Ditch your headphones! Shokz slash prices of popular clip-on Bluetooth earbuds below £150

If your Bluetooth earbuds are hanging on by a thread, you're in luck — Shokz has cut the price of its OpenDots One down to £149 — from £179. That's a £30 saving on the standard price tag, and means these 'buds are cheaper than the Apple AirPods 4 with ANC and Galaxy Buds 4. Unlike most Bluetooth 'buds designed with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) like the top-of-the-line AirPods Pro 3, Shokz uses an open-ear design so you can still hear what's happening around you while enjoying your music or podcasts – ideal for staying aware during your commute or morning jog. The sale was launched as Shokz released its successor, the OpenDots 2 for £179. If you're not fussed about owning the latest-and-greatest from Shokz, there's still a lot to love about the OpenDots One, thanks to the 40-hours of battery life, support for Dolby Audio, and water-resistant design. Save £30 on the OpenDots One from ShokzThe OpenDots One weighs just 6.5g per earbud. Designed to clip comfortably to the outside of your ear, they feature flexible JointArc technology, Dolby Audio, and Bassphere Technology for rich sound. With up to 10 hours of battery life (40 hours with the case), IP54 water resistance, wireless charging, and automatic ear detection, they're built for comfort, convenience, and everyday listening. They're available in black or grey. The OpenDots One tips the scales at just 6.5g per earbud – that's roughly the weight of a single sheet of paper. The secret to the secure clip-on fit is something called JointArc, made from flexible nickel-titanium. It's designed to work like a gentle spring that moulds to different ear shapes — so you don't need to worry about them falling out mid-gym session. There's also soft silicone on the speaker's exterior, which helps reduce pressure during long listening sessions.One feature people will absolutely love is Dynamic Ear Detection, meaning you can pop them in either ear, and they automatically work out which is left and right – no more squinting at tiny L and R markings.Its touch controls let you manage music and calls by tapping or pinching, while the Shokz App offers the ability to customise your settings.LATEST DEVELOPMENTSEE flips switch on speed boost for millions across UK at no extra costBest VPN dealsBuilding the next big iPhone or iPad app just got much easier for anyone in the UK or EuropeNew Windows 11 update brings major speed boost to your PCFreely releases new features in software update – reboot your Smart TV nowShokz has packed in something called Bassphere Technology – found on the recently released OpenDots Air — set up to deliver audio quality Shokz says you'd normally expect from a much larger 16mm audio speaker.
