Great for Loud Work Environments
By MISF1T on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2025
Like many of you, I have went through many & I mean Many, pairs of Bluetooth earbuds. All of them have fallen short of expectations. They didn’t fit well, sound good, or picked up too much background noise. That is until I got my Shokz. I heard about them from a coworker who operates a Road Grader. He claimed that they work great, sound quality is good, calls are clear etc. (we have heard this all before) So, I researched them a bit. The reviews seemed solid,( taken with a grain of salt) I received them in an off hitch. They arrived charged and ready to pair. Pairing was simple, the buttons are simple as well. No double triple clicking etc. the app for setting up is straightforward and easy to follow. Now, for performance: First wear was on a commercial flight. With earplugs in, these performed excellent. Beyond expectation. After I landed I continued to stream my podcast without the earplugs. Nice and clear, while still being aware of my surroundings. At work: I drive off-road trucks. These things are old and loud. Once again, extremely impressed with performance. On calls, there is some background noise but it is manageable. I can “hear” the conversation well. The standby battery life lasts longer than my 12 hour shifts. No discomfort from wearing them at all. Glasses frames fit nicely with them as well. Safety department does not seem to have any issues with them. They are not “earbuds” and do not block out radio traffic or other communication. I am very pleased with this purchase. I’ve had them for two weeks, so have nothing to report on how long they will last in a work environment, but it looks promising. Hopefully this review will help someone make their decision on work Bluetooth devices. Be safe, and take care.

the search for bluetooth earbuds or headphones continues
By McJeeee on Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2025
So this is another failed purchase for me. I'm so frustrated. My main challenge is fit. I'm an average height female and I am slim but don't feel "petite" in terms of my bone structure. And I don't look like a pinhead... But I have discovered through these recent purchases that my ears and skull must be unusually petite. What I like about these Shokz Mini _______ **They actually have a Mini size for folks with smaller measurements, despite not fitting me **The bluetooth is very strong and I can stay connected to my computer while walking around about 3/4 of our 1 story 2000 square foot home, better than any other bluetooth earbuds/headphones I own **Simple interface, no manual needed, no fat finger mistakes, love it **Great idea for outdoor activities because I can still hear cars, people, pets, nature for the purpose of staying safe **Comfortable even when I wear glasses, which is what is driving the search for a new bluetooth audio headset/earbuds. What I don't like about these _______ **The fit. Despite being "mini" sized, I can easily fit all five fingers with room for more in the floppy space between the headband and my head. The headband catches on my collar and presses in on the sofa and high backed work chair. So I can choose text neck posture or let my head take the pressure. In a couple words: these hurt after about 45 minutes. The only workarounds would be to wear tops with no collar (like a tank top) and not ever sit down in my work chair or sofa. **Voice audio like video and phone calls sounds terrible **The perceived volume and audio quality adjusts up and down if my jaw is moving (drinking water, talking, eating, chewing gum). Not a deal breaker but it's a weird experience. And I'm a gum chewer. **More of a nitpick: It's 2025 and these came with a USB type A cable. Seriously? What I've tried so far: _______ ***Shokz: audio quality and fit are both poor, even the Mini size ***Beats Fit Pro: solid audio, exceptionally poor fit. The wings are too long for my petite ears. ***Sony WF-1000XM5: incredible audio, probably the best I've heard in bluetooth. But the fit is off. XS ear tip is too small. S is too big. If I chew gum or eat or talk one of the ear buds falls out. If I try to adjust the earbud position there's no place to touch them without turning them off, turning the volume up, skipping a song, ending a call. It's a poor user interface. Also the best audio quality is only obtained with a 3rd party app + account that captures a frightening amount of personal data. I deleted it as soon as I saw what it would do and accepted the lower quality audio, but they keep falling out or they hurt if I mash the larger size eartip in my ear. ***Airpods Pro models: sound okay but not nearly good enough for the price. Poor fit. Always fall out of my ears. Also very delicate. Break easily. Replacement = $$$. Apple Care is more of a prepaid discount than a full on warranty with these. ***Airpods Max: My favorite for a few years despite the weight and expense. But I recently got bifocals and didn't want to do the one contact lens for distance and one contact lens for reading solution because it messes up my dominant eye for sports. Net: contacts are out All Over the ear style headphones push the glasses bow into my head which hurts. Ouch! Bose is up next. This is getting so expensive. Even if I had an unlimited budget I worry I won't find a fit that is close enough to stay in my ears, not hurt, and sound OK.
