Product is actually good quality

I didn't think it would work for me since after the war in Afghanistan and having high tinnitus. These headphones help the with bypassing my ear drums and getting the sound where I need it most. Honestly, Shows should come up with a product line that utilizes the same tech, combined with hearing aids for people with hearing issues or the elderly! I usually do not put 5 stars or marks on anything because there is always room for improvements. Add additional features for more customizable capabilities in the software and hardware.

Terrific upgrade from older model

I had the originals, so waiting so long for this generation is a marked difference. My last finally just snapped right at the earpiece. These are super light and do not interfere as much with my glasses and sunglasses like the last. In other words, no pain after a couple hours of wearing them. The sound is great, and I've always appreciated hearing my surroundings. Talking on the phone/mic is apparently very clear on the other end. Highly recommend.

Too big

They need a smaller open run pro! These are too big and are constantly getting caught on my shirt and jacket collars! Too loose and keeps flopping around when I'm active. I hate it, which is upsetting because for this price I'll have to use it for the foreseeable future. That's what I get for wanting water resistant for running AND long battery life for my 12 hour work shifts.

Shokz Headphones for Runners

I'm a relatively new runner within the past year, and have worked my way up to running longer distances. I was in the market for new headphones that would allow me to attend to my surroundings when running through my neighborhood while still enjoying music. I've been pleasantly surprised by these open ear headphones. I unfortunately have to wear a few other items due to severe allergies (filtered allergy mask, sun glasses) but the headphones still fit comfortably with everything else around my ears and don't budge. I've used them twice so far and worked up a sweat and they appear to be pretty resilient against the extra moisture (and easy to clean). I wasn't expecting significant bass or anything like that, but the overall sound quality is good. If you are around something else that is emitting louder sound (passing car, dog) you will hear that over any music, but that's the point. The battery life seems pretty good, and they charge relatively quickly. So far, I'm impressed! I hope that they continue to hold up with extended use.

Just try them, you will not regret it.

I don't typically listen to music unless it's through the radio in the car, but a coworker introduced me to these and I fell in love. I work in an aircraft hangar where hearing is imperative, so having this is just amazing. I can listen to my favorite songs while also being safe on the job. This is my first experience with bone conduction open ear headphones and I'm totally hooked. I will never not use these headphones. You can't even tell that you have them on! I often forget that I'm wearing anything at all. I can't forget to mention the battery life. I've only had to charge them a handful of times and that's only when the battery was only at medium, after a few days of use. The quality is amazing and songs have never sounded better. The quality and clarity of the openrun pros is amazing.

Sub-standard (worst) audio quality on Mac

I bought the headphones since the were promoted with "Premium Sound Quality" and compatibility with Mac. Unfortunately, there are two very disappointing showstoppers (in a nutshell version): - the headphone mutes automatically when connecting to the mac (mitigation described below) - the headphone mutes itself in the middle of calls spontaneously (mitigation described below) - the audio quality is really sub-standard when using the mic (Shokz know, but not interested/able to fix it) --- Long version: Muting when connecting to Mac: An "Aggregation Device" with the openrun pro >mic< needs to be created in the "Audio Midi Setup". This will mitigate the issue. Random Muting Issue: The Shokz support pointed me to a 3rd party chrome plugin which disables the "automatic gain control" in chrome. Unfortunately, not every application provides such an option, so the random muting continues when using these applications. Search for "Disable Automatic Gain Control" by Joey Watts in the Chrome Web Store. Audio Quality: After several rounds with the Shokz support I got now a mail saying that they are aware about the audio issues with MacBooks but not interested or able to fix it. If i'd like to use the headset it with a Mac and want to have better audio quality, I'd should go and buy another of their headphones - the OpenComm UC. This comes with an USB plug, which is not acceptable when buying a bluetooth headset. It's 2022, not 1990. A macbook air comes with 2 usb ports, and I'm not going to block one of them permanently to use a bluetooth headset. If you manually select the laptops built-in mic, the audio quality "magically" becomes good. So it's simply a bug they're declining to fix.

OPENRUN PRO Review

These headphones are my third set of Shokz I have owned. I have to say the two features that drew me to them instantly was the color and the improved magnetic charging connection. I have long thought that beige colored phones would be really advantageous as they tend to disappear against my skin coloring. I often prefer to wear phones without them being noticed. Sometimes I don't even have them in use so I like them to go unnoticed and this new color just does the trick. I also like the charging connection because it eliminates the little rubber cover on my previous models. On one set the rubber has stretched and it will no long stay closed. My only concern is now the charging cable is a proprietary connector which is not as ubiquitous as the mini USB connectors in previous models. I hope that Shokz makes that cable available as an accessory so I can have a few of them in various places to avoid be away from charging capability anywhere I travel.

Sooo Comfortable and clear

I can't believe how these sound so good going through your jaw! It's like listening to an exterior speaker in the room and you're still able to hear people clearly. They can't even hear a thing from then. So long to earbuds falling out or your ears getting smashed when leaning against a chair or window like on a plane. I can also wear glasses and headbands with no interference. I love the easy start/stop button. I'll never use any other type!

Enjoying my new Open Run Pro headphones

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
