SHOKZNew OpenFit 2 Open-Ear Headphones, True Wireless Bluetooth Earphones with Microphone, Earhook Earbuds with 48 Hours of Playtime, Fast Charging, IP55 Water-Resistant, with Carrying Bag, BlackCarbonfree Certified

I've been pretty disappointed with AirPods and other in-the-ear bluetooth headphones. The reasons?1. They don't sound good. Bass is weak or non-existent.2. They don't fit well. Even with multiple sizes of ear cushions, they are apt to fly out of your ear.3. Dismal battery life ... maybe 2 hours.4. No ability to customize the frequency response.But these Shockz are great.1. They sound quite good. Good bass response and nice, clear highs. They have separate low and high frequency drivers ... that likely has a lot to do with it.2. They fit comfortably around your ear. I forget I have them on.3. Very good battery life ... in the order of 8 hours.4. The app provides a 5 band equalizer function that really helps with the sound as well.About the only negatives are:1. Since they are not an in-ear design, they don't provide a lot of isolation (also a positive, as you can hear what is going on around you).2. Not an Apple product, so you can't use the "Find My Devices" option to find them if lost.

I’ve tried several Shokz models, including the OpenRun and OpenDots One, but the OpenFit 2 strikes the ideal balance between comfort, stability, and sound quality. Here’s why they’ve become my top choice:1. Secure Yet Comfortable FitThe OpenFit 2 lands perfectly between the OpenRun and OpenDots in terms of fit. They have the stability of the OpenRun’s ear hooks but avoid the in-ear sensation of the OpenDots, making them much more comfortable for long use. Pairing them with sunglasses (which I always do while cycling) makes them even more secure.2. Superior Audio QualityBoth the OpenFit 2 and OpenDots deliver significantly better sound quality than the OpenRun. The OpenFit 2, in particular, shines with richer bass and overall clarity. They also get much louder than the OpenRun or even the OpenRun Pro, making them perfect for noisy environments or when you want your music to really hit.3. Sweat-Resistant and DurableWith an IP55 rating, they’re slightly more durable than the OpenDots (IP54), and they handle heavy sweat during cardio sessions effortlessly.4. Practical and User-Friendly Design• They’re larger than the OpenDots, which makes them harder to lose or misplace.• The physical buttons are a big improvement over the OpenDots’ touch controls, which became unreliable during sweaty workouts.• They don’t move or irritate when wearing a hood, and they avoid the “earring” look of the OpenDots, which is a minor but nice aesthetic improvement.Final ThoughtsThe OpenFit 2 is the perfect choice for those who want better sound quality than the OpenRun while maintaining a stable, comfortable fit. They blend the best features of the OpenRun and OpenDots, making them ideal for everything from running and cycling to gym workouts and casual listening. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a reliable, versatile option!

I got these headphones on April 15th and I LOVE THEM thus far!Charging: I haven’t charged the case in more than 2-3 weeks which is amazing! They also charge extremely fast once you put them back in the case.Connection to phone: They connect well throughout bigger houses that I’ve cleaned which is always a plus.Comfort: Very comfy! A little hard to get used to as first but again, I love them. I will say that once I take them off it almost feels like I still have them on my ears… could be just me tho.Function: Phone calls are very clear on both ends. I’m able to hear music and people/surroundings perfectly without the volume going over half way which is great for work environments. I kind of wish they had a button to adjust the noise on both ear buds, but you can use the voice command for that. To do that you will need the app. The app also shows how much battery is left on all three (case and each ear bud) and you can change the EQ Modes (bass, treble, etc).Overall: Again, they work great! Don’t have cords tugging on you all the time which is what I wanted to get away from and didn’t want my ear to hurt with buds IN them. Since the sit on the ear it’s not bad at all. Can’t wait to try and exercise with them. I’ve gone on walks and worked with them but haven’t done any running or burpees. I have a feeling they will hold through that though! Worth the money honestly.
