SHOKZ OpenFit Air - Open-Ear Headphones, True Wireless Earbuds, Water Resistant, Secure Earhooks for Daily Use, Black

I’ve had these things for about two years now and I still love them. I wear these things constantly. Genuinely I wear these things more than I care to admit. I wear them during the day walking around the house and I wear them to sleep at night. The sound quality is very good of course but the things I really love about them are the practicalities that make a big difference when you really use your headphones a lot. They fit great and I can wear them for hours without discomfort. They are so light on your ears that can sometimes forget that I’m still wearing them. The case soooo much better than the no name Chinese headphones. The way the ear pieces rest one over the other makes them compact, and yet if you want to take out just one or the other, you can put your thumb on one to hold it in place and pull the other out with no problem. Then when you want to put them back in you can just drop them into place and the magnets really grab them and almost force them into the correct position for charging. And the overall fit and finish is noticeably better than the cheapies. These are absolutely not the cheapest over the ear headphones you can find, but for me they’re also absolutely worth the money. The funny part is I almost never wear both of them at once. I use them during the day to do things like listen to NPR while I do my morning routine, or have a podcast going while I do my chores. I double tap to stop what I’m listening to as soon as someone wants to talk to me and then when I return to my task I just double tap again to start my podcast. At night I wear one side and sleep on the other and during the night if and when I wake up to use the bathroom or something (see how often YOU have to use the bathroom at night when your my age), I switch sides. It’s easy to do night because the case really grabs the headphones and pulls them into the right charging position. Especially if you use them one at a time like I do and charge the other when not in use, you will never have to worry about battery life. It’s been a couple years now like I said and the battery life is still great!

These are on the pricey side but they have great sound quality and spatial awareness. You do sacrifice good bass but you gain the ability to easily hear what’s around you. I’m able to go running or workout and easily be able to have a conversation with others. Unless you’re in a quiet room, you won’t hear the sound bleed out. They sit comfortably and don’t move even when running or working out.

Way back in 2017, I purchased a pair of the OG Aeropex headphones before they rebranded their company and brand lines. I think today's equivalent would be the Shokz Open Run. Anyway, I absolutely loved those headphones; they were my daily driver for everything from chores and yard work to biking and even driving as my vehicles does not have BT. The battery was still lasting more than 5 hours per charge, the sound hadnt changed... just wonderful. Then why did I 1) decide to try the open air and 2) why did i need new headphones? Turns out, as good as the Aeropex are, they're no match for a 6 month old puppy (see images). RIP Aeropex. I've had these OpenFit Air's for about 12 hours now. I've used them in three different common for me situations: driving, a work call, and working in the yard. Sound quality - Better than the Aeropex. The sound quality is higher, but you dont give up any of the awareness that i loved so much with the bone induction tech. - Volume was a little mixed. One of the podcasts I was listening too was a little too low, but music/calls were fine. I think it was more their mixing than the headphones - As they are not intended to be the highest fidelity / best sound reproduction buds, I dont review them as such. They wont win anything there. That said, they're more than fine for you if you're going in with the understanding that these are for being active, for hearing the world around you AND what is playing in your ear. IF you have those expectations, they're great. Fit / Comfort - For my ear, they fit perfectly. Not loose, not snug - they dont feel like they're going to fall out at all. - They're much lighter weight and easier on my ear. I've already forgotten they're on twice. If these had a battery that lasted 12 hours, I could easily have them on my ear all day and not feel a difference. That should tell you something. For comparison, I thought the Aeropex were decent and I could wear them for 2-3 hours without fatigue Controls - I'll admit, I havent yet RTFM, so this is me attempting to intuitively figure it out. - Pairing was super easy, didnt even need to long press/wacky tap or anything to enter pairing mode, it just did it out of the box. - They turn on and connect automatically, like my airpods do, nice. (I sometimes had to twiddle the Aeropex) - I have yet to figure out how to turn the volume up/down - Double tapping on the left bud seems to play/pause whatever you're listening to - There's something you can do with a long press, it makes the bud beep, but it's not intuitive - After I RTFM I'll likely understand more, but they're not the most intuitive (both the Aeorpex and Apple Air Pods are better in this reguard) Overall... I love them. I truly hope they last as long or longer than my last pair of Shokz headphones. Will update if things change!

I have super small ears. To the point where the smallest bud provided in ear bud packs is still too big, so open ear is really the only way for me to have something low profile and comfortable. So far, these are great! For open ear, these have good sound quality. For those who don't know what "good for open ear" really means, I'd say the sound is slightly worse than my 5-year-old Plattan ADV Wireless headphones. They have some sound leakage, I can hear it from the table in a quiet room when volume is 50% or more. The speakers get loud enough to hurt my ears, so in an environment with some white noise I normally use them at 30-40%. Took a star off because they're still too big for my ears lol. They wiggle around a little when I shake my head, but if I really try to knock them off, my glasses fall off first, so I'd consider them very secure, it's just a little annoying that they aren't snug. And because they aren't snug, the weight is resting on only a few points of contact, which prevents them from having that "weightless" feel I was hoping for. However, they are very light and I could wear them all day, and they don't interfere with my glasses. I can still hear the world around me, so these are perfect for listening in public or whenever you want to be aware. Lastly, the part that is supposed to rest inside the ear touches the ear the same way that a slipping ear bud does, so it may take a bit of retraining yourself to know that they aren't falling out.

I have used these headphones for a year now, and could not recommend them more highly. These headphones have performed reliably in multi-hour sessions the majority of days since I purchased them. The ability to hear your surroundings (by choice, you can still raise the volume enough to drown out noise if you want) is invaluable in a multitude of situations. I for example, run often, and prefer to be able to hear traffic. A friend who also purchased these listens to podcasts while still being able to hear his child. Beyond situational awareness, I also find these headphones more comfortable than earbuds, as your ear canal is unblocked. You can honestly forget you are wearing them occasionally. Finally, the sound quality is incredibly responsive, and I find that I do not feel as if I'm "missing out" on the ends of the audio spectrum while listening.

I love the fact that I can hear what’s going on around me as well as perfect clarity through the headphone. Quality is top tier so far. So comfortable that I fell asleep with one on the other night because I forgot it was even there. They weigh nearly nothing. Only thing I don’t like is that I can’t have full control on one side or the other. The tap feature is subject to different sides. I needed these specifically for work to be able to answer calls from my boss because my hands are always busy (restaurant/bar management) & I can only use one because I have a radio headset on one ear at all times. Other than that, I love them!

Fit is nice they stay in place at the gym and on runs. I've got larger ears and don't have the bump to be able to wear normal ear buds so this was nice! Only gripe is they dig into the upper ridge of my ear after a few hours but until that point I honestly forget I'm wearing them and only really notice once i take them off. (probably my large ears again so ymmv) Sound is decent, feels like you've got speakers a foot or so from your head. They don't get super loud but being I have bigger ears its possible that they just don't get close enough. The bass is pretty light and goes away as the volume goes up (just a quirk with open buds, The nothing ear opens do way better with sound though if they fit you and are in your budget) Mic is super clear for calls even when things are kind of loud around you, fairly impressive Controls This is my big gripe, you get two actions per side. double tap and press and hold. could be okay if i could pick which each side does per action but you are limited to what options available. Press and hold is default volume and takes ages to turn up or down. the double tap for play pause is about all its got going for it. Find myself more tethered to my phone for volume and tracks and assistant actions than I want to be at the gym or out and about. Case. A bit thick, no wireless charging only type c and is that soft touch material that will peel and or feel sticky after a while. otherwise does its job holding the bud securely and charging them up quick. battery life's spot on about 6-7 hours of playback (been great for work and work outs so far) and charge up about an hour of playback after about 5-8 mins in the case. app Basic eq, multipoint pairing (my favorite feature on these so far) and firmware updates. nothing special but enough to get the job done. Picked them up for about 100 and they've been good. if they can update the controls id easily make them 4 star and would be a go to recommendation to friends for the price for a set of open ear buds.

I had the original Aftershokz Aeropex bone conduction headphones but grew tired of the back band when wearing helmets so thought I’d give these a try. I couldn’t be happier. They sit right on your ear and although aren’t bone conduction, had a nice sound quality, good volume, comfortable and still let you hear outside noises. I haven’t had to worry about the battery life because they charge back up once you put them back in the case. And don’t get me started on how cute the pink color is. I love the metallic pink accent on it as well. It’s easy to tap to change the volume, pause and skip songs. The app lets you customize those gestures as well. It even comes with a carrying pouch to protect the case. These are the cheaper option from Shokz and despite not having been able to compare sound clarity, I’m happy with these and the battery life for half the price.

muy buenos, los recomiendo

Nachdem ich die SHOKZ OpenFit Air nun ausgiebig im Alltag getestet habe, bin ich vor allem von einem beeindruckt: Man vergisst sie wirklich. Während viele Kopfhörer irgendwann anfangen zu drücken, ist das Konzept hier konsequent auf „Air“ – also Leichtigkeit – ausgelegt. 1. Tragekomfort: Der „Air-Earhook“ macht den Unterschied Shokz nutzt hier einen extrem feinen Bügel aus einer Ni-Ti-Gedächtnislegierung (0,75 mm dünn!). Passform: Der Bügel ist so flexibel, dass er sich jeder Ohrform anpasst, ohne zu klemmen. Besonders als Brillenträger ist das ein Segen, da der Bügel so dünn ist, dass er sich den Platz hinter dem Ohr problemlos mit dem Brillenbügel teilt. Gewicht: Mit nur 8,7 g sind sie federleicht. Das tropfenförmige Design sorgt zudem dafür, dass der Schwerpunkt so liegt, dass sie auch bei schnellen Bewegungen nicht verrutschen. 2. Klangqualität: Natürlichkeit durch DirectPitch™ Die Klangwiedergabe erfolgt über die DirectPitch-Technologie. Das bedeutet, der Schall wird präzise in den Gehörgang geleitet, ohne dass etwas im Ohr steckt. Audio-Profil: Der Sound ist extrem klar und ausgewogen. Stimmen in Podcasts klingen so nah und echt, als würde die Person neben einem stehen. OpenBass™ Air: Für ein offenes System ist das Bassfundament überraschend solide. Ein spezieller Algorithmus sorgt dafür, dass die tiefen Frequenzen nicht verloren gehen, was der Musik eine schöne Wärme verleiht. Privatsphäre: Trotz der offenen Bauweise dringt erstaunlich wenig Schall nach außen. In einer ruhigen Büroumgebung hört der Kollege am Nachbartisch erst etwas, wenn man die Lautstärke wirklich ungesund hochdreht. 3. Telefonieren & Mikrofone Hier punkten die OpenFit Air mit gleich vier Mikrofonen. ENC (Noise Cancellation): Die KI-Geräuschunterdrückung filtert Hintergrundgeräusche (wie Wind oder Tastaturgeklapper) laut Hersteller um bis zu 96,5 % heraus. In meinen Tests wurde ich selbst beim Gehen an einer belebten Straße immer klar und deutlich verstanden. 4. Akku & Konnektivität Laufzeit: Mit 6 Stunden am Stück (und insgesamt 28 Stunden mit dem Case) kommt man locker durch den Tag. Schnellladen: Wenn es mal schnell gehen muss: 10 Minuten im Case reichen für etwa 2 Stunden Musik. Multipoint-Pairing: Ein echtes Highlight im Jahr 2026 ist das nahtlose Wechseln zwischen zwei Geräten. Ich kann am Laptop ein Video schauen und sofort einen Anruf am Handy entgegennehmen, ohne manuell umschalten zu müssen. Pro: ✅ Überragender Langzeit-Tragekomfort (besonders für Brillenträger) ✅ Kristallklare Sprachqualität bei Telefonaten ✅ IP54-zertifiziert (schweißresistent und staubgeschützt) ✅ Sehr stabile Bluetooth 5.2 Verbindung mit Multipoint ✅ Natürliches Klangbild ohne Druckgefühl im Ohr Contra: ❌ Kein kabelloses Laden (nur USB-C) ❌ Die Touch-Bedienung erfordert am Anfang etwas Übung ❌ Bauartbedingt kein aktives Noise Cancelling (ANC) – man hört die Umgebung immer mit Fazit: Die SHOKZ OpenFit Air sind die idealen Kopfhörer für alle, die eine natürliche Wahrnehmung ihrer Umwelt brauchen – sei es im Büro, beim Yoga oder beim Spaziergang mit dem Hund. Sie bieten eine fantastische Balance aus Technik und Komfort, ohne das Ohr zu belasten. Wer „Earbuds-Müdigkeit“ kennt, wird dieses Modell lieben! War diese Rezension hilfreich für dich?

These are so comfortable, they fit on my ears and don't interfere with my glasses. Great sound and easy connectivity.

Très bonne expérience avec ces écouteurs. La connexion est stable, le son est clair et ils sont confortables même sur une longue durée d’utilisation. Le fonctionnement est simple et fiable au quotidien, sans problème particulier depuis l’achat. La qualité de fabrication est sérieuse et l’ensemble donne une impression de produit bien conçu. La marque inspire confiance, avec un produit cohérent par rapport au prix demandé. Je recommande sans hésitation.

Strongly suggest you do not buy these. I've used these headphones 6-7 times over the last 2 months, for 30-minutes at a time (running!). One of the earphones constantly disconnects from bluetooth, and runs out of battery after 30 minutes of usage. Charging, disconnecting and then reconnecting does not fix the problem.
