Bone conduction headsets are a great way to get your music or phone calls while keeping your ears open for external sounds. I use my Opencomm headset everyday when I run, then when I’m on daily Zoom calls. The newest headset is OpenRun Pro, which we saw at CES 2022.

About OpenRun Pro

A one-piece bone conduction headset with mic that fits around your ears, the Openrun Pro is 20% smaller than previous models.

TurboPitch Sound

This headset features the 9th generation bone conduction technology, and introduces TurboPitch – adding two bass enhancers around the tranducers. Along with their PremiumPitch 2.0 technology, this will provide crisp and clear midrange to high frequency sounds.

Microphones

If you need to take a call, the dual noise-canceling microphone are there to reduce whatever surrounding noise you have. The microphones even do a decent job when you’re in mid-run, and your huffing up a hill.

IP55 Waterproof

The headset is IP55 waterproof – perfect for sweating at the gym. Not meant for swimming, but the headphones probably won’t stay on when submerged.

Openrun Pro charges in 1.5 hours (with a 5 minute quick charge option). The headset can run for up to 10 hours at 75% volume on an iOS14 device.

One of the other great features to bone conduction headsets is you can move the device around to still hear a call and also be able to talk with people in the room. I sometimes also have to be on another call, where I have an Airpods Pro in one ear, but still can have the Shokz headset sending audio as well.

Price and Availability

Shokz launched OpenRun Pro at CES 2022, so it’s available now for $179.00. Get the OpenRun Pro Headphones here.
