Shokz OpenComm UC Wireless Open-Ear Bone Conduction Stereo Business Headset - Black

Great for the job - only issue is it's too big for my head and isn't adjustable. Great for the job - only issue is it's too big for my head and isn't adjustable.

Shokz just work for me. I just love the technology. I have the OpenRunPro for general usage, and OpenComm for work, then upgraded to the adapter based set. I work from home, often spending 7 or 8 hours on VC, and I find with these I am much less drained because they don't cover or go in my ears. Also allows me to hear people at the door, or if the dogs are causing havoc.

Fantastic value for money. Fantastic value for money.

Used it all day today and took calls on a busy train ride. The caller on the other end could hear me perfectly. Highly recommended since it has the dedicated microphone arm that is close to your mouth for noisy environments.

Pairing with the phone, easy.

Pairing with the usb dongle, even easier. Used it all day today and took calls on a busy train ride. The caller on the other end could hear me perfectly. Highly recommended since it has the dedicated microphone arm that is close to your mouth for noisy environments.

Excellent well worth it for any work environment Excellent well worth it for any work environment

These are surprisingly comfortable. Great for all-day wear. I have outer ear deafness so the bone conduction bypasses all that and I have good sound again.
These leave my ears free and don't interfere with my hearing aids.
The best part is the crystal clear microphone, it doesn't pick up all the background noise in this noisy open-plan office. Great for Zoom/Teams calls.

Really good product iam enjoying this product and was a great buy for me Really good product iam enjoying this product and was a great buy for me

I’m a big fan of Bone conduction headphones and these are no exception. Super comfortable, very fast to charge, insane wireless range as usual with the brand.

The microphone is discreet and folds away when not in use. Noise cancellation is great even outdoors (something my previous Shokz have struggle with). For anyone who loves normal Shokz but needs a better microphone or anyone in an office where you need to talk to colleagues but also answer calls it’s a fantastic device.

The laptop dongle is fine, but not quite as reliable as I would like. It can sometimes take a few tries to get it to connect if you have been using your phone.

Battery life is amazing, the charging blew me away too. It's been a while since I splurged on a wireless headset and I was impressed and very happy with my decision... That was until today.
I received them on 30/03/23 and it's 03/04/2023, so well under a week.

For the first time, I heard crackling like listening to pop rocks candy. I've charged it maybe 4 times and already I'm experiencing issues does not bode well for the long term. When the popping/crackling happened it was making the sound of connecting 2 times so I figure it lost connection with the PC USB dongle, less than 1m from me... before I easily was 4-5m through walls and ha...view more Battery life is amazing, the charging blew me away too.

I'll amend this post if it's a once-off and I don't have issues for a while, but this has made me start to regret my decision to get them

Yes, they say you can reset your headset, but if I need to reset it less than a week in, it's disappointing and does not bode well. Purchase at your own risk. If this happens again within 2 weeks I will be requesting a refund.
That being said, before this happened I was very impressed with them and I 'might' just have a faulty product.

I am seriously impressed by this Shoks headset, I bought two. It is perfect for a busy work environment and being able to make calls and have Zoom meetings without your mic picking up on too much ambient noise. So the main thing for me was getting a great microphone, comfortable for long periods of use and a bluetooth connection. Battery doesn't last a full day but recharges super fast during a break. I have another set at home that I use for around the house when doing jobs and can't get to my phone i.e. in the garden or doing lawns. Just stop, press side button, and the call can be heard crystal clear with your voice heard clearly on...view more I am seriously impressed by this Shoks headset, I bought two.

If you want the best music headset with plenty of bass, this is not for you but for me it is heaps good enough for music while I am working, for an audiobook or a YouTube. The biggest factor for me is that in-ear headsets never fitted well for me and often fell out. Also, I needed to hear if someone was calling out for me. These stay on easily all day no matter what I am doing ... no sore ears. Wish I had found these sooner.

I have tried and still have a lot of headphones and headsets, including the Jabra Elite Pro 7, Bose 700 and others. All are good for some things. The Shokz OpenComm has a specific purpose which they excel at, for me. They are not great for music (this is clear in every reviewer), but for calls and use audiobooks/podcasts while mobile, they are brilliant. I even use them in the car instead of the car Bluetooth now. Unlike the Bose 700 and Jabra Pro 7, which are awesome for music and good for voice when you want to shut out the outside world, the Shokz are perfect for voice when you want the outside noise in!

The Jabra Elite 7 Pro probably remain my most versatile in that they are small, easy to carry and use, and have good sound for music and voice, but the mic is noisy when in the wind or on the move (according to people on the other end of my calls).

Surprising, good alternative to ear buds for voice, video conf and pod casts but not "HiFi" so not recommended for music. Headset itself is not noise cancelling but the microphone is so it's more suited to office environment where you don't mind hearing what's going on around you but the person on the other end of the call doesn't here your neighbour / background music etc. Not so good is a noisy home environment. I use them all day every day. Surprising, good alternative to ear buds for voice, video conf and pod casts but not "HiFi" so not recommended for music.
