Design and features:This Bluetooth wireless portable on-ear models has a non-isolating design that doesn't muffle outside sounds so you'll be able to hear that door bell ring, train announcement, or car horn when you are wearing these earphones.
Additional features:Has integrated volume control, microphone, and call connect/disconnect control. Has 4 EQ settings, standard, vocal, bass boost, treble boost and a customizable EQ. Quick charge delivers 2 hours of listening time with 10 mins of charge. Free Shokz app download for iOS and Android mobile devices adds additional features and software updates.
Sound quality:We found the OpenFit 2+ delivers sound quality that falls in the very good range - it reproduces music and voice very well although it does have some noticeable sonic quirks. With the Shokz app Equalizer set to standard (as received state of the earphone) the
bass (as in bass drums, bass guitars, stand-up bass, etc.) has good impact and goes fairly deep but is a bit prominent and boomy. The
midrange (voices, guitars, horns, etc.) is somewhat grainy and a bit hazy and congested (think sonic traffic jam) and a touch sibilant. Depending on fit, the
treble (cymbals, the upper range of violins, etc.) can be fairly extended but is somewhat sizzly (sounds that should have a delicate shimmer have a sound reminiscent of bacon frying) and smeared and a touch subdued. The sound also has a decent sense of liveliness and is open--sound-wise it seems like you don't have anything plugging up your ears, and does a decent job of recovering room ambience in the mid- to upper midrange, but is so-so elsewhere. Mixed character; warmish bass and midrange and coolish treble. The overall sound can be summarized as somewhat grainy, a bit bassy, hazy. The tone settings of the app do have a noticeable effect on the sound of these earphones.
Comfort and Fit:There is a sense of light pressure on the ears and some users may find that the earphones feel a bit heavy. As typical of on-ear models the ear pads might feel hot and/or sticky after prolonged use.
