AfterShokz Aeropex

Aeropex is a prominent model of bone conduction headphones originally released by the company AfterShokz. Unlike traditional headphones that use speakers to transmit sound through the air into the ear canal, Aeropex uses vibrations sent through the cheekbones directly to the inner ear, allowing the user to remain aware of their surroundings. This technology has made the product particularly popular among athletes, runners, and cyclists.

The brand underwent a significant rebranding in late 2021, shortening its name from AfterShokz to simply Shokz. The Aeropex model was subsequently updated and succeeded by the OpenRun series. Despite the name change, the core focus on open-ear bone conduction technology remains the hallmark of the product line, which is designed and engineered in-house before being manufactured in specialized facilities in China.

Today, Shokz maintains a dominant position in the sports headphone market. The brand is owned and operated by Shenzhen Voxtech Co., Ltd., which holds numerous patents related to bone conduction and acoustic engineering. The company continues to expand its global footprint, distributing its products through major electronics retailers and specialty sports shops worldwide.
