I was so hopeful about these. I have classic shokz which I love but I wanted something that doesn’t wrap around the back of my head. I tried OpenFit but I don’t love the way they sit right in front of my ear canal. I thought these were going to be perfect, but the ball that sits inside your ear is just too big for my ears and my ear canal is still blocked no matter how I adjust them. I’m bummed.

Behind the head version: was good and lasted awhile but always hated how that band stuck out and couldn’t use them with a winter hat or when lying down. OpenFit: Constantly had problems getting them in the case exactly perfect so they would charge. Then eventually had problems maintaining a charge. They would say 100% and then 1 would decide not to work. Cannot have that during a long run. OpenDots One: The fit is more solid but the touch sensors are more sensitive to wearing a hoodie or having something covering your ears. Also, as someone who’s hard of hearing (moderate hearing loss) I do find them more challenging to hear in. I do like the option to magnet charge. I use headphones every single day to walk, run and work in. They get a lot of daily long term use.

These have great sound, better than I expected. They are supper comfortable to wear all day, I have even forgotten i had them on and thought the sound was coming from the ipad device watching a videocast. After a week of having them though I really wish they had physical buttons as 60% of the time they do not respond to touch.

I purchased these because the band on the bone conduction headphone gets caught in my hair. I love how light these are, however, as I talk on the phone and move around, they jiggle out of position and constantly have to be readjusted. I only use them when walking, I really can’t imagine you could run with them. Sound quality is great, but I must say that I like the bone conduction version better because I can still hear vehicles coming, but cannot with these.

I’ve been using the Shokz OpenDots for a while now and I’m really impressed! The open-ear design is super comfortable—you can still hear what’s going on around you while enjoying your music or calls. The sound quality is surprisingly clear and balanced for open-ear earbuds, and they stay securely in place even when I’m moving around or working out. I also love that they’re lightweight and breathable, so I can wear them for long periods without any discomfort. The battery life is great too—it easily lasts through a full day of use. Plus, the charging case is compact and easy to carry. If you want earbuds that keep you aware of your surroundings but still deliver great sound, the Shokz OpenDots are definitely worth it.

I absolutely love these headphones! But I have the same issue with these that I had with the last pair of shocks I bought. They randomly connect to my cell phone, even when in the charging case. I had them in my backpack overnight near my phone, so they were connected the whole light unbeknownst to me. When I arrived to the gym the next morning, they were completely dead, as were my previous pair. This is quite possibly the most frustrating part of owning this brand of headphone. If they could fix this one hiccup they would be the perfect pair of headphones. Other than this, they fit great, they sound and they are incredibly convenient. Love them.

I’ve been through so many earpieces over the years and could never find the right pair that fit comfortably. I eventually gave up and went without any for years. But holding my phone all the time got old fast — until these beauties came along! I actually spotted them on my beautician and decided to give them a try, and let me tell you — they are the BEST THING EVER! The fit is amazing and so comfortable that I honestly forget I’m even wearing them. They stay in place perfectly, and I can even wear my glasses with no issue. I’m thrilled to finally have a pair of earbuds that get me! I even wore them in the shower (under my shower cap, of course) — YUP! 😄 If you’re still searching for that perfect pair, do yourself a favor and grab these. Totally worth the price!

I've had these for a couple of weeks now and use them several times throughout the week (mainly while riding my mountain bike). The sound is superior compared to the open run type (which I still use sometimes). Here's what I don't like. . . skipping tracks or advancing through commercials on my podcasts is not great (there isn't a physical button to push rather a touch point / area) and you have to get the cadence just right; two taps will pause / resume and three taps will advance / skip. In the colder months (like now) I wear gloves and the volume control does not work with gloves at all. Here's what I do love. . . the sound once again is amazing, they're very lightweight and comfortable on the ear and they don't interfere with eye-ware or my helmet.

I love these! I use these every day at work, home and at the rock gym. I love that you can listen to music and still hear when people talk to you. I also love that I don't feel them on my ears. I can wear them all day and my ears don't hurt. I also like that you can use one bud at a time, not all ear buds let you do that. The only problem I have is that it can be difficult to pause sometimes

They’re decent, not everything I had hoped for. I was a Beats girl and when mine messed up right before my half marathon race, I decided to give these a try. Fit is good, sound is good but I don’t like that I cannot change my song directly on the headphones. It’s a hassle to have to do it on my watch or phone when I’m running.
