Shokz claims its flagship open-ear wireless earbuds are its "most revolutionary" design ever

Shokz OpenFit Pro wireless earbuds in white and black.

Shokz has launched its latest pair of flagship wireless earbuds, the OpenFit Pro, and they just go to show that the open-ear trend isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Billed as being the company's "most revolutionary open-ear true wireless earbuds" ever, the flagship open buds feature noise reduction for the first time and aims to deliver "superior sound quality" across a range of different listening environments.

They are equipped with a dual-diaphragm driver design featuring large diaphragms for rich detail, "smooth highs" and "deep lows", while premium silicone and aluminium dome caps promise to minimise distortion for a smooth, punchy bass signature.

Like many of Shokz's established earbuds, the OpenFit Pro employ an open design with an over-ear hook for greater stability and security during workouts and other strenuous activities.

The flagship open earbuds are compatible with Dolby Atmos spatial audio with head tracking. They also employ open-ear noise reduction, wherein a triple-mic system and Shokz's adaptive algorithm aim to reduce unwanted noise in real time.

The new flagship buds grant 12 hours of playtime on a single charge and up to 50 hours with the charging case. If you're in a hurry, you can squeeze out four hours of listening time with a speedy 10-minutes quick charge.

Alongside that distinctive over-ear hook design, the OpenFit Pro offer an IP55 water and dust resistance rating, meaning the earbuds should be protected against splashes of water from any direction. A soft silicone finish and ultra-thin titanium alloy ear hooks, meanwhile, have been designed to provide outstanding comfortable and a hardy, flexible construction.

Available in two finishes – black or white – the Shokz OpenFit Pro are available now, priced at £219 / $250.
