Mascom International stocks the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini at KSh 23,000, brand new and sealed, combining bone and air conduction, 12 hours of playback, IP55 protection and Bluetooth 5.3 with multipoint. The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini is the shorter-band size of the OpenRun Pro 2, with a frame about 21 millimetres smaller, roughly 0.83 inches, for smaller heads. Sound, battery and microphones match the standard model exactly; only the fit changes. A five-minute USB-C top-up gives about 2.5 hours of play. Come and fit it at our store in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for runners with smaller heads, the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini handles a frustration many buyers know well: a standard band that bounces or slides down the neck with every stride. A loose band pulls the drivers away from the cheekbones, and sound drops away just when the pace picks up. The shorter frame holds the drivers in place, so the music stays steady through hill repeats on Ngong Road or intervals on a Kasarani track. Women runners, younger athletes and slim cyclists get the same open-ear awareness of traffic as everyone else, without a strap or hair tie holding things together.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops carry one size and leave you guessing, Mascom International keeps both the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini and the standard Shokz OpenRun Pro 2, so you can compare them side by side before paying. At Mascom International, we're seeing more couples and running clubs buy one of each size. The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini costs KSh 1,000 less than the standard model and carries the same 12-month warranty. Walk in to test the fit, or order on WhatsApp and pay when the rider hands it over anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini
What is the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini price in Kenya?
The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini sells for KSh 23,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International, Kimathi Street, Nairobi. You also get a 12-month warranty, a USB-C cable and a carrying bag in the box, and pay-on-arrival delivery countrywide. The standard Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 costs KSh 24,000, a gap of KSh 1,000. Since both sizes share identical drivers, battery and microphones, that small difference reflects the band length alone, so let head size decide your choice.
Should I choose the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini or the standard Shokz OpenRun Pro 2?
Choose the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini if the standard band feels loose or gaps at the back of your neck. Its frame is about 21 millimetres shorter, while sound quality, 12-hour battery, IP55 rating and microphones are identical. Most adult men and anyone with a larger head should take the standard Shokz OpenRun Pro 2. If you are unsure, try both at our Nairobi CBD store; the right size sits snug without pressing hard on your temples.
Does the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini work with glasses or a cycling helmet?
Most wearers use the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini comfortably with glasses, sunglasses and cycling helmets. The hooks rest over the ears, and the band runs low behind the head, below most helmet straps. Glasses arms sit alongside the hooks, though thick acetate frames may crowd the space, so test yours in the store. Because the Mini band sits closer to the neck, it clears the back of a helmet better than a loose standard band on a small head.
Is the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini safe for road running and cycling around Nairobi?
The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini keeps your ears open, so you still hear horns, engines and voices around you while music plays. That matters on busy stretches like Waiyaki Way or Mombasa Road, where matatus stop suddenly and boda bodas weave through gaps. Keep the volume moderate in heavy traffic so street sounds stay clear. The snug Mini fit also means you never take a hand off the handlebars to push a slipping band back into place.
Who should buy the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini, and who should skip it?
The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini suits people with smaller heads who run, cycle or train outdoors and want to hear their surroundings. Teenagers, many women and slim adults usually find it the better size. Skip it if you have a larger head, since the shorter band will press uncomfortably; take the standard Shokz OpenRun Pro 2. Skip it too if you want quiet on a long bus ride, where the Bose QuietComfort Headphones, also stocked at Mascom International, block noise instead.
How fast does the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini charge?
The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini reaches a full charge in about one hour over USB-C. A five-minute top-up gives roughly 2.5 hours of listening, which rescues a run you forgot to prepare for. A full charge then lasts up to 12 hours of playback. When KPLC switches the power off in your estate, a power bank, car USB port or laptop charges it just as well, so you rarely need a wall socket.
Is the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini good for university students?
The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini works well for students who move between online classes, calls and exercise in one day. Multipoint keeps it linked to a laptop and phone together, so a Google Meet lecture and a WhatsApp call share one headset. Students at Strathmore, Kenyatta or USIU can keep it on for a walk across campus and still hear classmates. The open fit avoids the sore ears that come from wearing earbuds through hours of study.
Can people near me hear the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini?
At moderate volume, people beside you hear little from the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Mini. At high volume in a quiet room, some sound escapes, as it does with any open-ear headset. In a shared office or library, keep the level low or switch to the Vocal EQ mode for spoken content. Outdoors, wind and traffic cover any leakage completely, so the only person hearing your playlist on a morning jog is you.
Technical Specifications
Audio Hardware
- Bone conduction transducers working alongside air conduction speakers — vocals arrive through the cheekbones while the speakers fill in the bass.
- 101.3 dB bone conduction sensitivity — podcasts and voice notes stay clear without turning the volume to its limit.
- 96 dB air conduction sensitivity — the second set of drivers restores the low notes that bone-only headsets often miss.
- 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response — the full span of human hearing, from kick drums to high hats.
- Drivers rest on the cheekbones just ahead of the ears — nothing enters the ear canal, which avoids irritation on long runs.
- Five EQ presets plus two custom slots in the Shokz app — Bass Boost for workouts, Vocal for audiobooks and lectures.
Wireless Connectivity
- Bluetooth 5.3 — the current standard for a steady link that also sips battery power.
- Multipoint pairing with two devices — hop from a laptop meeting to a phone call without opening Bluetooth settings.
- Roughly 10 metres of wireless range — the phone can stay in a locker or on a treadmill console.
- A2DP, AVRCP and HFP profiles — stream music, skip tracks and take calls on Android phones and iPhones alike.
- SBC codec support — the standard Bluetooth format, so every phone and laptop connects without extra setup.
- Pairs with Windows laptops, Macs, Android tablets and iPads — one headset covers work calls, lectures and streaming.
Battery and Charging
- 150mAh cell — up to 12 hours of playback, around six 2-hour long runs before you charge again.
- Five-minute quick charge — about 2.5 hours of music, more than most weekday training sessions need.
- About one hour for a full charge — plug in while you shower and change after a workout.
- USB-C port — matches the charging cable that most current phones and tablets already use.
- Up to 10 days on standby — it holds charge between sessions without needing a top-up.
- Runs from a power bank, laptop or car USB port — useful when load shedding cuts mains power at home.
Build and Durability
- Compact band about 21 millimetres, or 0.83 inches, shorter than the standard size — a closer fit for smaller heads.
- Weight of roughly 30 grams — light enough that the band stays unnoticed through a full workout.
- Nickel-titanium alloy frame — springy metal that flexes into a bag and returns to its shape.
- Silicone outer coating — soft on skin, grips without chafing and wipes clean after a sweaty session.
- IP55 sweat, dust and water protection — handles rain and dusty trails, but keep it out of pools.
- Ear hooks curve over the top of each ear — the headset hangs steadily instead of squeezing the sides of your head.
Controls and Inputs
- Multifunction button — one control for play, pause, track skips, voice assistant and call handling.
- Separate volume up and down buttons — change loudness quickly while running without looking at the screen.
- Dual AI noise-cancelling microphones — wind and traffic are filtered so callers hear you clearly.
- -38 dB microphone sensitivity — captures normal speech without needing to raise your voice on calls.
- Shokz app control — set EQ, switch multipoint devices and keep firmware current.
- Raised physical buttons instead of touch surfaces — they work reliably with sweaty fingers or cycling gloves on.
