SHOKZOpenFit 2+ Open-Ear Headphones,Wireless Bluetooth Headset, Dolby Audio Enabled, Comfortable Earbuds with Soft Hooks, 48H Playtime, IP55 Water-Resistant, USB-C & Wireless Fast Charging, BlackCarbonfree Certified

These are great headphones. I usually use over-ear ones, which are ideal in colder months with a hat, but I needed something for warmer weather when I'm out walking or running – so my ears don't sweat. These are perfect for casual listening or more intense exercise, as they stay securely in place.The sound quality is excellent – I usually keep the volume at around 70%. Battery life is decent too. (Walk/run daily & charge once a week) They're waterproof, which is a bonus, though I haven't tested that feature yet. They are fairly easy to use. download the app and pair via bluetooth and away you go.Value-wise, they are on the expensive side, but you're paying for a high-quality product, and they're priced similarly to other premium headphones. They're very comfortable to wear – I previously had the Galaxy Buds Pro 2 and find these a much better experience in terms of both sound and comfort. Would recommend if you can justify the price.

I've had the Shokz Openrun 2 for a while which combine bone conduction and small speakers to provide reasonable sound. They do allow some outside noise in which is ideal (and safe) for running outside, but they didn't work in a noisy environment like a gym. So I wanted something for that gym, for general use at home and maybe with better sound quality. I also have narrow ear canals and earbuds with a tight fit tend to push earwax into my ear leading to partial, albeit reversible, deafness. Full headphones are just too heavy and obtrusive.The OpenFit 2+ seemed like an option as they tick many of my boxes. The sound is noticeably better than the Openruns and louder - I listen to a lot of choral music and the quality is acceptable for use in an external environment if not audiophile that you'd want for quiet listening. They lack very deep bass, but with the Dolby on, the soundstage is pretty impressive. The fit is rock solid and the design means that they are usable on public transport without annoying your neighbour. Battery life is huge as they recharge when you replace them in the case, which I've still not had to re-charge after several weeks. Connection is as easy as just taking them out of the case or replacing them (an annoyance of my other Shokz is that you have to remember to turn them off after use). They partially meet my gym test is that they will overcome the normal (reasonably loud music), but don't stand a chance if I'm near a class where it's been kranked up. They will connect to more than one device simultaneously and I've never had a drop out. They are not cheap, but you get what you pay for and they do look to be made for the long haul.

Love these headphones. Battery life is long, about 8 hours per charge for audio books and music. Sound quality is great for what I need it for and the open nature means they you can still hear your surroundings, so these work well in the office or when running. Light weight and comfortable without making your ears feel sweaty like in the ear models. Apps support is great and easy to switch between devices

These headphones are brilliant.They’re incredibly comfortable, being lightweight. There is no chance of them coming loose/falling off during exercise (unlike AirPods) due to the solid clip on/over-ear design. Also the battery life is brilliant (unlike AirPods!) with the headphones being able to last 10+ hours easily and the charging case allowing multiple recharges.First time I used these I thought they had failed to pair to my iPhone and the sound was coming out of the iPhone speaker - turns out they had paired perfectly I just wasn’t used to hearing ambient noises so clearly.Great sound, easy to pair/charge and they seem robust. Have used them on multiple long days of exercising and couldn’t leave without them now. Worth every penny (especially if you can pick them up on a Prime day)

These are very impressive earphones, the sound is excellent considering the open ear form factor, and the battery life, build quality, comfort and connectivity are all top class. The issue, for me, is with their current cost. I tried four different open ear models, including these, and while they are undoubtedly one of the best models I tried, they also cost more than double the price of the Soundcore Aerofit 2 - and I could not tell the difference between the two. With LDAC enabled on the Aerofit 2s, they actually sound richer than these, and the audio quality on standard battery saving mode is practically the same. So for less than half the price you're getting a product that's is practically on the same level in almost every aspect. I consider myself to be an audiofile, but I couldn't justify paying more than double for something isn't noticeably better in any significant way.
