Easy to use
I don't like things in my ears so these are a prefect compromise. I can listen to my audio book and still hear as the earphone sits outside the ear. They're comfortable and don't trigger a migraine which is a huge reason stopping me from conventional earphones. Highly recommend.

A great Product that keeps me happy when doing activities I love.
Love my new headphones - no fear of losing them off my head when I swim, walk or do my gardening. The sound is great and they sit so comfortably without any pressure on my eardrum. There are no issues when wearing my glasses . They are flexible and compact and easy to clean. Battery life is very good too and they are easy to use.

Not 'Bone Conduction'
Disappointed... I've been using SHOKZ for 3 or 4 years. These are the worst SHOKZ I have used.. Stiff and extra long neck cord does not fit comfortably. Collar, Neck pillows or backpack will easily slip these off your ears. If lying on side (eg: on airplane with neck pillow) these are uncomfotable and slips off ears. My bad - these are 'Over Ear' and not bone conduction which I usually use as I am deaf.

Great headphones for my son
Bought for my son so I could have my headphones back. Easy to use, son loves them, easy to connect. I find these good as he can still hear me while listening to music

Awesome features
The Shokz Open Move are so comfortable to use, and the sound is fantastic, I absolutely love them and recommend. To be able to have your hands free and know that you don't have to constantly adjust earpieces is also comforting.

At a glance
The Shokz OpenMove is a lightweight open-ear wireless headphone option for runners, commuters and active users who want to hear music without blocking surrounding sound. Its secure wraparound fit, IP55 sweat resistance and clear call support make it practical for daily movement. The main limitation is that open-ear design provides less noise isolation and bass impact than in-ear premium models.
What it’s great for
- Outdoor Exercise
- Commuting
- Walking
- Running
- Gym Sessions
- Hands-Free Calls
Where it works best
- Outdoor Paths
- City Commutes
- Gym
- Home Workouts
- Office Calls
- Light Rain Conditions
Who it’s for
- Runner
- Cyclist
- Daily Commuter
- Fitness User
- Outdoor Walker
- Hands-Free Caller
Things to consider
Because the ear canal stays open, it does not isolate outside noise like sealed in-ear earbuds, so it is less suited to noisy flights, trains or listeners who want stronger bass.
Commuter suitability score
8/10 - strong for situational awareness and comfortable wear, but open-ear audio is less ideal in very noisy transport settings.
Workout fit
Secure wraparound fit suited to running, gym sessions and active movement.
Noise isolation effectiveness
2/10 - open-ear design intentionally keeps outside sound audible rather than blocking it.
All-day comfort rating
8/10 - the 29 g lightweight frame and open-ear design reduce ear fatigue for extended wear.
Multi-device switching ease
5/10 - Bluetooth 5.1 pairing is straightforward, but there is no clear evidence of advanced multipoint switching.
Key benefits
- Open-ear bone conduction design: Lets you stay more aware of traffic, announcements and nearby people while listening.
- 29 g lightweight build: Feels comfortable for longer walks, workouts and commutes.
- Up to 6 hours play time: Covers many daily workouts, commutes and call sessions on one charge.
- IP55 sweat and splash resistance: Better suited to training sessions and light rain than non-rated models.
- Secure wraparound titanium fit: Stays stable during movement better than many loose-fitting casual earbuds.
- Bluetooth 5.1: Provides a modern wireless connection with up to 10 m range for everyday device pairing.
- Dual noise-cancelling microphone: Helps your voice come through more clearly on calls when you are out and about.
- USB-C charging with 2-hour recharge time: Makes top-ups simple with common cables and gets you back listening quickly.
Q: Do these Shokz headphones go in your ears?
A: No. Shokz OpenMove uses an open-ear bone conduction design, so the pads sit just in front of the ears and the band wraps behind the head. That keeps the ear canal uncovered, but it also means outside noise stays audible.
Q: Are they good for noisy trains or flights?
A: No, not if blocking noise is the priority. Shokz OpenMove leaves the ear canal uncovered by design, so carriage and cabin noise remains audible. It suits outdoor awareness better than listening in consistently loud spaces.
Q: Can I wear them in rain or during sweaty workouts?
A: Yes. Shokz OpenMove has an IP55 rating for sweat and splashing water, so it suits training sessions and light rain. It is not described as waterproof, so it is not the right choice for swimming or full submersion.
Q: How long does the battery last and how does it charge?
A: Shokz OpenMove plays for up to 6 hours per charge and recharges by USB-C in 2 hours. That covers many workouts, walks and shorter commutes, but frequent all-day listening may still need a recharge before the day is over.
Q: What Bluetooth range should I expect day to day?
A: Shokz OpenMove has a Bluetooth range of 10m in open space. That is usually enough for a phone in a pocket, on a desk or beside gym equipment, though walls and other wireless interference can reduce range indoors.
