Our Verdict
TOZO T6 Truly Wireless
Shokz OpenRun Bone Conduction
The TOZO T6 Truly Wireless and the Shokz OpenRun Bone Conduction have different strengths, and you may prefer one over the other. The TOZO are budget-friendly in-ears with a more bass-heavy sound profile suitable for genres like EDM and hip-hop. They can also block out a good amount of ambient noise passively. However, the Shokz are bone-conduction headphones that allow you to monitor your surroundings while listening to audio. They support multi-device pairing, meaning you can connect them with two devices simultaneously. They have a longer continuous battery life, and they're more comfortable.
