I've used several that range from $20-$100. The more expensive ones sound great but don't fit well or stay in my ear. Some will fall out while I'm just sitting.

So my primary is jibtrue from skullcandy I think. Like $25. They are small, single driver. Sound good enough.

I looked up jibtrue and they seem decent and good price too, might get them if I decide to go with earbuds, thanks.

I use the Anker Soundcore XR. Cheap, good eq, stays in my ears. Very comfy

I have the NC2 Soundcore's - LOVE them. I'm a total Anker fanboy though.

It seems they don't have them anywhere in my area, not even to order online, but thanks.

Don't wear headphones to run, you need your hearing to stay safe.

Depends on where you run. The treadmill isn't going to be a risk.

True, but if you're out in the woods, getting some real elevation and terrain change, you're going to want to hear for stuff. You don't want a mountain lion sneaking up on you.

I have this chink Honor sporty one, the earbuds are very solid and sit so well that when you pull them out, you might pull out the entire rubbery part as well (happened to me couple times this year, almost lost it too). But man, bluetooth is so shit, often when I just walk around on the street some interference or wind starts fucking with it and the stutters begin. Other than that it's great when it works.

The Bluetooth protocol limits how well any transducer will sound. Personally, I pick a recognized brand and get their median priced product. Spending a lot on a bluetooth audio product makes little sense. You're buying bluetooth for convenience only. So pick one you think looks good and isn't too expensive. No more than $50 is reasonable. I don't have a brand recommendation because there are so many. I think they're all made in China by a handful of manufacturers, so it probably makes no difference.

I didn't plan on soending too much. I've been using wired headphones until now, but cable got fucked so I'm thinking on trying out Bluetooth.

I don't have high expectations tbh.

Thanks for your advice.

I use Samsung ear buds for day to day. Idk how they'd do for running but they have a mic built in so you can use it to pass ambient noise if you want.

I'd recommend these https://a.co/d/5mJeSei They're under $40 and sound and fit great, come with a bunch of different sized ends and u can download an app to change the eq. Oh and u can program them thru the app so that when you single/double tap the side of the earbud, it'll pause/change the track/volume which is pretty convenient.
