What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives conflicting Bluetooth-version information, with 5.1 stated in product details and A+ content but a comparison passage also saying 5.0. Battery life is stated as 8 hours, while customer feedback is mixed on battery life. The product is described as IP67 and waterproof, but the listing says it is not suitable for swimming. Check which package and specification apply to the selected listing before buying. The A+ content lists a charging cable, carrying bag, sport headband and guide, while the supplied box inventory is empty, so those accessories are unconfirmed.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Runners, cyclists and workout users who want open-ear listening and awareness of nearby sounds.
- Buyers who prefer a smaller band than the standard OpenRun.
- People seeking wireless headphones for music, calls or use with Bluetooth devices.
Less suited to
- Swimming or underwater use.
- Listeners who need sound isolation from surrounding noise.
- Buyers who require a confirmed Bluetooth version or verified accessory bundle without checking the selected listing.

Customer feedback highlights clear sound, comfort, fit, exercise use and reported usefulness as a PC headset. Some customers note that surrounding sounds remain audible, which fits the open-ear design and may suit awareness-focused workouts but not noise isolation. Battery-life feedback is mixed, so the listed 8-hour figure should not be treated as a universal experience. Aggregate ratings are mostly favourable, though they do not establish performance for every user.
Positive themes
- Customers praise sound clarity, comfort, fit and suitability for exercise.
Mixed feedback
- Customer views on battery life are mixed.
- Some customers note that surrounding sounds remain audible.
Frequently asked questions

No. Although the listing claims an IP67 rating, it explicitly says the headphones are not suitable for swimming.
How does the Mini size differ from the standard OpenRun?
The listing says the Mini band is 0.83 inches or 21 mm shorter than the standard model.
How long does the battery last?
The listed battery life is 8 hours. A 10-minute quick charge is claimed to provide up to 1.5 hours of battery life, but customer feedback is mixed on battery life.
