I bought an Open Run for me and an Open Run Mini for my wife. We've had them for 2 weeks now, both work great. Pros: * very user friendly, just takes a whilw to get used to. * Very sturdy, dropped them twice so far, still working great * Wife spilled coffee over my Open Run, they still work great. Cons: Surprisingly i found the mini to be a better fit than mine although i have a big head, mine are still very good though.
Tested yesterday for running: very good! At work at mid volume: enough to hear music/podcasts but still very aware of surroundings.
Battery life: so far so good, i charge them once every couple of days. All in all, very nice, already recommended it to a couple of coworkers
I was a skeptic. I have been proven wrong. Absolutely love the comfort of these headphones. Awesome technology that allows me to stay safe while running and still able to hear ambient noise.
I hate having ear pods in my ears b/c they are difficult to keep in and easy to lose. But with the shokz I don’t have these issues and they are comfortable. I can listen to music, answer calls and talk with no issues. Worth the money
The weight, style, sound and overall functionality of theses headphones are top-of-the-line. And if that's all I was to review, I'd give them 5 stars. What's not 5 stars though? The build quality. This is now my second pair of purchased Shokz, after my last pair was replaced 3 times within 2 years and then fell out of warranty. I'm giving Shokz one more try, drive they were on sale and I really do love running with them. But if these have as many issues as the last, I'm just going to have to find something else.
I love these! I use these every time I go to the gym. I never have to worry about them moving or falling off or losing them. I highly recommend them! They charge quickly as well. I bought my husband some because he was always using mine and he bought some for his parents.
Sound quality is excellent. I bought some cheap, no name brand devices first and there is no comparison. The Shocks are louder, clearer and able to be heard over wind noise on my bike rides. Well the extra cost of these high end units.
