Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Bluetooth Wireless Headphones - Black (S820-ST-BK-US)

Had noise cancelling headphones for years, so it was a little different getting used to an open ear version, but very happy so far!

The sound is great. Best in class, I think. Very comfortable and ready for long wearing. The on device controls are incomplete, and leave a lot to be desired. Being unable to control listening mode from the device itself is a huge detractor to me, as it forces me to a mobile app that may not be supported forever and screams "we only paid for a minimally viable product". The app, software, and UI/UX are so poor, in fact, that it makes me doubt the whole product.

Too short, they don't stick in place, audio is ok, but I find myself constantly wiggling with them to return them to their position

I got the Mini, but it is still too big so if I rest my head back, it doesn’t connect with my temple.

I purchased my first Shokz open ear headphones when they first came out and loved them so that I upgraded when the second iteration came out. Now I’ve upgraded again and am happy I did! They are lighter (I forget I’m wearing them!), with even better sound.

These things have a fast better sound quality than the original aftershokz I purchased ~6 years ago. Only issue is the fit around the head. They an a bit loose. I used the guideline on the site to determine which set. Wish I had gone with the mini. I measured around 10in. Just send a little floppy.

Great headphones! I have two pairs and the new models are the best so far.

The open run 2 headset appears to be great for podcast / speech. I feel they don't reach the quality of my closed ear headset with noise canceling.

Live the style and ease of these earphones. Allows me to hear people on the bike trails and listen to music or podcasts.

These headphones are worse than the original open run. They are bulky, heavy and so tight that they give me a headache. They use less bone conduction, so you lose a lot of bass when wearing earplugs with them. They are too loud. I had to adjust Spotify's equalizer to make all music -10 decibels to get the the lowest volume tolerable on the headphones.

100x better sound than older versions. Only complaint is I wish they read out text messages and sometimes just aren't loud enough. BUT. . . these are my go-to headphones by far.

These products are incredible! I love them. You can use them for hours longer than anything going in or on the ears. Sound quality is amazing too

I do wish it was more clear on which size will fit you, I should have gotten the mini

These are exactly what I've been wanting - I can listen to music but still hear the world around me [and not be an a-hole with blasting music thru a speaker]. Love the ability to switch into Classic mode if/when desired. App is easy to use, charges fast, and stays on when running.

This is my wife's second pair of shocks. This pair is hurting the back of her ear.

I know you can't just slap a 2 on it and call it new but so close. The sound and sound perception is absolutely better. however there are many things that are good but just miss the mark. USBc great that it is now common. don't like the flap is it more water proof? can't hardly open the port really liked the shokz charger unless I forgot it then I am SOL so is new better idk button action I like that it is more tactile and that the voice and tones are less harsh I appreciate the "battery low recharge" message is gone volume while the sound is more dynamic it seems to be quieter than the previous 5 units that I have owned. and when I try to lower the volume so I can listen to white noise at night it goes only so low and then cuts out so it seems the high and low ends are just missing from previous models. I have only noticed this once but when I am sweating or get wet the sound quality has gone up in previous models but for some reason when these get wet they seem muffled like the majority of the sound is coming from the speakers and not from the bone conducting again this only happened once as I am not trying to get this wet. battery life rocks!! feel and look are on point, I just don't feel they are better than the previous version of this product

I've had all three of shokz's flagship headphones, the last one being in daily use for three years, with zero issues ever. Still, I decided to upgrade to the newest model because I wanted the USB charging port. But the sound is also so much better, and the updated Bluetooth version makes going back and forth between the sound on my phone and my computer so much better. It's automatic and seamless, where the last pair I would regularly have to restart the headphones to get it to switch from my phone to my computer. Its honestly made my life so much easier and that wasn't even why I decided to upgrade.

I can’t imagine using any other headphones for running. Being able to hear as I’m running is such a relief! They have great sound and fit securely.

I’ve tried the open run pro 1 in a store and they were impressive. I own the open fit 2 as well, and they sound good too. But the open run pro 2 was terrible. Maybe I got a defective model, but they sounded like AM radio. I tried several different sound profiles and moving them around my ears, but could not find a combination that sounded anywhere close to acceptable. Had to return them.

Excellent sound! Love not having to put something in my ear canal
