Title: Super comfortable, features exactly as described
Review: I've waited to review until I'd had and used these a good bit to be able to give my honest review and after a month of use I can say that I love these and would absolutely recommend them and buy them again.I have never found a pair of ear buds that don't cause me extreme pain in my ears, neck, shoulders, and head. I've tried all manner of ear buds, from super cheap to really expensive, and these are the first set of ear buds that I can wear all day without any pain whatsoever. It took a little getting used to the way that they fit because they did sort of feel like they were on the verge of falling out when I first got them, but this is just due to a different design than I've ever experienced and they're actually quite secure and not going anywhere. I do find myself forgetting that I have them on and will walk around with nothing playing, wearing them for hours sometimes. Even as a glasses wearer, I don't find myself having any problems with comfort or secure fit.The sound quality is honestly the best I've experienced in all of the ear buds I've tried. I'm super impressed with the bass they're able to achieve, and it is sort of a "sound is in your head" kind of experience. I've used them for listening to music, watching YouTube, watching TV shows and movies, and have never felt that I needed to adjust the EQ. They really just sound great for all uses, in my opinion.I love the way that you put them into pairing mode - I did have to look up a YouTube video on how to do it because I struggled to understand the instructions provided, but it's actually really easy and reliable, and one of the easier pairing experiences I've had. I have a few pairs of headphones/ear buds that are a major pain to pair and fall out of being paired randomly, and I've had none of those issues with these.I haven't had any issues with the touch controls not working right, though I don't use these for running and it seems the majority of reviewers having issues with the touch controls are runners who experience sweat, so that could be why I've had no issues. I'm a stay at home mom who works part time from home and home schools my kid, so my typical use of these is while sitting at a computer working, or while walking around my home doing school or chores.They're not super noise canceling and they don't have the longest battery life but that is exactly as advertised. Being open ear fit they couldn't possibly be noise canceling (though they do actually drown out most sound pretty well if the volume is up high), which is actually what I need in ear buds as a stay at home mom who needs to be able to hear my kid at all times. I don't want to give these a low review on noise cancellation or battery life because they're clearly advertised as not being noise canceling, and also clearly advertised that the ear buds themselves only have a 7 hour battery life and the case has a 28 hour battery life, so it would seem unfair to lower their rating over something that you're advertised before even buying. Maybe in future models they'll be able to increase the battery life, but until then it is totally fine with me as someone who is home pretty much at all times and able to recharge without issue.I am super happy with these, and so pleased to have finally found ear buds I can wear without pain. After years of searching, I finally found a pair that works for me and actually sounds great, too.

Title: AWESOME Sound!!
Review: These are the best earphones that I have ever owned. I promise you, the sound is amazing. I have had them all: Sony, Tone, Apple and Bose. The sound is crisp and clear. I mainly listen to music and I can hear all of the instruments regardless of the type of music. When listening to talk radio, I can hear the host shuffling papers in the background. I love the equalizer to fit my specific listening preferences. These ear phones are so very comfortable and light, I hardly know that they are there.I had read some other reviews prior to purchasing them that the volume wasn't loud enough. Trust me...it is. They are plenty loud and more than enough and I haven't had them to their maximum volume setting.I am looking forward to using these while walking, driving in my car and doing things around the house/yard.Get yourself a pair, you'll be glad that you did.

Title: Sincere, unpaid/unsponsored, love for these!!
Review: Edited with use⦠and to *try* to be more concise.Firstly, itâs important to note that I am not an audiophile. The primary reason for purchasing these was to use them for WORK (WFH, need to be able to hear clients, have them hear me with no background noise, take meetings etc) with the secondary reason being casual listening at home while Iâm scrolling my phone, cleaning, etc etc etc. So if youâre wanting to know whether or not these are Gods gift to audio, youâre on the wrong review!Fit: Iâm starting here because it seems to be what everyone complained the most about in the reviews. HOWEVER, I think the fit is absolutely perfect, incredible - all the positive descriptive words. Each bud is as LIGHT as a feather. I needed to be able to make sure I could wear these for extended periods of time without experiencing discomfort⦠and I have! Since I received them I hardly take them off. I have tried sleeping in them and while discomfort wasnât the issue, the touch controls were triggered by my pillow so it wasnât functional for nighttime listening (sleep stories are a game changer). Otherwise, I work in them, I clean in them, I play games in them⦠everything. They stay in, they feel secure though most of the time I forget theyâre even there. More than anything Iâm so freaking glad they donât go IN my ear canal. I have always avoided headphones because I hate the ear canal ones (gross) and the big bulky ones just are not it.App: The app you can control these with is perfect, and Iâll be including some screenshots in my review. First of all, HAVING an app I can use to manage them is amazing. I like that itâs easy to figure out and doesnât throw an overwhelming amount of options or customizations at you. You can;- Monitor battery life for each individual bud AND the charging case (freaking love);- Adjust the audio to your liking (full EQ customization + preset options like vocal or bass boost);- Set up multipoint pairing. SO happy with this function, I canât even explain. It took some figuring out thoughâ¦more later;- And customize controls. This was probably my favorite feature, as I wasnât a huge fan of the default options and I was able to change the controls to what works for ME!*My ONLY critique, and I cannot explain how insignificant this is in the grand scheme, is that I wish in the control customization that I had the option to switch which ear was volume up and which was volume down. IDK how to explain it other than my brain doesnât process volume down being on the left side. Maybe throw it in the suggestion box for the next model, which I will definitely be buying regardless.Battery: Itâs great. I put these puppies to use, for all the reasons mentioned above. They get me through my workday and an evening of listening to music before needing to charge. I say needing to charge, but even then theyâre still around 20-25%. It feels like I get endless charges out of the case, and they charge quick.Audio: Again, not an audiophile. With that being said, I think they sound great. The EQ customization is awesome, I prefer to just go with one of the preset options. On that note, Iâm glad they have the preset options and I think theyâre great. I have been listening to my music on treble boost with no complaints. Love being able to quickly switch to the vocal option for work. Bass boost at the highest of volumes sounds a little tinny but otherwise they sound like normal headphones.Mic: So far, no complaints. I was very worried about my clients and colleagues being able to pick up on background noise because of my dogs, but Iâve asked several people on the other end if they could hear anything other than me and they all said no. Everyone has said they can only hear me, and I sound normal + clear.Multi-point pairing: LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. This was actually a welcome surprise, I didnât realize they had the feature until I received them. Iâm not sure if Iâve captured the full potential here yet or not, but this is a really handy feature for how I personally use them. Being that I need to be able to pair them to both my personal phone and my work laptop, this makes it so seamless. I can easily connect or disconnect to one, the other, or both at the same time if I want. This allows me to toggle back and forth between work and personal activities so easily. Itâs so good.TLDR; Get these!

Review: I've struggled over the years to find good lightweight earbuds that produce an overall good sound quality while providing comfort and stability. These earbuds were a match made in heaven.SOUND: It's not the same level of sound quality as you'd get from traditional over-ear studio quality headphones (i.e. Sennheiser 280 pro), but compared to other earbuds - both open-ear and in-ear style - it exceeded expectation. The app allows you to choose from some EQ presets and create your own custom EQ presets so you can tweak the EQ bands to your liking, which is a great feature.COMFORT: The nice soft rubber hoops that go around the ear are very gentle against the skin (I have sensitive skin, so I was pleased with that). They're sturdy enough to keep these buds in place even when moving/exercising. They're easy to just keep on as you go about your day, which is the first for me - I've had other earbuds before but my ears would always end up feeling sore after an hour of wearing them. With the OpenFit, I can keep them in for hours without feeling the urge to take them out.STABILITY: Their design is flawless - they fit nice and snug into the antihelix of the ear and loop around the back of the ear to keep them safe and secure. No issues!VALUE: They're more expensive than budget brands while less expensive than other highly rated open-ear options, making the price point reasonable. I was lucky enough to have purchased them while they were on sale and selling for close to the same price as the Openfit Air model, but I still recommend them at full price as I believe they're worth the investment, especially if you're like me and can't do in-ear headphones and are looking for a durable, quality option for exercise and/or daily life.OVERALL: Best open-ear headphones I've ever owned, I absolutely love them and recommend them to everyone.

Review: Ces écouteurs sont vraiment pratiques et utiles. Tout en gardant un lien vers le monde extérieur, on peut écouter ce que l'on veut sans s'abîmer le tympan et sans avoir de douleurs dans le pavillon ou le conduit de l'oreille. J'avais acheté l'ancien modèle avec la barre qui reliait les deux écouteur mais je préfère la flexibilité de ceux-ci.Cette marque fait d'excellents produits et je suis passé d'écouteurs de grandes marques (Sony, Bose...) à SHOKZ sans hésiter. Phrase bateau mais réelle : l'essayer c'est l'adopter.

Review: Nachdem ich bisher die Shokz Open Run mit Bügel kannte und schon super fand, da ich es nicht haben kann, wenn beim Sport meine Ohren zu sind, habe ich nun diese Bügellosen Shokz getestet. Ich war etwas skeptisch, da sie augenscheinlich erstmal sehr locker sitzen - wie soll das beim Sport halten?!Dann war ich aber selber überrascht, es hält wirklich, sie sitzen auch wenn man den Kopf nach unten wirft o. ä.Somit definitiv eine Empfehlung für jemanden, der beim Sport oder auch sonst Musik oder auch anderen am Ohr benötigt, aber es nicht im Ohr haben möchte oder auch zum Telefonieren die In Ear-Varianten nicht gut haben kann.

Review: Auricolari sportivi di alta qualità leggeri, pare non averli, con qualità audio eccellente nonostante siano semplicemente appoggiati al padiglione auricolare (open-ear). Materiali di ottima.qualità , e durata della batteria eccellente. Molto stabili anche durante la corsa. Unica pecca il prezzo piuttosto alto

Review: Earbudsen sitter bra och är bekväma, bra ljud vid musiklyssnande tyvärr något sämre ljudnivå vid samtal.
