SHOKZ Openrun Pro 2 Mini Bone Conduction Sport Headphones, Open Ear Wireless Earphones With Bluetooth 5.3, Noise Cancelling Mics, IP55 Waterproof, 12H Playtime For Running, USB-C Quick Charge (Orange)

I’m extremely happy with the SHOKZ OpenRun Pro 2 bone conduction headphones. The sound quality is impressive for open-ear headphones, and they are very comfortable even during long runs and workouts. Bluetooth 5.3 connects quickly and stays stable, and the noise-cancelling microphones work well for calls. The open-ear design is perfect for outdoor activities, allowing me to stay aware of my surroundings. Battery life easily lasts the full 12 hours as advertised, and the USB-C quick charge is very convenient. The IP55 waterproof rating gives great confidence for sweat and light rain. The seller is trustworthy, the product was well-packed, and delivery was on time. Overall, an excellent purchase and great value for money. Highly recommended! 👍

I got this item from Dubai and then ordered one for a relative in india when price dropped to 14K. Since it's not over-the-ear, noise cancellation is limited but still apt. Pros: 1. Good sound for a bone conduction set 2. Best for adults and people with earwax problem, no ear ache as well 3. Can be worn under helmet without traffic risks unlike ear/headphones 4. Great for workout and running, doesn't dislocate 5. Bass is good. 19-20 difference from 8000 worth of sony headphones 6. Easy connectivity 7. Firmware updates via app 8. Charges 70%+ in 15-20mins 9. Good for meetings, gaming and movies Cons: 1. Battery lasts for 12-13hrs only 2. No built-in Gemini support and gestures like some 10K+ headphones

I had my eyes on the shockz bone conducting headset for a while, so when I saw it on discount I purchased it, my first sentiment is a little disappointing, here's what I liked and what I did not - Likes - 1. Comfort - as this is neither in ear nor over ear it is actually quite comfortable and can be worn for hours easily without problems. 2. Awareness - as this doesn't cover your ears, it let's you hear sounds from outside, so it is quite good for outdoor activities like running (as the name suggests) or even to listen to music while being aware of what is happening around you (I initially used to do this by plugging in only 1 ear with my in-ear headsets, but this seems to be better in this regards) 3. Sound quality - I quite liked the audio quality on this headset, pretty crisp notes, not too high on base. To be honest though, don't expect mind blowing audiophile level audio from this headset. Other headsets in the same range can usually provide much better audio immersion by blocking external noise and creating a better experience. Within the given circumstances this headset does a surprisingly good job in producing great sound! Dislikes - 1. Noise cancellation - the headset claims noise cancellation which I did not experience, pretty poor cancellation. I often take calls while walking outdoors, but the poor cancellation here means that I cannot really use this headset for calls when outdoors or in noisy environments. A very disappointing miss for me given the superior alternatives in the price range with in-ear or over-ear 2. Practicality - there's a pretty good case provided with this headset, but space consuming, given the nature of the firm band with the headset storing and using the headset isn't the most convinient. I would've liked a more flexible band which I could fold and store easily or even a detachable band which would've made this very practical. 3. On/Off - even basic headsets today disconnect when the magnetic tips are brought together, but with this it doesn't switch off untill I power it off through the button. This is an irritating problem for me becase I am used to removing the headset and it disconnecting automatically and now I forget that it's not disconnected and end up taking calls that automatically go to the headset without realising 4. Battery life - very avg battery life, particularly since I can't auto disconnect the headset and since it's made to keep on the head for long durations I feel battery consumption is pretty fast, I had to recharge my new headset within 2 days which isn't great as I would potentially get a lot more out of other headsets in the same range All in all, a fantastic headset for limited use cases, if you want to use this predominantly for running or working out and want comfort as well as awareness you won't get anything better than this! But if you plan on using it for more that that as well, to take calls for instance or are an audiophile you might be disappointed. Hope this helps!

Expensive, even at discounted prices, but very worth it. I was initially skeptical about their performance and online reviews, but I bought them in the interest of road safety while cycling. Their performance has far exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is excellent and music is perfectly audible at medium volume in all but the loudest traffic situation. Wind, even when riding at 35kmph did not affect sound quality. With the ear canals left open, situational awareness is greatly enhanced than with in-ear phones. There is no sound leakage, except at the highest volume (which is actually too loud to be practically usable). Wearing them is very comfortable and within 10-15min I no longer noticed them. They fit without an issue while wearing my cycling goggles and helmet. I chose the standard size after visiting the website and reading the sizing guide. The build quality is excellent and connecting them to my iPhone 13 via Bluetooth and the Shokz app took just a few seconds and the firmware was updated immediately. I have not tried multi-device connection. The volume adjustment and multi-function buttons are easily accessible. Not tried the mic for calls. Primarily using this to listen to music while out riding. Really cool colour (but I wish they'd offered more colour options). The inclusion of numerous reflective stickers with the device is a pleasant, useful and unexpected bonus. Very happy with the product.

This is my first ever Bone Conduction headphones I have used or purchase. Having gone through multiple reviews, finally decided to purchase these. As all reviewers have emphasized do not have expectations for it to perform like a normal Headphone/Earphone. With that in mind ordered Openrun Pro 2 after eliminating all the others. On opening the box, it comes with a nice case, the headphones, USB cable (A to C), warranty card with serial and reflective stickers After downloading the app, I pared it with my phone and the registration was done on the fly along with a firmware upgrade. App allows you to multi-pair and adjust EQ to your liking. The build quality is very good and robust. The band sits comfortably on both ear and found no issues with it. I can probably wear this much longer than any headphones/earphones I have owned till date. Coming to the audio, I started with 50% volume on standard EQ, I was pleasantly surprised to hear the audio almost similar to having a headphone/earphone on. Only thing was the bass wont be able to compare to standard ear/headphones, but it was not such that you could not appreciate the bass. In fact it sounds much much better than any mobile phone speakers and better than most portable bluetooth speakers, regarding bass (only way to give an easy comparative description) Picking and answering calls is easy and the mic noise cancellation is awesome, such that the person on the other side will not realize you are on a wireless. Going on a walk or jog the headphones perform 100% to what they are specified for. Have not given a full run for its battery life but will update on it soon. Conclusion: Very happy and satisfied with the purchase abet the price kinds pinches on the pockets. At the time I bought this the similar bone conducting Bose was selling lower than this by 1k+ Would definitely to people who completely understand what they are signing up for.

Prior to purchasing this product, I conducted extensive research to address my initial concerns. One of my primary concerns was whether I could make VoIP and cellular calls with the required clarity. The answer to this question is affirmative. The voice over SHOKZ headsets provide a loud and clear signal to the receiver, ensuring optimal communication even during commuting in a car. If your primary use case involves listening to podcasts, music (without unnecessary filler), and making calls, this product is an excellent choice. The bone, air conduction technology employed in this product offers a natural and immersive listening experience, making it an ideal option for both music and calls. Additionally, the product boasts premium build quality, extremely lightweight design, and a comfortable fit. Battery lasts for 2 days.

First impression, excellent design, easy to use and easy to configure. Secondly this can connect maximum 2 devices at a time. So my phone is connected ( that's needed for registering and configure ) and my laptop. Charging speed is excellent. Call quality - very good. I tested multiple way like facing a fan and talking, while on the other end they don't hear the air /wind sound. So call clarity is very good. Only thing I noticed, when someone send voice message with low note it is difficult to hear. May be because I use iPhone and that cause the problem ? I don't know. I used normal size band, so feel comfortable. But I guess most people do not need that, the small size fits perfectly. Overall good value for money. Giving the functionality as expected. I had problem with in-ear and over-ear headphones. I feel something is crawling in ear at night. Now that issue is disappeared after using this. So, feels better for the ear, if you are using headphones regularly. Another small problem I noticed, in Windows, auto-reconnect sometimes is bit laggy. We have to manually connect.

Dual tech is good base is good u have to get used to it on high volume..I want pure bone conduction so I will be ordering openrun pro
