The new version is a little less heavy duty feeling than the old but seems like it will hold up better. I sweat alot while running and these feel like they were constructed for this purpose. The charging port is updated and the new box instructs about not charging right after a workout. I have a feeling that was the issue with my last two that stopped working. Good so far! A little more quiet than the old version but still high quality.

So far I'm very happy with these. I have used them for mountain biking, listening to podcasts while doing chores / errands, and taking phone calls while driving. The sound quality is excellent and I love being able to hear what's going on around me. I still need to turn the volume down or pause when talking to others, but I hear enough of the surrounding noise that I don't feel like I'm in a bubble the way I do with over-ear Sony or noise cancelling earbuds. Quality and fit seem very nice.

This is my second pair of Shokz. My first pair served me well and I thoroughly enjoyed them. The only challenge was they were the large, which was awkward. When they broke I purchased this set in the small size. Much better fit. The styling has been updated which I find nicely done. They are comfortable, with good audio and good battery life. I recommend Shokz.

Easy to use and pair up with devices. I am truly impressed about how clear the music is or when doing zoom meetings, hearing the speakers. Also when using it for phone calls, no complaints of others not being able to hear me. Love the fact I can listen to music, but also can hear my surroundings.

I never thought I would like these as much as I do. The sound quality is amazing while allowing me to hear the outside world. I also love how they can hang around my neck when not in use. I work in a busy office and these work so much better than earbuds. Very impressed with quality, design and function!

I am obsessed with my headphones. For exercising, I can hear my music and what is going on around me - yet others can’t hear my music. It is amazing technology. I had never used headphones to take calls and did not intend to start but it is so unexpectedly easy to take calls on them - that I often use them for calls and best of all - everyone can hear me as if I am not on headphones. I got them to be safe exercising - want to hear if someone is coming up behind me or even try to talk to me. These far exceed all expectations.

The new Openrun headphones are great. They are so light you can hardly feel them. I do not have a big head so the two sizes are good. If they are too big they push on your neck. I can not keep earbuds in my ear ( they pop out when I sweat ). Bone induction make it so you can hear if some one needs your attention. These are also more waterproof as my wife killed my last pair. Just remember that they do not cover your ear so they may be a bit tinny , not so much base. I can live with that because of all the other benefits.

I love that these are not in your ears. But there is not much volumn available. I would wear these while walking outside to hear cars, but would prefer my over the ear noise cancelling headphones for quality sound. I'll try these out for a few more weeks, but may return them as the price was high for what they are being used for.

These are the first bone conducting headphones I have owned. They are comfortable to wear. Unlike ear buds, which always find a way to pop out of my ears, these headphones stay in place. My only criticism is that when sound first starts playing it is choppy - as if cutting in and out, but this resolves in just a few seconds and then it's not an issue. It's nice to be able to hear traffic while running or walking the dog. I'd definitely recommend.

I had my first pair of bone conduction headphones years back from this company. They were called Treks Titanium from Aftershokz. Now I have these OpenRun and they are fantastic. Lighter in weight and easier to use with just the one button to control things. I use them for my solo runs and long bike rides and they are perfect.
