Attending the CES is a great opportunity to learn the upcoming year's tech trends and be introduced to cool gadgets and consumer electronics. Even if you aren't a tech person, you will discover so many cool products. 



Shokz Open Ear headphones was definitely one of those products, and I can't wait to tell you all about it. 



The Shokz booth had the "Be Open" display board. "A lofty claim", or so I thought. 



Can you spot what's revolutionary and unique about these headphones and earbuds? 



Shokz is known for its headphones with its patented open-ear technology. 



If your ears get tired or infected from prolonged use of AirPods or similar, Shokz offers a great alternative and allows you to use earphones without blocking your ears. 



I was thrilled to see Shokz' OpenFit, the brand's first truly open-ear wireless earbuds. There are other products from Shokz, but OpenFit is the one that is truly wireless and the most advanced.

The newly released OpenFit is made with Shokz's patented DirectPitch technology and wraps around the ear, leaving the inner ear completely open. OpenFit Open-Ear True Wireless Earbuds offer users all-day comfort, a secure fit, and situational awareness. 







These earbuds have the Dolphin Arc Ear Hook design that accommodates different ear shapes. These headphones come with 0.7mm built-in, ultra-fine flexible memory wire for an ergonomic and tailored fit. A gentle adjustment of the arc is all you need to fine-tune the fit. 



Also, the ear cushion core is built with dual-layered liquid silicone, so it will adjust to your natural ear shape. 



This also keeps the earpiece in place, so you won't have to worry about it falling off during intense workouts or physically demanding chores like mowing. 



Not only are these open earbuds great for keeping ear infections at bay, but they also allow you to stay connected to conversations around you. Sure, you need a noise-canceling mode when you need to focus, but when you're casually listening to a podcast or an audiobook, you still want to know what's happening around you. 



Or when you're working out with a friend. I love the fact that I can still keep tabs on the surroundings. 



At the booth, Shokz was showcasing its another revolutionary product, OpenSwim headphones. 



These bone-conduction open-ear swimming headphones are waterproof, so you can do intense workouts or swim! 



Shokz is a clear forerunner in the open-ear design headphone industry, and there is clearly a growing demand for earphones that leave the inner ears open. I was excited to discover Shokz, and I hope to see more interesting products from it.
