Aeropex (Rebranded as Shokz OpenRun) - Open-Ear Bluetooth Bone Conduction Sport Headphones - Sweat Resistant Wireless Earphones for Workouts and Running - Built-in Mic

Alright, first off, do not get the Trekz Air. These are MUCH better and worth the extra money. Anyways, here goes. This thing is amazing. The battery lasts me a whole day of gaming. The open ear design really helps. I can perfectly hear my surroundings while hearing my music or game audio crystal clear. The button is also conveniently placed, as I can easily press it with my shoulder if I have full hands. This thing is REALLY comfortable. I occasionally forget I'm even wearing it. The microphone. For how small it is and how far from your mouth it is, it truly impresses me how it delivers such clear sound. Theres only one thing that isn't the best. It isn't enough to bring the overall review down by one star, but it's still not perfect. It's the audio. More specifically the bass. If you like listening to bass boosted music or dubstep, this isn't for you. Anything other than that is shockingly clear. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who is looking for a headset that won't break the bank. It's water resistant (I could even shower with them on), has crystal clear audio, even with the open ear design, connects easily, has a long lasting battery, is extremely comfortable and is very lightweight.

This is a very good product. IU use it while I'm outside doing yard work, and the sound quality is amazing

I absolutely love them. I have recommended them a few times. Have had them for like 2~3 years and I'm still in love

I purchased these specifically so I had something to wear while at work. Naturally, I need to be able to hear my surroundings, but having music helps me focus & stay productive. These are fulfilling that purpose quite well. I was surprised at the sound quality. I was certain this bone-conduction thing was just a gimmick. Turns out, even with ear plugs in, the sound is rock solid. The bass is a little below average, but given the size of the headphones, it's not surprising. Still, decent enough to make for some good listening through my shift. The ear plugs that come with it are generic & useless. My loop ear plugs work quite well with them, & I think it would be beneficial for a partnership with them so loop ear plugs are included with the headphones. Despite my mild complaints, these headphones are worth every last penny. I bought this pair specifically because they were advertised as having an 8 hour battery life. This is just enough for a shift at work & I figured as the battery ages, I can still charge them on my lunch break. Well, it turns out the 8 hour battery life was false advertising. On the first full charge, the battery lasted 16.5 hours. I couldn't believe such a small battery could hold a charge for twice what it's advertised to do! If you're at all on the fence about these, take the plunge. You will not be disappointed.

Great product. Unique magnetic charging port, which in its own way is well designed and kind of a cool feature. A common connection, like USB-C, would've been so much better (hence the 4 stars). I wish they would make a slimmer version to fit inside a motorcycle helmet. This way motorcycle riders can avoid inevitably going deaf by using noise blocking earplugs, and still be able to connect to their phones for clear phone calls or music companionship. I hope Shokz, the manufacturer would take note and come up with something for motorcycle riders soon 🤞

I mainly use this at the gym and when I'm running outdoors. These are connected to my mobile phone for the most part and plays the music I stream from Spotify pretty clearly. I can still hear ambient sounds good like cars sounds when I'm running outdoors or if someone is asking how many sets I have at a machine at the gym. My ear doesn't get sweaty and funky though since these wrap comfortably around my head and just above my ears. Sometimes I forget that I'm wearing them. You'll feel some vibration near your temples if you play music with bass but it's no big deal to me and I got used to it. These are comfortable to use while gaming and for general computer use too. I use them for 1-2 hours at a time before I charge but I feel like I can probably get a few more hours of usage before having to recharge.

I practically forget that I'm wearing these headphones half the time. I was looking for a good set of running headphones, since my earbuds kept falling out, but I put them on during my last painting project and at one point turned my music off for a conversation and I forgot that I had them on. I started wearing them more and more around the house or running errands, and they don't really get uncomfortable like most headphones. The best thing is they stay put. Running with these is absolutely wonderful. I don't have to worry about them falling out/off of my ears. My ears are also open, so I can listen to music but also hear my surroundings and stay alert, and I can adjust volume using my phone or the volume buttons on the earpiece. The only complaint I have is with the charger cable. The cable is extremely short and the lack of an outlet adapter makes charging the headset very inconvenient. The headset itself works fantastic though.

Bone conduction headphones provide some advantages over traditional in-ear headphones primarily during outdoor excercise activities where you need to be aware of ambient sounds for safety. I use bone conduction headphones when running, cycling, and working out. I used to use Vidonn bone conduction headphones and was pretty pleased with them except for a few issues that have been addressed with the Aftershokz headphones. The Vidonn headphones had average sound for bone conduction headphones, it was ok; but not nearly as good as a nice pair of normal headphones. The Aftershokz sound quality is superior to the Vidonn's, sounds good and is on par with average traditional headphones (not high end audiophile headphones). The Vidonn's have a charging port with a rubber seal flap which is an entry point for moisture. During long runs or rides, the Vidonn controls would begin to act wacky impacting streaming play. The Aftershockz are fully sealed and use a magnetic induction charger which prevents moisture issues. The Aftershokz are also extremely light and small with a high quality soft rubberized surface - once I put them on, I forget they are there. Battery life has been fine and there are notifications when running low. I have been very pleased with these Aftershokz and would recommend them.
