I was dubious about trying open-ear headphones but after trying them I am so happy! For what I use them for, they are great. I use them at my office job and they allow me to listen to what I want to, while being comfortable and allowing me to hear if someone is knocking on my door. The charge lasts all day. They are perfect for what I use them for, but using them in a not quiet environment kind of sucks. I tried to use them at the gym but due to overheard music and general gym noise it is very difficult to hear my music.

After alot of trial and error of trying to find an earbud that fits my tiny ear holes- I was frustrated and about to give up when my neighbor was wearing the Dots- she likes them so hear I am- this is my first week with them on my ears and so far they are working pretty well

I’ve got many of Shokz products and like most of them ( except the bone conduction headphones with extended microphone that broke in both I bought), and I even recently got Openfit2 for it’s long battery life, but once I decided to get couple of new ear piercings, my Openfit2 would most likely be too uncomfortable to wear for a while. So, I thought I’ll have to get back to wearing Bose open ear buds, which I deeply dislike due to horrible call quality, that’s when I’ve seen email about new Shokz arrival and I’m so happy I didn’t skimp out on it. I work in delivering, so I listen to audio Bible and sermons all the time- I hate dead air, so with a quick recharge I can use my Open Dots all day and so far not once my husband complained about not hearing me, which is amazing, because how bad Bose once are. And sound quality is good too, although I didn’t get it for listening to music. I’m still figuring out how to stop and start sound, it is obviously more complicated, than having a button to press, but overall it was very good purchase. Especially the red color, I love it

Sound quality is not too consistent, it doesn’t work well in noisy situations and if I’m on the phone, the other person said the hear all the background noise even when I have the settings to quiet the background noise. I worked out with them, they kept moving around and didnt stay put.

I’ve been using my openrun for a couple of years now and still love them but definitely desired to have the freedom of something more akin to individual ear pieces and these are perfect! The sound quality is fantastic and they’re definitely comfortable. I took one star off because they do start to make my ears tender after a while, like some other reviewers stated but then again so do the openrun - I think I’m just overly sensitive. I can’t use in-ear buds and have tried so many different headphones and listening devices over the years, and these are my favorite by far!

I have 6 or more shokz headphones I have used over the years, open comm is used daily for multiple hours of teams calls. 2 separate pairs of open fits and others. I find I have to replace the headphones just after the warranty ends. I tried these new ones and the fall out during most runs. Very disappointing

My new OpenDots One open-ear earbuds are incredibly comfortable—once I put them in, I completely forget they are there. They are perfect for use on trails, as they allow me to remain aware of environmental sounds. The sound quality is superb, and I appreciate using the app to adjust the settings to my liking.

Before settling with these, I tried a couple different earbuds from different brands but these ones have been the best for me! At first I thought I wanted noise cancelling but I was surprised to find that I really enjoy being able to hear my surroundings while listening to my music. The best thing for me is that there is no sound leakage! I have the headphone safety feature turned on and at max volume, no one can hear what I am listening to. I also love the look of them. They are très chic!

First and foremost I love the way they sound and the fact the sound is customizable. They're very comfortable on the ears. The batteries hold their charger for a long time. The Bluetooth range is adequate. They're great for walking. I can't speak on running or other exercising. I've had these for a few months and use them for extended periods of time daily and haven't noticed any degradation so far. The bottom line is if you're looking for the best sound in ear buds you won't be disappointed. You won't want to wear any others (exercising?). If they fit your budget get them.

I have Eustachian tube dysfunction in my right ear and most headphones that go into the ear canal cause too much pressure and will block out the sound. When I was searching for a solution I found Shokz. I’m so glad I bought them! I have never had a more comfortable headphone in my life. I love that I don’t have to worry about them falling off and they’re so comfy I forget they’re on. The sound quality is great. I’m so thankful to have found something to actually hear my music without hurting my ears!
