Shokz has launched the OpenDots 2 earphones in the Philippine market, making it the 2nd generation of its flagship clip-on buds.

The Shokz OpenDots 2

Light clip, premium sound

As the name suggests, the device features a clip-on, open-ear design intended for use during outdoor workouts, commutes, or office work.

The earphones use a spherical acoustic system built around two custom 11.8mm drivers. Shokz says the design incorporates DirectPitch Technology to reduce sound leakage, along with four EQ presets and MirrorPitch Technology, which angles sound output directly toward the ear canal.

The earbuds and the case

Each earbud weighs 6.4g and is offered in three colorways: Pearl White, Grey, and Black.

For calls, each bud is equipped with two air-conduction microphones and one bone-conduction microphone. 

The box

Battery life is rated at up to 40 hours with the charging case, or up to 10 hours per charge on the buds alone. The case supports Qi wireless charging.

The OpenDots 2 also includes force sensors, allowing users to control music playback and volume through taps or pinch gestures.

Additional features include IP57 dust and splash resistance, Bluetooth 6.1 connectivity, and support for Google Fast Pair and Microsoft Swift Pair. 

The earphones can be customized through the Shokz app, available on the App Store and Google Play.
