I've had two pairs of the bone conduction headphones before and loved them but I needed something that did not have anything around the head while at work. These fit the bill wonderfully. They've got great sound, are very comfy, have a good range away from your device and hold a charge beautifully. Plus the fact that you can pair these to two devices simultaneously? I adore that. It means that I can listen to a book on my kindle and also be able to answer a call. I'm sold.

4 stars since it is frustrating that they automatically join two of my open devices when I open the charger when in fact I am not necessarily going to use them right away. The only option is to either disconnect and find the devices or unpair every time which I don't want to do - otherwise this is my 4th or 5th pair of shokz so clearly I am a big fan

I have small ears, and while these do fit, I did have to mess with the part that wraps with your ear a bit in order to have it perfectly fit into my ears. The sound is great, however. I accidentally left them out of their case for three days and they still have battery as I write this review. No joke. My phone kept connecting to something while I was walking around the house and then I realized it was the shokz that I had sitting on the bathroom counter. The app is actually pretty awesome, you can customize whether you want high base, high trouble, balanced, whatever. You can also customize what the tap options do I switch between these and my AirPods the functions are very similar, but you'll just have to get used to using the double click function a different way from AirPods. I give them an 8 out of 10. The only thing I wish different is the sizing for people like me with tiny ears.

Out of the box, the fit was too loose over my ears. But once I learned that I could bend the wire inside to tighten the fit to my liking, they stopped rotating on my ear and stay still. Initially, the sound was tinny. I was hyperaware of the speakers being just outside of my ear and would not have considered them surround sound. In that sense, the bone induction headphones are more immersive and other speakers are higher quality than these. But I am not an audiophile. In fact, I barely listen to audiobooks and music at all. For those times I do listen to something, it is meant as a background sound while doing something else. These are great for that. I love the situational awareness these provide. And for my lifestyle, I prefer two seperable earbuds over one with a connecting bar in the back. Comfort is mostly good. My biggest complaint is the length of the speaker rectangle. My ears are small, and the end of the rectangle presses against the top of the floating-triangle-peninsula-flap part of my ear (excuse the nontechnical name). Maybe the other style of OpenFit are better for that? Otherwise, I wear glasses and they are a non-issue with those, and the material is silky soft. Controls are rudimentary and not to my liking, but they do the minimum they need to. No wireless charging, and I constantly switch which device I pair them to, which means *back in the case, long press both touchpads til the case LED blinks, then I can put them back on. * Fact check this, but I think the speaker for calls is only in the left earbud. 😬 And I thiiiink that if you swap from one to the other and put one back in the case, the call ends. Again, fact check me. All in all, nothing on the market now will do just what these will do, and so I will hold onto them and enjoy them. But I have high hopes that Shockz can flush out these details in future iterations (and let me beta test them?). They are a good quality company. My husband has the OpenRun and wears them for exercise, travel, and sometimes around the house.

They work great! Sometimes I wish they had a little more volume, but other than that, they are comfortable and easy to use. I never even looked at directions, and right out of the box I figured out how to touch the sides for volume or double tap to pause. They last a long time on a charge.

I've been using the Shocks Open Air Headphones for a few weeks now, and while it took some time to get used to them, I'm really pleased with the results. Initially, they hurt my ears a bit, likely because I wear glasses, but now they've adjusted just fine. I love that I can hear my surroundings, and unlike bone conduction headphones, they don't cause itching in my ears. The sound quality is awesome. My only minor complaint is the battery life – they don't last as long as my previous bone conduction headset. However, the case doubles as a charger and can power them up in 10-15 minutes, which is perfect since I use them for over 10 hours a day.

So I am a customer since the aeropex by aftershocks days and I absolutely love the original style. I thought I'd give these new ones a try when it came time to replace an older pair. After a couple months, I am pretty happy with them, sometimes I do wish I had stuck with the original 1 piece design but these are still 10x better than something you have to jam up inside your earhole . Sound is great, they stay on, the multipoint pairing is awesome and they intuitively jump back and forth between my tablet and phone with no need to sync up they do it automatically. After a few hours of wear, your ears can become slightly sensitive as they gently squeeze the ear to stay in place. All in all they're solid, just depends on preference but I will never jam a headphone in my ear again while these are around.

Received these for Fathers' Day, but I'm honestly disappointed. Instead of transmitting sound via bone-conduction as the numerous other Shokz we've had in the past, these simply have tiny speakers and are “open” to allow ambient sound to also be heard passively. The tiny speakers sound fantastic, mind you. Even if you're looking for something along these lines, I'm sorry to tell you that, at least for me, these will not stay on my ears. Simply leaning forward, laying down, or moderately vigorous activity will allow gravity to snatch these away from your head. I received these as a gift, and I'm really grateful. My kids and wife however were not aware that these weren't bone conducting, nor that they would have a desire to wander. If I could return them, I would.

Wanted to give these a try after having used open run for almost 7 years. If you want to use multi pair you need the app. I didn't even know there was an app. It easily walked me through how to do it. They're super lightweight, enough that I was a little paranoid about them falling out, but they're actually very secure. I dislike is that they need to sit inside your ear, which means I can't use at work because I use a stethoscope, and I can't use with earplugs at the gym. So for work and gym, I need to continue using my open run set. That's my only reason for knocking off the star…because it works how it is intended to but not as well as the open run. Had I never used open run these would be a 5 star for sure.

The sound and comfort are great on my end. I have a lot of people telling me that it's hard to hear me on phone calls, so I assume that the microphone could use an upgrade. Also, I find it very difficult to answer a call using the headphones. Adding physical control buttons including strictly volume controls would make these a 5 star product.
