Noise-canceling earbuds are great for flights and focusing, but they’re not always ideal for outdoor workouts. The last-gen Shokz OpenRun Pro’s open-ear design lets you enjoy music while staying aware of approaching cars, cyclists, and other potential hazards, and right now they’re on sale for $109 ($50 off) at Amazon, Walmart, and B&H Photo. That matches their all-time low price, which we haven’t seen since January.
[Product: Shokz OpenRun Pro | https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09BVXT8TJ/?tag=theverge02-20, https://goto.walmart.com/c/482924/565706/9383?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FShokz-OpenRun-Pro-Premium-Bone-Conduction-Open-Ear-Bluetooth-Headphones-for-Sports-with-Cooling-Wristband-Black%2F997292021]
Unlike traditional earbuds, the OpenRun Pro rests just outside your ears and uses bone conduction to deliver sound. That means you can listen to music or podcasts while still hearing what’s going on around you, offering extra peace of mind in busy areas or when it’s getting dark. The lightweight titanium wraparound frame is designed to stay secure during runs and other workouts, and an IP55 rating means you don’t have to worry about getting caught in a little rain. You also get up to 10 hours of battery life and multipoint Bluetooth support, allowing you to stay connected to two devices at once.
That said, these are no longer Shokz’ flagship headphones, so you do miss out on a few upgrades. Notably, the OpenRun Pro 2 delivers noticeably richer bass — a long-standing problem with bone conduction headphones — along with USB-C charging and AI-powered noise cancellation. At $179, though, they’re also significantly more expensive. If it’s the open-ear design that appeals to you most and you want to save, the original OpenRun Pro remains a good investment.
