Our Verdict
Shokz OpenRun Pro Bone Conduction
Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Bone Conduction
The main reason to choose the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Bone Conduction over the Shokz OpenRun Pro Bone Conduction is for quality of life improvements like the USB-C charging port and the reduced vibrations associated with the first generation OpenRun Pro. While neither offers amazing sound quality, you may prefer the OpenRun Pro 2's extra EQ options. Both have the same IP55 rating with similar builds. If you own the OpenRun Pro already, there aren't many other reasons to get the OpenRun Pro 2 except for a slightly longer battery life.
