Pros & Cons
Pros
Shokz are an open ear headphone with bone conduction. I am impressed at just how good they sound while avoiding the need to cut yourself off from the world. A little weird at first as you get used to not having anything in your ears!
Noise cancelling is great if you are in a noisy environment. Works well as phone headset, even while cycling. Strong bluetooth signal.
Great battery life. Rock solid button layout. I hope that this one lasts longer.
Cons
No matter how good the comfort, the connectivity, the sound, they are a useless piece of elegantly designed junk if you cannot charge them. The headphones stop working 2 months after purchase. This defeats the purpose.

The sound quality is impressive given the open design.
I would not say i had the best sound quality out there, pretty low sound quality for the price
Don't expect audiophile quality or even comparison with headphones with anc.
