Our Verdict

Anker SoundCore Liberty Air 2 Truly Wireless

Shokz OpenRun Pro Bone Conduction

The Anker SoundCore Liberty Air 2 Truly Wireless are more versatile headphones than the Shokz OpenRun Pro Bone Conduction. The Anker are in-ears with very consistent audio delivery, they can block out more ambient noise around you, and their sound profile is more customizable as their companion app has a graphic EQ and presets. In comparison, the Shokz are bone conduction headphones, and while they aren't able to reproduce a thumpy bass, they're more comfortable. By design, they don't block out ambient sound, but you may prefer this if you want to monitor your surroundings while jogging outdoors or working in a collaborative office.
