Our take on the Shokz OpenRun Mini Open-Ear Bone Conduction Headphones

The Shokz OpenRun Mini is a bone conduction headphone that sits in front of the ear instead of over it, so you hear your surroundings while you listen. It has a shorter band than the standard OpenRun, aimed at smaller heads. It is IP67 water resistant, pairs over Bluetooth and runs about 10 hours per charge. Against in-ear sport buds it trades bass and isolation for awareness and a secure fit, and owners of the OpenRun line rate it highly for running and cycling.

Questions and answers

How is the Mini different from the standard OpenRun?
The Mini has a shorter band for smaller heads. The drivers, battery life and IP67 rating are the same as the standard OpenRun.
Can I swim with them?
No. IP67 covers sweat, rain and brief immersion, but bone conduction headphones are not built for swimming.
How long does the battery last?
About 10 hours of listening per charge, which covers several long runs or a week of workouts.
Do they work with glasses or helmets?
Yes. The band rests behind the head and the transducers sit in front of the ears, so glasses and bike helmets fit over them.
What comes in the box?
The headphones, a proprietary charging cable and a carry case. A USB-C cable from other Shokz models will not fit.
Is it worth buying over in-ear sport buds?
If you run or ride near traffic, the open-ear design and IP67 build are the draw. In-ear buds give more bass and isolation but block the sounds you may need to hear.
Where is the Shokz OpenRun Mini Open-Ear Bone Conduction Headphones cheapest?
At Sportsshoes, for $178.09, as of our latest check.
