SHOKZ OpenMeet UC Bone Conduction Headset with USB-A adapter, Open-Ear Bluetooth Headphones with Noise Cancelling Mic, Wireless Earphones for Work, Call, Meeting, Bluetooth 5.4, 15Hrs Battery Life

I already have the Shokz OpenComm 2 and the Shokz OpenRun Pro. I bought these because I wanted better microphone noise cancelling than the OpenComm 2, especially whilst on MS Teams meetings, without looking too goofy on the video feed. I also wanted a headset that would allow me to talk quietly in noisy environments, such as in café's or on public transport, whilst still being heard clearly. I was aware that some customers are complaining about the headset falling off when looking down, but that is not my experience. What I have found, surprisingly, is that this headset is more comfortable than the OpenComm 2 to wear all day such as whilst dictating. The sound through the earpieces is also significantly better and louder than with the OpenComm 2. I had some reservations about pressing the "buy now" button, and only did so on the basis that I could return them if I was not satisfied. Needless to say, they will not be going back!

I bought these to replace an Opencomm headset I'd been using every day for work for 3 years - the mic arm went wrong on those. The Openmeet is pricey but certainly a step up from the Opencomm. The quality feels alot better and even the storage case is nicer. Battery is charged via USB C and the life is good. Sound quality is very good an beats the opencomm. Whilst primarily for work, it's also great for Duolingo and the sound is plenty good enough for films and TV. Ok for music but dedicated headphones would be better. The hybrid setup (bone conduction and speaker) works well and doesn't leak sound. The design enables you to hear whats going on around you but this makes them unsuitable for noisy environments, but I'm sure anyone looking at these already knows this. I got the version with the USB dongle which connects with my work laptop easily, and the Bluetooth connects to my personal phone and it allows both to be active at once.

Falls off my head and has no grip at all. Slips on my hair. I don't have straight hair and my head isn't small. Very uncomfortable. No way to adjust. Feels poorly made. Decided to return within 5 minutes of trying. Very disappointed.

I wear glasses and find headphones push the arms of my glasses into my face, which becomes uncomfortable. These are fantastic, those who have an issue with them falling down, I don’t have this issue. Maybe try putting the band further back of your head. When I’m in meetings these have worked really well, I’ve had so much noise outside that you can hear inside, that my colleagues don’t hear it even though I do. The design is great, I don’t have the issue others have stated about them falling down when looking down, I am able to take notes when in meetings. I put the band of the headset further back on my head and never had had the ‘falling down’ issue. The connectivity is great not had any issues with that. Yes these can be deemed as expensive but it me, I get an overall better experience and one that doesn’t leave my head feeling uncomfortable due to conventional headphones pushing my glasses into my face. I also can’t wear ear phones as they irritate my hear. These overall are just fantastic. These are my first Shokz and I’m that impressed with the brand I’ll be purchasing another product to listen to my music when on the go. There’s always some things that can be improved so I’ve gave this a 4 star, I do think maybe a better design for those that have the issue with them falling down when looking down, but I don’t experience this issue. Technology is always improving so, if Shokz do another model of this then I’d expect some upgrades.

I bought this to replace an OpenComm because of the advertised increased range and I wasn't disappointed. I can walk all around the house without losing signal and keep listening in on meetings while I go down to the kitchen to make a coffee for example. The sound quality is great and it's more comfortable than the wraparound shapes of the other models if I want to lean back in a chair. I've experienced a similar issue to others with the headset slipping occasionally but not to a degree where it's caused a significant problem. My biggest issue with it is that after around 6 months, the microphone arm has become so loose that I can't put it in a stable position other than fully up or fully down. There seems to be no way to tighten it without trying to take the device apart which has resulted in me being muted in calls because people can hear my breath on the mic.

I was surprice at the audio quality on this device. The sound quality on music is not that bad. You can toggle to standard mode (which is good for listening to music) and vocal mode (good for calling listening to audio books or listening to podcast/news). I was not able to drain the batter the entire day, I have 40% left even after an entire day of use. Noise cancelling is aslo amazing on the mic. I have a toddler and an infant thats always on the background. I need to be able to hear them (plus my wife) but my caller doesnt need to hear them and this works perfect. Cons - The Fit - It falls. Altho the headphone is not putting stress on my head at all it falls all the time. I have to wear a hat to keep it on. Not meant for outside use, it will fall when you bow down. USB doesnt work on conversion to phone jacks, radio console, cat5/6/ethernet, the port shoud supply power to power up the dongle and use it as a transmitter. I work as a 9-1-1 dispatcher and it was my primary plan to use this at work to be able to have situational awareness at the same time while dispatching and talking 911 calls. I need to be able to hear other radios chatters in the background and people calling or hailing my attention. But we use radio console like Solacom and this device is not compatible eventhough this is plug and play. I just wish that they will update the firmware or dunno improve the USB dongle to be used on phone jacks/cat5 cable. (Note: I also thried the converter but did not work, donbgle is not lighting up which means no power is being supplied to it) But I will still use this in as my daily headphones. I just love the sound quality and the situational awareness.

shook as always innovating, is light, conversation clear, connectivity superb.

Lo que ya se conoce (no ajustan y se mueven/caen con el movimiento de la cabeza) + que con un volúmen algo alto el sonido se logra escuchar a tu alrededor (porque usa 2 formas de emitir el sonido de forma simultánea: por hueso y normal). En todo caso, me gusta y no lo devolveré.

J'écris ce commentaire pour signifier aux acheteurs potentiels de ce produit qu'il est impossible d'avoir la qualité sonore identique entre ces 2 activités (par exemple) pour le moins basique vu le prix du dispositif : - écouter de la musique seul ; - écouter de la musique et avoir une discussion avec quelqu'un sur un logiciel VoIP comme Discord en même temps. C'est dû au fait qu'au moment où le micro s'active la qualité du son dans le casque est désastreuse. C'était un problème déjà présent pour leur produit Opencomm que j'avais acheté et renvoyé dans la foulée il y a quelques années en leur signifiant que ne pas avoir de dongle était problématique. Au vu de l'arrivée de ce dongle, j'ai voulu retenter le coup mais malheureusement, leur dongle "Loop 120" vendu à un prix EXORBITANT sur Amazon au passage n'y change rien, celui-ci est simplement un récepteur Bluetooth avec quelques options. La concurrence ayant corrigé ce problème avec chacun un dongle propriétaire de leur fabrication, j'ai pensé qu'il en était de même pour Shokz... pas de bol et vu le peu d'options présentes pour celui-ci sur leur application Shokz Connect et une qualité sonore sur smartphone avec Bluetooth 5.2 similaire en écoutant uniquement de la musique, c'est à se demander ce qu'il fait réellement avec un prix pareil !

I love SHOKZ headphones and this headset does not disappoint. You can have it plugged in and recharge while using it which is fantastic! Long battery life! Great sound quality and noise canceling and boom mic is easy to swing out of the way or an easy to use mute button. They do have a bit of a novel design that might not be for everyone but I have been very happy with this headset and SHOKZ in general. I have purchased multiple pairs of headphones and I put them through extreme use and will buy more when I wear them out or break them. Comfortable fit too!
