Hi all, for two years I have had Bose sound sport in ear Bluetooth earphones that worked well and i use daily. Now they are dying, I need to look to buy a replacement but see that model is discontinued.
Can I have a similar product recommendation pls?

I also use to have the bose soundsport and replaced them with the soundcore sport X20, its very stable with the hooks and the sound is fine for what I use it for (ie fitness and podcasts). I'm no audiophile but I can notice the difference between the X20 and airpod 4; however the X20 sound is totally fine and you can tweak it on the app.
The noise cancellation isnt particularly good compared to airpods or bose NC but its something. Works ok with a lawnmower but not great on an airplane.
Being wireless the battery isnt as long lasting as the Bose but I'm not doing ultra marathons so this is only an issue if I forget to put them in their case at night.
With the Bose I used to hang them around my neck a bit just for convenience and was worried I would miss that when going with wireless, but overcame that very quickly and forgot it was ever an issue until your question!
If you want a similar but no NC and slightly reduced specs, but $40 cheaper, then the soundcore X10 might do the job.
for running, gym, cycling, HIIT, sprints - these have worked really well, dont fall out, great choice by me!
Tx, I’ll check out
If you own an iPhone, AirPods Pro is a good choice. Why do people never tell us what phone they use when asking questions like this…
+1 for AirPods Pro 2 - blew my mind with noise cancelling.
I was sitting on a beach at a resort reading my book. Pool bar music behind me, motor boats and jet skis in front of me, windy, and waves lapping.
Turn on NC and all I heard from then on was the waves lapping. No kidding !!
its not what you asked for but ive been REALLY impressed with gen 1 shokz openrun pro.
Gen 2 is supposed to be way better.
