I'll be honest I find bluetooth headphones a little annoying sometimes for the obvious reasons you have to charge them and take the time to pair them and all that but the one thing that Bluetooth headphones are really great for is working out they give you the freedom to move around the gym however you want to and you can just stuff your phone in a pocket and forget about it while you're out running and so for this this is my next we're taking a look at bluetooth sport headphones now there are a lot of good Bluetooth sport headphones out there now so how do you even begin to choose which pair is right for you I'll say this it's not necessarily about the purist or absolutely best audio quality yet when it comes to sport headphones these are going to get beat up they're going to be tossed in a gym bag you're going to sweat on them so really what it comes down to is durability of course how well they fit can they hold a charge and okay sound after using more than a dozen different pairs of sport headphones I've come up with two pairs that I think stand out my number one pick for Bluetooth sport headphones RJ Labs epic 2 Wireless sport earbuds J lab has made all the right moves with this pair of headphones from fit - sound - battery life - waterproofing these are sturdy but light with an adjustable cable and they come with eight different pairs of gel tips so they should fit a variety of ears they do require a little bit of adjustment because they go over the ear and then you have to twist them in but once they're in there they're in there and they sound great they offer deep bass with crisp clear vocals my only complaint would be that sometimes they sounded a little bit bright so I'd end up turning the volume down like a lot of other Bluetooth headphones they pair with both iPhone and Android smartphones and they have a standard three button remote and mic attached to the cable they have a ridiculously long 12 hour battery life and they also come with an IP x5 waterproof rating now does this mean that you should go swimming with them no but I've been sweating in them and have spilled water on them from my water bottle and the tap and they're still fine these are perfect though the plastic earbuds themselves are actually pretty big and while I was able to find a comfortable fit eventually the sheer size of those might be an annoyance to some people now if you want to spend a little less money a close second or Plantronics backbeat fit bluetooth headphones what really sold me on these was comfort and convenience it just felt super comfortable to me they go over the ear like the jail abs for a more secure fit and this cables pretty thick but the best part about it is when you throw it in a bag it doesn't tangle the sound quality on these is pretty good it's not super bass heavy but there's enough for beat-driven workout songs also the earbuds are designed to let some noise into the ear canal which some people prefer when they're exercising outdoors and as an added bonus the backbeat fits come with a neoprene armband for your smartphone so why aren't these my topic well the main reason is that the remote control technology is built into the earbuds themselves it's not in a little remote that comes on the cable now in theory having interactive earbuds is not a bad idea but in this case with the Plantronics there's a learning curve and they're also kind of sensitive so every time I went to Goa just the ear buds of my ears I would end up accidentally skipping or pausing a song I just kept wishing that it had a simple three button remote on the cable like the J labs there are a lot of other Bluetooth sport headphones to choose from and like I said this is going to come down to personal sound and fit preferences for you but there are some other things to consider that might be deal-breakers first do you really want to spend 150 to 200 dollars on a pair of headphones that are basically going to get beat up it's kind of how I feel about the Beats powerbeats2 wireless headphones or the brand new j-bird freedom sport headphones they're both really nice and offer good sound but that's a lot of money to spend on sport headphones you'll also want to determine whether you can deal with neck buds while you're working out like the kind on JBL's reflect response Bluetooth sport headphones some people find is really comfortable I find them to be a little doing especially when I'm running there are also some sport headphones that require you to use a mobile app to experience the full benefits of headphones like Jabra sport pace or sport coach but personally last thing I want is to have to download another fitness app whether or not you want six hours of battery life or 12 a flexible cable or an unbending one interactive earbuds or a three button remote noise isolating buds or ambient noise and of course how well they actually fit you is really going to come down to you but you can't go wrong with jail abs epic -
