Looking to buy new headphones for gym, what's your poison Misc?

My Bose gave in after 5 years (sucks though, sound is still great, but the fabric is tearing apart).

I'm tempted to get quality headphone again, but if I' being honest, I'm disappointed that I spent nearly 300$ for those and it only lasted me 5 years.


Any suggestions?

Honestly I buy the Onn ones from Walmart for like $25 or so.

Never had a problem, last pair lasted me about 2 years, then brought another pair.

Same with earbuds, just brought Onn brand from Walmart for $20.

Don't mind because they're cheap, if they break or I lose them no big deal.

If you buy into sound quality you're a dumb cuck, if that's even real I can guarantee the difference is negligible.

That's why grandma's apple pie rocks and yours sucks.

I used to do this too and would recommend.

The jack on my phone started glitching out new pairs when I plugged them in though and I was forced to get AirPods that don’t plug in.

The AirPods are good, but were more expensive up front which I wasn’t happy about.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

I had those air pod things and put them in a drawer and never used them for a few years. I went and charged them up and now the battery only lasts about 15 minutes from a full charge. I think there is some sort of charge controller circuit inside that goes by date and intentionally prevents the batteries from charging fully to force people to go buy new ones every 3-5 years. There is no reason why the batteries would be bad. I never used the things.

Shokz open ear conduction headphones are great. You can hear the music and hear what's going on around you

AirPods Pro, seamlessly pairs with my iPhone, has good sound quality, and are small and out of the way.
