For fitness enthusiasts who prioritize situational awareness, open-ear earbuds provide a safer listening experience, though often with compromised audio quality. The Shokz OpenFit Air Earbuds aim to solve that common bass deficiency, and they’ve just reached their lowest price ever at $79.95, a significant $40 discount available at Amazon, Target, and Shokz’s own website.
This model diverges from Shokz’s typical bone conduction approach by utilizing traditional air conduction technology. This shift delivers a more robust and satisfying bass response compared to many open-ear alternatives. While they still don’t match the full, immersive sound of sealed in-ear buds, the audio is far clearer and less muddy than most bone conduction headphones. A secure ear-hook design ensures they stay put during activity, offering a generally comfortable fit. It’s worth noting that stability can slightly diminish for users who wear glasses, as noted in hands-on testing.
Battery life is respectable for the category, offering up to six hours of playback on a single charge, sufficient for most training sessions. The IP55 rating for sweat and water resistance means these buds can confidently handle intense workouts and exposure to light rain.
Beyond this standout audio deal, several other products are seeing notable discounts. The Kobo Clara Colour e-reader is available for $139.99, matching its best price. This device presents a compelling budget-friendly option with a vibrant color screen and a waterproof build, though it forgoes some premium features like physical page-turn buttons found on higher-end models.
For those needing to keep tabs on belongings, Samsung’s SmartTag 2 trackers are a strong Android-compatible choice. A four-pack is currently priced at just $44.99 on Woot, a new record low that breaks down to roughly $11.25 per tracker. They offer ultra-wideband precision finding and tap into Samsung’s extensive Galaxy Find network.
Finally, a unique gift idea: preserved roses. These long-lasting floral arrangements maintain their beauty for years, not just days. A box of 16 pink preserved roses starts at $35.95 at Amazon, providing an elegant and enduring alternative to traditional bouquets, available in various colors and sizes.
