Battery life doesn't live through running a marathon in 5 hours. I bought these with excitement the week of and should have tested ahead of time, but they had a booth at the Pittsburgh marathon booth so figured I'd try. Nope- died at mile 22 for the hardest last miles of the marathon. Sound is great but don't buy if you are a long distance runner. Or a long distance traveler. Mine are dead yet again from a cross country flight.

I really am enjoying the sound produced by my new Shokz OpenRun Pro. The only thing that I wish would be different is the the size of the headphones. I wish they came in 2 different sizes or if they were adjustable around the back of my head. Other than that I love them.

I love these headphones. It's like having background music in your head while still being able to be fully present with whatever you're doing. It's pretty fantastic. I like it for walking my dogs esp at night, so I can hear my surroundings if needed. The battery life will get me through an entire 12 hour shift which is awesome. And my phone conversations with family they have said the sound quality is so much better. I really enjoy these. I wish my head wasn't so sensitive cause 12 hours of wearing them and my ears gets a little sore. The part where they loop over the ears. Otherwise very comfy.

I use my Shokx as a great substitute for earbuds. I've never had earbuds of any kind that can fit into my ear comfortably. These ride on your head and deliver great sound without covering up your ear canal. You do get a slight buzzing sensation on your temples because of the way they deliver sound to the ear through your earbones, but it's never bothered me. Maybe sometime I'll try running with them, but that's not the primary reason I bought them.

The OpenRun PRO have been a total change to the headphone industry. Combining isolated listening while keeping my ear canal open has been extremely helpful while working from home. Since I have dogs and a partner in the house, I can hear all their goings on while not disturbing anyone with work call noise and music. I was even impressed by the connectivity ease and distance that was lacking on my work laptop with another "fruit" company's product. The PROs are light and sturdy which makes me feel confident moving around. I also have small ear canals, so in ears we falling out and hurting me. Over ears were just too bulky. For the sound, bone conducting is an interesting experience, and you have to consider what these are designed for. I do not understand how they achieve such great sound separation, but I was happily surprised. Listening to subtle sounds such as ASMR videos was very satisfying. Even while listening to something heavy and gritty like System of a Down, I could still make out all track clearly. I do not experience a booming bass, but that's not why I am using this product. Really low lows would take this product into the stratosphere I am looking for clarity and comfort and 100% absolutely the OpenRun PRO achieves this.

my thrid paid of bone conducting ear phones; had had several other iterations for AfterShokz; these are a little lighter and perhaps a little more comfortable than some of the others battery life is not as good as the Areopex or titanium; not sure it's worth the additional cost buti like them well enough

I'm a multiple-version Shokz owner. Love the brand and the earphones. I have a new pair of Open Run Pros. All of the features and performance seem to be there for this version, but there are two spots where this model seems to lack the performance of past models. The two-mode EQ does not make the same difference when worn in airplanes or used in noisy environments. Older models of Shokz had 3-mode EQ to assist in delivering the bone-conducting sound. Second, the overall volume in this most recent version appears to be less capable. Recommend back to 3 or more EQ modes and increased volume. All that to be said, best open-ear product on the market.

I've had these headphones for a week, and I have to say that the sound quality is great while I can hear what's going on around me when I am cycling around the community or walking from the bus stop to my college class in an urban city. The fact that I can hear music or calls loud enough and also hear my surroundings around me is why I will absolutely recommend these headphones to anyone, especially if you live in a city. It feels comfortable when it is placed on both ears across the headband. I thought that it would feel uncomfortable before I bought it and I realized that this is not the case ever since I tried it on. A feature I like about this is that this model has rapid charging technology. Shokz promises seemed to be correct based on my experience with my Open Run Pro headphones as a user of it.

I love my OpenRun Pros - I was able to briefly try a coworkers and was amazed. I ordered mine shortly thereafter. Easy to setup and only took a few hours of use to really become accustomed to the way they work and how they sound. Great sound for something not in my ears. No cords - no hassle. Thank you Shokz!

The sound quality is excellent. They're very well made. They're just not functional (for women). They don't fit. I measured my head, bought minis and they're still way too big/not snug. You can't lie down with them on (ie to meditate), put them on for a hike and then put a hat on in cold weather. The design just doesn't work (for me). They may be great for sitting at a desk but they're not good for anything active. They're sitting on my counter waiting to return them.
