Sound technology for movement and everyday life
The OpenFit 2 differs fundamentally from classic in-ear or over-ear headphones: instead of closing off the ear, the sound transducers are positioned above the ear canal. This open design is enhanced by the new DualBoost technology. Two drivers work in each earpiece – one for powerful bass, another for finely tuned mids and highs. The sound image therefore remains differentiated even when there is movement and in noisy surroundings.
At the heart of the listening experience is the advanced Shokz OpenBass 2.0 algorithm, which uses vibrations to transmit bass directly to the ear without completely blocking out the environment. This keeps you alert at all times in traffic or during training without compromising on sound quality. This combination is particularly interesting for users who spend a lot of time outdoors or in dynamic situations and still don’t want to miss out on music, podcasts or calls.
The OpenFit 2 is also suitable for everyday calls: two AI-controlled microphones per earbud ensure clear voice transmission – even in busy environments such as train stations or gyms. The whole thing is supported by Bluetooth 5.4 with multipoint pairing, allowing the headphones to be seamlessly connected to multiple devices.
Comfort meets function
In addition to sound performance, Shokz attaches particular importance to wearing comfort and suitability for everyday use. Each earbud weighs just 9.4 grams and adapts to the individual ear shape thanks to a flexible nickel-titanium alloy. The new Ultra-Soft-Silicone™ 2.0 pads reduce pressure points, making them comfortable to wear even during long sessions – a clear advantage over classic in-ear models.
Control is achieved through a combination of physical buttons and touch functions, which enables intuitive operation even when moving. Whether volume, skip or call acceptance – everything can be controlled directly on the device. In addition, the IP55 certification provides reliable protection against sweat and splash water, making the OpenFit 2 suitable for use even in bad weather or during intensive workouts.
Also convincing: the battery life. Up to 11 hours per charge are possible, the charging case extends the total playing time to up to 48 hours. A quick-charging function provides two hours of playback time within 10 minutes – ideal for spontaneous use. With the new “Find My Buds” function in the Shokz app, misplaced earbuds can also be quickly found again.
Conclusion
With the OpenFit 2, Shokz is launching a successful further development of its open-ear headphones onto the market. The combination of advanced sound technology, smart design and high suitability for everyday use makes them a convincing choice for sporty, mobile and urban users.
The OpenFit 2 is now available for two weeks at an introductory price of €159 (instead of €189) in black and beige exclusively from Amazon.
