Shokz has launched the second generation of its OpenFit headphones at CES 2025, with the OpenFit 2 available right now for $179 at Amazon. The original Shokz OpenFit were the first headphones from the brand that don’t use bone conduction technology, instead using air conduction to play audio without blocking the ear canal.

Improved comfort, double the drivers, better Bluetooth and much longer battery life can be found on Shokz's OpenFit 2 earbuds.

I wanted to love Shokz’s OpenFit 2, the company’s latest open-ear wireless earbuds debuting here at CES 2025. While Shokz made several improvements to the overall design and function, the sound can still be a tad hollow.

The OpenFit 2 — available in black or beige — keep the same basic formula of the original, but use a slightly tighter curve on the earhook, with inner surfaces covered in Shokz’s Ultra-Soft Silicone 2.0. Add to that a new flexible nickel-titanium alloy, Shokz says the new earbuds should be both more comfortable and more secure.
