Raycon - Raycon Fitness Earbuds

I used these since they are so cheap for a long time. I was bothered by the silicone wing piece constantly sliding off. I upgraded to raycon fitness earbuds. My main issue is comfort and staying in the ear, and I refuse to spend 200 for earbuds.

I found that the most comfortable bids for me include the little "wing" you see in the fitness versions of earbuds. I tried a few cheap 20-40 versions but they tended to break, either the device or the wing piece would and deformed within month or two. I refuse to pay 200 for earbuds. Raycon fitness buds have lasted the longest so far, usually a little over 100 dollars. Im fairly happy with them. You could sleep with them in, if you are a back sleeper, or if you aren't laying on it directly (i.e. solo earbud.) I'm not sure I love the touch functionality, I prefer an actual button I can feel depress, but it's fine for my needs. I will never buy the high-end earbuds, my bank account couldn't handle it.

I'd recommend some aftermarket foam replacement tips, probably cheaper than buying something new. Im currently consistently using 3 sets. The most comfortable for me are the Gemini 2s and the Raycon Fitness. I know, absolute two ends of the spectrum. But I use the Raycons when my AirPods are charging for calls and podcasts mostly. I usually leave them in because I forget they're even there. I go to put another set in to realize they're still in there. Most folks aren't going to spend on the Geminis but they are extremely comfortable among the higher end choices.

3 sets is not even a starter collection yet lol Ive got about 12 pairs of tws and another 10 sets of iems. I daily an iPhone, Ive got 2 androids, a razr 60 ultra, Xperia 10vii and I use 2 android based daps. I write reviews of tws for private companies and can keep sets at very steep discounts. Different buds for different uses. Gemini 2, Rex5, ZX1, and Freebuds Pro 4 are my basshead sets for edm and trance. Ive got several sets of open and clip style buds for long term comfort wear. Current favorites are the Free Clip and Cleer Arc 3. Then randoms for specific tasks. My AirPod Pro 2 is great for dictation and phone calls. I use moondrop space travel, liberty 4 pro, raycon fitness, and aviot q3 for casual music with lots of podcasts, news, and NBA games. My nicer iem sets include ThieAudio Hype 4, Dunu Davinci, FF Deuces, and Madoo 512s mainly all using an ibasso dx180.

I use raycon fitness earbuds

I’m still using a 3 year old pair of Raycons that have been through an American laundry washer and dryer….they are the “sport” or work out ones idk. The microphone is now useless so can’t use em for calls anymore but the sound is still great. I mostly use em for the TV now

I hate ads. I will put something back on the shelf if I recall a marketing campaign that annoyed me, not make the purchase..my wife and I needed earphones at the same time and RAYCON had a BOGO sale on their fitness earphones. I think it was Valentine’s Day. I lost them for a couple days and ended up finally finding mine in the laundry dryer…..meaning they went through the washing machine (a commercial grade speedqueen) I put them in a drawer for a couple weeks, charged them for a couple days and they worked.. They still work great (3 years now) (The dog ate the wife’s pair)

Been using fitness raycons I bought 5 years ago. If I want good audio I'll play docked

I'm a little surprised not to see the raycon fitness or impact on this list. I really love mine.

Actually compare it to other current fitness earbuds... I find this reviewer's review of Raycon true based on my experience as well... [I Tried MORE YouTube Scams: Raycon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xbt7DuetOOg&t=260s)

Raycons are ok but in my opinion they suck i have a pair for almost 1yr and when they first arrived the left one didnt turn on and so i returned it then after i got a different pair the left one was slightly more quite. Another thing The sound quality is horrible so i would recommend smth else.

I like them. I ordered Beats Fit Pro because of the positive reviews, but never got them to work. The left one would not charge and when I removed one (it didn't matter if it was left or right), they dropped the connection. I returned them and received a new pair. The new pair stayed connected, but the left earbud still wouldn't charge and never worked. I give up on Beats. Raycon Fitness was recommended and was much cheaper. They worked great right from the start. I am not an audiophile, my hearing is crap already (permanent/constant tinnitus and hearing loss in the higher frequencies), so the sound quality is plenty good for me. The ANC works as well as my AirPods (which helps with my tinnitus - note, this isn't the case for everyone with tinnitus), and they stay in my ears (which AirPods don't do). Overall, I'm very happy with them.

Redmi Buds. I bought them for my mom. I have Raycons myself, the Fitness Earbuds. They have no issues, other than me resetting them through a button on the case every few months because the sound would sometimes start "bouncing" from one to another, like, you're randomly getting 50% volume on one side and then another. I went swimming in a river with them and they're still ok. Idk why the influencers are promoting their promo codes because the other discount codes available online (any coupon website) get you a much bigger discount. Something like 15% from the influencer vs 30% from the website, and they also do seasonal sales, I got mine during Christmas time. Redmi is certainly cheaper and I don't see much difference in the actual build and sound quality. I'd just buy Redmi for myself if I had to choose again. As for wired, any Panasonic will do, mine have survived from 2018 and until 2024. Iirc, a pet chewed on them and one of the earbuds died. They were dirt cheap, under $10 at the time. I also have over-the-ear Soundcore Life Q30 that I mostly use at home, the ear pads wear out every year like a clock and the headband pad just wore out 3 years after the purchase, with everyday use. Stock ones were soft as a cloud, guess, that made them less durable. They can work both through Bluetooth and wired as they have the 3.5 mm slot and a cord bundled in. No changes to the sound quality and battery life so far, but be careful when replacing the ear pads because it can damage the ANC functionality if you don't fit them properly.

I use Raycons. They have an active pair that are still kicking.

I too bought fitness buds after seeing ads on Facebook. It was ok, but the noise cancelling was lousy, and the battery life decreased. Now one bud died. The company will not replace it for over a year. I did not complain until the bud died. Save your money and try something else.

Got these via YouTuber Discount, made the leap. Arrived quickly, excited to try, sound "ok" and good fit. However, as a neurodivergent person, i was very disappointed to find out that the advertised Noise Cancellation does not actually remove outside sound at all. The other audio modes sounds muddy, but the default mode sounds least bad, the Bass mode is just awful. I had severe issues over Bluetooth with a Samsung Galaxy S7 & S20, buds in the ear and phone in my left pants pocket, would very very frequently drop and crackle. This issue disappeared when using a newer phone like my S24, but something to keep in mind for older or cheaper phone models. My buds last for +-2 hours of continuous playback, after which they need to be charged using the case. I would not recommend these to anyone. Another note, even as a verified purchaser, on the RayCon website they cherry-pick the reviews. I dropped a review, they chose not to post it.. easy way of keeping up a mostly positive review count

Did you find anything OP?  I have a hand disability and not enough motor control to double tap or triple tap etc and it takes ages to pause like that as well.  So, I have a pair of Everyday Earbuds from Raycon that I bought in 2018 for about £30 that has a massive push button to click once to play/pause. 3 clicks for Volume up/down. Sounded ok too, had 12 hours constant playback one charge, about 3 more charges from the case do only charged up twice a week. The Bluetooth reached half way down my toad, anywhere indoors, and at the bottom of my 30 foot garden. Didn't have to carry my device into the bathroom or outside for dog toilet breaks.  My Galaxy buds won't stretch to the room next door so I have to take my devices into the bathroom and into the garden when the dog needs a poop 😔.  Only problem is, they are permanently closed and don't have ANC on/off so if someone talks to me, I can't hear unless I move it slightly. I did get a 2nd pair of Raycons and was quite shocked at how rubbish they were.  £49.99 but added ANC, sounded terrible, one ear kept draining, loud whining feedback in the case due to the external mic coming on again inside the case. Never bought from them again although they did send me 2 more pairs consecutively to replace the ones that didn't work so I ended up with 3 pairs of partially working, rubbish sounding, tap-controlling Raycons. But, the first pair were brilliant for the money and physical buttons, they sounded OK too for podcasts/audiobooks. £30 I was happy.  Like you I'd like ANC and physical buttons you can't miss.  Those darned tappity in one teeny tiny area are no good even if you've got gloves off. Especially with long thick hair over the ears.  I wonder if other people with disabilities like myself struggle to find physical buttons? Jabra are too costly for the abuse they get. 

Honestly kinda underrated of you want a cheap pair raycon 1st gen ones are pretty solid

Raycons.

I use Raycons. They're ear buds, but they cancel noise super well and they often offer discounts.

I had this same problem and Raycon is the only earbud that fits and stays put no matter what. I would try them out.

I felt that way about my Raycons and than I have NC9s by Tozo. They are awesome. I'd suggest you try them out.

Same here my raycon didn't last either. Thinking of switching to sony or soundcore they seem way more reliable.

I use Raycon earbuds. Cheaper than AirPods, sound quality and volume is decent, I can still hear traffic and most importantly, they’re comfortable enough I can wear them for multiple hours with no discomfort

I just have raycon earbuds, and the built-in mic is fine. I don't talk on the phone much while driving, but it's all I really need. it has awareness mode too.

I used to have trouble with ear buds staying in my ears but Raycons are the only ones ive found that fit and stay in. They also came with a ton of different sized rubber pieces.

I know alot of peeps use a cardo & ear plugs but you probably already know of that, your idea is probably relatively niche as helmets are designed to hug your head so any earbuds will likley get caught when putting the helmet on, I tried running raycon buds and they ended up dislodging when I put the helmet on, have samsung FE now with noise cancelling so might try that but no doubt I will have the same issue.

Honestly raycon earbuds are my go to. AirPods hurt my ears and they fall out constantly.

My mom got me Raycon’s a few (four to five) years ago, still going strong. My sister other the other hand went through two pairs her first year. Depends how you use them I guess.

I'll live and die for raycon

My only real complaint is the case, it’s rather inconvenient to get the earbuds out of. I also had it clipped to my bag and it opened on its own, one of the earbuds fell out but I was able to find it. Other than that I haven’t had many other earbuds to compare it to but they’re far better than the Raycons I was previously using. Definitely worth the price!

Raycons are absolute trash after 6 months. Then got finicky charging the right bud. About a year and the right bud would last about 15 minutes on a full charge.

Honest to God Every single set of buds I've ever owned makes it 6 months or less before something breaks Ive had skull candys Jbls Galaxy buds Raycons All last 2-6 months before something goes wrong I wear buds pretty much 24 hours a day And I've had a pair of tozo t10's from Amazon for $20 that have lasted a year and a half with 0 problems. I refuse to spend ridiculous amounts anymore.

Powerbeats Pro. I had Galaxy Buds 2. They wouldn't stay in my ear, the screens came off the first week, and the right one had the speaker just fall off one day. I tried Raycon. Absolute shite. Returned within 48 hours. Beats aren't perfect if there's a lot of ambient noise, but at least they stay in my ears.

I really hated the bone conductor headphones personally. I live and bike in a city and while the headphones were good. The moment i stepped outside, I couldn't hear anything coming out of them. Even just subway rides I felt like I was listening to everyone else but music. I use some cheap raycons, keep them on awareness mode and use some medical tape. I would bandage one headphone In my ear during messenger days and the routine stuck

I enjoy the raycon products long battery and great sound quality

That's what I got. Had them for like 4 years now. Only one of them works. The button on the one that works just fell out and I've glued it together once after it broke in half when I dropped it. Thinking about buying another pair they seem like real troopers.

I use AirPods Pro, Raycons, and I managed to luck into some really cheap Bose over ear headphones years ago. Those are all really nice. The raycons stay put better than the AirPods illl be honest

I use Raycon, they're relatively cheap, about 5-6 hours of battery, and great audio. (or i think so at least, I have nothing to really compare it to.) Though they do have an issue with connecting sometimes, every hour or 2 they'll unsync with each and you have to turn them off and on again. And throwing them in and out of they case won't work, you have to manually turn them off by holding down the 2 buttons on the earpods simultaneously for about 10 seconds.

It is when it happens but it's not THAT common idk why I said that

Second this, I've been using mine for work for about a year now. Heavy daily use - if I'm not on Teams calls I'm listening to music/audiobooks. I charge them once every 3ish days? They pair with multiple devices pretty well. Every once in awhile they glitch out and I need to unpair then repair to the device but that's pretty rare and a quick fix. Also probably user error lol

I bought a couple pairs of Raycons when all the YouTubers were pushing them, and having discount codes. I think I paid about $70 a pair for mine. I later bought Soundcore Liberty 3 earbuds, and the sound quality is night and day! Now the raycon sound muddy to me. The Soundcore earbuds are very clean and clear sounding, plus better range. Lower lows and higher highs.

I’ve gone through 4 pairs of raycons, and was so disappointed with them. This was like 2-3 years ago tho

What the f*** is with all the hate with raycon earbuds you can get them for less than $95 most of the time they're running discounts typically you can get a pair for around $65 and I'd say that's pretty good for the raycons that hold up really well The cases are fairly cheap you get replacement parts if you really need to The cases are interchangeable I love my raycons I bought the brands that some of these guys are recommending like nothing and all that The speaker ended up sucking there was no base and if there was base either couldn't hear nothing (I guess that's where it got its name) and well I do agree JBL is a good brand I would still recommend raycon if you have the money The e25s are great I really don't get why people have a hate truth or at this point they outperformed my Google pixel earbuds and my Samsung once

I’ve used Raycons for years and love them.

Buy ray cons. I've been using them for almost 7 years and I've only had one pair go out from going through the washing machine one too many times. I wasted so much money on cheaper headphones and earbuds thinking it was saving me money. For context, I listen to enough music to cost Spotify money with my membership (over 160 hrs a month)

Check the Raycon website, several that might fit the budget, different styles you may like.. My Raycons pairs with my S24 Ultra no problems. Have you tried to unpair unused items in your list, maybe you have too many connected. Had that problem with my S23 Ultra.

Raycon has both Anc- active noise cancelling And Awareness mode- you can hear thru the earbud They never fall out and last 10 hours on a charge and 40 Hours with the case. Best earbuds I’ve ever had and it’s not even close.

yeah mine disconnect and then reconnect randomly to my computer, but for the cost and how long they've been kicking (almost 4 years) it's been well worth it imo

i haven’t had issues with my raycons.
