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.

I'm a long distance runner and I enjoy listening to podcasts as I run, recently my old headphones died so I was advised to go for a pair of Shokz. In the shop they sounded great, nice and clear and really comfortable. But unfortunately when I took to the roads it was a different story. I couldn't hear anything over traffic going by, and I mean nothing. When I got off the roads and onto the trails it didn't get much better sadly. The breeze (not wind) also reduced the audio quality massively. So I'm afraid I had to return my pair and go for an alternative brand. I can see how these headphones would work in calmer conditions, but they are just not good for the windswept Wicklow hills in Ireland. Maybe as the technology develops they will improve but for me for now it's a strong pass for now.

These things are a hugh disappointment, whats worst, is the return process. Ive sent in for a shipping label 11 days ago and havent heard a thing.... They will not connect to my phone or my granddaughters phone, she has a pair, and they connect to her phone, Also, when they play, they shut off when they want to. At this point, I just want my money back

I have should have purchased these instead of those cheap phony ones that were supposed to be rated the best. I am very happy with these headphones. I had a cheap set of headphones, that died after the 30 day warranty. I like the controls that are on the headphones, and I like the sound very much.

I do enjoy my new Open Run Pro headphones, they are replacing my previous Open Run headphones which I liked until something came loose in the left earpiece and would stop functioning when leaning too far forward. I still use the Open Runs but do like the Open Run Pros better. The pro version is nice with the app as well being able to change to voice emphasizing for books/podcasts improves sound quality, they feel the same on my head but do seem to charge quicker, but they are new and almost everything new is better than the old version

These work better than I expected. Love that my ears aren't blocked out of peripheral sounds around me. I hate buds stuck in my ears. But the music comes in strong. Light on my head. These are the new way when it comes to Bluetooth earphones. The best!

Open design allows you to hear the surrounding environment, which allows me to wear it during work. I can listen to podcasts and still be able to hear my colleagues. The best part comes with bone conduction. I had been slowly losing hearing (no eardrum) until I lost it completely after surgery (hopefully only temporarily) when they had removed those three important bones in the ear. With these headphones, I still can enjoy music and podcasts!

Sound quality is pretty good and the volume is fine as long as there is no background noise around you. Riding in my jeep (with the top on and windows up) makes enough noise that it's difficult to understand podcasts. The mics work well for phone calls but again, you need to be in a place without much noise around you. They are comfortable to wear, even with glasses.

Spend the money! Buy the product! Shokz will change your life! But seriously, they're fantastic and worth every penny. I do everything in them, from working to exercising. I even fall asleep in them from time to time with no issue, although this is probably not recommended by the manufacturer.

This is my 5th pair of Shokz - including when they were named AfterShokz. And it's not my fifth pair because they had issues - they are amazing. Best headphones I've ever had for work, working out and overall comfort and safety. Ask my husband, these headphones are on me every moment I am awake. And when I swim - I use my Shokz OpenSwim. I appreciate how the company has continued to improve the product in battery life, comfort and sound. I cannot say enough good things about these headphones. Plus, the new ability to dual connect with the OpenRun Pro is amazing.
