SAVE $40: As of Sept. 26, the Shokz OpenSwim Pro are on sale for $139.95 at Amazon. That’s a 22% saving on the list price.
Headphones and earbuds have advanced hugely in the last few years, from open-ear designs to buds you can wear while sleeping. It seems that the sky is truly the limit when it comes to audio innovation. And that applies to swimming headphones, too. We all know that exercise is better with a good beat, but who knew this was possible when swimming? Thanks to the Shokz OpenSwim Pro, it truly is.
And as of Sept. 26, these headphones are now on sale for $139.95, a $40 saving on list price. And that’s not all, it’s also the lowest they have ever been priced at Amazon, so this really is a great deal.
So, how do they work? Well, most importantly, they have an IP68 waterproof rating. This means they can be submerged in water up to two meters deep for two hours. And the open-ear design uses bone conduction technology to transmit the sound to your ears. Instead of sending sounds through the eardrum, the headphones create vibrations that travel along the cheekbones and reach the inner ear directly. You still hear your music loud and clear, but you also hear things that are happening around you.
For use in and out of the water, you’ll get up to nine hours of battery life. If you’re running out of juice, plug it in for a 10-minute quick charge to get three hours of listening time.
