Bluetooth headphones?

jacdog88 · March 2014

Does anyone use Bluetooth headphones when working out? I'm so fed up with the wires getting in my way!!

I don't like wearing an arm band for my phone but even when I do the wire is a pain to deal with.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, and they are awesome for not having to deal with wires. Depending on your phone and the headphones and where you are, you may get dropouts. My Motorola S9's would get frequent drop outs while working outside with my old phone, but none with my new phone. They fared better in the gym, I'm guessing because the signal could reflect off of walls.

I bought these after they were recomended on some youtube bodybuilder channels. Figured for the money it was worth a shot. Still using them after a year and the battery life is amazing.

Kind of clunky compared to some of the ear buds that are out now though but I dont really care. Sound and volume is good.

Can answer calls, adjust volume and browse music on the headset also.

I have these: http://www.amazon.com/Jaybird-Freedom-Sprint-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B0095P2F1S

They are AWESOME. They never cut out!! Charge lasts about 4 or 5-45 min workouts

EarHero with the Bluetooth clip. So light you forget its there. Great for running and biking cause you can still hear your surroundings. Just clip the bluetooth to your collar and you are set.

Last 7hrs before needing charging.

I use bluetooth headphones for working out...I get a good 6-7 hours out of mine. It depends on how much you sweat though because I sweated out one pair. They were promptly replaced because they were still under warranty and it hasn't happened with the replacement set.

I do. I do not use ear buds however. I use over the ear headphones. I got these from Amazon about 6 months ago and I use them daily.

I have charged them a total of 4 times in 6+months. They have spectacular sound and have awesome padding on them and never hurt to have on.

I just got the AresX Freedom headphones and so far they work well with my iphone. I bought them because of their reviews on amazon. I have only charged them so far for the initial charge and have used them for about 3 hours so far. So much easier working out with them than with ones with wires.

Been using these for a couple of years now

Originally got a little over 10 hours per charge, still get over 8 hours and it uses a mini-USB for charging. Has survived over 1500 miles of running along with other activities and road trips with no problems. Will buy again.

Wow! Didn't expect to get so many responses so quickly.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I'll weed through them all and see which ones might be best for my needs.

I usually workout for 2-3 hours at a time so battery life is important.
