Playtime: 6 hours

Price: B6,900 

Users love: Pretty much everything. They’re some of the highest-rated wireless buds out there thanks to crisp audio (both music and calls) and a price tag that’s not completely crazy. 

Users hate: They look bulky in your ears and the battery life’s not what it could be.

Playtime: 8 hours

Price: B4,690

Users love: Robust looks are matched with construction that can handle what the gym throws at them. The armband storage case is a handy accessory. Sound is quality but not best in class, while battery life is great. 

Users hate: Try them on before you buy—for some they fit perfectly, while others report issues with the size. The base could be better.

Playtime: 8 hours

Price: B5,900

Users love: The clean, minimal design. Fast Fuel charging gives you two hours of battery life in five minutes. Easy compatibility with iPhones and balanced sound quality. 

Users hate: Poor outside noise cancelation. Bass not great, especially by Beats’ standards.

Playtime: 4.5 hours

Price: B8,690

Users love: They’re completely wireless—meaning no cable to go around your neck. Great job, then, that the fit is really secure. The Jabra app brings up a whole stack of useful stats about your workout, and they also have programmed workouts that’ll offer you in-ear advice. Sound quality’s superb. 

Users hate: They’re expensive. And that wireless system could turn into a costly vanity—try finding one of these when it falls out in the park. The battery life is also short.
