Get a Pair of Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Headphones for $50 Off in This Limited-Time Deal From Woot
There's something wrong about running without music. If not music, then a great podcast to keep your mind occupied while getting in some serious miles. That's why we're highlighting these unique bone-conduction Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 headphones that allow you to enjoy your favorite songs while still being aware of everything around you. Typically found for $180, Woot has dropped them to $130 in a limited-time offer.
Bone-conduction headphones have been on the market for a while now, but our reviewer hailed the OpenRun Pro 2s as one of the first pairs out there with truly good sound -- earning them a top spot on our list of the best running headphones of 2025. This is thanks to the new and improved hybrid-driver design, providing fuller bass tones, which these kinds of headphones typically lack.
They're also fairly rugged with an IP55 weather-resistance rating and boast a fairly impressive 12-hour battery life. Plus, solid voice-calling performance makes it easy to stay connected while you're on the road or trails.
Earning a CNET Editors' Choice award and a spot on our lists of the best headphones for running and working out, it's fair to say that these Shokz are some of the absolute best bone-conduction headphones on the market right now. In fact, CNET's audio expert David Carnoy found very little not to love about them other than their steep price, which is much less of an issue now that they're 28% off.
Looking for more options? We've rounded up the best headphones on the market now with Sony, Bose and more all featuring.

Apple's Finally Adding Call and Message Screening. Better Late Than Never, I Say
Apple's new call and text screening feature could do more than keep you from talking to strangers -- it could keep you safe from scammers looking to steal your information or your identity. Similar to features from Google and Samsung, Apple's Call Screening vets unknown callers by checking what they want before sending them your way. The company announced the capability at its WWDC 2025 keynote. This could help curb the threat of AI voice clone scams, which allow scammers to create AI voice clones with just three seconds of voice. These call and message screening features may come years after many of Apple's competitors have already implemented them, but it's an easy W for Apple nonetheless. There's also a new text message filtering capability that places messages from unknown senders into a separate folder for you to review or ignore. This could help limit the number of people who fall for job, toll, or other text phishing scams. I get two, maybe three of these text messages a week. Having them on their own little island may not stop the frequency at which they're sent, but it will certainly provide some peace of mind that I won't accidentally click a scam link or fall for some AI phishing scam. Plus, a less cluttered inbox is always nice. Apple's new features come at a good time, too. A recent CNET survey showed that 96% of Americans receive at least one scam message from email, phone calls or texts each week. While Apple may be late to the party, anything that helps fewer scams reach you is a welcomed addition.

Apple Unveils MacOS Tahoe 26 With Liquid Glass Design, New Continuity and Spotlight Features
Apple previewed the next version of its Mac operating system at WWDC 2025 on Monday. Set to arrive this fall, MacOS Tahoe 26 will feature Apple's Liquid Glass design, a couple new Continuity features, an update to Spotlight search and the new Games app. Here's what you need to know. MacOS 15 Sequoia to MacOS Tahoe 26 No, you didn't slip into a coma for a decade and miss 11 versions of MacOS between last year's MacOS 15 and MacOS 26. Apple is unifying version numbers across its various operating systems, so everything from iOS to MacOS this year will be version 26 to carry you into 2026. As for the Tahoe part, MacOS 26 is not named after a Chevy truck. It continues Apple's tradition starting in 2013 with Mavericks of naming its Mac operating system after a scenic area of California. CNET Liquid Glass design The Dock, sidebars, toolbars and other elements on your Mac will appear glassy and more reflective with Tahoe, but the biggest change to the look of the desktop is the disappearance of the menu bar. It's still there but just harder to see. Like the clear water of Lake Tahoe, the menu bar is completely transparent with MacOS Tahoe 26. MacOS Tahoe 26 also offers more ways to customize the look of your Mac, including the ability to choose a color other than light blue for folders. You can not only change the color of folders, but you can also add an icon to them. This is a developing story. See our live blog for full details on everything being announced at Apple's WWDC 2025.

Thank You, Apple, for Fixing Your iPhone Photos App Mistakes
Complaining works! Apple is bringing back some of its menu to the iPhone Photos app, the company announced on Monday at WWDC 2025. This is fantastic news for all of us who absolutely hated the previous design change that hid our Photos folders and albums from immediate view. This is the new look, in Apple's new design style called Liquid Glass. Apple/Screenshot by CNET The change was announced as part of iOS 26 later this year. (Yeah, it's called iOS 26 now, not iOS 19!) In iOS 18, Apple redesigned its Photos app to make it a more seamless scroll kind of situation, highlighting its automatically curated People & Pets collections at the expense of hiding all our folders down at the very bottom. Many people were upset about this, including several of CNET's mobile experts. As someone with thousands of photos, I hated having to dig through every outtake and random screenshot to find what I wanted. Scrolling to the bottom of the Photos app to find my folders isn't a long or arduous task, but it's irritating -- very much Apple trying to fix something I didn't really see as broken. And Apple knows we've been mad about this. Alan Dye, Apple's vice president of human interface, said "Many of you missed using tabs in the Photos app. Photos now features separate tabs for library and for collections, where you'll find your favorites, your albums and easy access to search." Sadly, we're not going to see the return of the full menu, which featured more options right when you launched the app. In the preview Apple teased, only two options pop up when you open the app: library and collections. But the changes feature Apple's new design style called Liquid Glass, and a big part of the design is expandable and collapsable menus from smaller, clear and rounded icons. So it's possible we can expand the menu from those collections tabs and see other folders and albums; we'll have to wait and see for sure with the release of iOS 26. The Photos app announcement is one of many the company is making today at WWDC. You can check out all the updates in our live coverage here.
