At just 7.2 g per earbud, they are 17.2% lighter than their predecessor, with a 0.75 mm-thin nickel-titanium alloy core that holds its shape through long wears without pressing on the ear. The result is an earbud that lets you wear it for a full workday or workout without the pressure or that in-ear models can cause over time. Bassphere audio with DirectPitch technology: Each earbud houses Shokz's Bassphere dual-driver system - two 11.8 mm high-sensitivity round speakers working together to produce output comparable to a 16 mm driver. The OpenBass 2.0 algorithm adds depth and texture to low frequencies, while DirectPitch technology angles the speaker at 30 degrees to direct sound toward your ear and minimise leakage to those around you. Audio codecs supported are SBC and AAC, covering the full 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range. Battery life and fast charging: The earbuds deliver up to 8 hours of music playback or 6 hours of calls on a single charge, extending to 36 hours music or 25 hours calls with the charging case. A 10-minute quick charge via USB-C adds 3 hours of playback, so a brief top-up during a coffee break covers most of a working day. The charging case itself charges from flat in around 100 minutes when charged alongside the earbuds. Controls, connectivity, and call quality: The OpenFit Air 2 uses pressure-sensitive buttons rather than touch controls, reducing accidental presses caused by sweat, rain, or hair brushing against the earbud. Bluetooth 6.1 supports multipoint pairing across two devices simultaneously, with Google Fast Pair for Android 11+ and Microsoft Swift Pair for Windows 10+. A dual-microphone system with AI noise reduction handles call clarity, and the Shokz App (iOS and Android) provides four preset EQ modes plus two custom settings, Find My Earbuds, and firmware updates. Water resistance and everyday durability: The earbuds carry an IP55 rating, meaning they are protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction - well suited to rain, gym sessions, or sweaty runs. The charging case holds an IP54 rating, providing the same dust protection and splash resistance for everyday carry. The earbuds' exterior uses a combination of plastic, silicone, and stainless steel, while the case is plastic and stainless steel.
