I actually got these so that when I had music on at work, I could still hear people walk up behind me. I love them for group runs though. I can wear them with the music paused and hear conversations clear as day and then when I am on my own, I can quickly turn the music on. I think I should have bought the smaller pair though!

Best blue tooth device I’ve tried. Allows me to wear earplugs for protection in noisy environments and still listen to music and take phone calls. Regular ear buds just fall out of my ears when working and moving around. Open Run stays in place and sound quality is as good if not better than ear buds.

I purchased the Open Run Pro in black and am very pleased with them. In the past I have bought very high end In Ear Monitors and the Shokz bone conduction headphones are superior. They have excellent sound quality, great bass, and are easy to pair via Bluetooth. They are noise cancelling but still allow you to hear your surroundings. I walk a trail daily, so these allow me to feel safer than when wearing IEMs. I highly recommend them, the sound and quality are amazing.

I've only worn them once so far but they worked out great. The color is as pictured (beige, which I love). Clarity on the sound was as expected. Bonus for not having to keep pulling out an ear bud to hear around you or talk to someone. Thumbs up for me.

I have had earlier models back when the company was called AirShokz, including the Air. By comparison, the OpenRun Pro are too quiet. If I'm in any sort of environment with noise, I have trouble hearing it, unlike with the prior models. I do like the magnetic charger attachment, although I'll miss being able to just find a random mini-USB cable to use like I could with my old model.

Shokz Open Pro Review The Shokz Open Pro headset has some excellent features but falls short in key areas for outdoor use. Here's my experience: Pros: Great Indoor Sound: The audio quality indoors is impressive. It’s clear and works well for casual listening or calls in a quiet environment. Comfortable Fit: The design is lightweight and comfortable for extended use. Cons: Mic Performance: The microphone is almost non-existent in functionality. Calls outdoors are frustratingly unreliable, and even indoors, it doesn’t meet expectations. Outdoor Challenges: I bought this primarily for biking, but the sound struggles to compete with environmental noise. Even at max volume, it's hard to hear over traffic or wind, making it less practical for outdoor activities. Low Volume: It lacks the volume boost needed for noisy environments, which is disappointing. Excessive Vibrations: The vibrations can be distracting and don’t add to the listening experience. Conclusion: While it’s a solid choice for indoor use, it’s not well-suited for outdoor activities like biking, where environmental noise drowns out the sound. I wish the volume was louder and vibrations were less pronounced. For outdoor enthusiasts, this headset may not meet your needs.

I have now had 2 pair of the Pro headphones,and still am having issues with disconnecting from my Apple IPhone 14. The second set is a bit better but not much. I have reset multiple times. Shokz was great and replaced the first one and can't find any other reported issues regarding disconnections. I love the bone conduction idea but wish we could get this fixed so I can actually use them all of the time!

Light and comfortable, I sometimes forget I have them on. Decent battery life. Music audio is good, not great, but listening to You Tube or podcasts, it's like the sound is just in my head. The best feature is hearing sound around me, like my wife talking to me!

Light and comfortable. Nothing stuffed in my ear that falls out every time I move my head. Amazing sound quality. All day battery life and super fast charging. Bluetooth linked to my phone & tablet means I can move around the house working with both hands free while listening to music, make and take phone calls, etc. Open ear design means situational awareness at all times. I love everything about these high quality headphones!

Got my Mini OpenRun Pro Open-Ear Endurance Wireless Bluetooth Headphones yesterday. Got it on sale. Love it. Great sound quality! Fits perfectly on the back of my head as I lean back in my recliner and listening to podcasts, YouTube videos, etc., as the wife watches TV a couple feet away. Also, great for phone calls and Zoom calls! I have had an OpenRun model of the same style for almost 2 years, also purchased from Sam's. Been very happy with them, but were a little large for listening while reclining. Had to have them replaced twice. Great customer service from Shokz! (Not sure if it was my fault, but they "died" after charging them by plugging the USB cable into my PC beside my desk.) Shokz replaced them with no issues. I have not seen any instructions saying that charging them via a USB cable plugged into a PC would damage Shokz Headphones, but I won't be doing that again.
