robinhood752I too am curious. I see amazon has them for $99 with a $20 click to enable coupon. The reviews are decent. Plus not having to wait 45+ days for them it good.

robinhood752I don't have them, but a co-worker brought them to my attention the other day (they were named in a Wired article titled "The Best Headphones for $100 or Less").
From the photos (look at the pink set on Amazon), it seems like they stick out from your ear by quite a bit. That would generally make me nervous, but I'd think that would make them more precarious at the gym. All of my true wireless earbuds have a more flush fit, which makes me more comfortable.

robinhood752For what it's worth, these TaoTronics TT-BH052 buds are my day-to-day at work set. They don't stick out a lot, but they aren't flush. The fit is reasonably secure - they've never fallen out accidentally, but I don't know how they'd hold up to a lot of motion. I'm not a fan of the touch control because I find myself starting/stopping music when I'm just trying to put them in or adjust them. Sound is good streaming Apple Music or Amazon Music from an iPhone.

I've got a pair of Jabra Elite 65t buds that I'm still trying to get a good fit on (I've misplaced the spare tips that came with them). These have great reviews, but I haven't used them enough to comment. They were quite a bit more expensive than the TaoTronics and I don't know that they were worth it.
I recently picked up a pair of Soundcore Liberty 2 Pro buds when they were available for pre-order. I wear these on the train to work and I like them a lot. Fit is good - sound is good. They have little rubber fins which hold them in place securely. I'm not sure I would have bought them at $150, but I'm glad that I have them now.

robinhood752DigitalTrends also gave them an Editors' Choice and rates them above Apple and Samsung: Forget Airpods. These $100 earbuds have superior sound and sweatproofing: https://www.digitaltrends.com/headphone-reviews/1more-stylish-review/

robinhood752I have these - they are very comfortable, very light, and very compact when compared to most other wireless buds. Stays in place too. As someone mentioned, the sound is not exactly hifi, but it's very fun. They also block nearly no external noise, which seems to suit the fun vs hifi sound. Well worth the money compared to other wireless buds, and suitable for the gym.

flyin2flyoutWait so they don't block any external noise at all? That sucks

PotatoRawrIn my opinion, they block less external noise than Jaybirds (which does a decent job). But the 1More's are much more comfortable, and easier to remove & insert than the Jaybirds. For the gym, I would choose the 1More's over the Jaybirds, even if price was not a consideration. But I would not use them in environments where you really want to block out noise (such as on airplanes). BTW, I don't consider the microphone to be good enough for phone conversations.

robinhood752These do not have an Ipx rating at all, I wouldn’t recommend for the gym, I’ve got complys on mine and it helps to block out noise
