"I put them in my ear, put the helmet on, then do one final “push” with my finger to seat them in my ear for the ride. ... The batteries die before they work out of my ear."
"they are so comfortable that both I and my husband have had to feel our ears to check whether we were still wearing them."
"Also super bonus I've never head banged with earphones this hard besides with these soundcores, they stick to me like glue even when I'm in a metal mood and I'm headbanging for a good hour."

"I even washed them accidentally and still worked perfectly fine afterwards."
"are water resistant (I've run mine through the wash and they still work no problems)"

"I use it for the same reasons and love it. ... I would not consider the regular Apple Watch because of battery life."
"the battery life easily lasts 10+ hours."

"The CCA trio and the Vader Balanced are similarly tuned, but both are one of the best iems under 30 usd."
"I downgraded from the meet 2 to se since I was only using 1080p and am happy with my choice! ... If you’re planning on just doing 1080p I’d save the cash and go meet se."
"JLab go sport + FTW. ... I have the same sweaty ear issue and the beats fall out of my head. ... The jlab are cheap and even they stay in. (Because they hook over your ear)"

"they had the perfect profile that doesn’t get pressed into your brain when you put your helmet on. ... I would honestly just get them again but I haven’t found a pair that are as low-profile."

"The sound coming from the TOZOs sounded "anemic as fuck" and I couldn't get them to sound anywhere as loud and powerful as the others."
"The nc9 had no volume or bass even after adjusting the eq,"
"found them very quiet ... On my PC or on my IPhone."

"You can also hear everything else that is going on around you so quite often whatever you are listening to is drowned out by external noise."
"If I go at a busy time at the gym I can barely hear my music over the machines making the treadmill even harder."
"Absolutely can hear everything even when I have the volume all the way up cause I’m hurting doing 1K repeats."

"Pressure can be a pain for the Orchestra Lite on longer gaming sessions ... plus imo they r a bit too big and heavy. ... Definitely would pick Aful over OL due to comfort and size. ... I believe most people would agree the Ol is not very comfortable!"
"the shell was uncomfortable for me and after a few hours my ears hurt and i had to turn and push the iems deeper into my ear."
"Just be aware they are unvented and cause pressure problems in some people's ears."

"they are not sturdy. ... Actually, I think I’m on my 5th pair in 2 years and I am a weekend overnight backpacker. ... I’ve had the treads come loose less than 15 miles out of the box. ... Their durability is crap to the point it’s hard to believe a legit company accepts this as their product."
"They’re dogshit for rocky terrain with mesquite and cacti around. ... The bottom of the sole is 95% foam and cactus thorns and mesquite spines will go right through them into your feet, ask me how I know lol. ... An absolute no-go for rugged hikes in the desert."
"they begin to fall apart after 200 miles. ... these shoes often don't last a year at the rate I use them. ... I put in a warranty claim regularly because these shoes often don't last a year at the rate I use them."
c_marten 1.0I have these [cheap little dudes](https://www.jlab.com/products/go-sport-plus-earbuds-graphite?srsltid=AfmBOooVTIYrX3Zsd82LsDRmCtLty07CBXU5EqYVX-2jUbGX42HRhtAr) and while not sold as hearing protection they do a pretty reasonable job of it for residential sites. No frills. They don't allow select noises through, etc. but I mostly work by myself anyway.
DefiantJob2508 1.0Looks like the 255 Music uses BLE (bluetooth low energy). There's pro and cons to that... Apparently, one of the cons of BLE is latency and dropouts due to the single stream limitation = only one earbud connects directly to the watch. I've also had issues with my new earbuds (JLAB GO SPORT+)...and Garmin suggests to pair the earbud on the same side as you wear the watch (example: left wrist, left ear) for a "direct line of sight" for the signal. Will be trying this on my next run: Connecting left earbud first, then removing the right one from the case. Crossing my fingers... Another user has suggested Bose QC Earbuds II, but I don't want to dish out another $200 just so my watch works as advertised.
Desperate_Bed8132 1.0This is what I have, and I think they're great!
_JahWobble_ 1.0I had two pairs of JLabs Go Sport + and the first pair failed within two months and the second within 30 days. I was also unhappy with the company's response when I tried to exchange the first pair under warranty.
joeybab3 1.0If you are going to go for it go for the go sport+ which is the same price but has more features like app support and customizable controls and eq
Should be great for that, you also will have a 2 year warranty so if for some reason you had a bad battery or something to that effect you would be covered for a new set. If you do go with them I highly recommend doing the registration so you can get the cloud foam tips free of charge, I use them on my epic sports and it makes it so much better to run with them or any earbuds really (more isolation and less of that sound/noise leak when you are stepping heavily)
jo_noby 1.0I just bought my fourth pair of headphones/earphones that I cannot return and wish I had started at the end. My problem is they fall out of my ears. Also I can't afford the shockz. So on a recommendation from somewhere in Reddit I purchased the JLab GO Sport+. These are the kind that are separate buds, but have a hook to go over your ear. Can confirm glasses stayed on, and buds stayed in ears. They are super cheap too.
JLab go sport + FTW. I have the same sweaty ear issue and the beats fall out of my head. The jlab are cheap and they stay in. (Because they hook over your ear)
I use the J lab go sport + which have a hook for over the ear. Apple and beats fall out on me, these don’t. They are about $40 so the price was right. They do work with only one in, should u want to. Eventually hope to try the shokz.
Yeah they hold a charge for a surprising amount of time too, and are less fussy to pair and re-pair to different devices. Definitely the best set I have tried under $100.
LooseQuestion3037 1.0I got a super cheap pair of head phones JLab GO Sport+ for like $30. The sound quality isn't amazing and it doesn't have sound cancelling but they do not fall out and I can still hear my surrounding. I got them to replace my JBL reflect aero (which I sadly lost) which were also great. The aeros have a setting that allows you to hear your surroundings
Mundane-Wedding1 1.0Get the [Jlab go sport](https://www.jlab.com/products/go-sport-plus-earbuds-graphite) ($25) take off the rubber ear pieces, and put them in the ear muffs of your helmet. Lasted me 2 seasons so far. Or just do the aforementioned with your Powerbeats. My smith helmet has a little Velcro on the earmuffs you can peel back to tuck earbuds in
Optimal_Collection77 1.0I'd recommend something like these. I used them for running and are far more secure and if I was to buy them again I'd go for something with noise cancellation. https://www.jlab.com/en-gb/products/go-sport-plus-earbuds-sand
rxg__089 1.0I love my JLABs. I use the JLAB Go Sport+ right now and just use one ear bud. Still aware of my environment and I love the hook that goes over my ear so they don't fall out. Granted I'm listening to audiobooks and podcasts only so sound quality isn't a critical issue, but I'm still extremely satisfied with my cheap set up.
