Using the Shokz Open Run, the sound quality of the music is almost as good as the best in-the-the ear head phones with the added advantage of being able to also hear ambient sound. I use the Sholz Open Run while inline skating in NYC traffic as well as listening to music when I am doing stretching, weight lifting and rowing at home. I am a satisfied. I recommend Shokz to anybody who exercises and needs to be aware of sounds in one’s immediate surroundings.
These are comfortable to wear and connect easily to my phone and my running watch, depending on which one I’m running with. They allow me to hear the sounds around me, making me safer on my run, whether they’re on trails or roads!
They are awesome for the first two weeks then I turned them off for a second and they started to heat up then they didn’t turn on and they started to heat up more and they wouldn’t stop heating up until it was hard to touch them so I ran them under cold water and the heating finally stopped then I tried to charge them but they didn’t charge, the light didn’t even turn on so I put in a warranty claim and they still haven’t responded.
Fantastic headphones recommended highly, only wish they could get a little louder and battery could last a little longer (but loudness and battery would not keep me from recommending to anybody)
