Shokz has released the OpenFit Bluetooth earbuds, which provide open-ear audio without using bone conduction technology. These earbuds offer a middle-ground between regular earbuds and bone conduction, delivering better audio quality while still allowing some situational awareness. They feature touch controls, a lightweight design, and a comfortable fit with over-the-ear hooks. The earbuds have a battery life of up to 7 hours and come with a charging case that extends playback time to 28 hours. However, there may be issues with handling low-frequency sounds in dance music. The Shokz OpenFit earbuds are available for $179.95 in black and beige options.
Shokz has released its first wireless earbuds, the OpenFit, featuring an open-ear design that allows users to hear their surroundings while listening to music. The earbuds utilize bone conduction technology, with transducers positioned on the temples to send vibrations through the cheekbones, leaving the ears open. The OpenFit earbuds offer all-day comfort and improved ambient sound capabilities, making them suitable for both online conversations and face-to-face interactions. They do not provide noise cancellation but remove unwanted background sounds for phone calls. The earbuds have a seven-hour listening time and can be recharged in the included case.
