Major upgrade from version 1. . . I been with shockz since the start and these are fantastic running/cycling headphones for longer events/training days. I also have the open air fit headphones (good for short workouts & da office)
I super love these! They never fall off, they charge easily, and you forget that you are wearing them. They are my 4th set, and I plan on getting another set. My wife bought a set too. My only request is that they have the "tap twice to redial" and I wish they were louder.
Backstory - growing up I had a lot of ear infections and surgeries. This has reduced my ability to have the same clarity as most people. I wear these daily (12+ hours a day) and have enjoyed clear sounds as well as continued improvement in sound quality. I started with a pair of Shokz Open Run - I have used Shokz Open Run Pros (1st Gen) and I can definitely hear the difference between each generation. I highly recommend these to everyone who askes.
Bought these as a gift for my spouse and she loves them. She runs on local trails and I wanted her to be able to hear her surroundings for safety reasons. She thinks the volume is great and they are comfortable. She sometimes forgets she is wearing them! She says she would definitely buy them again. She struggled with in ear headphones always falling out, so she is super happy with how these stay in place so well.
I am enjoying my Shokz they are light weight and comfortable. I wore them to my workout class and they did the job stayed in place and I like that the not in my ears. There great
