I have a job where I have headphones in pretty much all day. I am around a lot of loud noises such as heavy equipment and high winds. I have been using Beats for about 6 years and I wanted to try Shocks. My hope was I would be able to listen to podcasts and books on tape without headphones blasting directly in my ears all day. I feel this was achieved. I have had my new shock headphones for about 2 weeks. The things I like is the sound is not directly in my ear and I can hear pretty well most the time. I use earplugs most the day which I also like as the noise level increases with earplugs in. What I do not like is the sounds quality is not that great it sounds muffled and somewhat distant. Some people have a difficult time hearing me on phone calls and after long use the headphones make my head ache. Overall I’d say the headphones are ok but I am a little disappointed for the sound quality at the price point and overall comfort. Hope this helps.

The open run pro mini for my head extremely well . The sound is so crips and I love how I can leave them on while I am walking around and they don’t irritate my ears. I bought two of the regular open runs for my family. I got these open run pros for me.

This is my third pair (my dog likes the taste?) and I would gladly buy them again because the comfort, controls and sound are simply the best. I have tried them all, in ear, bone only, open hook on ear. I just can't think there could be better sound. I'm a bass player, so you know that was a big deal, and these deliver.

I thought I would love this style and decided on them after I wore out the last shokz I had for 4 years. I'm so disappointed. They sound tinny and they keep disconnecting from my phone. They randomly disconnect when my phone is right beside me. My old ones never did that. A lot of money for something that isn't working.

I used the previous generation of Shokz for 3 years. The sound was perfect, unfortunately the headphones broke as a result of chronic wear and tear. I ordered the new generation (Shokz pro) since I was extremely pleased with my prior purchase. Though the new headphones are comfortable and the battery is better, the sound quality is much inferior and has a "muffled" quality.

The incoming sound is clear and the volume is easy to control. I’ve been told the outgoing sound is very loud, clear but loud, so I’m learning to modulate my voice. I listen to music almost all day long and actually forget I have them on! I only wanted to try the bone conduction ear phones just to see how they would sound….I love them. I use them for music as well as phone calls and the sound is clear for both. I’m very satisfied with my purchase.

Battery life excellent, last almost 3 days without recharge. Depending on usage. Very lightweight, barely feel any weight. Best sound when using phone. Conversation loud and clear. I’m deaf in one ear. Music sounds ok, needs help. I need help hearing when someone speaks… hint Shokz I am very pleased with my operun. Highly recommended!

The previous model was better with the volume and sound this model suck Anytime I’m talking to someone I can barely hear them and they can barely hear me the previous model I had I never had any issue like that , I would return this one maybe this one is defective and it cost so much I’m so disappointed !!!!

This is my first bone conduction headphones and I was surprised by the sound quality considering this are not in-ear. Crisp, clear sound with some nice-sounding bass as well as clear vocals when in meetings. Plus being aware of my surroundings. Worth every penny!!

Great product and convenient way to listen music and make calls. Comfortable, clear and easy to use. I bought one for about 10 years ago and this is my second set. I loved it. I also bought as a gift for my son, and my brothers. A total of 6 sets over this time. Badar
