Tommy Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Amazon is getting cluttered with bogus reviews. Any of you guys have any decent sounding wireless earbuds for working out you can recommend? Trying to keep it under $50 or close to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapeebs Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I've been using these since Christmas: https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Signature-Bluetooth-Earbuds-Charging/dp/B07HGL3J31/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=28ZCULPSU5QSW&keywords=jbuds+air+true+wireless+earbuds&qid=1554391112&s=gateway&sprefix=jbuds+%2Caps%2C131&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1 Pretty decent sound for the price point, good battery life. My only gripe is that they can start to be painful in the ears after having them in for a prolonged amount of time, because they have to fit pretty snug to stay in while active. They do come with different sized earcups that I have yet to try out, so that could definitely be a solution for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I was actually wondering this too and also noticed the Amazon reviews. Crazy. Will have to look into dapeepb suggestions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to follow Amazon reviews like gospel, but searching around today I found some weird Chinese manufacturers with 3,000+ 5 star reviews and not a single 4 or below. Read down in the comments to see they just have bots and paid reviews. Now I don't know what I can trust anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I don't know what I can trust anymore Yeah, I noticed that they were all 5 star reviews and they all basically had the same 2 or 3 talking points over and over again. I think the reviewer names were wither similar or the same on most of them too. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angryalan Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Headphones-TaoTronics-TT-BH07-Waterproof/dp/B07C77M3HL/ These aren't wireless per-se, but they are solid for the gym. Decent sound. Earbuds fit very well and don't budge at all when moving a lot, i.e. treadmill. Love that they are magnetic, so if you need to pop them off they won't fall or get lost. And for $24 ($2 coupon right now) they aren't going to break the bank. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouTwo Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 I currently have these https://www.amazon.com/Phaiser-BHS-790-Bluetooth-Headphones-Sweatproof/dp/B07CMBS4MY/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=2VXXNFGAXXHFB&keywords=phaiser+bhs-790+bluetooth+headphones&qid=1554745775&s=gateway&sprefix=phaiser+%2Caps%2C154&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1 They sound awesome but I hate the way the wire in the back gets all bunched up which is why I started a hunt for wireless earbuds as well.

My only gripe so far is when running, the volume control bounces pretty hard, tugging on the right headphone pretty bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cside Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I tried a couple of cheapo amazon options and threw them in the trash. I tried a few $60-80 options from decent brands JBL/monster and they had numerous issues (COSTCO was awesome at taking them back so no risk here). My wife got me a set of Apple AirPods for my birthday. I don't know how they compare to Bose or Samsung but if you are running with an iPhone the integration/connectivity/comfort is absolutely incredible. Most impressed I've been with an apple product since my first iPod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
