“Purchased these for hiking. Love that I can still hear my surroundings but listen to an audio book or music at the same time. These are much more comfortable than both my over-ear headphones and ear buds which I couldn’t wear for long durations.”
“Since I hate things stuck in my ears, this is the next best thing. I use the Shokz for listening to music on the way to work on the bus, and in the street. And they work well. I like the fact I can be aware of my surroundings as well as listen to music. It did not take too long to get used to this. The Shokz have an excellent sound and - regardless of some negative reviews on sound quality - are very good. Obviously they will not compete with good closed headphones but more than good enough and with reasonable bass which is a trade off made for not having something stuck in your ear canal and not being able the hear the truck approaching rapidly behind you.”
