I love these so much! Sometimes earbuds are uncomfortable after a while so I loved that these just sit. And the sound is really good. :u1F970:

Been using them for about 2 weeks now. Went from beats to these. I like how these feel way better, the sound quality is not quite the same. The phone quality is really good. Neg. Haven’t been able to find a buy a extra charging cord. I have only been getting about 5 hours of use at a time before battery dies. I have to have them up Loud to hear, and with podcast they vibrate to the bass in the voice and it is really annoying. Overall I’m happy I bought them.

Sound is good. Too big and not secure

Sound is okay and it is nice to still be able to hear around me. I measured my head for sizing and ordered the standard size but they are huge on my head and move around quite a bit. Wish I would have gotten the smaller ones. If this is the right size for me, they are too loose fitting to feel secure and comfortable, my hair in my ponytail is always hitting them and feeling like they will come off.

Pretty Good, Not Great (What did you all change?)

I bought these after borrowing my partner's Aeropex for over a year. I was surprised to see that Aftershokz was now just Shokz, the aeropex are now called "openrun". I assumed it was just a name change and ordered my pair, excited to have my own. I was so disappointed when I first used these headphones- although they look almost exactly the same, you can tell they changed something about them.
We did a blind sound test with the Openrun and previous Aeropex and both my partner and I could tell which ones were the Openrun. The sound quality is a little worse, not super noticeable but once I realized they sound more muffled I can't unhear it. The main annoyance is when the volume is turned up high (not all the way, anything over around 75%), the headphones vibrate a little bit. Specifically the part distributing the sound right outside your ear, so it's just a constant tickle that can be so annoying.
I love some things about the headphones, they allow me to listen to music/podcasts and hear my surroundings, which has been helpful in all sorts of situations. This version also charges a lot faster than the prior, but they also seem to run through battery faster. I used to charge the Aeropex maybe once/week with regular use, but I have to charge the Openrun every 1-2 days. It's not a huge deal since they charge so quickly, but something to keep in mind depending on your use.
Ultimately I don't think I'd repurchase. It feels like the company changed the quality while hiding behind a "new and improved" battery, which feels gross and exploitive. They're pretty expensive for the issues that come with it. Really disappointed in these changes :(

I purchased the Open Run
on March 25, 2022

I purchased the Open Run because I run a lot. The product claims to have an 8 hour battery but it died after 4 1/2 hours. The sound is good & the out of ear canal is good but the battery life stinks.
