I’m a sweaty boy looking at getting back into running. I’ve been using Jaybird Tarah Pros for the last 5ish years but they’re not charging reliably and I’ve been having other issues with them, so I think it’s time to look for replacements.

I’m interested in the Beats Fit Pros because of the Apple integration, but the IPX4 rating has me a little worries that they won’t last long. I’ve never run with fully wireless earbuds before, but I’d love recommendations of what y’all are using, models/brands you like, and which ones you hate.

I sometimes run with sunglasses, so I’d rather not have anything with ear loops (I also have weird ear and so loops often hurt me more than they help).

EDIT: Thanks for the recommendations. I got really sick after posting this so my replies stopped dead, but I read all your replies and have a list of models and brands to check out once I can get out of bed again. Much appreciated! 🤙

    I am going to recommend the same. I have the Jabra Elite 7 Pros and have had no issues running outdoors or inside on a treadmill. The sound quality of music is good, and I think the ANC is pretty decent. Better ANC than the Airpod Pro 1’s, at least. I know they get a lot of flak for call quality, but I’ve actually never used them for a call, so I can’t weigh in on that complaint.

      Awesome, thank you both. I’ll look into those. I don’t think I’d ever use them for calls anyway so that part wouldn’t bother me at all, and I don’t mind paying a little more for something that will last me a few years.
