Recommend me true wireless earbuds (reps)

Looking for good bass and a decent water resistance rating for sweat/possible rain with cardio.


Have considered airpod pros, Jabra 75t, Ankor soundsport, JBL, powerbeats pro, etc. I've read that some like Jabra have connectivity issues though I don't know if this is prevalent or fixed.

Give me ideas brahs.

I went with the Sony WF-1000XM3 and I'm really happy with them so far. Used to have Jaybirds and these are way better in almost every way. Can't comment on the other brands though

I'm familiar with them but they have no sweat resistance

Samsung buds are nice, upgraded to the jabras, great sound.
Only issue is that you can't just connect the left one alone. (I only like using one at a time)

On rc. I'm leaning toward Jabras for their bass. Have you had them long enough to know if there's any real latency/phone connection/recharge problems?

I don't like the AirPods Pro because I don't like jamming things inside of my ear canal. I prefer the AirPods OG 2 because they gently sit on the outside of your ear canal and are comfortable and stay in place. Try both and go with the one that is most comfortable. I use them with a Google Pixel 2 XL and they are awesome! AirPods are the gold standard - everything else is just a pretender.

This, got Air Pods Pro for $150, well worth it, quality is a huge step up from the cheap $30 pair I had before.

I have the PowerBeats Pro and they are the best headphones I've ever owned. They are secure and don't slip out of my ears, have great sound and amazing battery life plus water/sweat resistance. 10/10 would recommend.

No audiophile so take it for what it's worth. I got the MPOW M30's for around $35 and love them:https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Mpow...0PXHHS244YQN66

If I don't like anything else I'll default to the pros. Honestly can't get over the celery stalks on 2nd gen.

Looks like the best for sound that's good. Big as faurk from the pic but good sound rating plus decent water resistance. The case seems to mog others too.

How's the ear hook holding up? I've read some ppl had there's snap over time.

AirPods are fine in sweat and rain. I use them every day in the gym and have been caught many times outside in torrential downpours while still using them. I would not get the charging case wet though (I put it in a ziploc plastic bag if heavy rain). There are many stories on the internet of people actually washing their AirPods by mistake in the washing machine and they came out just fine. AirPods are the gold standard. The design, comfort, fit, build quality and connection is second to none. These are the only Apple products I've ever bought. I'm a Windows and Android guy.

Oh. See I had those stock wired earbuds that came with the iphone SE 2nd get in some rain a couple weeks ago. Now they always stop, fast forward (didn't know they could do that, glitch), skip songs, activate siri which is off, and one bud occasionally doesn't work. It's strange too because a pair I had a couple years ago dealt with the rain mostly fine. So that's why I'm hesitant to do that again with a more expensive one. Doesn't happen often of course so sweat is the main thing to endure.

Jabra Elite Active 75t have been my go to for a while now. I use them daily for the gym as well as all of my conference calls and they've never failed me. They have great sound and great bluetooth range. They can also be had much cheaper that most other wireless buds of similar quality.

I thought Air Pods were lame as fuk, and then I got them and I was like damn these are pretty good. Then I got the Pro's because fuk it why not and damn, they are pretty solid. The noise canceling feature is worth it alone. I can be at the gym and totally separated from the environment in the gym and the chitty edm mashups they always play.

I'm sure there's probably better quality ear buds, but for me, the Air Pod Pro's were ridiculous.

I was originally pissed at the design of the Pro's since it goes into your ear canal, but I now listen to music much quieter since it has noise cancelling abilities, which is likely saving my hearing lol. I used to play my original Air Pods to drown out everything else.

Assume you noticed these ones are refurbished. Not bad for $99 though. I love mine and have not had one hiccup so far. Had like 2 random disconnects since I got them in June.
