Shokz, the open ear headphones specialist, has recently unveiled two new products to their lineup – the OpenFit Air and OpenSwim Pro. The OpenFit Air, priced at £119 in the UK, is designed to be ultra-lightweight and secure, featuring an ergonomic ear hook for comfort. Weighing only 8.7g, these headphones offer a soft silicone finish for a comfortable fit for various ear shapes. The Air-Earhook design with a flexible Ni-Ti memory alloy keeps the headphones securely in place, ensuring minimal pressure during long listening sessions.
The cavity design and teardrop-shaped cross-section of the OpenFit Air allow for a snug fit, while the DirectPitch technology provides a natural audio experience. With Shokz OpenBass Air and a low-frequency enhancement algorithm, users can enjoy deep bass and detailed richness. The headphones offer six hours of playtime on a single charge and up to 28 hours with the charging case. Additionally, a quick 10-minute charge provides an extra two hours of listening time.
Leon Du, Europe Market Director at Shokz, expressed excitement about the new product, stating, “With OpenFit Air, you will be able to stay connected to family, friends, and colleagues, or remain situationally aware and motivated during your workout.” The OpenFit Air will be available in three colors – pink, white, and black, with a smart matte silicone finish.
On the other hand, the OpenSwim Pro is Shokz’s first Bluetooth and MP3 compatible sports headphone utilizing bone-conduction technology. These headphones feature an open ear design and an ultra-lightweight frame, allowing users to maintain situational awareness while enjoying music during activities like swimming, running, or cycling. The flexible Nickel-Titanium alloy frame, combined with a soft silicone material, ensures comfort without obstructing other gear such as swimming caps or goggles.
Users can easily switch between Bluetooth streaming and MP3 listening modes with a simple press of a button or through the Shokz app. The OpenSwim Pro offers a versatile and convenient listening experience for active individuals seeking quality sound without compromising their awareness of their surroundings.
