Best Headphones for Runners in 2019

Want running headphones that do it all? The Powerbeats Pro by Beats is for you. Not only are they genuinely wireless, but they offer up to 9 hours of battery life, physical buttons for media controls and Google Assistant, water resistance, and a robust, fun sound signature.

If you want about 90 percent of what the PowerBeats Pro bring to the table but for much, much less, the Jaybird Tarah earbuds are a perfect fit. Battery life is shorter at six hours, and the sound isn't quite as powerful, but the even more compact design is fantastic.

For buyers that want to stretch their dollars, it's hard to do much better than LETSCOM's headphones. You'll find deep bass, clear treble, and a seriously impressive battery that lasts up to eight hours on one charge. There's even an IPX7 water resistance rating and a one-year warranty.

Apple's AirPods are among the best when it comes to portability and convenience. It includes five hours of battery life per bud (or 10 hours combined), with up to four hours of talk time, and a convenient charging case that also now charges wirelessly. The charging case gives users up to an additional 24 hours of listening time.

The Mpow Flame are among the cheapest headphones on our list, but don't let the small price tag fool you. For just $20, Mpow offers headphones with IPX7 water resistance, 7-9 hours of battery, multiple colors, and a snug fit in the ear.

Phaiser struck a winning balance of offering a ton of great features such as Bluetooth 5.0 while keeping things affordable. They provide great sound for the price, the sweat-proof design is excellent for all sorts of runs, and you get a lifetime warranty for your purchase.

If you often find yourself running on a busy street, it might be worth getting AfterShokz bone-conducting headphones. By vibrating your cheekbones, you can listen to all of your music in high-quality glory while leaving your ears open to hear traffic and other potential hazards.

The Bose SoundSport Wireless are easily the best-sounding headphones on this list. The sound that comes out of these is exceptional for its class, and along with that, you'll also get up to six hours of battery and a sweat- and water-resistant design.

Another good truly-wireless pair of headphones is the Jabra Elite Active 65T. These come with a two-year warranty against sweat and dust, enhanced wireless tech that allows for fewer music dropouts, up to five hours of battery, and Jabra built Amazon Alexa right in.
