I'm a runner, I love bone conduction headphones – so I'm getting a new pair of Shokz for Black Friday
Grab these Shokz and Youthwhisper Black Friday bone conduction headphones deals
The Black Friday deals have hit the best bone conduction headphones, and I'm going to get a pair of Shokz OpenRun Pros. While I was testing them for TechRadar, they definitely changed how I run, so I want a pair to own myself. With more spatial awareness of cars, bikes, and pedestrians, I definitely feel safer on the roads, which means I feel more comfortable, which means I run more often.
As someone who lives in a busy part of London, I don't always have the luxury of quiet parks and streets, especially on longer runs. This means I need to be aware of more than the stats on my best Garmin watch (incidentally, I'd recommend checking out the Black Friday Garmin deals if you're in the market for running kit): I need to be thinking about cars as I cross the road, cyclists or electric scooters that might zip up behind me, and all sorts of other stuff.
Right now in the US, the Shokz OpenRun Pro (our best running headphones overall) is down from $179.95 to $124.95 in the US, a saving of $50. For those on a tighter budget, our pick for the best budget pair, the Youthwhisper SQ3, are down 24% from $49.99 to $37.99.
In the UK, the OpenRun Pros are getting from £159.95 to £109.95, a £50 saving. Although the Youthwhisper SQ3s aren't available in the UK right now, the Shokz OpenMove headphones are down from £79.95 to £54.95.
