I'm 53 and have worked out over 10yrs now and never could find anything to stay on my head or in my ears during weight training. I do have a little hearing loss in my left ear so I really didn't like earbuds. But the Shokz Open Run Pro nailed it! I can still hear to speak to my gym friends and have a conversation. And answer a call if I need to with excellent clarity. Thanks guys. Great listening.

This is my third pair of Shokz, and I went with OpenRun Pro Mini because of the close fit to the back of my head. I like my others for when I'm up and about, but wanted to try the minis. I measured my noggin ear-to-ear around the back, and the fit guide said these would work. They do, and I use them almost every night listening to music as I fall asleep.

To start, I've been an AfterShokz fan boy for well over a year. I was put on to them by a good friend that had a pair of Aeropex. This is my second pair of Shokz. I had a pair of OpenComms that I accidentally stepped on and the button stopped working after that. I work in Telecommunications as a Tower Technician (Climber) so it is extremely important for me to have headphones that do not fall off. This brand does JUST THAT. The first quality requirement for me is not e cancelation, while my OpenComms did well, these Open Run do even better. In high winds (25-45mph) I can turn my head and the person on the other end can hear me perfectly fine. Sound quality is phenomenal, Bass is what you would expect from a pair of not over-the-ear headset, only slightly better. Battery light is SUPERB. I can talk, listen to music, audio books all day (12-16hr shifts) and I don't need a recharge. I let a hearing impaired friend try them out and they were able to hear audio clearly. The app that comes with Open Run is slightly lacking in features. I wish there was a way to customize button press on the headset, single, double, triple press variations. But that is simply an improvement recommendation versus a downfall from the headset. Overall, I absolutely, highly recommend them or any other Shokz headset.

I wear these every single day all day for work and use them in combination with a smart watch giving me the ability to pretty much never take my phone out of the safety of my pocket as I work in construction. I am able to hear the world around me to avoid dangers of the jobsite all while being able to listen to my favorite music or talk hands free on the phone.

First and foremost I love these headphones for almost everything. I use the primarily for work. Taking calls and teams meetings. They are perfect for that. I also love having my ears open in a long bike ride. I just wish the sound was a little better for music. I listen to a lot of audio books and they work perfect for that.

These are the bomb! If I lost them right now I'd buy a new pair on the way home. If you don't have a pair, you need to get them today. I'll bet I've sold at least a dozen pairs to friends and family in the last month alone. Everyone loves the mini size. Even my buddy who's 6'5"/250lbs and has a big head.

These are great headphones for running in the woods. You can hear music fairly well, and what is going on around you. When road running, car noises really impacts the noise you hear in the headphones. I used AirPods before getting these, and could hear music and car traffic fairly well. They aren’t super great for talking on the phone, as it’s hard to hear the conversation if there is any outside noise. I’d assume listening to a podcast would also be challenging. Sound quality is just ok. I am a female with a smaller head, and ordered the mini’s. I think the regular would fit poorly.

I was pretty disappointed in these. I ordered the minis and they were too big for my ears/head, so I couldn’t hear anything! If they don’t sit in front of your ears just right, you can’t hear the music. My fiancé has a really big head, and they fit him perfectly.

I LOVE shokz OPEN RUN headphones and was excited to hear of the new open run pro. Sure there are slight minor improvements such as 10 hrs battery life and a 9th generation technology. However 8hrs vs 10 is not much of a difference and 8th gen vs 9 gen who can really tell the difference? The BIGGEST nail in the coffin is the MAJOR downgrade in water resistance. An IPP from 67 down to 55 is shameful especially at the price increase. Then there are the cosmetics of the product. If I'm buying an update I want COLOR CHOICES and in this the pro fails miserably. To begin with the OLD ridiculously larger models are EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE and yet they are the ones which offer more color choices instead of the cozy better shaped minis. So between the downgrades the minor improvements and the lack of choices in the Minis I have decided to go back to my Open run mini. There's no reason to upgrade to a downgrade. Hopefully shokz will come out with a newer model with more mini choices which is an actual upgrade especially in regards to something as important as water resistance!

This are very comfortable with good sound and I like that they do not come off too easily. My only criticism is that the hoop sticks out too much and the battery life seemed longer in past models. A little more volume would help in noisy situations too.
