Compare JLab Go Sport+ vs Shokz OpenFit2+. The price difference is about $170.00. I have both and think the JLab does a better job at filtering the exterior sound as long as you have the right fit on your earpiece. JLab has decent sound quality. Shokz is amazingly better.

Looks 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.

I 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.

If 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)

I 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.

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.

I 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

JLab GO Sport+ they have a "safe feature" that lets you hear what's going on around you.
