Black Shark has held a launch conference in China yesterday. At the event, the company unveiled a good number of products, which includes the Black Shark OWS 700. This isn’t the first pair of open ear headphones from the brand. However, with this release, the company now has a much more refined offering than before.
As for the price, the Black Shark OWS 700 launched at CNY 199, which is around $28. At that price, the headphones bring a lot to the table. And let’s not forget to mention that the pair is tuned for gaming. That’s something we haven’t seen in the past few open ear headphones releases.
Main Highlights of Black Shark OWS 700
The OWS 700 headphones are all about comfort. And that’s a given, considering the open ear design. But beyond that design, the company managed to keep the weight low to enhance the comfort even further. As for the build, it’s mainly made of medical-grade silicon.

With this material, Black Shark promises a comfortable fit even during prolonged wearing sessions. Also, the open ear nature of the headphones gives you a complete awareness of your surroundings. This makes the pair a great pick for outdoor activities and commuting.
To ensure a solid sound performance, Black Shark OWS 700 headphones come with large 16.2 mm drivers. These offer rich and detail-filled audio. The open ear headphones also promise to offer high-fidelity sound without any sound leakage. These should result in an immersive gaming experience.
Speaking of which, the Black Shark OWS 700 sport a dedicated low-latency mode. With this mode turned on, the gaming headphones can deliver 60 ms audio latency, which is reasonably low. Other highlighted features of the open ear headphones include Bluetooth 5.3, intuitive touch controls, and voice assistant support. Battery life-wise, you can get up to 24 hours of total runtime with the charging case, which is pretty respectable.
