Black Friday 2026 is just around the corner, and with summer on its way it's the perfect time to work out which open-ear headphones belong on your wish list.

The Three Shokz Models at a Glance
All three models are open-ear, meaning nothing goes inside your ear canal. That keeps you aware of traffic, bike riders and the odd magpie in swooping season, while your music plays. The main differences are the fit and what each model is built for.
Which Shokz Model Is Right for You?
OpenRun Pro 2: For Anyone Who Loves to Keep Moving
Do you train before work, chase a personal best at Saturday parkrun, or have the City2Surf or Melbourne Marathon on your calendar? The OpenRun Pro 2 is made for it. Its flexible neckband stays put when the pace picks up, so you're not fiddling with your headphones halfway up the hill.
DualPitch™ technology combines bone and air conduction for powerful sound with real bass, and the battery lasts up to 12 hours, which easily covers a long run plus the coffee stop afterwards. It comes in Standard and Mini sizes, so you can get the right fit for your head. And because your ears stay open, you'll still hear cars, cyclists and your running buddy.
OpenSwim Pro: Music in the Pool and on the Trail
Love a morning lap before the day gets going? The OpenSwim Pro lets you take your playlist into the water. It has an IP68 waterproof rating and can be submerged up to 2 metres for up to 2 hours in fresh water. Because Bluetooth doesn't work underwater, it also has a built-in MP3 player with 32GB of storage, so you can leave your phone in your bag.
Back on land, switch to Bluetooth mode (up to 9 hours of listening) for runs, hikes or rides. It sits comfortably with swim goggles and caps, and the sports-optimised physical buttons are easy to use with wet hands. Please note that underwater use is limited to MP3 mode, and it's always worth checking the user guide before using it anywhere other than a pool.
OpenFit 2+: Big Sound for Everyday Life
For the listener who wants great audio without blocking out the world, the OpenFit 2+ is the pick. DualBoost™ technology pairs a large low-frequency driver with an independent high-frequency unit, and Dolby Audio adds a wider, more lifelike soundstage for music, films and games.
Each earbud weighs just 9.4 g, and the flexible ear hook stays comfortable all day, even if you wear glasses. You get up to 11 hours of listening on a single charge and up to 48 hours with the case, which supports wireless charging. IP55 water resistance handles gym sweat and a sudden summer downpour, and four AI noise-reducing mics keep your calls clear. It's equally at home on the morning commute, in the office or on a walk around the block.
