The Shokz OpenFit Beige is the first-generation OpenFit, the model that took the Shokz open-ear idea into true wireless earbuds, here in a soft sand tone. A slim silicone hook holds each earbud on the outer ear while a small speaker sits just outside the ear canal, so nothing is pushed into your ear and you still hear the world around you. At 8.3 g per earbud it is lighter than the newer OpenFit 2, and Shokz rates the battery at up to 7 hours per charge and up to 28 hours in total with the charging case.

Why choose beige
Beige is the colour that blends in rather than stands out. On most skin tones the Shokz OpenFit Beige hook almost disappears against the ear, which makes it a quiet choice for the office, video calls and anyone who would rather not have black plastic visible on the side of the head. It also pairs well with light clothing, gold or silver glasses frames and headscarves in neutral shades. The trade-off is that a light colour shows sunscreen, make-up and dust sooner than black, so a quick wipe with a slightly damp cloth after use, followed by drying before charging, keeps it looking clean. If the earbuds will live in a gym bag, the black version hides marks better.
OpenFit or OpenFit 2?
OpenFit and OpenFit 2 are different generations, not colours of one product. The newer model adds a second driver in each earbud, physical buttons, IP55 and longer battery life of up to 11 hours per charge and 48 hours with its case. The Shokz OpenFit Beige keeps one driver and touch controls, but it is lighter at 8.3 g against 9.4 g and costs less. If you mostly listen to podcasts, audiobooks and calls, or want the lightest Shokz ear-hook model with a full charging case, the first generation is still a sensible pick; if bass and battery come first, choose OpenFit 2.
DirectPitch: open ears without bothering others
Shokz describes DirectPitch as air conduction based on phase cancellation. The speaker aims sound at your ear while reverse waves reduce what leaks outwards, so at a moderate level the person next to you on a bus usually does not hear your audio. It is not bone conduction. Because the ear canal stays open you hear cars, a colleague calling your name or a gate announcement at the airport without taking the earbuds out, which is the main reason people choose the Shokz OpenFit Beige over sealed earbuds.
Comfort, calls and connection
Each earbud weighs 8.3 g (± 0.2 g) and the hook is covered in silicone; Shokz designed the thin curved hook to sit comfortably with prescription glasses, sunglasses and caps. Two microphones in each earbud handle calls. Bluetooth 5.2 with MultiPoint keeps two devices connected, so a laptop meeting and a phone call can share the same earbuds. Controls are touch-based and can be customised in the optional Shokz app, which also offers EQ modes, battery levels and firmware updates. Either earbud works on its own for music or calls.
Battery, charging and water resistance
Shokz rates the Shokz OpenFit Beige at up to 7 hours of listening per charge and up to 28 hours in total with the case; higher volume shortens both. Five minutes of charging gives about 1 hour of use, the earbuds charge in about 1 hour in the case, and an empty case takes about 2 hours over USB-C. The earbuds are rated IP54 against sweat, dust and splashes, but Shokz states the case is not water resistant and advises against heavy rain or running water on the earbuds.
Who This Is Not For
The Shokz OpenFit Beige is not for flights or loud commutes where you want noise cancellation, since outside sound comes straight in. Bass lovers will find a single open driver lighter than sealed earbuds or OpenFit 2. Touch controls can register accidental taps when you adjust a cap, swimmers need a different model because IP54 covers only sweat and splashes, and the light colour shows dirt faster than black.
