Shokz OpenFit Pro CES 2026: Noise Reduction Meets Open-Ear Freedom
Shokz unveils the OpenFit Pro at CES 2026, featuring groundbreaking Open-Ear Noise Reduction tech. Priced at $249.95 with Dolby Atmos support and 50-hour battery life.
Open earbuds are having a massive moment at CES 2026. Following releases from JBL and Anker Soundcore, the industry leader Shokz just raised the stakes. The newly unveiled Shokz OpenFit Pro aims to solve the biggest trade-off in open-ear audio: environmental noise interference.
Shokz OpenFit Pro CES 2026: The Tech Behind the Quiet
The standout feature is the Open-Ear Noise Reduction technology. Unlike traditional cancellation that plugs the ear canal, this tech manually quiets external sounds so the music comes through with more clarity. At default settings, Shokz claims it reduces noise by 12 to 16dB—roughly equivalent to high-quality earplugs—while maintaining essential situational awareness for safety.
- Large 11 x 20 mm dual-diaphragm drivers for deeper audio.
- Optimized for Dolby Atmos spatial audio support.
- Up to 12 hours of playback per charge (total 50 hours with case).
- Triple microphone system with AI voice recognition.
Starting January 6, 2026, the earbuds are available for preorder at Shokz's website and Best Buy for $249.95. They come in black and white colorways, with wider availability on Amazon slated for March. The inclusion of Bluetooth 6.1 and an IP55 rating makes them a versatile choice for both office professionals and gym enthusiasts.
