I like to get higher quality for a higher price and I got it here. I first tried a waterproof iPod Shuffle (excellent) with ordinary short earbuds, but they kept leaking, which is simply unsolvable with this type of design. I skipped the cheaper option of sound transfer to the bone and reached for the best available - Shokz Openswim. It was worth it. Although it is not hi-fi sound quality, but considering the type of use (normal undemanding listening at home, swimming) it is quite sufficient.
However, an open ear does not automatically mean that you can hear and understand everything that is happening around you.
I haven't tried the handsfree features, I don't use them, but they are available.
sound to the bone works perfectly
with ordinary earplugs underwater luxury
absolute waterproofness, solid construction and compact design
comfortable and reliable fit on the head, they start to press slightly after a few hours, lightweight
control buttons in well thought out locations and a counter pressure point is always available when pressed
Bluetooth with multipoint pairing
more than enough memory capacity for music files
firmware updates with new features via mobile app
Easy and fast USB 3 connection to PC and file transfer
pleasant magnetic click in the charging cradle and charge indication
verbal messages from the device (playback mode, equalizer, charge level)
not completely intuitive control by pressing and holding three buttons, must be learned according to the current manual in the mobile app (not important)
need to understand the system of playing files in folders in combination, a mobile app is required to control it (not important)

So I am absolutely thrilled with these headphones. I should point out that I only bought them for swimming purposes, other models are definitely more suitable for normal listening. Until now, I had the SONY NW-WS413 for swimming, which are classic MP3 headphones in waterproof design, so I can compare with this classic model. Compared to the Sony, the sound is much more pronounced when swimming, I had to have the Sony at maximum volume, the Shokz can just be used at normal volume. In the water, you have the option of using the headphones alone or in combination with earplugs (included) - both are comfortable, so it's up to your preference. With Sony, I've had them fall out of my ears during swimming (once water enters the ear, nothing can be heard), get stuck in my cap, or get pulled out of the special swimming tips (they stayed in my ears, once one even floated away) - none of these things are a risk with Shokz headphones. 🙂 They also have a very nice app for the complete setup of the headphones, on the other hand they have less control buttons on them than Sony, so I would add a couple of them, but it's easy to get used to, everything you need is set and controlled with different double keys etc. There could be a protrusion on the buttons, which would help to identify the button better. Without the app, you can also switch modes and folders in MP3 mode (some reviews say you can't). The headphones plug into a cradle that has a USB-C connector, so they can be connected to newer iPhones directly (they show up in Files as a drive), and they also charge when connected to an iPhone (Sony can do this too). You may need to buy an adapter to connect it to your computer, but I imported the music via cable from my iPhone. The earplugs are nice, I didn't even know about them, but I didn't mind swimming without them. The case is awesome, rubber with holes to dry. Summing up - the sound is great, with the Sony it faded out in proportion to the immersion (higher depth, weaker listening), listening through the bone doesn't have that, the controls a bit messy, but it's just a matter of habit. I can only recommend them, they are worth it and they will also suit for running and other sports.

Headphones are the bomb, swimming is suddenly a whole other level. I'm thrilled. Except I didn't count on the cable being usb C and not usb, so I had to get a laptop adapter to record songs and an adapter to charge it, since I still have the old digs with the usb end at home. It's not a cheap toy, but it's definitely worth it. I'm looking forward to trying for a run.
great packaging
good sound
met expectations
super case
super earplugs
you must have a usb C adapter (to charge them)
necessary to have a usb C and usb adapter (to upload songs)
a bit messy controls, but only at the beginning

I purchased for swimming and there it meets all expectations. Listening to music/podcasts while swimming is absolutely amazing and I recommend it to everyone
Comfort
Holds perfectly when swimming
Very nice case with drainage holes
Sound quality when swimming ( it is necessary to have earplugs attached)
The plugs necessary for swimming probably won't last long and I'll have to get some new ones
Outside the pool (e.g. when running) the sound isn't exactly miraculous

Extremely comfortable
Very light, I can't feel them on my head
no cuts, no bites.
holds perfectly when swimming, even when rolling.
very good sound quality, even in the water, which is absolutely great
the bass "massages" the temples, it is very pleasant
fits under helmets of all kinds
lasts long on a single charge
large storage for offline playback, which is crucial especially when swimming
the product is practically perfect, unfortunately the manufacturer was not able to incorporate Spotify for offline download of songs (as is the case with smart watches, e.g. )
Bluetooth does not work underwater (with any device) and therefore you cannot play songs from your watch - you need to download songs to your headphones in mp3 format, which is a bit annoying. - you can't download songs from spotify, you have to "get it" yourself on the internet.

Sound quality. When running and swimming.
It's a perfect fit behind the ears. (maybe only 2 times in 2 months when I jumped into the pool too fast)
I'm used to a battery life of around 30 hours, these have around 10.

I'll admit I bought it to try and return it. I'm in love and I'm not going back
Super sound. Especially in combination with clogs
The bass flatters the bone, which is very nice
The sound quality is much better than swimming only headphones from the same manufacturer which I have had for almost 2 years
Perfect microphone quality
