I use to have the Motorola S10-HD, but they really started to wear out and the battery life stunk.

I upgraded to a set of Jaybird X2s. A lot lighter and much better sound quality.

    plantronics backbeat fit. I tried the jaybirds but couldn't get them to fit well in my ears. The Plantronics are a great fit for me.

    What kind of battery life do you get for those?

    I have these and they are awesome. The ear fit is comfortable and battery life is good. I can use them all day if needed, but usually only use them for morning workouts, while driving and listening to podcasts and talking on the phone; so, interspersed throughout the day. If needed, they would last at least 4-5 days being used like that.

    Picked up a pair of Soundpeats Q9As on Amazon for $20. I'm not an audiophile, so they're great for my needs (training in the gym and running).

    I gave up on the S10's years ago. They were very uncomfortable (plastic pressed on my head) and the sound was not good (couldn't keep them tight in my ears and the sound suffered). I tried a bunch of different BT and wired earbuds before I found my Jaybirds (original bluebud x's). Love 'em.

    I had similar complaints about the Moto S-10s. They were also rather bulky. I had the Moto S-9s previously and they unrecoverably died during a half marathon I ran (boo!).

    I get at least 12 hours from mine and probably more - gets me through a week of workouts easily without being drained.

    I'm obsessed with mine. They are so comfortable and I LOVE that they let in some ambient noise. It makes me feel a lot safer wearing them running outdoors.
