- OpenRun Pro 2 Bone Conduction Bluetooth Sport Headphones, Black

I work outdoors and can't use traditional earbuds or headphones because they block other sounds such as cars etc. These make it really easy to hear what's going on around you. More than once I have heard a car or other threat approaching while wearing these and been able to react sooner. They're super comfortable and fit great, I can wear them for 8+hr/day and still feel good. Sound quality is awesome. Battery lasts probably about 9 hours if you have the volume up, I just charge them on lunch break, they charge super fast. My only nitpick is the control button is a little finicky and sometimes it reads a double tap as a single, not the end of the world.

These are my go-to headphones while biking and running. They fit well and are comfortable on my head. I bought the regular size ones, and on my medium size head, I probably would have been better with the smaller version, but that doesn’t detract from them at all. The speakers work well and I can hear my music at pretty fast speeds coming down on my bike. The controls are a little small when trying to operate with full finger gloves on. Probably the most important aspect of the headphones is the battery. I can get 10 solid hours with them, which allows me to use the, on my 7-10 hour gravel races.

Do I like these headphones: Yes! I have used insertable earpieces my entire life, and love the sound of them, deep base, and pleasant highs. I have been reticent to try bone conduction headphones as I worried about sound quality... However with the insertable headsets, while riding my bike, I can not hear vehicles or people, even when the insertable is in transparent mode. These headsets have solved all issues! They sound nice-- deep base, and a really bright high end, and I can now hear the vehicle that is trying to run me down while on my bike. Another difference between the Shokz, and the "other" high end headsets is the comfort level... After an hour or so of the insertable headphones, my ears start to hurt... With the Shokz headphones, I actually forget they are on, no matter how long I wear them. Controls: The most needed controls are right on the side of the headsets, volume, phone pickup, power, etc. Shokz choose to use a soft rubber covering over the controls as well, this makes them non slick so when you touch them, your finger stays were you put it. The volume up, volume down, and power controls have engraved markings on them so my finger can tell what control I am touching without removing the headset. They connected right up to my iPhone via bluetooth and have stayed connected. No disconnects... They reconnect instantly as well... I just turn them on, put them on, and start riding my bike. I can also pick up, hang up, and move forward in my playlist all from teh headsets, all with no setup done on my iPhone. Microphone: I have asked people how my audio sounds while riding the bike, and am told it sounds great... Battery: I have yet to run these dead... I take them to work, and use them all day... I ride my bike for several hours, never a dead or even a low battery indication in either situation, so I can't say how long they last... They charge up in an hour or so, again, I have never been able to run them down, so I can't say how long it would take from a dead battery to full charge. This is however how batteries like to be treated for max life, never running then down totally. Storage: I was unaware they came with a really nice case! The case is a bit on the largish side, but it will protect them. It has a good feel to it, and seems well built. Connectivity: I have yet to connect them to a second audio source like my TV, but the instructions say they will do this. The App: The app allows me to select various modes, only bone conduction, bone conduction and speaker, an EQ setup, and a few other things I don't use. I have set the EQ up, and it works, and I run the headsets with both speaker, and bone conduction on. The bass suffers slightly if you turn off the speakers, but is still good. Recommendation: Yes, get these... I wish I had done so prior to spending a bunch more money on insertable headsets. EDIT: After several months of use, I still like the headphones, and now my wife wants a pair. I just bought them for her...

I am an avid runner, and have typically used various iterations of Apple AirPods when doing so. I don’t have many complaints about them, as the sound quality and noise cancellation are both excellent, but I was getting a bit of ear fatigue after a while, and on these humid Southern days, things get a bit slippy after a few miles, to the point where I was having to constantly jam them back into my ears. I am a glasses wearer, and was somewhat unsure if the Shokz would work, but decided to give them a try. I was very pleasantly surprised by them. They work just fine with my glasses, especially if I put the headphones on first and then slide the glasses over my ears. The sound quality is not quite in par with the AirPods, but it’s actually shockingly good, and when you are laboring up a hill, sound quality isn’t exactly a priority. Bass response is the most noticeable difference from the AirPods. They are also super light, and I kind of forget they are there at all. The things I really love about them are that they stay in place and don’t move a bit, and I can listen to music or podcasts but still have situational awareness. I never listened to music on my trail runs for exactly that reason, and I probably still won’t, but a podcast is a perfect compromise that allows me to have some entertainment while still being able to hear if there is a bike coming up behind me. Battery life seems quite good, and I like the case as well. As a side note, I have a pretty dang big head, at least going by hat size, but the mini actually provided a better fit for me. If you are on the fence about these I can say they are worth the investment. I’ll be using mine as my primary listening device for running from now on.

Really love this product. As someone who obsesses over all the details of headphones and use them a lot every day, I think these headphones knock it out of the park on most metrics. Earbuds don't work for me because they always fall out of my ears. Most other sports headphones are too big and bulky and the quality is low. Compared to earbuds, Shokz are much faster to put on securely and power up. Sound is great. Doesn't get as loud as other products, but that isn't an issue for me even when I'm wearing them while riding my bike in the wind. But only 4 stars due to a couple firmware issues. The issues: * When connected to two devices (e.g. iPhone and iPad), hitting the play button always defaults to starting the first device connected; so if iPhone was your first device connected and you are wandering around listening to your iPad hit pause and then play again, it will start playing whatever was last playing on your iPhone; it should obviously default to playing whichever device was last being played (Please fix your firmware guys :-) * I'm disappointed in the power management policy; there is no auto power-down after inactivity so you always have to remember to power off when you're done; instead they should auto power down after 5 or 10 minutes of inactivity

Fantastic. The sound is great and yet I can still hear what is going on around me. They are very light-weight, very comfortable to wear and easy to connect via Bluetooth. I wish I had bought them sooner.

The SHOKZ OpenRun Pro 2 headphones are worth the price. I tried a few cheap pairs first To see if I liked the bone conduction headphones. I also have something to compare them against. The sound is excellent. Music sounds very good And the volume is adequate for audio books. The one-piece design prevents drops, and they stay comfortable all day, even in rain. The orange color is easy to find. The buttons work accurately And are easy to press by feel. The phone call quality is adequate compared to other choices. The microphone is maybe not the greatest, but you can take phone calls while wearing these. One of the most important things these create for me is that, because my ears are always open, I can hear what's going on. It also means that I can keep them on while running errands, and I can increase my audiobook time. I just regularly pause and resume depending on what I'm trying to do. I'm kind of a maniac about audiobooks. I listen to over a hundred of them every year, and this gives me a few extra hours of listening time during the week, so it's a pretty good investment. The battery lasts all day, and a voice prompt states the power level in English upon startup. I've used them for eight hours at a time and have never gotten below a medium. The charging port is solid with a clear indicator LED. While the connection does not hop devices Pairing is stable and straightforward. A small downside is that on Apple you have to turn the volume up fairly loud to get them to work properly, so you will get warnings that your headphones are too loud.

I had the older version of the open run headphones and these do sound better than the old ones but I wouldn't say they sound almost double the price better. One thing that's a little disappointing about them is the volume level. I wish they got just a little louder at max volume. Having said that for what they are made to do there's nothing better out there. I must have a weird ear shape because I have trouble getting anything that goes inside the ear canal to stay put especially if I'm exercising and get sweaty so these are the only choice. I also love that I can just hang them around my neck when I'm not using them keep my ears from get tired/fatigued. You can be very active with them just sitting on your neck and they won't fall off which is really nice. I think these have a better battery life than the old ones I had too which was another gripe that I had with the old ones. They just didn't have a long enough play time for me but these should be better based on the specs. We'll see!

I’ve been using it for one year now, honestly, I got addicted to it. People forgot how I used to look without it. Just keep in mind it’s an open ear concept, so don’t expect a crazy bass that blows your head. It’s amazing for the idea, a headphone that will make you smart, being on your phone watching reels but still listening to the gossips your friends are talking, is a skill

Not for the audiophiles, but for people, who want sound on. the move (cyclists in my case) and want to hear the surrounding traffic, there is not better option. Would definitely buy again.

Son mis primeros audífonos de conduccion osea y me dejan muy buenas sensaciones. Si los comparas con unos in-ear, es cierto que les falta un poco de detalle y volumen, pero considerando que su propósito principal es no aislarte del entorno, cumplen su función de maravilla y mejor de lo que esperaba. Son súper cómodos; después de un rato de uso, casi olvidas que los traes puestos. El ajuste es perfecto: los utilizo para ir al gimnasio, correr y andar en bici con casco, y en ningún momento he sentido que se vayan a caer. Además, la duración de la batería es excelente y el tiempo de recarga es muy rápido (se cargan mediante el cable USB-C que viene incluido)

• Comfort and fit — lightweight, flexible headband that stays put through runs and rides without any hot spots or pressure points, even after a couple of hours. • Environmental awareness — since they don’t block your ear canal, you stay fully aware of traffic, other riders, or people around you, which matters a lot for outdoor training. • Improved sound over the original OpenRun — Shokz added an air conduction driver alongside the bone conduction one, so bass and overall clarity are noticeably better than older bone conduction models. • Battery life — easily gets you through a long run or a full ride, and the fast-charge feature is handy if you forgot to plug them in the night before. • USB-C charging — finally, no more proprietary magnetic cable to lose. Cons: • Price — they’re on the expensive side for what is still, fundamentally, a niche audio format. • Sound quality has a ceiling — even with the upgrades, it’s not going to compete with proper in-ear or over-ear headphones. Bass and detail are decent for the category but noticeably behind sealed headphones. • Wind noise — on windy days (cycling especially), the sound can get a bit drowned out. • Controls take some getting used to — the button layout isn’t the most intuitive at first. Would I recommend them? Yes — especially if you’re a runner or cyclist who prioritizes safety and awareness over pure sound quality. If you want rich, immersive audio, look elsewhere. But if you want headphones you can wear for hours without discomfort while still hearing what’s going on around you, the OpenRun Pro 2 are one of the best in their category.

J’utilisais auparavant des écouteurs sans fil qui ne tenaient jamais pendant mes séances, ou un casque classique beaucoup trop imposant qui donnait rapidement chaud. J’étais assez sceptique avant d’acheter ce casque, même si j’aime beaucoup les innovations technologiques. Finalement, je suis bluffé. Le confort est excellent et on oublie très vite qu’on le porte. On peut parfois sentir légèrement l’arceau derrière la tête, mais ce n’est vraiment pas gênant. Même lors des séances de musculation, y compris allongé sur un banc, il reste bien en place. En course à pied, c’est tout simplement parfait. Le gros point fort est la conduction osseuse : on profite pleinement de sa musique tout en restant attentif aux sons environnants, ce qui est très rassurant en extérieur. Un produit innovant, confortable et efficace que je recommande sans hésiter.
