I've had 3 different evolutions of these headphones over the years. I had the OG Sportz (corded, orange accents), the Titanium Sportz (corded), and now these. These by far sound the best. If I had one complaint, it would be that the button on the left is a little tricky to find when wearing gloves, but that has always been a struggle. I'm sure as time goes on I'll get better at finding that button when riding.

I bought the regular size and after they arrived thought they were too big for me. I went for a run the next day and they fit perfect. I do wonder how the smaller size would fit on me. Great sound - while at the same time able to hear my surroundings.

I have the OpenRun's for myself and a pair of OpenRun Pro's for my wife. We both love them. Very comfortable and not having buds in your ears is really nice! I wear them all day and usually forget they are there. Call quality is great and sound quality is very good. I have probably sold an additional 15-20 pairs just as referrals to friends and co workers because they are that good. If I lost or broke them today, I would order another pair within minutes.

I like the concept of these but I think the execution could use improvements. I feel like these are not resting on my ears where they should be, so I have to have the volume maxed out to get good sound quality in a midly noisy environment at my work (and even then I can'thear some of my music properly). The volume up/down buttons are hard to use due to their size and placement (one should be on the side like the universal button on the left). Have a hard time telling powering on/off is working because I can barely hear the voice feedback when I do so. I didn't notice these issues right away so even if I did the 14 day trial that wouldn't have made a difference in realizing that they don't fit me correctly. It was only when I was adjusting them one time that I noticed I could hear the sound better, but it's not where they naturally rest on my head. Also, I have a job that requires wearing a hairnet and safety glasses so they may be causing minor interference as well.

Earbuds Airpods, anything that goes in the ear I can't tolerate more than 40 minutes due to pain. On top of that they fall out too easily and get lost. With my OpenRun Pros all the above is a non issue. What is an issue is they are so comfortable with clear sound, I forget I'm wearing them and walk out a range of my phone. Also, I wear specs and the OpenRun at the same time with no issue whatsoever. The controls are super easy for the senior citizen and that's important! I like things simple and I like them elegant... This grandma is rocking the pink and coral!

I lost my new Shokz headset so didn’t have the appetite to buy another, more expensive, new one. Instead but a refurbished headset - high model - for much less money. The set came in a package as if it were new and performs just as well. So far I am very satisfied.

Daith wearers rejoice! I didn't consider before getting my peircings that they would make wearing earbuds uncomfortable. The open ear design means I don't need to worry about any of my jewelry plans. It's also great to be able to hear people coming up behind me, I run in a busy park and awareness is key. My only quibble is that if there is traffic noise it can be hard to hear spoken words unless you turn them up fairly high - stick with music, not podcasts.

Openrun Pro… Pros: I’ve had several different brands to compare to the Shokz. These have a tighter band around your neck and made better then most, including the Inductivv. However, Inductivv sounds better to me at almost 1/3 cheaper. The battery life of these is way better, I must say. Bluetooth connect is superior as well. Cons: I’ve noticed that the excessive vibration of the speakers, make my ears ring for awhile when I’m not using them. I’ve also had a few headaches which I never get. That’s something the company might want to think about for future litigation. Other brands I’ve owned didn’t do this.

I am very impressed with the Shokz system. I use my OPENRUN PROs almost everyday and for at least a few hours each time. I am in meetings for work a good percentage of the week. The OPENRUN PRO offers me a convent way to stay in the conversation without being stuck in front of my laptop. The sound quality is more than adequate for voice conversation. Connecting to bluetooth devices is super simple and quick. When not in meetings I am able listen to videos and music without missing a call from my wife or a knock at the door. The audio quality is impressive for this type of listening. It was odd at first, not getting any spacial feedback from sound traveling through a given volume of space. Once I got used to that I really appreciate the experience and the conveniences it offers me. In truth it is that convenience factor that is the selling point for me. Honestly I can say I have forgotten I've had them on, simply remarkable. If I want to listen to music with full audio range I would use a set of loud speakers or a pair of over the ear headphones. In that case I am dedicated to that one experience and wouldn't want to make myself available in the way the OPENRUN PRO offers. When listening to music, I would describe the OPENRUN PRO's audio as thin compared to a set load speakers or over the ear headphones. The audio frequency range might be available but the actual force behind the sound doesn't contain the same punch and depth. Honestly, I would never consider the two listening options to be comparable. Can the most current Recording Techniques and HiFi Playback Systems ever replace a live experience? No and Never. Audio Quality : Very Good Build Quality : Excellent Battery Life : Excellent Experience of Use : Very Good Connection Options : Very Good When using the App - I DO WISH there was a way to toggle between bluetooth devices rather than be `listening` to all of them at the same. Also, more importantly I would appreciate having the ability to adjust the settings for each BT Device separately. So for instance, the option for the multifunction button to toggle the mic on/off when connected to my work laptop and play/pause when connected to my personal computer. I would rate the Connection and Convenience features as Excellent if these settings were available. All the Best Vibes to you and your inner ears :)

I want to love my Shokz Open Run Pro’s. They are very comfortable. I love the open ear design. Audiobooks and podcasts sound great! However, the audio drops out on most phone calls. This makes it very frustrating. It’s almost a dealbreaker. I can not recommend the Open Run Pros if you need to talk on the phone. But the audio quality is great and I want to love them. I am not a fan of in-ear earbuds. These solve that problem. Only if they worked better on phone calls. Very disappointing.
