OpenFit 2 vs OpenFit, OpenFit Air: What’s the difference?

Pioneering Sound Shokz DualBoost™ Technology

The OpenFit 2 features Shokz's proprietary DualBoost™ Technology, representing a remarkable enhancement that elevates the experience of open-ear audio. This cutting-edge technology offers a richer, more immersive sound quality, allowing users to enjoy their favorite music and calls while remaining aware of their surroundings.

How Does DualBoost™ Work?

DualBoost™ utilizes two independent drivers, each engineered to handle specific frequency ranges, thereby enhancing the auditory experience. This advanced design enables the separation and precise processing of low and high-frequency sounds, resulting in a more nuanced and balanced sound profile. The low-frequency driver is crafted to deliver deep, resonant bass. In contrast, the high-frequency driver is designed to produce clear and bright mids and highs, ensuring that vocals and instruments come through with exceptional clarity and detail.

By dividing the sound responsibilities, this design creates a more balanced audio experience, allowing listeners to enjoy the details and richness of their music without interference between low and high frequencies. This approach enhances the overall listening experience, making it more enjoyable and accurate.

The Benefits of DualBoost™

By employing this advanced technology, the OpenFit 2 delivers a truly immersive listening experience. The precision-engineered perforations and rear tuning holes minimize sound leakage and optimize resonance frequency, ensuring that you can enjoy your favorite music and calls without disturbing others.

With DualBoost™, the OpenFit 2 offers the best sound quality among all Shokz products. Whether you're a music enthusiast or a fitness fanatic, the OpenFit 2's exceptional audio performance will elevate your listening experience.

Less Leakage, More Sound with DirectPitch™ 2.0

The OpenFit 2 features DirectPitch™ 2.0 Technology, a major advancement that reduces sound leakage and enhances the listening experience. Although the OpenFit 2 can reach a higher maximum volume than earlier models, the innovative design of DirectPitch™ 2.0 significantly minimizes sound leakage, ensuring a truly personalized listening experience.

How DirectPitch™ 2.0 Works

DirectPitch™ 2.0 leverages several innovative technologies to optimize sound delivery and reduce sound leakage. The bass driver utilizes a new chamber division technology to ensure a richer, more immersive bass performance while minimizing high-frequency sound leakage.

The high-frequency driver incorporates electronic crossover technology, which significantly reduces power consumption by up to 95%. This not only extends battery life but also contributes to a cleaner and more precise sound.

Additionally, the tilted tuning hole design minimizes sound leakage in all directions. This ensures a more private listening experience, allowing you to enjoy your music without disturbing others.

Soft, Secure, Superior Comfort

The OpenFit 2 takes comfort to the next level with Ultra-Soft Silicone™ 2.0. This innovative material, softer than its predecessor, provides a truly gentle and secure fit, even during extended wear sessions. Inspired by the softness of baby pacifiers and medical-grade silicone, Ultra-Soft Silicone™ 2.0 ensures a comfortable and pain-free experience, revolutionizing the way you perceive open-ear audio.

While the OpenFit introduced Ultra-Soft Silicone™ in 2023, the OpenFit 2 further refines this technology, offering an even more comfortable and secure fit. The enhanced material properties, combined with the ergonomic design, ensure that the OpenFit 2 seamlessly integrates with your lifestyle, whether you're working out, commuting, or simply relaxing.

The OpenFit Air, while utilizing a comfortable silicone material, primarily focuses on its innovative ear hook design. This design element offers a secure and personalized fit, ensuring that the earbuds stay in place during any activity.

Precise Control with Physical Buttons

In response to user feedback, the OpenFit 2 introduces upgraded physical multifunction buttons. Unlike its predecessors, the OpenFit and OpenFit Air, which relied solely on touch controls, the OpenFit 2 offers a more tactile and intuitive control experience.

With physical buttons, you can confidently adjust volume, play/pause music, and answer calls without worrying about accidental touches, especially during intense workouts or active lifestyles. This ensures precise control over your audio experience, allowing you to focus on what matters most.

All-Day Battery Power

The OpenFit 2 offers an impressive battery life of 11+ hours, ensuring that you can enjoy your music and calls throughout the day without interruption. When paired with the charging case, you can extend your listening time to a remarkable 48 hours.

While the OpenFit and OpenFit Air also offer impressive battery life, the OpenFit 2's extended performance provides even greater convenience and flexibility. With the OpenFit 2, you can stay connected, entertained, and powered up, no matter where your day takes you.

Built to Endure

With an IP55 rating, the OpenFit 2 offers exceptional defense against both dust and water. This enhances its durability significantly compared to the IP54 rating of the original OpenFit and OpenFit Air models. With this level of protection, users can engage in intense workouts or outdoor adventures with confidence, knowing that their device is equipped to withstand challenging environments while offering peace of mind.

Next-Gen Bluetooth 5.4 Connectivity

Utilizing the latest Bluetooth 5.4 technology, these true wireless earbuds offer faster connectivity, improved stability, and lower power consumption compared to the Bluetooth 5.2 technology of the OpenFit and OpenFit Air. This advancement results in a smoother and more reliable listening experience, especially when multitasking between multiple devices.

OpenFit 2 vs. OpenFit and OpenFit Air

Conclusion

Whether you're hitting the gym, commuting to work, or simply relaxing at home, the OpenFit 2, OpenFit, and OpenFit Air offer a comfortable and immersive listening experience. All three models deliver a secure fit and soft comfort, ensuring all-day wear without discomfort.
