I bought the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 when it was on sale last December for $133. I love them, but I don't think I'd pay more than I did. I like that I can wear them while biking and still hear traffic, they also never fall off or jiggle when I'm jogging. The one downside is they won't get real loud, so you'll have to get used to slightly lower volume, but I guess your sense of hearing will thank you for that. I read from multiple people that the difference between the Pro2 and the Pro 1 is significant.

I would not buy these used.

I've gone through multiple pairs and had to use the warranty as I believe they over rate their non-swimming version water resistance, which leads to multiple issues, causing them to be unusable

I've personally gone through five pairs over the years

Not for these bone-conducting headsets. They don't go into your ears.

Be careful about battery life

My openrun SE from Costco has dropped to 40 min battery life after daily use for about 10 months. Contacted shokz and they sent me a free replacement under warranty (great service). But the used ones you get on eBay might have similar situation

I bought the open fit 2 on a trip when I forgot my headphones intending to return them but I love them. Great sound quality and feel high quality. I use them more than my AirPods now.

I'm on my third model (started with an AfterShokz Air, then OpenRun, now OpenRun Pro 2) over the last few years, and overall I'm very happy with Shokz (I use them daily). Excellent for cases where situational awareness trumps sound quality/volume. I mainly use them for walking the dogs, riding my bike to work, in office, etc. and mainly listen to podcasts or audio books for which they're perfect. Where they don't work as well is for things like flights or trains (well at least BART which is ridiculously loud in tunnels). With that said, I'd overall highly recommend them if your uses fit.

Prices here are really hit or miss. Costco has ran some really good sales of older models (like $75 for a new OpenRun) so I would only consider the deals closer to 50% or more. I've had a great warranty experience when I had issues, and I've not had the battery issue the above post references (and do use mine daily).

Have you downloaded the Shokz app? It can install a new firmware to your headset, then it gives you new controls including traditional bone conduction, without using the speaker on the outside, an overall volume boost which is significant, and other options including a full equalizer to adjust to your preference.

didnt know about this - thanks!

Also - i think i have the 2 (non-pro), but i sweat like a mf. Theyre still going strong, but I wonder if I should eventually pick up the swim version of these even though they supposedly dont sound as good.

Same. I think I've killed 2 pairs of the originals and one of the OpenRun/Aeropex. Recently I got a brand new pair from Costco and they lasted maybe 3 runs before they died, while my old OG Aeropexes are still doing great.

Apropos of nothing I did some brief product testing for them and have a one-off pair of sunglasses with the headphones built into the arms. I love them.

It's bone conducting headset so that your open ears can hear other sound around which in turn make you think the headset volume is low. To make it loud, use ear plugs. I usually carry ear plugs with me (silicone ones with loop so I hang them on the headset). When it's noisy, I use 1 ear plugs (I can actually lower the Bluetooth volume when using ear plugs) or 2 if I want to block all outside sound.This is also a good test to check the headset is real bone conducting. I bought a dirt cheap Lenovo one from Temu, and when I used ear plugs the sound actually lowered so it's not real bone conducting.

Be caution that it seems to be an known issue that the buttons on the headset could become stuck, hard to press or unresponsive. I have one OpenRun Pro Mini has that issue but was replaced under warranty without much question (just fill out an online form). The other one I'm using under 1 year so far has no issue

These are good for 1-2 years of service then they die

i returned the openrun pros. bad sound quality, even max volume is too low. go with something like the anker v20i if you want open ear -- cheaper, charging case, better sound, no buzzing, no sound leak, no buttons for boomer parents to deal with. Baseus open ear is on sale for $14 with coupon code.
