They are a little bigger than the previous version, but its not noticable when running. It's taking a little to get used to the different beeping pattern. I use mine for Trail Running, and working in very loud environments. I've noticed these new ones make it a little harder to hear what is going on around you. In loud environments (leaf blower, pressure washer, the gym) I wear ear plugs and use the app to change the setting to Classic mode and it's just as good as the old model.
My mini Shokz open run pro 2 are all that I could want. I only use them for listening to books, and the sound is great. They’re also very comfortable and easy to operate.
Great for most uses, except in high background noise situations, where an in-ear earphone is definitely superior. Otherwise I am quite pleased with my second set of these headphones.
This is my second of Open Run headphones. My original, first generation pair was lost. I love the Pro 2 even more. They are totally comfortable and the minor sound adjustments you can use on the app are helpful. I use these running. I. sweat lots and have never had a problem with the headphones moving. I'm outside asuch as possible so particularly appreciate the ability to hear other people, runners, cars, bikes etc around me. The quality is great for open headphones.
Bought these as I started to get into running outdoors. These are great as you can hear your music well and be aware of your surroundings! It’s also the most comfortable headphones i’ve worn, i’ve forgotten i’ve had them on sometimes. I also enjoy using these when i’m doing chores around the house or just want “background” music while going about my day. It can be difficult to hear sometimes in noisy environments (traffic, on trains, etc)
