So far these are pretty great

Generally I'm pretty pleased with my switch to Shokz. I wasn't sure if these were going to be for me but I'm getting used to them and enjoying the extra safety of still being able to hear. My main concern was the conduction style giving me headaches but nothing so far. I'm glad I got the mini as the cable behind the head would have been far more annoying if it was any longer. I do wish that cable wasn't a fixed one or at least be bent or flexed to be more out of the way (I have long heavy hair in a braid when I run and it would be nice to be able to adjust the cable to be closer to my head so the braid doesn't shift it). I occasionally have issues with the bluetooth connection cutting in & out but it's only happened a couple times so far.
Fast and easy to setup and operate! The user manual has simple illustrations that are easy to follow; charging is fast. I wanted them because as a road biker I need to be able to hear external street noise and remain safe.
I love my Shokz Mini! It is very comfortable to where I forget it’s even on me. Perfect for office as I am still able to have conversation when someone walks up & still get to listen to the music I want to hear. The device itself is light, easy to put on or take off. Bluetooth connection was very easy & has magnetic charging.
For future models, would like to see at least 8 hours-10 hours of battery life, as long as a work day. Various colors on the mini and maybe a thinner receiver, so when you have to pick up a phone call or put a headset on for the teams meetings, I don’t have to take off the Shokz device.
Great way to get out of your head when the negative self talk kicks in!

Bought for long distance road/gravel rides when I need a little pick me up with a tune to tackle a climb or fight against headwinds. Have occasionally used on the trails with my mtb as i sometimes tend to self talk in a negative way…helps get me out of my head. Find these to be very comfortable and the sound great. Occasionally can’t make out the prompts if I’ve turned the headset off or not. This could be a bit more clear. Otherwise absolutely love the product!
