Shokz launches its new OpenFit Air 2 open-wireless earbuds, positioning them as a lighter update to the prior generation. Gizmodo reports the model is the “lightest earhook product” in Shokz history, while Engadget says the earbuds are nearly 20 percent lighter than the previous OpenFit Air.
Both outlets describe the same core design approach: an open-ear format intended to reduce pressure on the ear and help limit heat buildup compared with designs that more fully seal the ear canal. This emphasis on comfort and temperature is presented as a key part of the Air 2’s improvements, alongside the reduced weight.
Overall, the coverage aligns on the product’s main themes—open-ear wearing experience and a noticeable weight reduction—while differing primarily in how they characterize the lighter design (absolute “lightest” claim versus percentage change versus the previous model).
