The newer headset has a magnetic charger rather than micro-USB, a lighter build, and greatly improved bass (Image credit: Future) Performance You don’t need to open the app to adjust the EQ as that can be done by holding both volume buttons until you hear a beep, and Audrey (the voice of the headphones) instructs which mode the headphones are in. With a choice of Vocal and Standard your choices are limited, but Voice is decent enough, amplifying voices without greatly distorting music too much, though its main intention is for audiobooks and podcasts.

Despite the improved bass, ambient noise is still clear thanks to the open-ear design. Many noise-cancelling headphones have a 'transparency' mode that uses a microphone to transmit external sound to your ear, but this doesn't give the same directional awareness you get from bone conduction headsets. Doté de la même technologie que l'OpenRun Pro (version standard), l'OpenRun Pro Mini ne diffère de la version standard que par sa taille. With a half-inch shorter headband the OpenRun Pro Mini feels more secure, stable and light for those who find the standard headband a little too roomy. Secondly, the charging connector has been repositioned. Like the OpenRun, the OpenRun Pro use a proprietary magnetic charging cable, which is much easier to connect than the fiddly micro-USB used by older models. However, for the newer model, Shokz has moved the charging port so it's no longer in line with the control buttons, making the cable easier to connect.

There were a few discrepancies at first, as using the OpenRun Pro Mini for 90 minutes at about 60% volume saw them drop from 60% to 57%. Using the headphones for two hours on another occasion saw them drop 20%, which seemed more indicative of their performance. Five minutes of charging provides another 90 minutes on the go. In summary, OpenRun Pro Mini will be more stable, more comfortable, and even lighter if you have a narrow or small head. L'OpenRun Pro Mini ou l'OpenRun Mini, lequel sera votre préféré ?
