SHOKZ New OpenRun Pro 2 Mini-Open-Ear, Bone Conduction Sport Headphones -with Reflective Strip -Sweat Resistant, Workout Headphones -Secure, Wireless, Comfortable Fit-Deep Bass and Smart Mic App

You alone will know why an open ear headset might be something you’d want. So let me just focus on the function of these. Battery life is epic. I mean all day. I use them all day a lot of the time. Comfort is excellent. As I said, sometimes I wear them all day. I barely know they are there. In fact, sometimes I forget they are there. sizing is something we need to talk about. I am 6 feet tall and have a normal sized head I suppose and the mini ones fit me perfectly. I also have short hair so keep that in mind. The reason this is important is because the standard ones might give me a little more freedom without getting tight. I really don’t care about that because the minis allow me to sit in a chair without being uncomfortable when I put my head against the pillow. They can also be used in bed. In fact, sometimes I sleep all night long with these on, and they are still there when I wake up. If you can wear the mini and have a little bit of distance between your neck and head and you don’t have to look up a lot, get the mini! Otherwise get the standard ones and be aware that you probably won’t be able to put the back of your head against anything without removing them. Yes, you can pull them down and put them around your neck and they will stay there until you are ready to put them back over your ears. The sound is excellent. Especially once you download the app and boost the base a little. That is the essential feature of these with the extra speakers. However, they work just fine without the extra speakers as long as you were fine with a little treble. Since I normally listen. to podcasts, it doesn’t matter to me. I am just listening to some person‘s voice most of the time. However, if you use them in the classic mode, which means you are just getting the bone conduction, be aware that when you turn it up to a higher volume, you may feel some buzzing on your temples. I suppose I could look up the IP rating for these. I don’t know what it is. But I’ve worn them in the rain and not had any difficulties. USB-C charging is clutch! And I saved the best for last. The microphone call quality and noise, cancellation or voice isolation is really top notch. I mean, handset quality. I really prefer using these for telephone calls over AirPod earphones. These things blocked out a crowing rooster! I mean, wow! i’ve been using them for a few months and they seem to be pretty durable. No problems. The case that they come in is very nice and they charge quickly. I really don’t have a downside for these except maybe it would be nice to have the microphone extension Like the other model. But then again, the voice quality on these is so good. I don’t think I need it and that would just be something else in the way. I got these on sale. I don’t know what they cost right now. But if it is within your budget and you are considering them, just hit the buy button because they were great.

⭐ Rating: 5/5 These are amazing overall, but sizing is something you definitely want to pay attention to before ordering. 🔧 What I used it for: Daily use for music, calls, and general listening around the house and while working. ✅ Pros: Very comfortable once you get the correct size Excellent battery life for how compact they are Bluetooth range is strong — works across the house without dropouts Good sound quality for everyday listening Lightweight and easy to wear for long periods ❌ Cons: Sizing is important — I had to exchange the first set for a smaller size If the fit is off, comfort and sound isolation will suffer 🧠 Details: Once I got the correct size, these fit really well and became extremely comfortable even during long listening sessions. Battery life has been impressive considering how small they are — I don’t feel like I’m constantly charging them. Bluetooth connection has also been solid, with no issues moving around the house while staying connected. The main thing to watch out for is getting the correct size from the start, since that makes a big difference in both comfort and performance. 🏁 Final Verdict: Excellent everyday headphones with great battery life, comfort, and range. Just make sure you measure your head and get the right size the first time — once fitted correctly, they’re fantastic.

Not loud at all which is a good thing. If you’re looking for something to be able to HEAR music (not all the extra bass etc) this is a good product. Lightweight, charges fast, stays on while running. The carrying case is very nice as well. Haven’t used them for a phone call yet.

Super happy with these. A bit on the pricey side, but totally worth it in the long run. I work 8 hour shifts often listening to music the whole time and on medium volume I can happily report the 14+hr battery to be accurate. Charges quick and pairs even quicker. Multi device pairing is a breeze too, only being made easier by the app where you can toggle on and off devices that the headphones will try to pair to. So, basically you can pair a bunch of devices and turn the ability to connect to them on and off. For me, I usually pair to my laptop and phone, but have my watch and streaming stick saved and toggled off so the headphones prioritize my phone and laptop so they don't fight for pairing power. I had the minus volume button deteriorate and come off rendering the rocker almost useless. I reached out to support and they sent me a new pair free of charge since it was still under warranty. Really nice and easy and now I have two pairs, just one I can't turn the volume down on nor rely on its water resistance. I'd consider myself an average sized dude 5'10" @160lbs and the "mini" size fits perfect and I barely know it's on me until I get a notification and hear it IN STEREO! Stereo audio is also a big plus for me and one of the main downsides to using just one in-ear earbud. Plus I get normal surround sound of the world around me in addition to stereo music. I think it's just one of the best daily-wear inventions yet. The Pro2 over the Pro1 any day! I'm serious about the extra sound drivers to pump that bass without skull rattling. It's a real comfort boost. You can change it to fully vibration mode in the app, but I've only done that on my Pro2 to show people how bad the Pro1 is lol.

These headphones are really good if you want to hear what’s going on around you while listening to music or podcasts. They’re super comfortable and easy to wear, even for a long time. They work great in normal situations, like walking around or doing stuff at home. Music sounds good, and once things are quiet, everything is clear. But in loud environments, they don’t work as well. For example, when I’m power washing my car, I can barely hear talk radio or podcasts. The same thing happens when I’m running and cars drive by—it gets hard to hear voices. Music is still okay, but talking is harder to understand. Overall, they’re really good for comfort and safety, especially for runs or everyday use. I just wish they were a little louder.

As soon as I started encountering multiple problems from my AirPods Pro 2 after 2 years of abusive use, I was in the market for some alternatives. Some of the features I prioritize in wireless earbuds are long battery life, good sound quality, simple and consistent Bluetooth connectivity, and ease of use. After some research, I came across the OpenRun Pro 2 with many reviews stating its improved sound quality compared to its predecessor. I was initially hesitant given by its high price tag and my unfamiliarity with the SHOKZ brand, but I decided to give their flagship product a shot. Here are some of my thoughts after 4 months of use. I went to the SHOKZ website to print out their measuring guide to decide between their standard and mini variants. I was a good half-inch over the cutoff limit for the mini. I still decided to buy the mini after reading some reviews expressing some discomfort with the standard size. The mini fits snugly on the back of my head, leaving room for two fingers to fit in-between. Sure, the headband doesn't droop down to the nape as intended by the cover pictures. Needless to say, I think I made the right decision with the size. The packaging is excellent with the OpenRun Pro 2 arriving fully charged in a moderately sized silicone case. I have never once used the case in my 4 months of use, optioning to throw the headband naked into my cramped backpack while commuting. The headphone still holds up fine after daily torture. The controls are arguably intuitive with the volume rocker on the right side and the function control button on the left. You use your right thumb to control the volume and the labels protrude slightly so you know which button to press by feel. The function control button is on the left side next to the driver near the temple with 1 press for play/pause, 2 presses for next track, and 3 presses for previous track. Long press will activate the virtual assistant. I am very impressed with the battery life of this product. With moderate use at half volume, I can easily exceed 12 hours without needing to charge compared to 2-3 hours from my AirPods Pro 2. I have absolutely no complaints with battery management here. Bluetooth connectivity is also impressive, allowing me to walk around the house and my backyard with minimal dropouts. Multipoint pairing on this device is the best I have seen so far. I can seamlessly switch between my phone and my computer with the controls responding to the connected host currently playing any media. Latency is also not an issue at all. I am very particular with sound quality, and the OpenRun Pro 2 meets my expectation. The treble is crystal clear. The bass is quite lean and well-controlled, but the sub-bass doesn't extend far enough to be audible without EQ. Timbre sounds natural, but it can sound a bit "glassy" at times. While their mobile app is easy to navigate with product guides and online firmware updates, nearly all of their EQ presets are terrible. Bass boost is very muddy and bloated. Vocal is inferior to the classic preset. Treble boost straight up hurts my ears. My custom 5-band EQ is +3 and +2 on their 1st and 2nd band respectively and I tone down the 3kHz band by -1. Stick with either the standard or classic presets if needed. I often use my AirPods Pro 2 to listen to podcasts and audiobooks on the bed before going to sleep. As a side-sleeper, the OpenRun Pro 2 has been nothing short of amazing! With the excellent sound quality and battery life, I can watch YouTube videos or listen to audiobooks with my ear pressed against the pillow with little to no discomfort. The headband will still be on my head by the time I wake up. I can set an alarm without disturbing family members with the drivers next to my ears. This is a terrific sleeping aid for side-sleepers. My biggest complaint by far with the OpenRun Pro 2 has to be the volume control. I wish there is more variability of sound intensity with the discrete volume control, especially between 30-40% volume. I will often walk around my neighborhood late at night, jamming through my music playlist with little ambient noise. At 30%, the volume intensity is too quiet to enjoy the music, but stepping up one unit results in the device suddenly being too loud. It's as if they opted to switch the gain at those levels and it disappoints me to hear this issue persist despite multiple firmware updates. There is never a sweet spot of volume intensity between 30-40%. Overall, it has been a pleasure to use the OpenRun Pro 2. The headband fits nicely around my head. The sound quality is impressive. Battery life is spectacular! And it is forever anointed on my head as I sleep. There are some features I have yet to test such as microphone quality, sweat resistance, and bone conductivity. Yes, classic mode uses bone conductivity, but I have not used that preset enough to fully develop solid opinions. I guess if you want a more mid-forward tonality, then go with classic, however, my custom preset has been sufficient enough for daily use. If they could somehow fix the volume issue, I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone looking for a substitute wireless earbud/headphone if their budget supports it.

A great product. Bone conduction worked very nice... on my right side. However, I seem to have cochlear, or nerve-related damage on my left side, so I can't get sound on my left side. I tested the headphone left side by turning them around, and they work fine. They are truly as described. If you have outer or middle ear issues, these will work very well. Sound was fully adjustable with with the Shokz app. Connected very fast and easy. I bought the "mini" version, and they fit nice. Very light weight. The carrying case holds the headphones very well, also. It would fit nicely in a gym bag. Charging cord is included, but NOT the AC adapter.

This was my choice. Overall they are the best for me. Open ear so I can hear everything. Serious all day comfort. I quite often forgot that I was wearing them all throughout work. They are great at the gym, or running. I love the physical control buttons. They are the best. Multiplying connection was pretty good, it automatically connected to my phone and my TV. There is sometimes a delay and sound to video when connected to the TV, but other times it's more accurate. Now for some drawbacks, if you're laying your head against a pillow, the headset will shift. If there was something shokz can do to fix that, that would be so awesome. For me, I've been spoiled by other Bluetooth earbud companies with the putting on to turn on feature, as well as a charging case. Shokz next version should have a charging case as well as wear detection.

Tiens ses promesses, très satisfait.

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! 👍

Item is very good and I use it every single day, somehow, the power button failed to work. I contacted the vendor for the warranty. Without any questions and drama, they arranged the pickup and delivery. After a couple of days, I received a brand new item in unopened box.

Comodissime durante gli allenamenti e anche per l'ascolto di musica in casa o mentre si è in giro. L'audio è corposo e a volume massimo sembra di indossare quasi delle cuffie che però non ti isolano dal mondo esterno. Materiale eccezionale e durata sorprendente di almeno 12 ore. Comodissima la custodia in dotazione. Consigliatissime!

Geniales Teil, super zum Laufen, fällt nicht runter! Klang gut, und man hört immer noch die Aussengeräusche. Akku okay. Gehörgangsfreundlich, endlich keine Entzündungen mehr!
