Worlds MOST Sweat Proof Headphones?!

2018-05-08
I've gone through about 15 different pairs of Bluetooth headphones in the times and smartphones and Bluetooth started being a thing and not all of the headphones were winners I normally wear a bluetooth headphones when I'm at the gym or when I'm running I have run a couple marathons in the past so go through bluetooth headphones fairly quickly when I'm purchasing a pair of bluetooth headphones I look for two things one sound quality obviously and durability if it can survive my workouts and long runs sweat is probably one of the worst enemies of electronics not just because it's liquid it's also salty which is extra corrosive to the fragile internal circuits and headphones that stopped working are the worst kind of headphones anchor reached out with two of their brand new sound core headphones for me to try out and saying these things are sweat proof they have 700 headphones to give away to you guys along with 10,000 discount codes so stick around to the end of the video for that information the best way headphones can truly be sweat proof is with the coating applied directly to the circuit boards with the right coating it should be able to survive all kinds of liquids like soda sweat water and if that coating exists it would definitely support anchors claim that these are the world's most sweat proof headphones the only way to check out for sure is from the inside let's get started so I've had both of these headphones for about two weeks now Ankur says these are the world's most sweat proof headphones which is a pretty bold claim considering how inexpensive they are we have the sound course spirits over here and then we have the sound course Spirit X's over here the X's have that little ring around the back so that wraps around your ear the spirit headphones are just the buds a long strap and magnets on the ends to keep them from dangling around they come with additional ear buds for different sized ears but I just use the standard ones and they stayed in just fine the over ear spirit exit phones wrap around your ear for the more heavy exercises like sprinting but the ear wrap around part is super soft and I've worn them for a few hours at a time with no problem the sound core spirits are the smaller round in-ear headphones with little bits of rubber that conform to the insides of your ear taking this review to the inside we find some sealed plastic which is good for waterproofing and then we see the internal rechargeable battery taking special care enough to puncture the little guy I'll slice through the outer plastics to reveal the blue 50 or 60 milliamp power it's kind of hard to tell at this point battery tucked up inside so we've seen the earpiece plastics or sweat proof let's jump down to the control circuit the microUSB charging port flap is to help keep liquid and dust out peeling off the rubberish buttons that are sealed to the controller we finally exposed the circuit board and immediately see there is a coating on top of the board the whole thing shines uniformly across the surface when I jump in with the drop of water though we see it's not hydrophobic the water still clings to the board anchor calls they're coating a sweat guard technology a multi-layered nano coating spray that keeps the metal contacts from corroding or shorting out when liquid is present it resists both sweat and seawater at the same time pretty cool stuff I'll pop out the earpiece speaker before I move on to the spirit X's it's a tiny little guy completely sealed inside of the plastic housing I guess it depends on what kind of exercise you're gonna be doing with these headphones if you're gonna be doing a lot of sprints you know high mobility stuff the ones that wrap around your ears are obviously going to stay on better than the ones that just go in your ear but I've been able to run normal distances with these ones just fine the spirit X's also have interchangeable rubber tips depending on the shape of your ear the speaker housing is plastic can sealed shut watertight but there is a larger speaker inside when compared to the regular spirits kind of interesting probably just because there's more room if I take my metal pry tool to the battery housing hope we pop off the anchor logo to find a 90 milliamp power battery powering these headphones and if we slide down to open up the watertight controller housing which is rather difficult considering the amount of rubber and glue holding it all together we see these headphones have the same impermeable nano coating over the circuits still not hydrophobic but thick enough to keep liquid and more importantly sweat from corroding the internals are they really the world's most sweat resistant headphones only time will tell but it looks like from the teardown that there is a coating on the circuit boards and they should be able to hold their own unlike my Beats headphones which died three times in one year because they didn't have any coating at all on that circuit board for the price fees are pretty incredible remember Ankur is giving away 700 of these headphones and 10,000 discount codes pretty sure the giveaways valid in the UK the United States Germany and Canada all the official rules and details will be in the video description right below this video if you have any questions leave them down in the comments and let me know what your current favorite song is I need some more music options thanks a ton for watching and I will see you around
