Weighing just 1 oz (27.3g), these bone-conduction headphones feature a comfortable dual-ear neckband design and are dust and water-resistant up to 6.6 feet (IP68), making them suitable for swimming and other demanding environments. With Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity, a built-in bone-conduction microphone with noise cancellation, and up to 9 hours of battery life (6 hours for listening), they offer clear audio and communication. The OpenSwim Pro also supports multipoint pairing for up to two devices and can be managed via the Shokz app for Android and iOS.
Choose between open-back (spacious sound, leaks noise) and closed-back (isolating, punchy bass) designs based on your environment. For wireless headphones, prioritize comfort and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance. Available from $139.95.
Wired headphones have no ongoing costs besides occasional earpad replacements. Wireless headphones function as consumables, as their batteries will eventually degrade after a few years of daily use.
