You guys! It seems like eons since I’ve done a giveaway. Maybe because it is. My 8-yr. blogiversary came and went and nothing. But today I’ve got something way too good to keep to myself.
Us runners we love our tunes. The part I don’t love is untangling ridiculous wires, getting said wires caught as I run along and having to disconnect the wire every time I wanna take my phone out for a selfie… I mean picture.
When I was offered an opportunity to check out the BackBeat FIT Wireless Headphones from Plantronics, I was all over it.
What I love:
- The sound quality is spectacular. Totally on point. Quite possibly the best I ever heard from an earbud. Seriously.
- The part that goes around the back of your head is soft and flexible. The overall unit is so light you totally forget it’s there…except you hear music…so it has to be there…unless you’re hallucinating….which might be realistic too.
- They’re easy to set up and use. Turn them on and off by pressing the right earpiece, adjust the volume or skip songs by pressing the left one. Easy peasy. Bluetooth pairing was simple.
- A single charge lasts up to 8 hours.
- Water- and Sweatproof. They never slipped out of my ears, no matter how sweaty I got them or how much bouncing I did.
- Because the earbud goes IN the ear, the BackBeat FIT seals out cold wind, which has been a real issue around here lately, yet doesn’t entirely seal out ambient sound.
The Headphones come in a pouch that also stores the charger. Turn it inside out and the storage pouch converts to an armband that holds your phone, a key, a gel, etc. Love, love and love some more.
I didn’t love:
- My ears (aka petite flowers) felt the slightest bit of “fatigue” if I kept the earbuds in over an hour. Let the record show I have tiny ears. First world problem for sure.
- The volume/song skip button is on the sensitive side. I bumped it on a couple occasions and inadvertently changed the song.
WIN IT! One lucky winner will win the BackBeat FIT Wireless Headphones from Plantronics.
Have you gone wireless yet? Tell me one tune you’re loving right now.
Ive never tried wireless headphones but these look great! I also have small years- the standard ear buds never stay in well so I always use the kind that wrap around my ear.
I love Rockabye by Clean Bandit!! 😀
I will not name names 🙂 but I got a pair of wireless headphones from a brand. Something other bloggers really seemed to love – – and they just wouldn’t stay in my ears!!!
These were the ones everyone recommended. I wish I had gone with these for the marathon.
This fits in well with my post, are you a trendy runner? Because I still have wired headphones. Must.have.wireless.
I like the idea of wireless headphones my others always get tangled up on the elliptical which is where I mostly use them. Thanks for the review!
I need new buds badle!!! Hoping to win & try these out!
I love my wireless earphones! You are right, all those wires have to go! I like that pouch – that is super cool and a great way to store the charger 🙂
This looks pretty cool!! Bellabeat Leaf Fitness And Sleep Monitor – Silver! I recently tried Volume Maker EarBuds and I like them a lot. Scared I will lose one so this may be a better solution for me! 😉
These are my absolute favorite wireless headphones. I use them for all of my runs!
My favorite go-to song of all time is ‘Lose Yourself’ by Eminem
OOO, thanks for the giveaway! And I feel like I missed it that it was your blogiversary, so CONGRATS ON 8 YEARS!! That is awesome 🙂
I’m all over this one! I need an earbud that actually wraps around the ear like these and since I’m still wired …I figure it’s time to get with the program and go wireless! 🙂
I heard Rockstar this morning on PL while I was running and I love it! It is by a Bravo housewife bahhhaaa…but a great song. lol
8 years is a long time, that is great!
With a new baby and a dog to keep up with soon, it would be great not to be “tied down” with headphones 🙂
I was just thinking about bluetooth headphones this morning and wondering if I needed to catch up with technology at some point in my life. I usually run about 5 years behind. 🙂
i lost my wireless headphones last year and have been wanting a new pair!
I have an old set of these and LOVE them! I have been listening to Down on repeat 😉
I bought a pair of wireless headphones from Walgreens- they keep falling out- so I wear a head band to keep them in. But really into anything MeghanTrainor. And Amazon music is awesome too!
I would love bluetooth headphones for running, as I hate it when the cords get tangled!
The backbeat pro+ with the USB is pretty awesome ??
These look like they would come in handy for dopey
On the site I’m loving any and all headphones! If I’m at the gym, I can’t live without them.
Tune I’m always rocking too- Radioactive by Imagine Dragobs
wireless seem so nifty!! i have used yurbuds for eons…but this intrigues me!!!
Wireless headphones would be great. No getting caught up in wires!
I’ve never used a wireless headphone before. Maybe because I was too faithful with my IPhone earphones. I’d love to try it once. Sound great!
I wish I had those headphones! One tune I’m loving right now is Bruno Mars – Thats What I Like.
I’m crazy in love with headphone. There’s no limited to me to spending money to buy them. How about bass of this one? Is it good? And one more thing is price ^^ Thank you so much.
Since the Day by I Am They and I’d ❤ to be completely wireless!!!
I like that they are water and sweat proof. I like to listen to music while I kayak but I have been known to get a little wet sometimes.
I also like the OtterBox Defender Series Samsung Galaxy S6 Case.
I haven’t gone wireless yet but wouldn’t mind. I mostly listen to podcasts when I run or workout.
My son would love one of the Samsung Galaxy VR Headsets
This would be so helpful…mine always get knotted at the bottom of my gym bag!
I love the buds badle!!
I would like the Olixar OmniHolder Universal Case Compatible In-Car Mount
I would love the BACKBEAT PRO 2 SE
WIRELESS, ON-DEMAND ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLING HEADPHONES + MIC.
I wish I had these headphones is what I really wish I had from this site..
I like Bruno Mars 24karat
I need new headphones to get back to running!
I need a new pair of wireless headphones. Mine keep dying on me.
