Wireless Headphone Recommendations

I don't know what kind of phone you have, but I have a Note 10 with the Samsung Pods. I've had to send them back twice in less than a year because the volume is faint in one of them. Their waterproofing isn't very good so I assume sweat is whats causing the issue. The compatibility with the phone is really nice, and they've accepted both pair back after like 5 minutes on the phone no questions asked. However, for $150 its ridiculous that I've had to send them back twice.

Tldr; I like the actual Samsung pods as far as sound quality and compatibility with my phone, but im not sure they can hold up as workout headphones.

I have some Skull Candy ear pods that work fine.

Bose Soundsport Free. Love em. I’ve learned to just never skimp on headphones because I’ve had so many issues with them crapping out in the past.

I’d recommend the Powerbeat pros...but the charging system pisses me off fairly often. Great headphones for the gym though

Jabra active from Costco refurb. $100 and are just as good as Apple stuff. Wife spent the money, I read reviews. She will buy the Jabras when hers break in a few months.

Powerbeats Pro, integration with Apple as they now own the company and much better than AirPods for exercise imo

Aftershokz. Bone conduction technology. If you are a runner they are great and leave your ears open to actually hear things around you.



This is critical. I run a lot and wouldn't run on public streets with anything else.

Jabra Elite have “hear through” sound which takes sounds picked up by the mic and sends them into the speakers. This basically amplifies the background noise so you can hear while listening to music.
