The usual asking price is $180, but it’s the first day of the Amazon Big Spring sale, so you won’t need to pay full price. Amazon has dropped them down to $140. Prefer Best Buy? They’re on sale there too, also for $140. We love these unique bone-conduction Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 headphones as they’re lightweight, offer superb sound and have an ergonomic fit on the back of your head. However, if you have some audio gear to trade in, you might be able to get them down to Amazon’s price.
Bone-conduction headphones have been available on the market for some time. David Carnoy, our headphone reviewer, hailed the OpenRun Pro 2s as one of the first pairs to offer truly good sound. In fact, they earned a top spot on our list of the best running headphones of 2026 and an Editors’ Choice award.
This is thanks to the new and improved hybrid-driver design that provides fuller bass tones, which these kinds of headphones typically lack. They’re also fairly rugged with an IP55 weather-resistance rating and have an impressive 12-hour battery life. Plus, solid voice-calling performance makes it easy to stay connected while you’re on the road or trails.

Why this deal matters
Earning a CNET Editors’ Choice award and a spot on our lists of the best headphones for running and working out, it’s fair to say that these Shokz are some of the absolute best bone-conduction headphones on the market. In fact, CNET’s audio expert David Carnoy found very little not to love about them besides their steep price, which is less of an issue now that they’re 20% off for Amazon’s Big Spring Sale.
