Although the sound quality is a step up from the Aeropex, unfortunately there is little to no water resistant on this unit. Even with a bit higher than mild sweat, the sound will distort which leaves a sour taste when thinking about the older model I replaced it with. Bone conduction was never, in my opinion, ment to compete with higher quality headphones, it was ment for safety and hopefully reliability. I now realize I might have been better off with a downgrade instead of going for the latest, which I had hoped would mean the greatest. So overall the pros are better sound quality, faster turn on, and maybe better battery life. Cons: downgraded water resistant, higher price, not suitable for hard activities.

Love my Shokz! This is my second pair. My fiancé adopted my first pair 😉 The safety of hearing what’s going on around me and at other times the simply convenience of having a headset without the discomfort of an in-earbud are great for me! The sound quality is fantastic!!! Friends that have hearing issues have been brought to tears over what they can hear with my Shokz… amazing!!!

I am deaf to the point that I have to wear hearing aids. This works, as well as my hearing aids for television. Unfortunately, the volume seems limited on some programs, so I can’t get enough volume out of my headphones. My only improvement that I could recommend is to increase both volume and clarity of the units.

This is my second pair. After 3 years I wore out the first and both are great. I just wish you would route the microphone back through the headset so I could ditch my in-ear hearing aids. The bone technology would be much greater than just amplifying to an already damaged eardrum.

I love how they dont go in your ear and you can hear people talk to you. I wear at work and they last all day. They are comfortable, I hardly know I have them on. Ear buds I was always afraid if losing them if riding a bike or bending over. Not with these, I am safe. These are the best Ive ever had.

I've had these for several months at this point, and struggle with getting them off my head sometimes because they become tangled in my hair. If you have hair that is too short for a pony tail, but just long enough to be near your ears, beware! I regularly wear my hair in a pony tail just to be able to take these on and off without snagging my hair on the little seam between the bone conduction ear pieces and the little loop that goes above your ear. These are sadly weak, and have only gotten weaker as time had passed. They're still the best bone conduction ones I've found so far.

As someone that has used earbuds and headphones every day for over 10 years I can say these have been amazing and can't see myself going back to normal earbuds. I was also surprised by how well they work with glasses. I figured they would get in the way but my glasses sit comfortably next to them on my ears. Great product over all. A little pricey but well worth it for what I use them for!

The ability to use my headphones while remaining in contact with my environment has revolutionized my outdoor activities. The ability to safely listen to music and podcasts while cycling has made the activity much more enjoyable. Ease of control with volume buttons and the ability to pause audio or skip songs with a single button makes operation unbelievably convenient. My only suggestion for improvement would be improving sound volume in high wind situations such as cycling downhill.

The open run pro headphones are great. Sometimes I forget I’m wearing them as they are the lightest pair as I have now three sets. Battery life is great. The magnetic lock is excellent method of connecting. The sound is awesome though I’m still learning. I recommend strongly to purchase. As I have purchased five(5) headsets as gifts to my friends. I Will only listen now with Shokz headphones as no others compare.

After someone let me experience theirs I immediately ordered mine and so far they are exactly what I've been looking for. After trying almost every ear bud and/or headphones that are available from the major brand names these have out preformed them all in comfort and usability both in the work place and for personnel use.
