I wore these at work for less than 6 months and the right one started crackling. it was not used at high volume it had not been dropped or submerged in water or anything. I returned these to Sam's.

I got these because they're water resistant or proof or whatever. but when my hair is wet it engages the buttons and turns stuff up or down or pauses or plays whatever I'm listening to. I would give these 5 stars except this very annoying aspect. they sound good, my ears don't tire of wearing them, people can hear me great when I take a call with them.

I wanted to love these but I don't! The sound quality is good and I like that they sit around my ear, but the fit is loose and they fall off my ear easily. There is no way to adjust the fit and I have smaller ears. The tap does not always respond and you have to hit the earbuds in just the right place for them to respond which is frustrating when I trying to answer a call, turn up/down the volume or skip a song. Overall, they do their job but I would not purchase again without smaller ear hooks and a better response to “tapping. ” I should have gotten the OpenRuns, which I had previously and loved.

This is the second pair of OpenFit Air Shokz that I've purchased. I got this replacement because my first pair were truly life-changing. Living in a house with two teenagers and a husband who loves his entertainment, I can be around them but listening to my own favorite podcasts, audiobooks, and music. I appreciate this design that doesn't make my ears hot and itchy like traditional earbuds. I'm a faithful Shokz customer now.

I was SO excited for these, and I went on my first run and between having smaller ears and wearing glasses, these wouldn't settle into place. And then every time I would adjust them, I would accidentally be pausing my music. I gave them two tries and had zero luck.

I was hoping these would be as great as my OPEN RUN, they are not. I cannot answer the phone with them, as I can with my OPEN RUN, a great disappointment. The tap/ double tap is not working. Volume is easy to adjust. So I must still fumble with the phone to accept the call. Listening to an audio book is nice, sound quality is wonderful. I will continue to use my OPEN RUN and these will look nice on a shelf.

I'm coming from 2 back to back pairs of bose open ear buds that both failed in less than their 1 year warranty. I've never used shokz and the differences between the different levels didn't mean anything to me so I opted for the cheapest type first. I've been using them for about a week and so far i really like them. Sound quality is good, battery lasts quite a while, no pain around my ears. They stay in and feel secure while I'm running. So far I'm really happy with them! Hoping they last longer than my bose but they also have a longer warranty and I appreciate the different price points.

A lot of folks in the running group swear by these- but they must not sweat. By mile 6 these short out, stop working, advance on their own. Really frustrating and disappointing. If you don't sweat or you're not going far- these may work well for you.

I wasn't sure about these at first as someone who likes their music loud but these are amazing. I decided to order them because I have a lot of ear piercings that can make AirPods uncomfortable and fall out when I'm running. I swear there were times when I could not even feel these like I was literally checking to make sure they were still on my ears cause I legit could not tell. They were with me when I ran a 10 miler race the other day and were a perfect companion.

Overall, I give these high marks. The sound is far better than I expected, and they really do help to hear what is going on around you. I cycle regularly and was always a little concerned I couldn't hear traffic or other riders with regular in-ear ear buds. The Shokz have solved that problem. There are some weaknesses. The touch controls aren't very usable. There are touch points for functions, but no tactile way to locate them with your finger. You sort of have to just feel around until the function you want happens. It's not easy while riding 20-25mph. Another big issue I found was when they get sweaty, the seller can activate the functions. On a couple of occasions, the “volume up” function got “stuck” with warm sweat and it kept going to full volume. I could turn it down with the other side, but it would just go back up. Other that a couple shortcomings, they are good earbuds. I can listen to music at work and still hear when people speak to me. Overall, very satisfied.
