SHOKZ OpenRun Bone Conduction Headphones, Open-Ear Bluetooth Sports Earphones with Noise-Cancelling Mic, IP67 Waterproof Wireless Headset for Running and Workout, 8H Playtime, Blue, Sport Headband

Perfect!

I’ve been using the SHOKZ OpenRun Wireless Bone Conduction Headphones for a few weeks now, and they’ve exceeded my expectations. These open-ear Bluetooth earphones provide an incredibly comfortable fit, allowing you to stay aware of your surroundings while still enjoying crisp, clear sound. The bone conduction technology ensures that sound is transmitted through your cheekbones, leaving your ears open for environmental awareness — perfect for outdoor activities like running or cycling. The sound quality is impressive, with rich bass and clear highs, especially considering they don’t sit inside your ears. The battery life is solid, offering up to 8 hours of playtime on a single charge, and they’re also quick to charge. The lightweight design makes them incredibly comfortable to wear for extended periods without any discomfort. The SHOKZ OpenRun is also rated IP67 for water and sweat resistance, making them ideal for workouts or outdoor adventures. If you’re looking for a pair of bone conduction headphones that offer both safety and superior audio quality, I highly recommend these.

Best option for workout

Great headset, some issue positioning it on the head. Very durable and practical. My new go to headset. A bit inconsistent volume because of the difficulty in placement.

I didn’t like them even the quality is low when I connected it via Bluetooth with my iPhone I can hear clearly but others couldn’t hear me as if I was far from the headphones

Broken in less than a year

A must have

Just stopped to work after few months of using even though I didn’t use it too often !!! So poor quality I paid 200 dollars for what?

Pour l'avoir essayé en footing ou j'entend la musique malgré le vent et à la salle de sport. Super content, les oreilles dégagée et confortable. Cette technologie de vibrations par les os est vraiment surprenante.

Słuchawki wykorzystujące przewodnictwo kostne Shokz OpenRun świetnie się sprawdzają tak, gdzie nie chce się odcinać od dźwięków otoczenia. Jest to ich główna zaleta i wada zarazem, gdyż próba korzystania z nich w hałasie raczej jest skazana na porażkę. Tak więc doskonale nadają się do biegania (raczej po lesie niż w centrum miasta), na rower, ale już na przykład w siłowni zupełnie się nie sprawdzają - tu lepszym wyborem są słuchawki z aktywnym tłumieniem hałasu. Jeśli chodzi o jakość dźwięku to doskonale sobie radzą z tonami średnimi i wysokimi jednak w przypadku basów jest słabo (no ale to wynika z ich sposobu działania). Świetnie więc nadają się np. do słuchania audiobook'ów czy prowadzenia rozmów telefonicznych, ale już do słuchania muzyki nie są najlepszym wyborem. Połączenia telefoniczne są bardzo czyste i dobrze odszumiane. Należy również oddać, że są bardzo komfortowe i w zasadzie można je nosić cały dzień wręcz o nich zapominając. Finalnie fajny produkt, ale dla osób które kupują je ze świadomości co biorą. -1 gwiazdka za zastosowanie dziwnego magnetycznego złącza do ich ładowania zamiast standardowego USB-C (kolejny kabelek do ładowania, o którym trzeba pamiętać -_-' ).

I ordered these after trying an off brand on Amazon. The off brand was adequate but had a lot of sound bleed. When I received my first pair of Shokz Open Runs they were AWESOME. extremely light, flexible, comfortable, I could wear all day without a headache, sounded great, and battery lasted ALL DAY!!! These were my go to headset for about two months. One day they bugged out and started triggering my hands free assistant. After charging them overnight, as I usually do, they were unresponsive. The warranty claim was easy to initiate but was overall slower than expected turn around time. About fourish weeks from starting a claim to receiving a new headset. Still, receiving a new headset was a plus. Used my replacement headset for about two weeks and the very same thing happened again. Called the warranty number and talked to a real person in Texas. I explained and he asked me how long I charge the unit for. I responded overnight. He said thats probably why they keep shorting out.... What? Its 2023. I havent had to time how long I charge something since I was a child and bought my toys at Radio Shack back in 1980. He told me it takes 2-3 hours to charge completely. Anything more may damage the battery. I asked is there no battery overcharge protection built into a $130 pair of headphones and he said no. Seriously good customer service experience overall but the product itself is lacking in durability. I don't have the time or brain power to remember to take a pair of headphones off the charger before they get damaged. After going over the included instructions, I can find no mention of charging times, however I do see operating temperatures and environments appropriate to its use. As seen in the photo, it states 32°-113°F. I work outside, in hot muggy Missouri,I sweat, profusely. I guess if you plan on sweating, don't use these outside in the summer, or winter, and plan your day around babysitting the charging of your headset, these might be the headset for you. I am returning mine for a refund. I hate giving low star rating. However no amount of customer service or usability can out weigh durability and an obvious flaw. I have hafld dozens of BT headsets from $-$$$. All of which have lasted years, charging overnight or longer. Please fix this issue and I would repurchase and give 6 stars if I could. UPDATE About two days after i emailed the company for an exchange (the refund window closed at 45 days) i was emailed a return lable. Less than a week after I made the phone call mentioned above, I received a replacement (and then some) in the mail. The product may have an issue but the 100% customers experience really does make up for the inconvenience. Keep innovative and refining your product, keep your A+ customer service, and you will dominate the wireless sound market.

The Shokz Open Runs use bone conduction technology that lets you listen to music, while still being aware of your surroundings. Note that if you are looking for a pair of earbuds that have excellent noise cancelling (these have none at all) or good sound quality, this is NOT where you should be looking. These are designed specifically for people who want to be aware of their surroundings while they are running or cycling. I decided to buy these because I was tired of having my earbuds fall out of my ears while I'm running, and also felt like it was not very safe running around and not being able to hear your surroundings at all. I don't find them very good for the gym, since they have a wrap around band on the back, so they will get in the way if you do any exercise where your head is resting against a bench (also gyms typically like to play extremely loud music, so you probably won't be able to hear anything). As a runner, these are great. They stay in firmly place (even with lots of rain and sweat), are very comfortable (wore it for a long 2-3 hour run with no problems), and you will be able to hear everything around you, which is pretty important if you train near roads where there are a lot of cars and other people. The bluetooth range is perfectly good, I pair it up with my Garmin 255 and I have had no issues with dropouts (I have noticed that a lot of cheaper bluetooth headphones often drop out while you are running). The only downside is that the audio quality is OK at best, and they perform pretty averagely once you turn up the volume. That being said, audio quality is not what I'm looking for in a pair of earbuds specifically made for running. Definitely a must have if you are a runner or cyclist. If you are using it for anything else, I would look elsewhere.

Experiencing audio through bone conduction headphones offers a unique and often delightful listening journey. This innovative technology allows sound to travel through your bones, leaving your ears open to your surroundings. Many users find this particularly beneficial for safety during outdoor activities or for staying aware in busy environments. The comfort and distinct audio quality provided by these devices are frequently highlighted in positive feedback. Overall, they present a compelling alternative for those seeking a different way to enjoy their sound.
