One correction: the Oladance OWS Pro can be turned on and off without the case thanks to a power button on the buds! Thanks for pointing it out guys 🙏
Wrong wrong wrong. I just bought the $180 Shokz and they lasted 3.6 hours at 40% volume. Yes they are comfortable, but thats all they have going for them.
When i activate voice assistant, the audio comes through the phone. The audio quality is the WORST, with crackling at higher volume.
Anyone else expect during the mic tests to go "pop pop popsicle, ice ice icicle, test test testicle"? 😂😂😂😂
They've got to be vaking with us...
Pop Pop popsicle, ice ice icicle, test test testing, 1 2 3. That's going to be stuck in my head for awhile. Thanks guys! Great video! ☝️🙏👌🤙
You guys are actually brilliant. Congratulations on a thorough, detailed and humorous upload!
Cheers!
Thanks for the effort. I was taking notes and you did an amazing job.
Glad it was helpful!
You're the only RUclips reviewers I've come across who called out the OWS Pro for their crackling and static. Support told me this was normal on all headphones and not to be concerned! I sent them back for a refund. Been using Shokz OpenFit and very happy, but tempted to try the AeroFit Pro now! Thanks for your honest reviews.
Cheers Andrew! We're definitely not afraid to say what we face 😉 #notsponsored
Are you serious? Support told you cracking and static was normal for ALL headphones?!?!? That's a WTF moment.
@@STR82DVDYes, it shocked me too! Exact quote: "The low-level hissing/ticking/clicking sound audible in the background you mention may be white noise, and we'd like to explain to you that white noise is a common problem with all speakers and headphones; it is generated when electronic devices operate. It is a normal phenomenon, not the quality problem of the headset itself, so there is no need to worry". They also told me the battery draining faster on the left than it did on the right (way faster) was normal. When I insisted that both of these were faults, they assured me they would be fixed in the next product - yea, that really doesn't help me! Much happier with my Shokz, thank you very much.
If that is your concern the Tozo's have that too. Tozo's still well worth it imo. Soundcore Aerofit's don't have it, but I prefer the Tozo's over soundcore for various reasons like fit, comfort, and the sound quality is comparable enough. Soundcore does have the best bass imo, they also also comfortable for about an 1hr before I started feeling discomfort on top of my ear that only gets worse with each passing minute. Tozo's you can wear for anywhere between 2-4hrs before possibly noticing slight discomfort but even then it still doesn't get that much worse. OWS Pro's have the are comparable are comparable in overall comfort to the Tozo's but if you have very small ears it won't be an amazing fit (still comfortable tho). Should be fine with regular or large ears. Sound quality is the best of these 3 buds (they all sound very good, just different but they are slightly better sounding overall).
@@gamechanger114 I can assure you it's not present on the Openrock Pro nor should it be.
I need to get around to trying one of these open ear buds. They sound like they are getting better!
They really are, Chad!
Bro's youre greate with youre reviews❤❤❤ thank you so much
I always love your videos, thanks again for your incredible job
Glad you like them!
Thank you for this comparison!
Came here for the review on tozo open and glad i did. Thanks. I can get them for 45 bucks today.
Thanks for the extensive reviews, great video
Glad you like them!
Just got the Tozos (on sale for $49.99!!!) thanks to y'all-hadn't heard of them prior to this review. Appreciate your thoroughness!
Thanks again for a marvelous hand pikt selection of buds😊
Haha hope you enjoyed those piks! ;)
@@DHRME Are these open headphone good for online class????
Great reviews DHRME! You helped us with your helpful details and tips. How about comparing buds live with them?
We've done a video open ear in ear form factors as well.
Great great video guys. You are the only to see the tozo open buds in the horizont, and Its true, they are one of the best open earbuds
We agree!
I'm liking the 1more S50. I thought I wasn't going to like the ear foot, but actually I don't even notice it's there. The sound is 1more signature. My biggest fault with them is the limited controls. The wear sensor is a good substitute for a pause button.
Had a Phone call experience with cycling which was perfect. Thanks Shokz openfit.
Two days ago on Amazon I bought the Tozo's for 49.99, plus a 2 year warranty on the cheap. So far so good. I haven't used it for calls yet, but for music and podcast they sound great. Great battery life as well.
Great video guys!! Debating if I should buy tozo or soundcore aerofit having small ears, which one would you recommend? (I couldn't find pictures together to compare their size/adaptability)
Thanks!
Cannot imagine the open-ear buds go this far, so many new launches here! Well, I have OpenRock Pro and am super satisfied with its bass!! I really like them- lightweight, great sound, fits my ear well. Anybody here has OpenRock S or 1more SE please? How do they sound?
Great review✨ I have tried many and there doesn’t seem to be a perfect one out there.
It’s like finding a perfect meal or a perfect song. 😀
No auto-pause for the Open Shokz was the deal killer for me. Almost got them, but didn't thanks to your review!
The Shokz openfit currently have the play/pause double tap and long press on left ear bud for volume up vice versa in left right ear bud. Shokz is the best in my opinion.
Thanks!
Thank YOU!!
One more thing to maybe add to your testung arrangement: wearing comfort for people with glasses. We tried the Openrock S, the 1more fit and the Truefree O1. The Openrock were unfomfortable with glasses, the Truefree remained with us. The 1more were out of the "battle" as they stopped working only hours after unpackaging
1more quality sucks overtime. The sound gets garbled, unfortunately. Glad I purchased the aerofit pro by Soundcore.
i have 1more s50, my first open earpuds (i use sony 1000xm4 daily) i realy like the sound of the s50, clear and wide, and it s connect perfectly to my laptop and phone (windows and android - samsung s22)
Between the Soundcore AeroFit Pro and an d OpenRock Pro, which do y'all recommend?
Soundcore Aerofit Pro for sure!
Omg I can't even! Thank you for washing out the hey"google" lmao
이렇게 많은 종류가 있었는지 몰랐네요... 감사합니다.
Hello. Have used OpenRock pro, 1MORE fit S50. Finally Shokz openfit , which is the best comfortable and sound and call earbuds. However waiting for app in Turkey. Hope in January. Peace
I have the Oladance ows pro headset. One of the things said as far as having to turn them back on by placing them in the charging case isn’t true. On the inner part of each bud is a power indicator that is used to turn them on and off. Great reviews though. Definitely like to show this video to other people that are interested in open ear style. 😁
Thank you! And you're absolutely right - our bad!
can i use the spatial audio and head tracking with aerofits pro on a SamsungGalaxy device?
Preview picture is extremely awesome! 😎
Glad you think so!
SoundCore AeroFit Vs SoundPEATS GoFree2 which one to be good or your review on this
Great video as usual... I have bought 3 or 4 of these based off your recommendations... I use the Open Fit more than others, then the Aerofit Pro's 2nd... I just got the 1More S50. I don't like they don't have multi point on them... major con. Guess I'll be switching back to the Open Fit and Aerofit Pro
Which one has more subbass
Are any of these good for gaming? I'm sick of having headphone hair, and earbuds hurt to wear and fall out all the time!
Thank you. I wonder why openfit is ranked higher than oladance since in your other videos openfit seems to be ranked lower than oladance.
Is anyone else also interested in a similar review for on ear headphones? I tend to stay away from earphones that are trendy (i.e, Beats) or brands that oversaturate the market with multiple similar looking headphones such as JBL and Sony. The over-the-ears I rock on a regular basis are the Jabra Move. They're comfortable, light weight, low- profile, and I don't necessarily need ANC or any fancy CODEC to hear my podcasts and music just fine. You get audio quality and sufficient bass to satisfy most casual listeners and win over many critical ones as well.
Testing is the best part 😂
Hello, i just bought the Tozo OpenBuds and really like it. however, I'm curious how to tweak/customise the EQ (as you've shown in the video. i tried to tap it but can't access the user defined EQ, only the available Tozo presets
How is the sound leakage in the aerofit pro?
Thanks for another great review. I ended up buying the Tozos and I'm pretty impressed. I actually like them more than the Gen 1 Oladance I gave to my partner for her last birthday. As I didn't use the affiliate link (the official Tozo eBay store was much cheaper), let me "super thank" you via RUclips for your work.
Just one question: how did you activate the personalized EQ in the app? Somehow I can only use the presets. Or did Tozo remove this feature?
I also have this doubt. I just sent an email to Tozo support, as this feature is very good and a big differentiator for competitors.
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks! I missed it! I could access the EQ last I checked. We're at CES now, we'll check and get back to you!
@@DHRME No problem! Have fun at CES! Forgot one thing: I'm using Android, maybe it only works with the iOS app...
I've used them mainly with Android before. Will check after we get back! :)
@@DHRME Is the customizable EQ only on the Android app? BTW, Thank you for your great reviews.
Dudes having real mad eargasms!💦
I have just bought the OpenRock s have only had them 1 day for me the bass is just fine i don’t like over the top bass so if you like base heavy these probably won’t be heavy enough for you they’re punchy but not overly bassy mods seam about right also the treble definitely keep them on the rock setting the relax mode takes away the depth to their sound I,m 75 and the sound suits my ear younger people would probably want more bass
Bro suggest me the best EQ settings for Jabra Elite 10
Got the Openbuds, listened to them at home rhat night and liked them. Took them out for a 10km run and by 7km they were beeping from the sweat on the touch panels (which i was worried about but thought surely at least one channel tested this) and right side completely shut down. Put them back in the case and the the right side has a very quiet squeal and gets warm but still stuffed. I watched all the worthless youtube videos trying to decide on these or 1more s50...
Although you can turn the OWS Pro back on without the case, I never leave it behind because I know I’d lose/crush them without it.
Haha yep you're right!
ive got shockz opent fit pro bone conduction head phones and I'm thinking of trying open ear buds style headphones. The sound core aerofit pros sound like my next purchase after my current shokz bone conductors break.
I am thinking the same. I have the non pro shokz mini version. I like them, but the mic is not great, and I like to take calls while walking the dogs or don't have to stop biking for people to hear me. I also like that they say your ears don't get fatigued. I love the band for biking and that it won't stick out all weird. I have a small head and even the minis I have so much space between the band and my neck lol.
I have the soundcore liberty pro 3 when I don't care about hearing the world around me and the sound is way better than airpod pros and beats imo.
How do they compare with the TOZO OpenEgo?
"ob-ob obcicle," "ce-ice icicle", from which then follows "tes-tes - testing"???? Surely it's gotta be "tes-tes-testicle"!
Thanks guys. Just ordered my tozo for $45!!!!! Should arrive today. Fun fun.
Got them. They are surprisingly good!!!
@@Ambrosius13Very good indeed. Just got mine out of curiosity and they've replaced my Openfit's which originally replaced my Oladance OW2 2... Lol
@DHRME
I have the openrock pro, really like the sound of it, but the fit isn't as comfy for me because of small ears. They can fall out after 1hours or so unless i makes the hook small, but then my ears will hurt a lot. I want to try soundcore aerofit pro or tozo openbuds, which one will u recommend for smaller ears ? Also which one got better sound ? Are bass as special as openrockk pro ?
Soundcore has a lot of bass. Almost too much. :)
@DHRME thanks for the reply :D I'm actually not a bass head, I love vocal/mids more for music, but also like quality of bass :p is still aerofit better than the tozo ? How about the fit for small ears ?
Also, there's soundpeats gofree 2 just released :)
In fact, OWS Pro have power on/off button on each of the buds.
You're very right! Thanks for pointing that out.
i ordered 1more s50 and soundcore aero fit pro at the same time. i used them both for a week and i like the 1more better than the soundcore when it comes to sound, plus 1 more has gaming mode. i returned my soundcore and ordered shokz for testing again vs my 1more 😊
Haha long live free returns!
Which one has more sub-bass
@@Blu3_777 non of the above. i am currently using TOZO open buds and it's the best when it comes to bass
Do you guys enjoy using open-ear buds in the office (both company office and home office)? Or prefer the semi in-ear form factor like airpods 3 ?
Home office, yes. Semi open ears are usually a challenge to get a good fit, at least for me (Kevin). So open ears or in-ears are my preference.
@@DHRME Thanks! Used to own OWS 2 but found the sound slightly subpar comparing to airpods 3 hence the question ;)
Hi guys, I'm in the USA, and just bought the Tozo Open Buds based on your review. There great, but the only issue I have is that the app won't let me adjust the eq like it lets you in the video. Do you know if it's different in America vs The Netherlands?
I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. I also have an iPhone 11. Thanks
That's strange, shouldn't be. Maybe you need a firmware update?
Hello may I ask, how high is the volume and what are the settings of soundcore aerofit pro when you tested the battery life
I have my own pair and tested it at 80% volume and LDAC on and it lasted me about 8-8 1/2 hrs of continuous music
19:38 Oladance are by far the best buds I have ever had..I had a pair of Shokz..I had to be careful when taking off a sweater, they fell off more than once...And I dont think the sound quality was really "All That" for the price...Also think that the fingertip controls are ludicrous, No single tap? All double taps..I sent them back and got a pair of Oladance and OMG, the sound quality and comfort almost knocked me over, just on the default setting the bass is thumping but not overwhelming the midst and highs..There is also a back of the ear counter weight that although not adding weight locks them in..With one taps and an ingenious sliding of the finger to adjust the volume, the Oladance is far superior to Shokz...Oh, and btw: they come with 2 drivers in each bud... 19:38
The tozo open buds are bomb i had them before the reviews came out. Don't regret buying them. They last forever 😂 i think they get above what they are rated for battery life. I probably charge them 1 times every couple days
Same here. I've been using tozo for a few years now. Was glad to get the open ear because I can't do in ear anymore due to reaction to the ear buds. Love the tozo open ear
Thank you for the great roundup. Could you please tell me how much each tozo earbud weighs? thanks
soundpeats go free 2 the best ❤
Please make detailed review on Sonic Lamb Headphone🎧.
Which one is best for sleeping? Especially side sleeper.
I have the OWS 2, Openfit's and Tozo
My favourites are the Tozo but for side sleeping, definitely the Openfit's for me.
Yeah Tozo's are best for side sleeping. They sound great, are comfortable and provide a versatile fit.
I actually love the idea of no-battery case of OWS 2. That way there's much less battery degradation because of a lot of micro-charges, so I can use full 19hrs capacity and decide when to charge.
Of course, next level would be to have a battery-packed case but with a feature to charge only upon reaching certain battery level (say less than 20%). Sweet dreams :)
Nice perspective 😉
What vakman mean?

Soundpeats Gofree 2+ winner
Seems like a good review, but having tried the Openrock Pro buds for a few days now, I find it weird that you didn't mention an obvious and non-subjective design flaw: the case keeps popping open! If both buds are inside and their flexible bits aren't folded to their original position, the lid closes but pops open right away. Maybe my case is faulty? I want to keep them in the shape that fits my ear, but that makes the case pop open, so I'm using a rubber band(!) around it to keep it shut(!!). I think I'll end up returning them (should be possible within 40 days), mainly for this, as well as a few other things: connectivity is a bit glitchy sometimes; the button can't be used to skip to next track; sometimes the button causes no reaction; the comfort level is high but not as high as I had hoped, for my very sensitive skin; the battery life seems to be a big lie (tho more testing is needed)... (to be fair, I do like a few things: they're very light, quite comfortable, the bluetooth range is very far, sound seems good)
I think there's definitely a threshold beyond which you can't close the case. Maybe we didn't reach that threshold.
Hallo mannen. Ik ben zelf geïnteresseerd in de aerofit pro van Soundcore. Zij bieden deze alleen niet in Europa aan. Enig idee of dit snel gaat gebeuren?😂
Geen idee helaas. :(
Ah jammer. Toch bedankt. ❤ Jullie video's zien er goed uit. Een van de betere kanalen van Nederlanders.
Can you also use on laptop for Microsoft Teams in de office?
Shokz
Yes!
Great review !! Popsicle...Icicle and when you said Test...test... I thought you were gonna say
Why did the SoundPEATS Gofree 2 not make your list?
It arrived after we made this video. We made a separate video on it though.
Best Buy has the Shokz Open Fit buds on display. Upon testing, I found the bass to be lacking.
Yeah I just got a pair and notice the same thing
Happy TOZO owner.
Great open earbuds
Popsicle then icicle I thought the third word was going to be testicle 😂
I bought the Tozo OpenBuds at a discounted price. They work and sound very well. Strangely one of the buds does not click as loud as the other, but still stays in the position set. Very surprised the Tozo came second, making them a super bargain in this company.
No JBL sound sense?
Why jbl soundgear sense are not tested? These are t probanly top in the calass also...how do you see them if you had a chance to test them? (Jbl)
Ok. Based on your recommendations I bought a set of Tozos.
What do you think?
@@DHRME Amazon. They're supposed to arrive on Monday. Probably somewhere around Wednesday I'll follow up.
@@DHRMEwell, as it turns out, I was super impressed with the sound, although their appearance is a little clunky. And especially happy that I got them for $35 on Black Friday.
And then practically went deaf in my right ear when the right side started popping deafeningly with anything that had significant base. Oops.
So, not so good. Going back. I'm going to try again with a replacement set cuz I was really happy until they started popping. Probably a defective set. Oh well.
@@DHRMEwell, sad to say, while I love you guys, I absolutely cannot go with you with respect to the tozo open ear buds. My deeply considered, highly technical description of them would be: they suck.
As I mentioned, in the first pair I got the right bud would pop deafeningly when confronted with any bass. So I sent those back for a replacement set.
The new ones arrived today and the (again) right earbud is completely DOA. Don't know what it is with tozo and right earbuds.
So... They're going back. Not trying a third time because Amazon doesn't like that kind of behavior.
They are crap.
Still think you guys are great, though.
My review on Amazon of them is going to leave scars.
@@captainterrific ooh. Thanks for letting us know. We've not had that issue unfortunately. And I've been daily driving these for a while. Also doesn't seem to be the case from the tons of comments recommending it. But thank you very much for sharing. We love you too Captain!

Good video but the humor is abysmal.
First, fantastic format. Second, the OpenRock Pro come in three colors, not just silver(white) and black variants. Why Oneodio markets the silver variant as white I'll never know. I was as surprised as anyone when my BEIGE Openrock Pro shipped to my address but there it was. It wasn't what I ordered but hey, I'm keeping them because I'm pretty sure I won't be shipping them back to China. I was absolutely blown away by the bass presence with these critters. Just amazing.
I'll upgrade my membership to the new membership tier tonight lads.
Cheers Hunter, thank you! Prepare for the oral... err... Announcement
@@DHRMELol. You two lads are literally the twin Shakespeares of sexual innuendo. LMAO. BTW... Rohan, stop breaking crap. Also Kevin, I'm pretty sure you declared war in Apple fanboys last video. I laughed and laughed lad.
Hello, do you have both OpenRock Pro and S? Which one would you recommend? hard time to decide which one I should get. :(
@@Itssomebody-mz5mh Don't buy the Openrock S if you can afford the Openrock Pro. That would be my advice. Compared to the Openrock Pro, the sound is thin on the Openrock S although the mic setup on the S variant is not bad for calls whereas the phone call quality on the Pro is just ok.
I am feeling the same!! My OpenRock Pro sounds amazing, especially the bass. I never have a second doubt about this shopping choice after having it although I did place the order in the first place with concerns. lol.
Great job guys!!
This video helps me very much!
I decided to buy soundcore one!!🥹
Haha cheers!
