I bought Shokz’s open-ear headphones last year and was really happy with how comfortable and safe they felt during my runs. So when I saw the new OpenDots One launched, I ordered them right away. I’ve been using them for almost a month now, mainly during my morning runs and while commuting to work.They’re incredibly lightweight and stay in place even when I’m jogging or navigating crowded trains. What I appreciate most is the open-ear design—it lets me stay aware of my surroundings without sacrificing audio clarity. I can still hear traffic or station announcements, which makes a big difference for safety and convenience.The fit is comfortable enough to wear for hours, and I’ve had zero issues with them slipping or causing any discomfort. Battery life has also held up well across several days of use.If you’re looking for something stable, comfortable, and safe for daily routines like running or commuting, this is a great option. Not overhyped, just thoughtfully designed for real-world use.

I’ve been using the Shokz OpenDots mostly for work, and they’ve been a game changer. I spend a lot of time on online meetings and calls, and these earbuds deliver clear sound with no static or fuzziness. People on the other end say I sound great, and I can hear them clearly too.The open-ear clip-on design is surprisingly comfortable—I can wear them through long workdays without any pressure or squeezing. They’re so light, I sometimes forget I’m wearing them. Plus, I like being able to hear my surroundings while still staying focused on meetings.They also stay securely in place, so I can get up, stretch, or move around without them shifting. And the battery is amazing—even with daily use, I just charge them once a week. The wireless charging case makes it super easy.For the price, they’re absolutely worth it. Much cheaper than other premium brands, but with all the essential features I need for daily work use. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a lightweight, reliable, and office-friendly earbud

This is my first time using an open-ear headphone set, and it's absolutely worth it! It came nicely packed with a complimentary protective case, a type-c charging cable and a super easy-to-follow user guide. The earbuds are incredibly lightweight, non-invasive and very comfortable! I can wear them for hours without any discomfort or the annoying feeling of something pulling my ears. Sometimes I even forget I have them on! Despite the light weight, the earbuds fit snugly and stay in place well. I've wore them while running or exercising and they never budged. There are also touch controls on earbuds that are smart, sensitive and responsive, which are pretty convenient.The sound quality really surprises me for an open-ear design! Everything sounds clear and well-balanced, and whether I'm listening to music, podcasts or taking calls it delivers great experience. One time I was vacuuming while on a call with a friend, and we could both hear each other clearly, no background noise in the way!Since it's open-ear, you don't expect noise canceling but that's the point. You can stay aware of the surroundings which is great for both safety and social interactions. What's really impressive is how little sound they leak. I tested with friends and they can hear minimal audio only when very close and at high volume (which you'd rarely need anyway). I've been wearing them at work where I need to stay aware but not disturbing others, and they've been perfect. Battery is another big PLUS! I've been able to use them for days without having to recharge the case.So if you are looking for a light, comfy and high-quality pair of headphones (not demanding noise canceling), this is an excellent choice. And I'd definitely recommend it!

The OpenDots are actually very nice! Compared to the Bose version, they come in at a cheaper price and almost the same sound quality. The comfort is all day long on my left ear, but on the right ear it tends start getting some fatigue. Battery life is good and the case gives you more juice if needed. The super cheap paper bag that Shocks provides to store your case in is garbage and you might as well throw it away because it will tear easily after one use. No charging block, but, they did provide a super short charging USBC cord. For the price paid as of this review, $213.95 is steep, but it’s cheaper than the Bose competitor. However, for $30 more the Bose version can be purchased and have better sound quality. That’s honestly the only 3 cons for these Buds, the cheap storage case paper bag, price and sound compared to Bose. However, the sound is still amazing if you don’t compare to Bose.
