Shokz OpenDots ONE Review

Shokz, the pioneer of open-ear audio innovation latest offering is the OpenDots ONE and we have been testing these out the last while and while this is a earbud style that is catching on now with many manufacturers these are one of the best in class yet for bone conduction.
The most notable feature of the OpenDots ONE is their unique design. Instead of a traditional ear-hook or in-ear fit, they use a “JointArc” clip-on mechanism made of a flexible nickel-titanium alloy with soft silicone padding. At just 6.5 grams per earbud, they are exceptionally lightweight and designed to provide a secure fit when running or training in the gym.

Open-ear earbuds can compromise on sound quality due to the design and shape and not fitting quite like tradional earbuds. However, the OpenDots ONE aim to defy this expectation with their Bassphere technology which uses dual 11.8mm drivers to deliver an almost in-ear earbud experience.  This, combined with Dolby Audio support, results in a surprisingly full and bass-rich sound for their class. These also have Dynamic Ear Detection on deck which means like many of these they can differentiate between left and right automatically. 

In a quiet environment, the audio is clear and balanced. Voices and music are well-defined, and the Bassphere technology provides a much-needed low-end presence that is often lacking in open-ear designs. You will not get the full in-ear or headphone experience but these are close and with the app you have control over the sound stage you want they are loud and there is notable differences between the EQs here unlike other offerings out there with a similar design you will be impressed there is some leakeage when they are maxed out on volume 

The OpenDots ONE boast impressive battery life. You can expect up to 10 hours of continuous music playback on a single charge, with the compact wireless charging case providing an additional 30 hours for a total of 40 hours. A quick 10-minute charge gives you two hours of listening time. The case supports both USB-C and Qi wireless charging, adding a layer of convenience this will be different for every user with how they have theirs set up but the battery life claimed as most do is claim is almost accurate.

The Shokz OpenDots ONE are a great addition into the clip-on open-ear market. They offer excellent comfort and a secure fit, making them a fantastic choice for those who dislike traditional earbuds or prioritize situational awareness which with the dark nights now closing in is a not a bad idea for people that walk or jog etc and those who want to try the new design who have not done so yet this is around the 20th pair of this type of clip-on for me to review now and they come with Find My Earbuds on board which is great if lost or isplaced at home of the office and whilst not a fan when they came out I am now.

While no open-ear headphone can completely match the sound isolation of an in-ear model or headphones the OpenDots ONE deliver a  good audio experience with impressive bass for their design and give you a near tpyical in- ear experience. 

The touch controls can be a bit tricky as there is two areas but you will over time get the thumb memory in action, and with their app you have more control, these are more expensive that others we have tried but as mentioned one of the best so far this year, check out the video below for more..

Key Highlights:
  • Effortless Clip-On Style

  • Interchangeable and Intuitive
    No more fumbling with left and right earbuds. OpenDots ONE features Dynamic Ear Detection that automatically senses which ear it’s in, so you can wear and store them interchangeably—no worrying about sides.

TCL Unveils the Z100: The World’s First Wireless Dolby Atmos FlexConnect Speaker for Home Cinema

TCL, a global leader in consumer electronics and the world’s No. 2 TV brand, is revolutionising home entertainment with the launch of the TCL Z100, the first wireless Dolby Atmos® FlexConnectTM speaker. This innovation creates a completely new home cinema category, designed to combine acoustic performance, adaptability, ease of installation, and elegant design.

A Groundbreaking Innovation: Wireless Dolby Atmos FlexConnect Speakers for ultimate consumer ease of use

The result of years of collaboration with Dolby, the Z100 offers a multitude of Dolby Atmos home cinema system options with no cables or HDMI box. Exclusively compatible with the latest generation of TCL Mini LED TVs (C6K, C7K, C8K, C9K, and X11K), it introduces an innovative way of experiencing sound at home. Dolby Atmos FlexConnect is a new feature that unlocks the ability to place speakers anywhere you choose, while optimising the sound experience to fit any room layout or speaker configuration. It provides a customised Dolby Atmos experience where your seat will feel like the best seat in the house. The Z100 speakers communicate with TCL televisions to intelligently adjust sound output. FlexConnect speakers can be used in multiple configurations depending on the consumer’s space and wishes – with 2 speakers, 3 speakers or 4 speakers. All options offer an immersive Dolby Atmos experience.

The Z100 speakers are wireless, meaning they can be placed anywhere in the room. With FlexConnect, speakers can be placed in asymmetrical positions and at different heights. This significant benefit provides unprecedented freedom of placement without compromising audio quality.  

“With this groundbreaking product, we’re ushering in a new era for home audio experiences, made possible through our close collaboration with Dolby,” said James Parker, Head of TV & AV at TCL UK. “Our TVs already integrate Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, our soundbars feature Dolby Atmos, and now, we’re taking another major step forward with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect. This technology enables everyone to create a truly immersive home cinema experience, perfectly tailored to their personal space and lifestyle.”

“The launch of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect across TCL’s Precise Dimming Series marks a new chapter in personalised home audio experiences,” said John Couling, Senior Vice President of Entertainment at Dolby Laboratories. “With Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, consumers can unlock even more flexibility and adaptability in how they design their home entertainment systems, whilst removing the stress of whether their speakers are in the right location to get an incredible Dolby Atmos experience.”

Unprecedented Sound Immersion, Regardless of Configuration

Consumers seek the best audio from their sound systems, but room constraints often make optimal speaker placement a challenge. Whether due to room size, outlet locations, or balancing sound performance with aesthetics, positioning speakers can be frustrating. Dolby Atmos FlexConnect unlocks the freedom to place one or more wireless speakers anywhere in a room without having to worry whether they are placed perfectly. The solution is easily adaptable as more devices are added no matter where they are placed, intelligently optimising the Dolby Atmos rendering of each speaker and the TV to create the best possible experience available that’s tailored to the room.

Each Z100 speaker delivers a maximum power of 170W (1.1.1) and includes four high-fidelity speakers, including a vertically angled channel at 15° for optimal height sound reproduction. Thanks to the intelligent auto-calibration of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, the Z100 automatically identifies its position in the room relative to the user’s location, optimally adjusting the sound field.

Multiple* Z100 speakers can be paired with TCL’s C6K or C8K models to create a sound environment equivalent to a Dolby 5.1.2 or 7.1.4 system, respectively. This audio power is delivered with unmatched ease of use. Additionally, when connected to a smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, a single Z100 can also serve as a versatile music playback system (without Dolby Atmos).

*Up to four units simultaneously

A Mobile and Elegant Design that Enhances Acoustic Performance

Sleek and sophisticated, the Z100 features an understated metallic black design that seamlessly complements any interior décor. Its compact, wireless form eliminates visual clutter, while delivering professional-grade acoustics, a testament to the combined expertise of TCL laboratories and Dolby audio engineers.

The Z100’s vertical structure integrates a powerful audio setup with two front-facing speakers, an angled vertical speaker, and a subwoofer, providing immersive three-dimensional surround sound and high-fidelity audio with richly detailed soundscapes. This exceptional audio quality rivals that of home cinema sound systems, elevating the home entertainment experience to unprecedented levels.

Neither a conventional soundbar nor a traditional speaker, the Z100 sets a new standard for home cinema: wireless Dolby Atmos, portability, and elegant design.

The TCL Z100 will be available in France starting early July 2025 with more European launches to come.

Canyon True Wireless Stereo Headset OnRun 11 Sport – Review

The Canyon OnRun 11 Sport features a carefully designed ergonomic shape and secure ear hooks that conform comfortably to your ears, so you get a snug and stable fit. No matter how intense your workout gets, these earbuds will stay in place, preventing slippage or discomfort and after wearing these for some time on holidays and going to the gym and some cycling these have remained secure in my ears and will not budge for anyone else due to their ergonomic design.
Built to withstand the rigors of your active lifestyle, the Canyon OnRun 11 Sport is sweat and water resistant. You can confidently wear them during your most challenging workouts without worrying about damage from perspiration. The OnRun 11 Sport utilizes a high-capacity battery that delivers impressive playtime. Enjoy up to 7.5 hours of continuous music playback on a single charge, and the charging case provides an additional 28 hours of power.
The OnRun 11 Sport is engineered specifically for sports enthusiasts. The lightweight design, secure fit, and sweat resistance make these earbuds the ideal choice for athletes who demand the best in performance and comfort.
These are designed for athletes and fitness enthusiasts, these earbuds deliver powerful sound, a secure fit, and long-lasting battery life. Equipped with the latest Bluetooth 5.4 technology, however there is no app for these which is disappointing but not a huge deal, the OnRun 11 Sport offers faster data transfer, improved phone call quality, and a wider frequency range for richer audio.
With up to 7.5 hours of continuous playback and a charging case that provides an additional 28 hours of power, you can enjoy your favourite music without interruption. Plus, the convenient wireless charging feature makes it easy to keep your earbuds powered up.
When it comes to controls and audio we have a touch base system here which works well and preferential for many in the sports scene, with the audio and no app these sounded better than one would expect to be fair and are quite fine as are out of the box with decent highs lows and mids no lag latency and no tinny sound when maxed out on the volume which for me is always the highest it can go and all genres played well here form my usual test run with earbuds and headphones. Some bass drops where quite remarkable in fact.
