SHOKZ New OpenMeet UC - Open-Ear Bluetooth Computer Headset, Noise Cancelling Mic + Mute Button, USB-A Dongle Compatible with PC & Mac, Wireless Work Headphones, Customizable Fit, Smart App - C610 UC

I love SHOKZ headphones and this headset does not disappoint. You can have it plugged in and recharge while using it which is fantastic! Long battery life! Great sound quality and noise canceling and boom mic is easy to swing out of the way or an easy to use mute button. They do have a bit of a novel design that might not be for everyone but I have been very happy with this headset and SHOKZ in general. I have purchased multiple pairs of headphones and I put them through extreme use and will buy more when I wear them out or break them. Comfortable fit too!

I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the SHOKZ OpenMeet UC. The mic quality when connected via the Loop 120 USB-C dongle is outstanding—full-bodied, natural, and remarkably clear. If a broadcast mic is a 10 and AirPods Pro are a 4, I’d confidently rate this an 8. It’s more than good enough for video conferencing and sales calls. A nice bonus: the USB-C dongle works flawlessly with my iPad Pro and iPad Mini. It’s instantly recognized as both a mic and headphone device—no setup needed. That kind of plug-and-play compatibility is rare and really appreciated. I also tested Bluetooth with Apple TV for FaceTime and Zoom, and it worked without a hitch. Just keep in mind that mic audio over Bluetooth is a notch or two below the wired dongle experience. That’s a Bluetooth limitation, not the headset’s fault. One last note—some reviews mentioned the headset falling off easily, but that wasn’t my experience at all. It stayed secure during normal use with no issues. Overall, this is a well-designed, great-sounding, and highly functional headset. Highly recommend for remote work, meetings, and media use.

Do NOT buy these. I'm a huge SHOKZ fan. I've convinced several friends and coworkers to buy SHOKZ because of their quality and comfort. I've even gifted different pairs to loved ones for birthdays and holidays. So my base line is SHOKZ is just the best. I bought this pair for myself for my birthday. I was really excited about this developing technology. I wanted so badly to absolutely love this headset. Truth is they are the most uncomfortable headset I've ever put on. The technology isn't here yet. The entire headset needs a full redesign with actual ergonomics included. This headset won't stay on my head unless I wear a headband to hold the headset in place. Do not look down when you're wearing this. Most especially do not wear them to the bathroom because when you take aim, they will take flight. I've narrowly escaped a submerged headset twice. If I ever made that mistake again the toilet can have them. The audio is nice but not there yet. Still needs development with the lows but they have great mids. The inline mute on the mic is extremely appreciated. But the few narrow improvements do not make up for the absurdity in the discomfort. I literally despise wearing this headset and went back to my Open Com UC. In short this headset is a massive failure and a complete and total waste of money. Do not buy this headset unless you just want to be miserable wearing it.

Pros: Comfort & Fit: Lightweight and fits well. Different size options included for adjustments. Call Quality & Noise Cancellation: Excellent call quality with no complaints from callers. Effectively blocks out loud mechanical keyboard noise. Connectivity: Simultaneous connection to both Windows PC and phone. Easy transition from listening to music to answering calls. No connection issues experienced. Sound Quality: Decent sound, better than expected. Great for calls, though not bass-heavy for music. Cons: Comfort & Fit: Sideways pressure on temples causes some discomfort, even after adjustments. Mic Positioning & Mute Functionality: Mic cannot be switched to the other side, which is inconvenient for right-handed users. Mute button placement on the mic is not easily accessible. No quick mic flip-to-mute option; button must be pressed. Annoying "mute on" voice notification instead of a simple sound cue. Volume Control: Headset volume operates independently from the computer, causing inconsistency. Requires manual adjustment in the Windows volume mixer to fully mute. Software Limitations: Settings can only be accessed via the mobile app; no Windows app available. No keyboard shortcut support for muting; relies on the softphone switch instead. Environmental Noise Issues: Because this headset is designed to allow you to hear your environment, it does not work well if there are other noises that you are trying to avoid hearing. Since I live near an airport and have a washing machine right outside my door, I thought the benefit of hearing my family would be helpful, but it has turned out to be a distraction, and I can't focus at all now.

I wear glasses and am on the phone all day for work. I wanted a headset that wouldn't be on or in my ears and would put pressure on my ears, mashing my glasses into the side of my head. Pros: These are fairly light and the bone conduction is awesome. Sound is great and I can be heard already when I speak. ZERO pressure on or around my ears. The headset completely clears the temples on my glasses. Cons: The worst thing about this headset is it falls off super easy with even the slightest head tilt forward. This is frustrating when I have to look down etc. Secondly, I have to wear the headset at it's shortest settings this causes the stiff wire that goes around the headband to bunch out and put pressure on my scalp. This is very uncomfortable after several hours. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase and enjoy wearing this lightweight, bone conducting headset.

I was surprice at the audio quality on this device. The sound quality on music is not that bad. You can toggle to standard mode (which is good for listening to music) and vocal mode (good for calling listening to audio books or listening to podcast/news). I was not able to drain the batter the entire day, I have 40% left even after an entire day of use. Noise cancelling is aslo amazing on the mic. I have a toddler and an infant thats always on the background. I need to be able to hear them (plus my wife) but my caller doesnt need to hear them and this works perfect. Cons - The Fit - It falls. Altho the headphone is not putting stress on my head at all it falls all the time. I have to wear a hat to keep it on. Not meant for outside use, it will fall when you bow down. USB doesnt work on conversion to phone jacks, radio console, cat5/6/ethernet, the port shoud supply power to power up the dongle and use it as a transmitter. I work as a 9-1-1 dispatcher and it was my primary plan to use this at work to be able to have situational awareness at the same time while dispatching and talking 911 calls. I need to be able to hear other radios chatters in the background and people calling or hailing my attention. But we use radio console like Solacom and this device is not compatible eventhough this is plug and play. I just wish that they will update the firmware or dunno improve the USB dongle to be used on phone jacks/cat5 cable. (Note: I also thried the converter but did not work, donbgle is not lighting up which means no power is being supplied to it) But I will still use this in as my daily headphones. I just love the sound quality and the situational awareness.

shook as always innovating, is light, conversation clear, connectivity superb.

Lo que ya se conoce (no ajustan y se mueven/caen con el movimiento de la cabeza) + que con un volúmen algo alto el sonido se logra escuchar a tu alrededor (porque usa 2 formas de emitir el sonido de forma simultánea: por hueso y normal). En todo caso, me gusta y no lo devolveré.

J'écris ce commentaire pour signifier aux acheteurs potentiels de ce produit qu'il est impossible d'avoir la qualité sonore identique entre ces 2 activités (par exemple) pour le moins basique vu le prix du dispositif : - écouter de la musique seul ; - écouter de la musique et avoir une discussion avec quelqu'un sur un logiciel VoIP comme Discord en même temps. C'est dû au fait qu'au moment où le micro s'active la qualité du son dans le casque est désastreuse. C'était un problème déjà présent pour leur produit Opencomm que j'avais acheté et renvoyé dans la foulée il y a quelques années en leur signifiant que ne pas avoir de dongle était problématique. Au vu de l'arrivée de ce dongle, j'ai voulu retenter le coup mais malheureusement, leur dongle "Loop 120" vendu à un prix EXORBITANT sur Amazon au passage n'y change rien, celui-ci est simplement un récepteur Bluetooth avec quelques options. La concurrence ayant corrigé ce problème avec chacun un dongle propriétaire de leur fabrication, j'ai pensé qu'il en était de même pour Shokz... pas de bol et vu le peu d'options présentes pour celui-ci sur leur application Shokz Connect et une qualité sonore sur smartphone avec Bluetooth 5.2 similaire en écoutant uniquement de la musique, c'est à se demander ce qu'il fait réellement avec un prix pareil !

Great price point, good quality item, thank you!
