TheNorthernRunner May 2018 9:10am, 13 May 2018 10 posts	0 TheNorthernRunner Could anybody recommend a decent pair of wireless headphones/earbuds? I’m looking for no wires, good sound, minimum 3 hours battery life and something that stays in the ear whilst running. Thanks in advance.

Lots of really cheap stuff out there which can’t be much cop can it. I’m bumping this thread as I would also be interested in recent experience. I bought a pair of “‘remixd’ truly wireless sport” buds 2 years ago and they’ve been great (good sound, easy pairing, secure in-ear) but in temperatures of sub 5°C their battery life drops to 2.5 hours (not a problem most of the time). I much prefer them to “wired” bluetooth buds. They were about £80.

Battery lasts for hours and recharges through USB. If you are a member of a running club I think you get 20% discount as part of the EA membership too (I only discovered this after I bought them on Amazon)

I am in the market - does anyone have the wireless MPOW ones that are £18 on amazon? I've gone to both ends of the spectrum for wired ones previously and they all die due to sweat or rain pretty quickly so unsure about spending extra. Not too bothered about sound quality as I mainly listen to podcasts.
