Very comfortable and they sound
Very comfortable and they sound good. The buttons are a little smaller than the OpenMove and that makes them harder to find when running, but otherwise they function very well.

Too big.
They are too big around the back of my head. I wish they were more snug so I can put them under my hair, or a beanie hat, or wear them while lying down to exercise or stretch. They easily get out of position which compromises the sound quality.

Great change of pace from headphones that go directly into the ears
Great set of headphones. To start with they are very comfortable and sound quality is very good. Sweat doesn’t interfere with the sound like it does with earbuds that go directly into the ears. I would highly recommend these headphones.

More comfortable than most. I like using them to listen to audiobooks more than music.

Someday I'll get myself a newer pair
I keep buying newer models as gifts for people. I have an original and the version that came out after that. I really would like to get myself one of the newer ones but it's hard to justify when the ones I have still work.

I should have purchased the mini. Make sure to measure your head. Other than that these are exactly what I have been looking for.

Just what the doctor ordered!
Shokz are the best! Seamless listening experience, they let me get out and about and the thoughtful design lets me adjust my listening to what’s going on around me.

Returned Open Run
I really wanted to love these. They were recommended by people I trust, but I had a few minor issues and one major issue with them. The minor ones include the fact the buttons are so dang tiny AND close together that I'd easily press the wrong one or more than one at a time. Also, I found the 'voice' that said whether they were on or off rather annoying. The major issue...

Awesome
Seriously, these are a game changer. There's so many reasons these are the best Bluetooth buds. The battery lasts me more then 8 hrs and I use them daily. I now have 2 pair. Love them

Should Be Adjustable
As a cochlear wearer, bone conducting headphones are all that I can use. I was excited to try these. I got the minis due to having multiple mastoid removal surgeries. They would be great if they weren’t so large and could be adjusted for those with smaller heads. The sound is great as long as I don’t move my head, which moves the headphones.

Not what I was expecting
They don't quite fit nicely in front of my ears, at times they don't even touch making it nearly impossible to hear them. They cannot overpower the sound of the vacuum. There are times when it feels like the speaker part is giving me small shocks.
They do stay on my head while running.

I wanted waterproof mini. My Aftershokz mini is not waterproof. Noise canceling needs improvements and sometimes people people can't hear me clearly.

Wish I found Shokz sooner
Got them for talking hands free. Music is clear but lacks the lower range bass. I forget im wearing them most of the time and battery life lasts longer than my phone. Wish I found them sooner.

The design and sound are
The design and sound are incredible. I'm never worried about my earbuds falling out when participating in an event. My only complaint is that I really wanted to purchase the Mini, due to the basic fact I have a small head. I would have loved the smaller size, but you didn't offer the size or variations in colors, so settled for the standard size. Maybe in future you wil...
