Suggest a Good Pair of Headphones/Earphones for Running/Gym

Hi All,

With prime day deals, I'm looking for suggestions on what might be a decent pair of headphones/earphones to use at the gym

I do a lot of cardio and prefer ones that stay in ear, I've tried earphones like sony wf-c500 and jbl everest elite 100, but they keep coming off

Finally had bought a sony wh-1000xm3 about three-four years ago and they have been great. Could drown out all external noise while in the gym and they stay on.

My requirements are: sweatproof and noise cancellation that is close to sony while on a budget

Budget: Preferably under or around $50. But wouldn't mind paying any amound under $100

Please offer me your suggestions

    $50…cmon mate.

    • Sorry is that too low? I've seen listing for $45-$49 with soundpeats stuff, but could not work out which is good. Like I mentioned, would not mind paying anything under $100

  • Maybe Soundcore Sport X20

    $112

    Says it has ANC, and importantly has ear loop to keep it scure

    Otherwise just prioritise ear loops and turn music up if you’re on a budget lol

    Stretch your budget. Shokz OPENRUN are currently $159.

    It means you can still hear bikes and scooters on shared paths and cars when on roads. Currently having Prime Day Deals.

  • Samsung Buds FE, sit super well in ears, noise cancel is good enough often $89-$99 on amazon

  • Shokz.

    lol noise cancelling for <50.00

  • Jabra elite 4 active if you can get them (there may be some
    Left over stock)

    Same as you, do loads of cardio and they’re great

  • I have the soundcore x20. ANC is ok but not brilliant. Good enough for vacuuming but not good enough for flying. Stay in place, good battery life, connect easily and on ear controls. Sounds is pretty good

    Not $50 though
