The OpenFit 2 allows users to hear their environments at all times for safety. AI-powered microphones and dual drivers improve voice calls and music playback versus the prior model.

Shokz has unveiled the OpenFit 2 open-ear earphones for users who must hear their surroundings at all times. A large 17.3 mm bass driver has been added to the regular driver for better frequency reproduction with DualBoost technology. DirectPitch 2.0 and OpenBass 2.0 deliver music to the ears with less leakage. The earphones use dual MEMS microphones with AI software to pick up voice clearly in noisy environments. The app has four EQ presents and users can set two custom EQ presets. A Find My Earbuds feature is included in the app.

Each earbud weighs 0.33 oz. (9.3 g), with an IP55-rating for water and dust resistance. The earphones use soft Ultra-Soft Silicone 2.0 in black or beige for comfort. Ear hooks prevent loss while exercising, and physical control buttons eliminate touch-control failure when the fingers are sweaty.

The charging case weighs 1.87 oz. (53 g). A full charge provides 11 hours of runtime, and the charging case adds up 37 hours of runtime. A 10-minute quick charge provides users with 2 hours of runtime. The OpenFit uses Bluetooth 5.4 to pair with two sources simultaneously. The Shokz OpenFit 2 has an MSRP of $179.95 and is available for purchase on Amazon

Weighing only 9.4g (0.33 oz) each and wrapped in Shokz Ultra-Soft Silicone™ 2.0, they guarantee all-day comfort. Featuring Shokz's signature open-ear design, OpenFit 2 ensures you stay connected to the world around you, whether you are exploring the city or enjoying your favorite albums at the office.

The OpenFit 2' introduces an upgraded control system that combines multifunctional physical buttons and touch controls for precise operation. Whether skipping tracks, pausing and playing, or taking calls, every action feels seamless. Dual microphones in each earbud and advanced noise-canceling technology ensure crystal-clear calls, even in noisy environments.

With up to 11 hours of listening on a single charge and a 48-hour total runtime with the charging case, OpenFit 2 keeps pace with your busy lifestyle. Whether powering through a workout or tackling a long day, your favorite audio is always within reach.

The release of OpenFit 2 underscores Shokz's commitment to creating listening experiences that blend into your life.
