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.

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...

The sound is very weak, hard to hear
This is my second pair of shokz and for some reason this pair does not seem to get as loud as my previous pair. I mainly use them outdoors for running and it’s very hard to hear the music

I like it because I used it in the office & I’m aware of my surroundings can still do my job efficiently.
Sounds is good but if it’s windy it effect the volume sometimes disappears, I can’t hear the music while I’m walking.

LOVE These Things!!!
I wasn't sure I'd like these, as I am a musician and want to hear my music the way I want to hear it while I'm running, but I found that using in-ears for longer runs was uncomfortable in my canals and probably harmful long-term. These are surprisingly great-sounding with lots of clarity in the middle to high ranges. The low end is lost a little more, but I was rather e...

I like them a lot but…
If you want to change songs while running they are finicky, mine always pauses the song instead of skipping, even when I double click very carefully. Also if you accidentally click it extra when it doesn’t work, it’ll call people from your phone…

Great headphones! worth the money
These headphones are fantastic - providing excellent sound quality while allowing you to maintain situational awareness while out and about. The design keeps the "noise" out of your ear - but you still hear it crystal clear!
I chose this pair because the controls are buttons which are much more moisture "friendly" than the touch sensors on the other styles.

Quality slide for the worse not better
I have purchased Shokz headphones before and was excited about replacing my 2019 headset with the newer model, but was very disappointed in the sound quality of the new ones. If I am just using them for listen to music, they are great, but using them for answering and calling people they were very poorly functional. The sound was horrible. Trying to find the button to a...
