According to ithome.com, Shokz has launched the OpenRun Pro 2S, which are open-type bone conduction sports earbuds with Dolby Audio support. The specs aren’t officially confirmed yet, and the brand doesn’t have a dedicated product page for this model. These earbuds feature dual-way drivers: a metallic tweeter with a dual coil and a 18 × 11 mm low-frequency ring diaphragm. They also come with IP57 protection and connect via Bluetooth 5.3.
Friends, by tradition, if a news post gets 100 likes, I get the model in hand and make a review for you. And of course subscribe to the review — I will email you the moment it goes live on MyChooz.
The model’s standout feature is its audio setup: a metallic tweeter with a dual voice coil and dual tongues handles the highs, while a custom 18 × 11 mm ring diaphragm is responsible for the bass. Dolby Audio support is also claimed. In this review, I’ll be testing whether Dolby Audio makes music and podcasts more immersive and expands the soundstage.
The earbuds are protected to the IP57 standard, meaning they can handle dust and brief submersion in water – perfect for sweaty workouts and rainy conditions. They weigh in at approximately 30.3 g (with a tolerance of ± 0.5 g). For control, you get physical buttons, which are handy when wet fingers might otherwise struggle with touch sensors. They’re available in dark black and orange, plus a limited edition celebrating Eliud Kipchoge.
The earbuds connect via Bluetooth 5.3 and can be paired with two devices simultaneously. You can expect up to 12 hours of playback on a single charge, with a full charge taking about 60 minutes. If you’re short on time, a quick five-minute charge will give you three hours of listening.
Price and where to buy. The initial price on the Chinese market is $180 (1298 yuan). The earbuds appeared on the JD.com platform on August 27, 2026.
Friends, write in the comments what you think of this new model and what you’re most interested in learning from the review – I’ll do my best to answer everything.
What I’m interested in checking in the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2S review. My main focus is seeing how Dolby Audio actually impacts the sound with bone conduction – will the soundstage widen, or will the difference be subtle? Second, I want to gauge how noticeable the 30 grams feel on your head during a long run and how well the IP57 rating holds up against rain and sweat. For sound comparison, I’ll be using the best models from our ranking of bone conduction earbuds as my reference.
According to brand releases and publications — the official spec page is not out yet; the specs will be confirmed against it.
