I Loved it

Fantastic Headphones
I have recently purchased my waterproof headphones to replace another brand. I am totally pleased with my purchase, the clarity of the sound is fantastic, easy to use and in combination with the app, the selection of variations to my playlist is great. Highly recommended
2026-05-26
Comfortable
I find the Dotz extremely comfortable and often forget I am wearing them, especially if I have paused the book or music I was listening too. Unlike the AirPod Pros I was using, I don’t get that same gummy feeling in my ears after listening to a book or music album for more than 30 minutes.
Would recommend to everyone.
2026-05-24
Good to have easy access to all settings
I wish my other accessories had such an app to make it easy to find instructions and access all settings
2026-05-24
Shokz best app
I like this app, need a turn off button to this app other than everything is ok
2026-05-18
Great product
Really impressed with these headphones. The open-ear design is comfortable enough to wear for hours and still lets you stay aware of your surroundings, which is ideal for running and commuting. Sound quality is surprisingly good for bone conduction, battery life lasts ages, and they stay secure during workouts. The only downside is they’re not as bass-heavy as in-ear headphones, but that’s expected with this style. Overall, excellent product and definitely worth the money.
2026-05-17
Apps great Headphones are even better
App does nothing special but it does exactly what it needs to do headphones speak for themself if your an athlete these are the headphones you need
2026-05-15
Good product
Bought a openfit pro, amazing!
2026-05-12
Only supports some models
Why have an app for the brand but then only support some models of headphones?
2026-05-12
Open Run Pro 2
As a girl with small ears, these are an absolute game changer!! They don’t move at all for my runs and look super cute too.
Also love that I can still hear the surroundings despite my music playing on full volume! I am an anxious girly and constantly looking behind myself……
Long story, short, add to cart right now and thank me later 🫶🏼
2026-05-12
I’m impressed
I tried iPods and they are good but nowhere as good as Shokz. The sound quality and volume of Shotz is phenomenal. Because the sound is transferred via bone contact you can still hear road traffic. They are great.
2026-05-11
Amazing
I can use my Shokz at anytime anywhere while listening to my favourite music and still being able to listen to the people around me! 👍👂
2026-05-11
Sick of sore ears!!!
I was sick of my AirPods hurting my ears on longer flights. I have now moved on to the Openfit Pro from Skokz. And what a shock…….. great sound and no more sore ears…….#regrets #finallyfoundwhatihavebeenlookingfor
2026-05-10
Sound great
I use them pretty much exclusively for running and trail running. They sound great and are so light I forget they’re there until my running app calls out info. The only issue I’ve had is with the Shokz app not pairing, particularly when I’m not in wifi. Connecting with my other apps is no problem and quick as well. The Shokz app also seems to be stuck telling me they are at 80% charge when they were already at 80% before a two hour run. It would be great if my phone could just tell me what its charge level is.
2026-05-10

Trash
Another buggy app that does nothing but restricts function. Clickbait, notifications, marketing, all for an app that won’t connect to the headphones my phone is already connected too.
2026-04-11
Unique pair of headphones
Very happy I can listen to music and communicate with people especially on a FMG mine site where headphones that restrict your hearing are band but with my shoks you can still hear all around you while having side beats playing in the background
2026-04-09
Simple and clean
The app is feature packed and Shokz have made it very simple to use. The layout intuitive and the help guides a bite size and on point. One of the best designed apps I have used.

Aerobic experience transformed
I wanted to improve my cardio capacity in running and pool swimming. I replaced my generic headset for OpenRun Pro 2 for runs, and got OpenSwim Pro for the pool. The sound clarity allows immersive experience that takes the focus away from strain and allows to build capacity by following the music. Open ear configuration allows for ambient awareness. Open Run 2 sound drivers are unlike any in the market, with sound similar to over-ear premium products. And Open Swim adds a whole new meditative dimension in water that lets laps flow.
2026-03-23
Software & Hardware
Since I have bought the headphones I am using it daily for work. The software is great and the hardware is fine too, but the on and off switch seems to be the weakest part as it fell off recently without having damaged the unit ( never fell, never got thrown anywhere,…) Otherwise a great product.
2026-03-22
Great app
I think this app is very well put together
2026-03-21
Amazing Product and Functional App!
The Shokz app was very easy to navigate, its design is straight forward and easy to use with everything I need to be able to see right there for me to use. This pairs up nicely with the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 product which has been such a comfortable innovative change to the way I listen to music and videos on my portable devices.
2026-03-16
OpenFit Air
Love my new OpenFit Air, great to use on my runs where I found other brands weren’t perfect to use as they would pop out when running. Audio is perfect and you can still hear the environment around you for safety purposes.
2026-03-14
So so good
Have grown to love my Shokz so much !!!! I rarely take them off now when they’re charged up!.. and.. they last all day on a charge no worries. Probably the only headphone I’ve known, where u do not tire from them being on.. u barely know they’re there. It’s just so so good.. having background music whenever I want, while still being able to hear ppl speak to me when I need… and, they stay in place while running or exercising, and.. with a slight upward push on the rear band at night time.. I can fall asleep listening to them with my head on my pillow!!.. these things are crazy.. and the sound quality is so impressive too.. when I wear these out…. I’ll be straight in2 new ones!! Love em!!!
2026-03-10
Useful App
i love how i can edit how i want my music to sound. best feature on the app!
one reco: wish i can see my opendots battery on the app without wearing them.
2026-03-06
Best ones by far
The Shokz OpenFit Air are the absolute best by far and i have had so many ear pieces over the years. They are so simple & easy to use. They don’t cause any ear pain, no matter how long you’ve been wearing them. The only thing that sucks (that i forget about every time) is you have to connect via Bluetooth *before* you take them out of the case.

Great for music and pod casts but can hardly hear the other person when on phone call
Full volume but when I take a call the bone conduction seems as though it doesn’t work and left with just the small speaker which is not loud enough for calls
2026-03-02
Easy Peasy
Straight forward control and set up to maximise user experience.
2026-02-25
Won’t update Open Run Pro 2 Firmware
Won’t download and update OpenRun Pro 2’s to latest firmware on iPhone 13Pro. Very poor experience for a flagship product. Not worth the money when the app won’t allow new features to be installed. Very unhappy.
2026-02-24
Upgraded from the 2018 model in 2026
My last set were Aftershokz bone conduction. Put on immediately noticed they sit a bit better on the ear even with sunglasses on, base and mid tones are substantially cleaner, range when walking away from my phone is a fair chunk larger and signal is stronger in the rooms that used to be trouble rooms. The new voice over lady is a little bit lower in tone but comes over clearer and still very pleasant.
Hardware change in functionality that stands out is how much more responsive power/volume buttons are on the bone conduction unit.

Opendots One, easily the best available in Australia!
I love open earbuds. I’ve never had major issues with in-ear buds and they fit me well, but after extended use I do get some discomfort. That’s why I’ve always liked the idea of open earbuds — comfort without compromise.
Honestly, I never believed open earbuds could sound as good as traditional in-ears.
My wife has the Bose Ultra Open. They’re incredibly comfortable and the sound is good, but for me they lack that real bass punch and don’t quite go loud enough when you want to really feel the music.
Then the Opendots One came along.
These things absolutely smash the door down and say, “I’m here.”
The sound is crisp, rich and full of depth, with proper bass presence — not muddy, just powerful. Turn them up full blast and it’s immersive, yet the person sitting next to you hears nothing. That balance is seriously impressive.
I’m not usually one for writing reviews, but these are rarely off my ears unless I’m in bed.
Solid 5 stars from me.
And yes — for my ears — better than the Bose Ultra Open.
Can’t wait to see where they go next, because these will be tough to top.

I think the bone conduction ear phones are great and I have been recommending to all my friends I even bought my mother a pair she was amazed that she could use them without her hearing aids in great product
2026-02-15
When using two devices App crashes my Desktop and Control Buttons not working with this app
When I added a second Shokz OpenFit Pro with my OpenFit 2 on my Iphone button functions don’t function but they do function on Win desktop

Great device
Very good quality sound especially when in meetings. Not quite as good as in ear/over ear for listening to music but more than acceptable for me. Highly recommended
2026-01-28
Perfect for daily use
This is my second generation purchase - previously owned the aeroplex. The OpenRun2 is a major upgrade and worth the extra cost compared with the OpenRun. Apps allows to set equalizer presets for different scenarios. Seamless transfer to other device. Only downside is the charging - I would have preferred the magnetic charging method instead of the USBc.

Great headphones, poor Media player functionality
I love the headphones, however I listen to audiobooks when swimming. The built-in media player in the app doesn’t allow for timeline scrubbing (fast forward etc) nor does it support MP4 files to skip chapters. Why is such a universal and basic function missing??
2026-01-19
Sounds Good
App is easy to understand and use. Tabs are what they say are, and there are is no ambiguity to what selection choices are. Can definitely recommend
2026-01-19
10 out of 10
Excellent pair of headphones. Super comfortable and long battery life. Very happy !
2026-01-17
Loving them
Bought them for work more than anything as I have to still be able to hear what’s going on around me, while still listening to my music. Call quality is phenomenal and the battery life and recharge are amazing. I’ve had them on pretty much every day since I bought them. 10/10 recommend.
2025-12-26
Great headphones- let down by poor app playback controls
When using the app to setup/control the local play back on the open swim pro, it’s missing the ability to see/control playback in an audio file, making it difficult to listen to audiobooks/ podcasts. Would be awesome if this could be added in.
You have to listen to entire episodes/ chapters if your place is lost hard to find again.

Open run pro 2
Product Idea: Slim Charging Case for Shokz OpenRun Pro 2
Problem:
Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 headphones come with a bulky passive case and a separate charging cable. Users must carry both, which is inconvenient for sport, work, and travel.
Solution:
A slim protective carry case with an integrated short USB-C charging cable inside the case.
How it works:
- Headphones sit in a shaped protective cradle
- Internal flexible USB-C pigtail plugs directly into the headset
- Case has an external USB-C input
- User plugs the case into power to charge the headset without removing it
Key Benefits:
- No loose charging cable to carry
- Slim and pocketable
- Uses the headset’s existing charging port (low technical risk)
- No internal battery required (optional future version)
Target Market:
- Shokz OpenRun / OpenRun Pro users
- Runners, tradies, FIFO workers, gym users, travellers

Very happy
Best range for Bluetooth! Have tried many, these are far superior than anything else on the market. Quality is fantastic, just replaced my last pair that were over 2 years old and used everyday for 8-12 hours whilst working online. You will not find better! Don’t waste your money by trying to save and buy a cheaper inferior product, it will cost you more in the long run when you have to buy something else when they don’t work. You will not be disappointed with Shokz!
2025-11-07
Great for Work
Purchased these for work as I need to be able to hear what’s going on around me while still being able to take calls and listen to music. I’m constantly in and out of the office and multipoint pairing works well. Swaps almost seamlessly between my phone and laptop on teams calls. Can’t get them to pair to my Samsung TV no matter what I do. Overall great though.
2025-10-08
Open Fit 2 +
Mostly don’t know they are on until the phone gets a call or a notification.
Can still hear the real world around me with less anxiety about not being aware of warning noises or voices.
Great for listening to music and/or watching movies in bed without wires and without bothering my sleeping partner.
Excellent charge case that works on wireless charging pad.
Great for the work place with ability to pair to phone and computer simultaneously for quieter online meetings and general office environment for work colleagues.
Love the “find my earpiece” function!
Great for travelling
Great for relaxing
Great for working
Best all round hearing device We have ever experienced!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH

Super Comfortable and Great for Work
I absolutely love these Shokz headphones for my office use! They’re incredibly comfortable, even during long hours, and I barely notice I’m wearing them. The open-ear design lets me stay aware of my surroundings while still enjoying great sound quality. Perfect for calls, music, and focus time!
2025-09-07
Shocked by the Quality and Versatility of the Open Run Pro 2s
As a musician who’s active, I’ve been looking for set of headphones that enable me to get high quality audio with being in-ear, comfortable to wear for long periods of time, and giving me the ability to hear external sound which has been perfect for practicing vocals against a listening play list and backing track. It’s perfect for pitching and interacting with the music I’m listening without bothering others around me with a loud backing track. Really love these headphones for exercise (walking and riding my bike), taking phone calls and virtual meetings for work and for practicing singing between band rehearsals! Would highly recommend the Open Run Pro 2 headphones! The app enables me to set up these perfectly to my audio preferences easily on the run with very little effort! 👍🏻🤘🏻
2025-08-26
Wish I had bought some sooner
I am currently prepping for an overnight charity walk and wanted something that would last the 9-10 hour stretch but with an open ear or conduction style so I didn’t have the aching ears by the end from airpods or something similar.
I also saw benefits in the office being able to hear around me with tunes breaking the silence.
Im super happy with my purchase.
Ive also setup multiple device connections so my personal and work mobiles receive calls without me having to take them off to answer.
2025-08-11
Work well for swimming
I find they are a more than capable replacement for my 18 year old bone conductor “headphones” for swimming (if you know the brand you know). They are good for cycling with more awareness of what’s happening around you and don’t have the amplified wind noise that drives you nuts. All round they work well. The only negative is the kind of vibrate the skin next to the ears a little, it could get annoying.
2025-07-17
Exceptional product
I have previously had a pair of the OpenRun Pro headphones. After 3 years of using constantly for listening to music, phone calls etc, they broke…..through my own fault, I got them caught when taking them off and snapped one side. Definitely wanted another pair so went into local retailer. Looked at the range and after trying on the different models and experiencing the sound quality, I opted for the OpenFit - seperate left and right type. So far so good and love them. Like the idea of the charging case along with the different settings via the app.
2025-07-15
Perfect for Cycling - Safe, Comfortable, and Great Sound
I’ve been using Shokz OpenRun Pro for road cycling and they’re awesome. The open ear design lets me hear traffic clearly while still enjoying music or GPS directions. Super lightweight, comfy even on long rides, and the sound quality is much better than I expected. Battery lasts ages and charges fast too. High recommend for any cyclist who wants safety and sound together.
2025-05-22
More listening
Open ear for more listening - Shokz OpenFit 2 opens up all-day listening to playlists and favourite radio programs - while on a sun bed, walking the streets or building a house. The Open Ear concept does not block out the world around you, rather sets up the right balance to focus on your tunes but still hear someone saying “Hi”. Finally, say good by to wind noise from ANC devices when facing a head wind.
I’m enjoying this new experience.
2025-05-05
Shokz Open Run pro2
I’ve used these for a few months now and can confirm I’m very happy with my purchase. They are everything I had hoped they would be and more. I use them for running, walking and riding my bike. It’s great sound quality and allows you to still be aware of the occasional vehicles or other people approaching. I highly recommend. I’m also very impressed with the battery life having not needed to charge them for several hours of activity.
2025-04-28
Simple setup experience
After downloading the app, I registered my Shokz and within a minute I was ready to go. I also had to update the firmware, which took about 1 minute via my phone. Very impressed and was out the door running soon after. Recommend this to anyone!
2025-04-14
The best headphones ever!
I’ve been using Shokz bone conduction headphones for many years, and find them the most comfortable and easy to use. I’ve tried ear buds, and noise-cancelling headphones, but these are the lightest, most comfortable and secure of them all. I had my previous OpenRun head set for 6 years, and have just upgraded to OpenRun Pro 2. I like that I can change settings in the app, in order to get the best out of either music, or audiobooks.
I’ve recommended these to friends, and my husband is now using my old ones.
I highly recommend these to anyone. They’re not just for exercising, but also for those who wear hearing aids, or need to wear ear plugs in noisy work environments, or suffer with sensitive ear canals.
2025-04-12
Not my best purchase 😢
My beats broke and my salesman said try these. They are super light which worries me that I might not notice if one falls off.
The sound is great if you’re in a quiet place, definitely not good walking through busy streets and definitely not good on a plane. Which is a shame cause I travel for work but I simply can’t hear through them very well. I do feel the battery dies very fast compared to my beats. They don’t last a full day, I need to recharge at least once.
Am I glad I’ve swapped brands? Probably not :(
I returned them and bought more beats
2025-03-31
Open run pro 2
Very happy with these headphones! I use them for running with great awareness and they do go a lot louder than I expected! and at work with talk back radio, these are great for that!
I don’t use them in the gym tho as I like to drown out everything and just get in the zone!
All in all these are mint!! they do everything they are made for really well!
Cheers
2025-03-11
Fully Shoked!
I have found these great for running as they have excellent sound quality but still keep me connected to the outside world. I couldn’t find them one day and realised that they had gone through the wash with my run clothes! I let them dry out and they are still working perfectly! Very happy to have such great quality product! Go Shokz!

Lara’s Shokz - 2
Sensational! I wish I could sell them & get commission. Every person I’ve bought them for or has bought due to my recommendation loves them. The clarity of sound & conveniences being genuinely hands-free are a constant delight.
Love Shokz 💞
Only reason I bought 2nd pair is black flaps on airport security scanner knocked them off into machine & I wasn’t prepared to wait a week & pay $85- for their return so, I bought New Pro 2 & loves these more 💞💃 Lara
2025-02-25
Comfortable - secure - sound quality
These are the words I would think about regarding my Shokz headphones. Firstly - they never fall out or off so much so that I have been surprised when I have turned off my music or audio book to find a long time later that I am still wearing them. Of course they don’t do noise cancelling but the volume settings are such that these are my go to for walking - allowing important ambient sounds to filter through. And ….. I am very fussy about listening to high end classical music. I am very much NOT disappointed - they are wonderful. And, lastly, if you happen to have itchy dry ear canals and have an irresistible urge to dig a finger into your ear - these headphones will continue to provide wonderful audio on your temples while you deal with irritating ears.
2025-01-08
Awesome.
Very happy with these headphones. Bought the open fit 2 before I realised there was a swimming version, so now I have a pair of each! Very impressed with how easy the mp3 transfer is for the open swim model. And 32GB storage means less time shuffling songs on and off device. These are the best headphones for exercise I have ever had. And I’ve had (still got) Bose QC noise cancelling in-ear versions. They’re great too, but the bone conduction allowing me to hear my surroundings is a big plus.
2025-01-06
Excellent technology for safety and sound quality
I love the concept of bone conduction headphones so my ears remain free and I can safely hear my surroundings whilst listening to music. It’s really important when I’m outdoor running or traveling and wanting to remain aware. Adjusting the sound quality via the app makes a big difference and overall I love these. There’s a limitation to the maximum volume I can appreciate my music, given interference from my surroundings. A big fan overall.

I’m a mechanic and I’ve had a set of the original OpenRun for years and they’ve been absolutely excellent. They’re the only headset I can use and customs can actually hear me while I continue working.
I have recently purchased a set of OpenFit so I can use one at a time and be without the hoop around the back of my head as it is sometimes inconvenient.
I have downloaded the app this time around and it’s great to have a few different preset options for the controls although it would be nice to be able to have a bit more flexibility or custom option.
The app seems easy to use and reliable other than that.

Great product
I bought these for the gym as over ear headphones are hot and get in the way. I had one of the first sets of Shokz and lived them and these definitely don’t disappoint the sound is great and allows you to stay connected to the surroundings. I use them all the time now and only use my OE for flying as they have ANC. Battery life is great they are comfortable for use with glasses as well. Really good product.

Use them everywhere
These headphones are the best. The sound is clear and I can use them running and swimming. I love that I can load songs onto the headphones so I don’t need to take my phone on runs - also this is how I can listen when swimming.
I like that I can wear these and still hear ambient noise.
Another great feature is that my wife can use them without worrying about filthy ear wax.
Definitely recommend.

Love them
I bought these to listen to podcasts while swimming laps. I lose track of time and lap count, so it’s nice to check occasionally and realise I’ve done more than expected.
Easy to set up, easy to use. I have yet to figure out how to load audio books onto it but hopefully I will get there. Overall I am happy with this headset.

Game changer for busy working mums
As a busy working mum always on the go, the Shokz ProRun 2 has truly been a game-changer for me! These bone-conduction headphones allow me to enjoy my favorite music or podcasts while staying completely aware of my surroundings—a must when juggling kids, work, errands, and indoor/outdoor runs.
One of the standout features is the comfort. Unlike traditional earbuds, which can feel uncomfortable or even painful after extended use, these sit perfectly without pressing into my ears. Even at the highest volume settings, they don’t hurt or cause hearing imbalance, which is a big plus for long listening sessions.
The sound quality is surprisingly clear for open-ear technology, and I love how safe they feel when I’m outside—no more worrying about missing important sounds like traffic. When I’m running indoors and my child is sleeping, I am confident I can still hear him when he calls.
If you’re a multitasking mum or someone who values both safety and high-quality sound, the Shokz ProRun 2 is worth every penny. Highly recommend!

Great for walking
I swapped out my high end in ear noise cancelling earbuds for the open run pro mini. I did this due to a heart issue left my balance a little off so walking in a sound bubble was unsafe. My open runs are the best. I am able to listen to great sounds and still be present in my environment. I loved them so much I upgraded to the 2 and gave my first pair to my partner. We are able to walk together whilst listening to our own music and also talk. I would highly recommend any walker buy the bone conducive head phones which Shokz are the best I have bought for quality, sound and connectivity. So easy to use.

Good for swimming but complicated to load anything from an iPad or iPhone.
Great sound- especially while swimming.
It is quite complicated to upload music and podcasts using an iPad or iPhone.
I had to purchase a separate adaptor and even then it took a while to work out how to transfer files to the headset without a pc or laptop.
I eventually consulted a friend who is a specialist in using media files with apple products. We developed a complicated patch requiring the downloading of extra software to convert files.
It would be helpful if the manufacturers could develop and publish a step by step guide on how to do this.

Perfect
Love my new Shokz OpenFit. Wished I discovered then earlier.
PROs: no need to drop volume or pull them off my ears when someone talks to me, I’m still completely aware of my surroundings while listening to music or podcasts, easy to use functionality, great fit, great sound, long battery life, and the best feature of all (for me) is no more sweaty ears or ear canals causing ear infections from overuse.
CONs: not loud enough in very noisy environments but then again they weren’t designed for that and sometimes I don’t even know I have the earphones on, which is also a PRO because they are very comfortable.

Shokz are amazing!!
I’m so happy that I bought both openfit and openmove! I feel safe when getting to my car after my nursing shift. The headphones helps my anxiety when I’m in public. The sound is amazing and when taking phone calls it’s clear as day! I could never go back to any other headphones. Can’t wait till I save up for the swimming Shokz!! You won’t regret 😍

Nice fit, great for what I want them for
These headphones fit beautifully and I regularly forget I gave them in. I use them in an environment where I need to be able to gear ambient noise as well and they are great for that. I love the customizable equalizer on the app too. They’re great for home use to listen to audio books as well. The negatives for me are there not quite loud enough for me and how I like to listen to my music, and the bass can be a bit doughy if you’re working out while using them on and they get sweaty. Very minor issues for me and all in all I’m really happy with them.

Safety Security Comfort and Listening Pleasure
Shokz is most definitely a product worth Looking into if your after Quality Product at an affordable price. I bought a pair for my wife for her birthday as I was concerned for her safety while crossing busy roads on her way to work, unlike noise cancelling headphones that Totally block external noise these Shokz headphones totally blew my wife away with Not only sound quality but she feels totally safe being able to hear oncoming traffic..
My dear wife bought me a pair for Christmas and I too instantly fell in love with the sound quality while training at the Gym and being able to take calls with perfect sound quality 😎😎😎
I also wear a Baseball cap regularly and the Headphones are Absolutely Perfect 👌👌👌
Totally recommend these to Anyone and Everyone!! You won’t be disappointed
Thanks to the Developers

The Best
My absolute favorite Bluetooth headphones to date…and I’ve had a lot! Super comfortable with great sound quality. The fact they don’t sit in your ear means they stay clean and free of wax and allow you to hear what’s going on around you (as long as volume is not too loud) while still having more than enough volume to hear music clearly while on busy streets.
Battery also lasts quite a long time.
The only thing I wish they were able to do is have volume control and skip songs (fwd/rev) at the same time.
At the moment you can only do one or the other at a time.
Other than that they are absolutely perfect👌🏾

Using for WFH
WFH and being on meetings for sometimes hours a day, over the ears get hot and uncomfortable, in ear give me earache, now we have Shokz, very comfortable wear for hours with no fatigue, sounds pretty good for transmitting the audio through your head
Can get a bit buzzy if they are up loud
Keen to try in the data center as can wear with earplugs and still hear fine
Very happy and recommend for this task

Top marks for staying in place and comfort, but…
These are the perfect solution to problematic ear buds that never stay in…forever repositioning or pushing back in. However, if you are an audiophile, don’t get your hopes up for sound quality. Bone conduction technology isn’t anywhere close to what you’d get from ear buds or traditional headphones. Just received these and the jury is still out, but at the moment I’m sure going out for runs will be better having something that doesn’t slip out, especially when sweating. Not sure I’ll get lost in the music as much though.

Not as expected!
I will start with the bad! Unfortunately there is almost no bass at all - the sound is rather dull. I was expecting far more considering the “TurboPitch” technology. My standard Apple plug in headphones have more bass! The volume is also way too low - I have good hearing and the maximum volume is barely above normal conversation. Now for some good. They are comfortable and the controls are simple and easy to operate. The sound is crystal clear. The battery life is great. I was expecting so much more from these but despite the comfort and easy controls I am very disappointed at the sound level. I think I might have to return them and seek an alternative option.

AWESOME
I was a bit sceptical when my wife showed me these, but from the moment I put them on I knew I had to have some. So “Self-Santa” bought me the Pro at Boxing Day sales. I love that you don’t have to remove when talking to people face to face, just turn music off. Also I was running a business which required me to answer the phone all through the day, from fully charged, about 50 phone calls and listening to the cricket in between, still had 65% battery at the end of the day. Very Happy 😃
