Best all-around: Jaybird X4
The Jaybird Tarah (right) sports a more aggressively angled nozzle than the X4 workout earbuds.

- Compared to the X4, the Tarah is more affordable and provides the same functionality.
- Just like the company's flagship earbuds, these are IPX7-rated.
- The control module is easy to operate blindly.
- You can change EQ settings via Jaybird MySound app and apply your preferred profile to other source devices.

The Powerbeats Pro have the same over-ear hook design as the standard Powerbeats, but they ditch the wire connecting them.
Reasons to consider the Beats Powerbeats Pro:
- The Powerbeats Pro have an impeccable 10-hour battery life.
- The H1 chip, also found in the new AirPods, supports hands-free access to Siri.
- An IPX4 water-resistant rating ensures durability for most strenuous workouts.

Best sound: Bose SoundSport Free
If you still want high quality sound while working out, the Bose SoundSport Free true wireless earbuds are an excellent option.
Reasons to consider the Bose SoundSport Free:
- Like the Powerbeats Pro, these have an IPX4 water-resistant rating.
- The right earbud houses tactile controls that are easy to operate while exercising.
- Despite the bulk, the StayHear+ ear tips provide a secure fit.
- Battery life is solid for true wireless earbuds.
Best cheap true wireless: JLab JBuds Air
Silicone ear tips keep things comfortable, while the Cush-Fins effectively keep the 'buds in place.
Reasons to consider the JLab JBuds Air:
- These earbuds feature IP55 dust- and water-resistance
- Although the housings are fairly bulky, they fit well due to the included ear and housings sleeves.
- The shape of the earbuds combats wind noise when running outside.
- On-board controls are comprehensive and include volume adjustment.
Best value: SoundPeats Engine
The SoundPeats Engine Wireless earbuds support aptX and aptX LL, and the magnetic housings are useful when not listening to the 'buds.
Reasons to consider the SoundPeats Engine:
- These earbuds operate via Bluetooth 5.0 and support both aptX and aptX LL, which is a rarity for sub-$40 earbuds.
- IPX6 water-resistance makes these impervious to sweat and splashes.
- The neckband is comfortable for daily wear, making these a versatile option.
What you should know about the best workout earbuds
Due to the IP67 rating, the earbuds can be fully submerged in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes.
- A proper fit can make all the difference in comfort and sound quality. If you're having trouble with the default ear tips, experiment with the other sizes or invest in third-party options.
- Water and sweat-resistance is imperative. At the very least, keep an eye out for an IPX4 rating.
- A bass-heavy frequency response sound, as opposed to a neutral, is often preferred by athletes.
