SHOKZ OpenRun Bone Conduction Headphones Open-Ear Bluetooth Wireless Sport Headphones for Running Workout Sweat Resistant Long 8H Playtime

Open ear design is great for working out--no more awkward squelching when I sweat like in-ear earbuds produce, and I can keep the volume low if I'm outdoors and need to remain aware of my surroundings. Sweatproof design is far better than most "sweatproof" headphones I've used in the past, which eventually end up shocking me--these haven't show any sign of problems after years of heavy use. Very comfortable to wear, decent battery life (seems to be 4-8 h of use per charge), good sound quality for workout music and podcasts. Biggest complaint is that the battery doesn't have much between "medium" and dead--I've gotten in the habit of charging at the next opportunity whenever it says "medium" on turn on. Read more

These headphones are absolutely amazing! The bone conduction technology is a game-changer—clear sound while keeping your ears open to the world around you. Perfect for running, biking, or just walking the dog. They’re lightweight, comfortable for hours, and the battery life easily lasts through long workouts. Pairing was quick and simple, and the fit is secure without feeling tight. If you want great audio and safety while staying active, these are worth every penny. Five stars all the way! Read more

This is the second unit I have purchased and this one was a gift. Great product, clear, wears well, and has good battery life. I like this product Read more

Quick summary: - Comfortable to wear all day. - Feasible to wear all day in all situations since it does not block your hearing and is waterproofed. - Has no problem staying in position in nearly all situations. - Battery lasts all day (I regularly end the day around ~80% battery left). - Bluetooth multipoint is supported. Check the Shokz website for a video showing how to enable it. You must hold the on and multifunction button at the same time to enable multipoint. - Use their sizing guide video to find the correct size before purchase. I bought the normal size, then had to buy the mini instead. If you need the mini but buy the normal size then it will push on the back of your ears uncomfortably. - Standard USB-C charging means one fewer charger. I usually charge it in the morning while starting my day. - Quick charging. - Multifunction button is a physical button, so it's hard to activate it by accident. - Sound is reasonable for listening to music and making calls. Microphone is reasonable. Look into how bone conduction sounds to get an idea of what to expect. I'm comfortable using these for music, games, and calls unless I'm wanting exquisite audio quality. My story: I purchased these because the idea of having a pair of headphones I could wear all day was appealing to me. I am the kind of person that prefers to never play videos etc. out loud, which usually results in me never seeing any content with sound. Wearing other earbuds or headphones all day isn't feasible because other headphones block out surrounding sounds and fall out/off easily. Unfortunately, I'm also the kind of person who is significantly motivated by music. What a bad combination! With these I'm able to put them on in the morning and only take them off at night. Bluetooth multipoint is a nice bonus, as it allows me to seamlessly switch between my phone and my computer. Generally, these sound as if a speaker in the room is playing whatever you're listening to. Just like a real speaker in the room, you can turn it up to drown out surrounding sound or turn it down so surrounding sound takes over. I can comfortably play music during a conversation and still hear the conversation. I can also comfortably play music while shopping or while driving and still be able to hear my surroundings i.e. it's no different from a speaker in the store or car playing music. I have used these for personal and work calls and they function well for that purpose. I have had no complaints about mic quality. With long hair, people often don't realize I'm even wearing these unless my hair is up. I'm able to wear these fine with both glasses and a mask. These usually comfortably rest slightly above the ear outside of my glasses. This position reduces the strain on my ears. All in all, if you need an all-day wear pair of headphones for general listening and calls, these are an excellent choice. Read more

Great headset! I loved having it for the time I did. I was able to listen to audio books while doing chores and caring for the family. Even after a year and a half, the battery would last a day and a half. I would have a book playing pretty much all day long. I loved the shorter/mini, as it was snug against my head. Never had an issue with connecting to the phone. Other than the issue stated below, sometimes the charger wouldn’t charge, but I just had to disconnect and reconnect quickly and it would go. Charging only took about an hour or so from dead to fully charged, which was amazing! Super easy to use, comfortable to wear, and left my ears still open to hear things. Definitely helped with my type of ADHD and needing constant audio input that wasn’t part of daily life. Constant daily use for over a year and a half, I would say it is definitely worth the money! Only reason I left out the final star, is because after a year and a half of using them daily, they vibrated loose the crystals in my ears and cause a severe case of BPPV (benign vertigo). Anyone prone to those types of vertigo or anything else involving balance and such, use caution. That is the only complaint I have. Otherwise, it had been the best headset I have ever used. Was sad to have to get different ones. Read more

My husband has had a pair of these for 8 years and bought these for me to use. Love the clarity of the sound and that my ears are still open to hear what's going on around me. They are comfortable to wear and I love listening to music with them. Highly recommend! Read more

I was slightly hesitant about getting these, as they weren't normal headphones, but I wanted to be able to hear my kid while listening to music, as well as the sounds from my work PC. These work like a dream. I can raise the volume as needed, without sacrificing hearing what's going on around me. It was easy to connect to my phone (that's what I use for my music), and additionally people have told me that I sound great on phone calls with the headset. I haven't tried these while working out yet, but I got these for my dad, and he uses it religiously to work out and doesn't have a problem. Would highly recommend! Read more
