Shokz OpenRun Pro Mini is the cream of the crop within Shokz's range of groundbreaking bone conduction headphones for sports. On this "Mini" model, the headband is 2 cm shorter than on the "regular OpenRun Pro," making it ideal for individuals with smaller heads.
Aftershokz has rebranded to Shokz, and their products have also received new names. OpenRun Pro is their latest flagship model, surpassing the previous top model, Aeropex, as well as the current younger sibling to this model, OpenRun (without "Pro").
Shokz OpenRun Pro Mini has undergone a series of improvements and the introduction of new features. It now features the brand-new 9th generation of the groundbreaking "bone conduction" technology, including two new bass amplifiers that deliver fantastic and previously unheard-of sound quality! Furthermore, they have extended the battery life, reduced the charging time, and added a quick-charging feature that can provide you with 1.5 hours of music playback in just 5 minutes.
Bone Conduction - Music Straight into the Cranium The most remarkable feature of Shokz OpenRun Pro Mini is the revolutionary and award-winning bone conduction technology. It makes Shokz the ultimate wireless Bluetooth headset for sports like running and cycling. Music is transmitted as vibrations through the cheekbones in front of the ear, providing a crystal-clear audio experience inside the head while allowing you to hear sounds from your surroundings and traffic. The experience of music playing vividly inside your head while remaining aware of your surroundings can best be likened to being in a room with a SurroundSound system, where you can simultaneously engage in conversations with people around you. The built-in microphone operates in the same way by capturing sound directly from the vibrations in the cheekbone. This results in a clean and undisturbed sound quality, even when you're in motion at high speeds.
