Hubby treated me to these wireless Bluetooth in-ear headphones to keep my motivation going... worked brilliantly this morning in hot (22C) and humid (94%!) conditions - and the bridge view at the end was also worth it..😎

I'm thinking about asking for some of these for my birthday soon - are yours the type that hook over your ears? I'm not sure I would be confident of the ones that are just the buds - any advice would be gratefully excepted.

No earl oops just the ear buds plus comfort “fins” - rubber band essentially. I sweat profusely including ears and these stayed put the whole 50 minute run....

Sounds great - what make are they please - there's loads to look at on Amazon and the prices vary to widely.

JBudsAir - American make but available in U.K. - bought in Dixon’s/Curry’s at the airport so probably cheaper online

Love earbuds but as I'm often on foot in noisy urban surroundings I'm a fan of noise cancellation.

I recently destroyed a pair of wired earbuds (Bose QC20). I love the Bose sound and noise cancellation so I replaced them with some "as new" Bose QC30 bluetooth earbuds for £145 on Ebay. These have a collar which sits around my neck, which some reviewers did not like, but I love the sound, and the noise cancellation.

I'm excited by the Bluetooth Echo Buds announced by Amazon last week with Bose Noise Reduction, for £120. When these are established in the market I hope that will also encourage other makers to reduce their prices.
