My favorite headphones for working out
I have bought several different sets of headphones for working out. I like to listen to music while I jump rope, while I jog, and also while I do a Zumba routine off a playlist on Spotify. I have a smallish, odd-shaped head and ears apparently, so it's been tough to find something that would work for me. Several years ago I got a head set that was a Sony Walkman with built-in mp3 player and it just wrapped around the back of my neck and had no wires. It was a neat idea, but the pieces that went inside my ears were pretty painful. A few months ago I got a "wireless" bluetooth set that is basically earbuds with a cord that attaches them together and hangs down. This was not a good solution because of gravity, which constantly pulled one earbud or the other out of my ear. The earbuds that came with my iPhone pull out of my ears and I constantly have to adjust them.So, I saw these a couple of weeks ago and they had good reviews and seemed like a suitable solution for me, so I bought them. They are exactly what I need!First of all, I don't have to constantly be struggling with gravity, as they go over my head instead of being pulled down by a cord. They do slide a bit if they're not adjusted properly, but they are easily adjusted to a small head like mine.Secondly, they don't have wires or cords to bump (I'm often clumsy and forgetful). The controls for play/pause, skip forward and backward, and volume are on the right ear. I'm still getting the knack of remembering each button's position without looking, but it's very simple, which I love.Thirdly, the earphones are large enough to cover my tiny ears and give me the music envelope I desire while working out. I don't hear people talking or moving, like I can with earbuds in. Also, the earphones are easily wiped clean of any moisture (my head apparently sweats a lot when I dance around). They are comfortable enough to listen to music while jumping around and also while relaxing.Fourth, they keep a charge for a super long time, and they're easy to charge. I usually plug them into my computer every couple days, and I haven't had them die on me, even when I've fallen asleep listening to music (which has happened a couple of times).Some concerns for your information:The head band came slick and shiny but quickly showed fingerprints and smudges. I don't mind it so much, but it's a reality. I just wiped them off with a rag, and the headphones looked good as new.Answering the phone is weird. The phone has rung a couple of times while I was using these headphones (and they were attached to my iPhone), and I pushed the play/pause button to answer it. I couldn't hear the person speaking through the headphones, but I could through my phone. And the person couldn't hear me speaking at all. So I just disconnected the headphones altogether and used my phone solely for the conversation. I would rather just use my phone by itself while taking calls in general, so I don't mind that these headphones don't work for me for that purpose.So I love these headphones and I'm happy with my purchase. The cost was fair, they were shipped quickly, and they even came already charged! (That was a gift in itself!) I'm really glad I found these.

Overall for the price I think they are a good deal. Just have to get used to the shortcomings.
These are actually a nice pair of BT headphones. Very easy to setup one click and your done. BUT they fit weird the pads are pretty small so they don't cover your ear easily, they move around. If you have a small head these may be perfect. The sound is pretty good, not great, not bad. The good is the range, I paired them to my Imac in the office and walked into the garage 25' away and still had a signal! That is through my office door and garage door! So that was Great!Buttons also are bad as there are no dents or humps so you can't tell if your even toughing anything as they set even with the rest of the headphone.Overall for the price I think they are a good deal. Just have to get used to the shortcomings.

A surprisingly wonderful little headset!
I bought this on a whim because it was on one of super sales. It's a fantastic little headset!Pros¤ long battery life¤ clear sound¤ comfortable, adjustable fit¤ easy to connect¤ good range before it starts to cut outCons¤ does not support Android for battery widget :(¤ the led flashes consistently and is very bright. Get a dimmer sticker for it!¤ I've had trouble with people hearing me at my normal speaking volumeAll in all, this has been a wonderful headset. Since the ear pads aren't fixed, you can adjust and rotate them to sit anywhere you want on your head. I've even fallen asleep with them on though I don't recommend it. I love not having plastic inside my ear and with the fit you get it cuts out most sound around you. I'm not a runner so I can't tell you if it works for such things.

Poor - In pretty much every way imaginable
I've used a ton of wireless Bluetooth headsets.While there are worse (hence TWO stars instead of ONE) I cannot recommend these at all.They are not comfortable to wear. The ear pieces DO shift around (that's the best thing I can say about them) and you would think that would give you a good set of options for comfort - but it doesn't help.The controls LOOK easy to get to - but they just aren't as accessible as you would think. Not much thought in the design there.The charging plug is generic microUSB (there is one more point in PLUS column) and it is easy to get to.The sound quality is poor-to-average. If this is your first set of headphones or you've never used headphones before - maybe the sound here is "ok". I have a pair of RocketFish headphones from Best Buy (so far the best sounding BT I've had) and it doesn't even sound like you/re listening from the same source.The overall RANGE may be ok - but these things fall super short in BASIC use case scenarios. For example, if my Samsung Galaxy S8 is in my RIGHT pocket, the sound stutters - go to LEFT pocket? It works ok. That's just silly.So - stay far away. That's my recommendation.
