I have used Shokz headphones since back when they still offered wired models (2010 or before). I've had 4-5 sets and only one actually failed (I wore it out). I broke all the others with rough treatment. I did have one that an off-brand charging cord malfunctioned and damaged the charging port. The new charging connection is great!!! I LOVE THESE HEADPHONES and I wear them EVERY DAY! I use them for my own background music and answering phone calls. They are AWESOME and work well while I'm doing noisy work and wearing earplugs. Thank you for a great product!!!
I love this concept! I am a recreational biker who is uncomfortable with noise canceling headphones while riding. I listen to podcasts more than music. These are comfortable to wear for extended periods of time with glasses. If I could change one thing it would be to remove the "beep" that sounds whenever volume is changed a notch.
I’m happy with the sound quality on voice and podcasts and treble heavy music. Not great in windy conditions unless you’ve got earmuffs or a hat on top so will have to see how these perform in winter. No real issues with connectivity except in very crowded environments (packed bus/train) when the Bluetooth connection isn’t as stable.
The set up was really easy and took about five minutes. I purchased this openrun model to replace an older shokz that I lost. I like this model a lot better because it has a better, smaller fit and it's more comfortable.
