Apple got rid of the headphone jack on the iPhone 7. Sure, we won’t have to spend time untangling earbud cords anymore, but that that little luxury isn’t worth the $159 Apple is charging for its AirPods, especially considering the design:
Do the designers at Apple perspire? How on Earth are these wireless headphones supposed to stay in your ears when you’re all sweaty in the middle of a workout? Luckily there are lots of great options for wireless headphones specifically designed for working out.
We rounded up six of the top-rated ones on Amazon and included the most helpful review from the site. They’re all less than $50, so you don’t have to break the bank to get a pair of headphones that actually stay put.
1. Bluephonic Wireless Sport Bluetooth Earbuds, $39.95
“I love these headphones! I am a runner and have tried so many Bluetooth headphones to satisfy me on my long runs. They’re either too bulky, to heavy in one side, or the sound just isn’t right.”
2. Mailiya Wireless Bluetooth Sport Headphones, $35.99
“I really like these headphones. I’m always struggling with earbuds slipping out of my ears, but because of the wraparound design, these stay put. The sound is really clear and rich.”
3. TamePanda Wireless Bluetooth Waterproof Headphones, $49.99
“These are waterproof, so no worries about them getting wet with sweat while working out. The sound can be quite loud and crystal clear. They do have noise cancelation to drown out other sounds in the area. I can use these for several days without having to charge them which is perfect!”
4. Brass Tacks RUNNERZ Bluetooth Earbuds, $49.99
“Most headphones meant for exercise tend to suck. Or at least tend to be pretty mediocre. But these have really made it enjoyable to work out and wear headphones.”
5. KSCAT Bluetooth V4.1 Headphones, $25.99
“I ended up really really liking the way they were bent because they are really solid in the ears which is huge for runners. The cord stays out of the way and the earbuds stay in.”
6. JFA Wireless Sports Stereo Earphones, $28.00
“These are comfortable, effective, and convenient. No wires getting in my way, no slippage even when I’m all sweaty. Definitely recommend!”
