I had just returned a pair of open fit SE's because they didn't sound great at all so I was hesitant to take a chance on these. I'm so glad I did. The fit is perfect and super comfortable. The sound quality for an open ear headphone was much better than I had anticipated. Not counting my return this would be my second pair.

The sound is okay. I appreciate the comfort and lack of stuff in my ear canal. The start/stop controls are odd - laggy to respond - one side never seems to recognize double tap, even though i have them set to the same thing. The volume is kind of low.

The sound and quality are fantastic! However, take into consideration any ear piercings/jewelry that may share space with your Shokz. Other than that one very minor annoyance, these are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

They’ve been in use since I’ve received them. Really like they have no left/right, just grab and go. Don’t even notice they are in. Easy to put on and they stay put. Sound quality is excellent.

Overall good sound quality. Like using them. Absolutely Haate the chime for low battery and voice-to-text activation. Even if overall volume is turned down low. The chime will be so loud it leaves my ears ringing and hurting

I love, love, love these. I do wish they made it easier to switch from already paired devices. I have to connect them manually when I switch from my phone to my laptop. Other than that, the sound is good, the microphone is good, and everything else is good!

My ear canals are too small, where most earbuds are painful. These are mostly comfortable, though sometimes I feel that they are heavy. The sound is pretty good, though if in a noisy gym, I cannot always hear them as well as an in-ear earbud. Sometimes the bluetooth connection is wonky. I can run and exercise in these without any issues.

I really like not having the bar across the back of my neck like with my other shokz, but I do have a hard time starting and stopping the music and increasing and decreasing the volume. Sometimes I tap twice and nothing happens. Sometimes both of my fingers are on either side of the battery pack to adjust the volume but nothing happens. Overall I am very pleased. Still trying to figures some things out, though.

I wanted to love these soooo badly. Concept is cool. A few things wrong with them as a female with long hair that wears glasses. 1) my eyeglass stems are in the way of these fitting properly. So if you wear glasses, these aren’t a good move to make. 2) they constantly (and way to easily) fall off when you’re trying to adjust your hair out away from your ear; or, if you happen to be adjusting your hair on a long call, or that annoying piece of hair blows in your way and you try to nudge it back. One little whisper of a graze near your ear and these things come right off. From a tech standpoint — operationally — very frustrating. I had these in my case, in another room. I picked up my phone to listen to watch a short video and I had zero audio. My earbuds were still connected. As well, often when I pick these up to put on to prepare to make a phone call, or get ready for a phone meeting, my music automatically blasts in my ear. Last, unlike the “other” ear buds I used to have that actually would disconnect from a call when I placed them down, they would actually disconnect as I needed them too. Not these. Put them on your desk, and they still stay connected. Not convenient if you work from home and are walking around using them but then set them on a table, counter, or wherever. If you go into another room and make a manual non-earbud call, you have to run to the other room because you realize the audio is at your buds.

They fit very well and are reasonably secure for that style of earbud. The sound quality is not great though. There are very frequent glitches and interruptions, especially outdoors. Honestly I had better sound quality with the equivalent soundcore product, that one I had to return though because the fit was bad. You can't have everything I suppose. I did expect more though from such an expensive pair.
