However there are two big drawbacks that might be a show stopper for some. Volume and battery life. If you work out in a large gym like i do the background noise is relatively high. Since these are meant to allow you to hear other noises as they sit in front of your ear holes, you need to turn them to max volume just to be able to hear the stuff you are playing as the background noise drowns it out otherwise. Not a huge issue but one to be aware of…. So if you like your music loud, this will likely not satisfy your preferences as the volume is adequate at best. The bigger problem is the battery life. I have owned 3 pairs, and none of them have been able to do any better than half of the advertised battery life. The first pair i owned i thought were defective because of the battery issue, so i exchanged them. At the same time i bought a second pair so i could use one for the gym when at home and one for when i travel for work on the plane and at the gyms there. The battery life was the same for all three. I average between 3.5-4 hours total use before they shut themselves off. So i will fully charge during the day and use them for 2 hours at the gym that night, and when i try to get a second trip to the gym the next day they make it about 3/4 through that second trip before dying. For me, my needs require good battery life, so even the fact they are very comfortable is not enough to overcome its shortfalls. So if you have the ability and don’t mind charging them after each use, and also don’t need super loud volume, then these are for you and i would recommend. However, if you need good battery life and volume than i cannot recommend these. Comfort- 5/5 Volume- 2/5 Battery Life- 1/5

Didn’t hold up to what everybody was raving about

First off I would like to say I have purchased a few headphones. This is by far the worst. It does not even last one day without dying, it also doesn’t block out any noise around you, and lastly, the sweat builds up underneath and then irritates my head. Poor design and intending on returning.
