Minimizing humor aside, situational awareness is very important to me, if I feel like I can't hear I feel unsafe. The situational awareness of these makes it seem like you're in the car with the radio playing. It is also great because I have three kids and can only listen to the nature cat theme song so many times before my brain starts flipping breakers, so to speak.I have terrible ADHD (autism is a spectrum disorder because when you're autistic, you don't just have autism!) so I apologize for any incomplete thoughts.

Shokz Open Fit Review, Model: T910Overall: For an open-ear set of earbuds, which is exactly what I needed in my office and home environment, these have a great sound – much better, in fact, than I thought they would have. I had expected a sound similar to my AfterShokz bone conduction headphones, but the sound is so much fuller with pretty decent bass, which is configurable with the equalizer in app.I had my reservations about purchasing these because of their “premium” price (even though they were 20% off), but with the return policy on the Shokz site, I took the chance. I can say I will NOT be returning these for anything other than a warranty issue, should it arise. I have no regrets.Fit: The fit took a few tries to get used to, but after the first day I had ... MoreShokz Open Fit Review, Model: T910Overall: For an open-ear set of earbuds, which is exactly what I needed in my office and home environment, these have a great sound – much better, in fact, than I thought they would have.

I can say I will NOT be returning these for anything other than a warranty issue, should it arise. I have no regrets.Fit: The fit took a few tries to get used to, but after the first day I had no problem moving them securely into place. You just have to understand how the sound is designed to flow from the earbud to your ear canal. After that, you know exactly how to fit them to your ear. I can’t shake these out of my ears without hurting my neck, so that is good.Sound Quality: Remember, this earbud set is open-ear and will not sound like noise-cancelling, in-ear earbuds - that is not the purpose of this product. If your purpose is high fidelity sound, then purchase headphones made for that purpose.Having said that, the sound of the OpenFit has great treble, decent midtones, and a surprising amount of bass. You can easily tweak these settings in the Shokz app to your preference and save it as a custom EQ setting. I found a sweet spot for my hearing within a minute of customizing the EQ.Phone Calls: The phone calls have been very clear so far on both ends of the conversation. Unlike with my AfterShokz, when I mute my Teams meetings, there is not the annoying beeps from the OpenFit headphones letting me know a hardware mute is in effect. It’s the Microsoft programmers’ fault for that, but I digress.Sound Level: I read on some reviews that the sound was not loud enough. The pair I have get so loud that I have only raised the volume to 80% because it became too uncomfortable. The sound projection is not quite as private as with the AfterShokz, but the sound quality is better. But it will not disturb your cubicle mates unless you have it turned up really loud. At 40% it will not bother them (unless you ticked them off, and then they will have it out for you anyway).Comfort: It is easy for me to forget I have these on, even after eight hours.Multipoint Pairing: It works smoothly as advertised – more smoothly than my AfterShokz.Battery Life: The site states 7 hours per charge, and that is pretty accurate. I use them all day for music, Teams meetings, and phone calls. One side will give out after 7.5 hours, and the other side will last about 45 minutes longer. So, no surprises there. They are very fast charging – I don’t know exactly how fast, but both earbuds were fully charged from 10% to 100% in less than two hours. I forgot to check them sooner than the two-hour mark, so I don’t exactly how fast they charged.Comparison with my Aeropex Aftershokz (Shokz OpenRun):Fit: The AfterShokz dig into the back of your ears when leaning your head back against a seat (airline flights, road trips, high back chair, etc.). OpenFit doesn’t have that issue – they are simply comfortable.Sound Quality: 1) The AfterShokz sound is more private, but OpenFit sound better at lower levels, which makes them almost as private. 2) AfterShokz has little bass response, but OpenFit have a surprising and pleasing amount of bass. 3) When the ambient noise levels are higher, raising the volume on the Openfit earbuds is successful more often than with the AfterShokz – and you don’t risk the bone conduction buzz, either.Comfort: Openfit does not “buzz” your bones and skin at higher levels like AfterShokz do.Battery Life: AfterShokz have a longer battery life, but I don’t care.Comparison Conclusion: I prefer the Shokz OpenFit earbuds for my office and home environments. For me it was a good choice

Let's get this out of the way first. The sound quality you get from these is sublime. It's very much of a higher quality than you can get from any bone conduction headset, even the Shokz OpenRun Pro, arguably. The bass response simply made my music and audio feel more full and substantive. During my time using OpenFit, I very much enjoyed that aspect.Though it's not without its downsides. While I can appreciate the new earhook design Shokz is trying for a true-wireless set of audio tech, in my experience it wasn't the best. The left earpiece fit perfectly fine on my ear with no issues whatsoever, however the right earpiece always felt slightly more loose and less secure than the left one did, no matter how much I adjusted it. Even just slightly shaking my head ... MoreLet's get this out of the way first. The sound quality you get from these is sublime.

The left earpiece fit perfectly fine on my ear with no issues whatsoever, however the right earpiece always felt slightly more loose and less secure than the left one did, no matter how much I adjusted it. Even just slightly shaking my head would knock it loose ever so slightly, which ruined comfort for me. I'm not going to blame Shokz for this, and instead I will blame the inconsistent anatomy of the human ear, since everyone's are shaped differently.The reason this product only gets three stars, however, is because the speaker drivers appear to have been blown out after only a couple months of usage. I don't believe I had been listening to music/audio at volumes that could cause this to happen, nor am I blaming Shokz for this product failure. It's entirely possible that there was some user error here, and I'm willing to believe that this is the case, but it is still rather disappointing.Overall, I don't dislike the product idea. Shokz clearly wants to expand into this "openback" wireless earbud market, and I'm all for it. However I have seen a recent video on a Kickstarter product by Oladance, which appears to take this open driver earpiece design, and connect them together via a wireframe headband much like what Shokz uses for all its other products. If Shokz were to release a product like this of their own, I would be much more interested in trying it.

So I have been a long time user of the Shokz platform. I started using them when they were first under their previous name Aftershokz and had the titanium and air variety, circa 2015. I've sung the praises for their quality build, comfort, and convenience, and when the open fit came out it was clear that the company listens to market demand and made a fantastic product! The sound quality of the Openfit is more than enough for day to day use, and that comes with more than a month of daily, sun up to sundown use. If you run, workout, or just or work the Openfit is, well, a perfect fit... To a point.There is one major gripe I have that I would warn new buyers of, something that may give you pause to steer clear of the product entirely.

The sound quality of the Openfit is more than enough for day to day use, and that comes with more than a month of daily, sun up to sundown use. If you run, workout, or just or work the Openfit is, well, a perfect fit... To a point.There is one major gripe I have that I would warn new buyers of, something that may give you pause to steer clear of the product entirely. It seems that the forethought and planning that went into the design of the Openfit was not extended to its product support or it's customer service. As these are true wireless headphones, the case is also the main method to charge the buds, but it is also a separate unit. A small, sleek, sturdy, and all to easy to drop or lose unit.When I bought the headphones I was very careful not to ignore this fact, but as life is unpredictable I managed to drop the charging case from my pocket while on a run. Given the marketing of the item as a fitness lifestyle brand I had figured it appropriate that there would be the option to replace the charging box. On checking the Trekz website, this was not the case. I figured then that maybe it's something I could request from Trekz customer service, and as I have the warranty card that could serve as proof of purchase and I could have a replacement charging case ordered for purchase. Upon calling, I was met with a very blunt "This is not under the warranty and I can give you a code for 20% off of a new unit." then promptly dismissed. You would figure that the option to purchase an entire new unit, giving me 4 headphones and one unit. Now, these buds are very well designed, as they are small enough to not be noticed or encumber the user when worn, but this also presents the problem that without a case to hold them they are so small they are easily lost or destroyed. The proposed solution to a missing charging case is to purchase a new set, where one of the 2 sets is entirely likely to be lost, and if it happens to be that you lose or break one of the buds from both sets they do not connect to one another as they are not the same pai, meaning you would need to throw them out, contributingnto even more hazardous E-waste... I'm honestly shocked that this is the way this company would deal with this issue. Rather than making the charging cases purchaseable separately, (possibly in alternate colors and styles or make it so you can purchase a backup for situations like this.) Instead they prioritize you spending 180% of the price to lose them and eventually throw them away anyway.I'm not going to outright say don't buy the Openfit, they are a fantastic product and will clearly last a long time. I am simply sending a warning to prospective buyers of this blind spot in the Trekz customer service and product support department.
I bought these to see if they would work out better for me than the Shokz Air bone- conduction audio device I currently use.The good: making calls from the OpenFit is much better for the folks on the other side, the sound quality of my voice to them is improved over what they hear when I am using the Air bone-conduciton unit.The not so good: While the OpenFit sounds good with decent bass while I am inside in a relatively quiet location, that does not generally seem to be the case when I am out either walking or bike riding (road, not dirt).I am not sure if it is because of my ear shape or what. It seems the speaker screen is located a bit above my ear canal, and the sound improves if I manually hold the OpenFit so that it is a bit lower on my ear.

It seems the speaker screen is located a bit above my ear canal, and the sound improves if I manually hold the OpenFit so that it is a bit lower on my ear. Understand I am not talking about pushing it into the ear canal, just pulling it down a bit so that it is more in line with where my ear canal seems to be. I was even considering trying to stretch out the ear loop. But even if I could (and am not sure it would work) doing that would seem to then be undone when I put them back in their charging holding case.Comfort - is OK, Maybe I just need to wear them more to get more used to them.User-friendly - hard/fair to okay. That is, sometimes I just can't seem to touch the right spot to either start/stop or go to next track. Or answer a call.Sometimes just putting them in will activate as if a button press, but that is understandable since I am well, touching them. :-)Two other good points, The beep sound when things change, such as when they drop the connection because I have wandered too far from my iPhone is mellow. This is a HUGE IMPROVEMENT over the harsh and way too loud beep that the Air bone-conduction unit makes when any change happens (sound Up, sound Down, connection Drop or Resume). (That noise is one of the things I HATE about the Shokz Air unit.)The second good point is that they seem to stay "in" on my ears when I am exercising.FYI, I ordered direct from you all, rather than Amazon or some other store, because of the longer period to give them a try-out.Thanks for asking and checking in with me on how it is going.

Couldn’t be happier. I have the open move for the office that have been my daily drivers for about 2 years now. I like a lot about them but the strap behind my head annoyed me and I always felt a little hunched over to keep it off my collared shirts, etc.Bought these on Black Friday sale and immediately noticed the sound quality is leaps and bounds ahead of their other bone conduction headphones because…they’re not. Obviously there are limitations to what you can do with fidelity as you pipe sounds through someone’s bones.These OpenFit however, will be my new favorites. I can just tell. They feel premium, lightweight, and the sound is awesome! I wasn’t sure if these were going to be kept, kinda bought on an impulse but I’ve had them on for 15 minutes and already ... MoreCouldn’t be happier.

They would beep all the time and I could mute phone calls with the buttons but not computer voice calls like Teams when paired to both devices.Not sure if Shokz will let me update in a few days but very impressed with what I just received!
There's a lot to love about these earbuds. I bought them because I was sick of worrying when my airpods were going to fall out. Because of that, I purposefully looked for a hook style.I hesitated getting these because they aren't noise-canceling. But, due to other reviews speaking about the benefits of having perfect music sound while also having perfect ambient sound access, I decided to give them a try. I would not use these on an airplane where I want to drown out crying babies and the jet engine sounds. But for the office and at home, they are great. I found noise cancelling to be problematic at the office because I can't hear when someone knocks on my door. And, of course, it's never good to not respond to your wife because your earbuds prevent you from ... MoreThere's a lot to love about these earbuds.

And, of course, it's never good to not respond to your wife because your earbuds prevent you from hearing her.I did take away one star because I found the BT pairing to be more difficult than the airpods. Having to use a Shokz app to attach a second device seems a bit ridiculous. And, btw, "multipoint pairing" is a euphemism because it only supports a maximum of two devices. So, if I want it always paired to my cellphone, but also pair to my home and work laptops, I will have to go throught the second device pairing each time I move from office to home, or vice versa. This seems pretty antiquated and short-sighted in terms of where technology is at today.
I purchased the SHOKZ OPEN FIT earbuds on Jan 27th, 2024. I had never heard of this brand before but was looking for something that did not go into the ear. I have had those type of ear devices previously and after long wear periods, my ears begin to ache and itch and get very irritated. Unfortunately, these are a daily need for me in my line of work and I wanted to look into other options that offer some noise canceling vs. purchasing the dreaded full sized headphones. Honestly, the one thing I was worried about after purchasing these, was whether others would hear what I was hearing when these were at a higher volume if they were sitting near or next to me, but amazingly, they cannot! Even though the store let me try the demo pair prior to purchasing, sometimes ... MoreI purchased the SHOKZ OPEN FIT earbuds on Jan 27th, 2024.

Even though the store let me try the demo pair prior to purchasing, sometimes you want to believe things to be what they are not and sometimes things are not what they appear to be. I am extremely impressed by the clarity and sound but most of all, the noise canceling feature these provide! I actually have to remove one when others are trying to talk to me if they are not in my meeting or call! These sit just over the ear, not in it! I absolutely love these and would recommend them to anyone but especially those that have to wear these devices for extended periods daily and or have sensitive ears. These are perfect for you! They have cancelled out all the noise of the many people in my busy background to where I do not hear them nor do the ones I am on the call/meeting with hear any noise and equally the same just sitting next to another person in a quieter environment! Battery life lasts all day for me 13+ hours. I do keep charged when not using. Definitely worth the cost and actually a little cheaper than the common name brands. They even have an APP to install, if you want, to be able to adjust the equalizer and other features these offer! They are also just as great with out the APP too! That’s just a bonus if you ask me! Go try these for yourself and tell me I am wrong! I am an 80+ hour a week wearer here!
Sound quality - If you're someone who's looking for noise cancelling headphones or really want to just hear the music then these obviously are not for you. But if you're someone who wants situational awareness and quality sound then they're perfect. The quality of sound is really good, especially considering they're open ear! When I use them whilst running I can hear the music really well whilst also being aware of what's going on around me. I use them at home when my other half is in a meeting (as we share an office space) and in this quieter space you can really hear how good the quality is! I now prefer them as my at-home use headphones too when needed as the sound is fantastic and it's really helpful to be able to still hear if the doorbell goes etc. I also use ... MoreSound quality - If you're someone who's looking for noise cancelling headphones or really want to just hear the music then these obviously are not for you.

I now prefer them as my at-home use headphones too when needed as the sound is fantastic and it's really helpful to be able to still hear if the doorbell goes etc. I also use them when commuting and they work better on some tube lines than others.Situational Awareness - As a woman I'm anxious when running on my own, especially in the Autumn/Winter months when it's dark in the mornings and evenings when I tend to go for a run. If I did run on my own I'd run without music so I could hear my surroundings but listening to music and/or running guides makes such a difference when running and having that ability of both listening to music and hearing my surroundings is really reassuring.Fit - I wasn't sure I'd like them as I thought they'd be quite fiddly, but once you've put them on a couple of times it's really easy and they stay on really well with no risk of them falling off whilst running. They're a really comfortable design and the silicone soft touch finish on them feels lovely. Also as I use them for general use as well as running I was worried how they might sit on my ears with earrings on too but they're absolutely fine (see photos).Overall I really recommend these headphones, both for running and general use around the home (or out and about if you value situational awareness more than noise cancellation like me).
Lightweight, comfortable to the point of not knowing you are wearing them, great sound but still allows you to hear ambient noise. If you don't want to shut out the world around you or better yet, it you want to be aware of what is happening around you for safety reasons or not zoning out, these do the job very well. Three improvements could be made. First, noise cancellation is not available which I understand is not so much due to the design and engineering, but is a result of the way sound is transmitted from these earphones to your ear canal which does not allow for noise cancellation. Second, no volume control on the devices themselves, quite a short coming, but I can't imagine they would have left this feature off if it could have been engineered into the ... MoreLightweight, comfortable to the point of not knowing you are wearing them, great sound but still allows you to hear ambient noise.

Third, an easy fix. I found if you brush your ear, say to swat an insect, you could accidentally also brush off the earphone and as with all miniature earphones like this, if you are standing in a bunch of plants or other stuff, it's hard to find. If you are skiing and this happens, good luck finding it in the snow or anywhere else if you are in motion and it pops off your ear. It would be easy to have an accessory detachable cable that ties the two earphones together so if one falls out, it does not fall to the ground. Even if they both fall out, it would be much easier to find with a connecting bright coloured cable. You could also buy a similar product at an eyewear store, but Shokz could probably design something that would look appropriate for the earphones.
