Key Features
Compact Mini Fit for Smaller Heads
OpenRun Mini features a headband approximately 0.83 inches shorter than the standard OpenRun model. This creates a more secure and snug fit for smaller head sizes or users who prefer less movement during activity, reducing bounce while running or working out.
Open-Ear Bone Conduction Sound
Using 8th-generation bone conduction technology and PremiumPitch 2.0+, the headphones deliver clear audio with improved bass and reduced vibration. Sound is transmitted through the cheekbones, leaving the ears completely open so you stay aware of traffic, people, and your surroundings.
Ultra-Lightweight Titanium Frame
At just 26 grams, OpenRun Mini is among the lightest headphones in the Shokz lineup. The full-wraparound titanium frame with soft silicone coating provides lasting comfort for extended wear without pressure inside or over the ears.
Long Battery Life with Quick Charge
Enjoy up to 8 hours of continuous music, calls, or podcasts on a single charge. A 10-minute quick charge delivers approximately 1.5 hours of additional playtime, making it easy to top up before a workout.
IP67 Water and Dust Resistance
The headphones are rated IP67, offering strong protection against sweat, rain, and dust. They can withstand temporary submersion and include a moisture-detection alert for safer charging, though they are not designed for swimming.

FAQs
Is the OpenRun Mini different from the standard OpenRun?
Yes. The OpenRun Mini has a shorter headband (about 0.83 inches / 21 mm shorter) designed for smaller heads or users who prefer a snugger fit. All other core features, including battery life, sound technology, and water resistance, remain the same.
How long does the battery last?
You get up to 8 hours of continuous playback on a full charge. A 10-minute quick charge provides approximately 1.5 hours of additional use. Standby time is up to 10 days.
Are they waterproof enough for swimming or heavy rain?
They are rated IP67, making them highly resistant to sweat, rain, and dust. They can handle temporary submersion, but Shokz does not recommend them for swimming.
Do they block outside noise?
No. The open-ear bone conduction design leaves your ear canals completely open so you can hear traffic, people, and your surroundings while listening to audio. This is intentional for safety during outdoor activities.
