Great running headphones! Very comfortable and great for safety as you can hear your surroundings. First time wearing outside the hear, but sound is not compromised. Got a set for my wife as well, it was the Run Pro 2 mini.
I love everything about these with the exception of the short battery life. I love that even though they don’t go inside the ear, when you’re listening to music at a higher volume it still mutes out the surrounding noise should you want that in a gym setting versus being more alert to noises outdoors.
i was skeptical at first, but once i tried the pro 2s, they blew my mind! i’ll never run with any other headphones. the sound is just right and im still able to hear my surroundings. sometimes i forget im wearing them lol highly recommend!
Pretty good sound quality and mostly comfortable. The proprietary magnetic charging connector works great, but god forbid you lose it. They have a delay when waking up that basically makes your phone notifications muted unless you were already listening to something else. The band around the back of the head is way too large, and I have a 7-7/8" headband.
The Pro 2s fix almost all of these problems, so just get those instead. If the Pro 2 minis will fit your head, they are basically perfect.
On the plus side, the Shokz app is buttery smooth and easy to use; the multiconnect is particularly well designed (being able to simultaneously pair to two devices and auto switch between them).
As a sweaty long distance runner i can't say how great these headphones are. They stay in place, leave me aware to my surroundings (very nice on the trail!) and are super light. I hardly notice them other than my music. It is so nice to be able to listen to music while exercising without any drawback.
Thank you for the great product and design, I will be purchasing more in the future I'm sure of it.
