News: OpenRun Pro2 Headphones

Shokz is renowned for its market-leading tech. Runners, cyclists, and swimmers flock to this brand because of its next-level design and durable build quality. Accordingly, I’m excited to announce the new OpenRun Pro2 Headphones. This lightweight audio beast will change the way you exercise. Not only do they look fantastic, but the bone-conducting technology allows you to listen to your music/podcasts and stay safe.

If this isn’t enough, the comfortable, but familiar headband design allows you the freedom to wear an array of caps, bands, and other sports garments. This approach has allowed Shokz to dominate the market. Moreover, the glittering reviews of its predecessor ensure that it has an incredible foundation to build from.

Details of the OpenRun Pro2 Headphones.

Crafted with ultra-lightweight, high-strength material with a soft silicone finish, OpenRun Pro2 delivers a cloud-like fit prioritising all-day comfort, designed to make the user forget they’re even wearing headphones. 

Featuring Shokz’s signature open-ear design, OpenRun Pro2 keeps you immersed in your workout while staying grounded in your surroundings. Whether it’s traffic or fellow joggers, every essential sound finds its way in, ensuring your safety and enriching your listening experience. It intelligently optimises the volume range, making your audio clearer even if you are out and about. 

Compared to the previous models, OpenRun Pro2 excels in its sound quality. With the latest DualPitch™ technology, the headphones have a perfect duet between a bone conduction and air conduction speaker, of which the former handles mids and highs with total precision, while the latter releases controlled, subterranean bass. The result is an unparalleled listening experience that’s as clear as it is powerful. The vibrations from bone conduction are also reduced accordingly.

Shokz’s ultra-thin all-metal bone conduction driver exclusively handles high-frequency sounds, delivering clearer highs and full, natural mids thanks to its high sensitivity and rigidity. The new dual reed and coil innovative design stabilises the vibration system, producing a purer vocal sound.

The low-frequency air conduction driver is dedicated to processing low-pitch sound waves to offer a more booming, deep bass. The strengthened feather-light dome-shaped diaphragm, paired with a patterned PU material ring, attains greater amplitude without compromising audio balance, resulting in a flawless sound even when listening at high volume.

Coming in two sizes and two different colourways, users can enjoy up to 12 hours of music playback with a larger battery and none of the extra weight. The larger battery, coupled with dual smart drivers assigned specific roles, improves battery life while also reducing power consumption. With Quick Charge, a 5-minute power boost gives you 2.5 hours of playtime. In addition, a waterproof USB-C port lets you charge up with ease, whether you’re using the included cable or your own. Dual protective layers and a secure charging port cover form an impenetrable barrier against water while maintaining effortless recharging. 

To add, the OpenRun Pro2 benefits from MultiPoint Pairing to seamlessly switch from two devices without pairing hassle, while it also has an IP55 water-resistant design, including a double-layer mesh structure and nano-hydrophobic coating which ensures durability against the elements.

Leon Du, Europe Market Director at Shokz says: “As a flagship product, we’ve perfected the sound quality performance of OpenRun Pro2, which can help consumers to enjoy music better while keeping the ear open. There is no doubt that OpenRun Pro2 will take open-ear audio to the next level.“
