Shokz announces two new open-ear, clip-on wireless earbuds: the flagship OpenDots 2 and a mid-range model called OpenDots Air. Like the earlier OpenDots One, both new earbuds are designed to be worn clipped to the back of the ear, with their drivers positioned to project sound toward the ear canals without blocking them. Multiple outlets describe the OpenDots 2 as focusing on improved audio performance, including stronger volume and bass, alongside everyday usability upgrades such as lighter comfort and practical controls. Reviews and previews also highlight battery life improvements and an emphasis on making open-ear earbuds more suitable for general daily listening, not only fitness use. TechRadar characterizes the OpenDots 2 as comfortable and stable, with excellent sound, while noting fit security can vary by wearer. Across coverage, the main addition is the updated lineup and its aim to refine sound quality and wearing comfort, with the OpenDots Air positioned as the cheaper companion model to the OpenDots 2.
