Best True Wireless Sports Earbuds with Ear Hooks 2024

Passos illy sport 1: The Eli Sport 1 can be had for around $80. While they may not sound quite as good as some of the premium open-ear headphones out there – there can be a touch of distortion at higher volume levels with bass-heavy tracks – they sound just right for their modest price and I found them comfortable to wear. It looks more premium than its price indicates. It has 16.2mm drivers, is IPX4 splash-resistant and is rated for up to 7.5 hours of battery life at moderate volume levels.

Samsung Galaxy Buds FE: Samsung’s Galaxy Buds FE 2023 have a list price of around $100 and feature a single driver (Samsung didn’t say how big), three microphones on each earbud, and active noise cancellation. They ship in a case that’s the same size and shape as you currently get with all of Samsung’s latest Galaxy Buds, including the Galaxy Buds 2 and Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. They closely resemble an updated version of Samsung’s discontinued Galaxy Buds Plus earbuds, which also came with a set of interchangeable fins that helped create a secure and comfortable fit. Like those headphones, the Galaxy Buds FE are sweat-resistant with an IPX2 water resistance rating that protects against splashes.

Bose Frames (Tempo) (Out of stock): Bose Frames are one of those products that you have to try to fully appreciate – or reject. The concept is that you get a decent pair of sunglasses with a pair of headphones that don’t actually go into your ears. Instead, small speakers built into each arm direct the sound beam to your ears. This design can be attractive to people who don’t like wearing headphones in or over their ears, and also provides a degree of security for runners and bikers who want their ears open to the world.

Jabra Elite 8 Active: Equipped with six microphones instead of four, slightly improved adaptive noise cancellation and wind reduction technology along with a higher durability rating, the Elite 8 Active feels like a modestly upgraded version of the Elite 7 Pro and Elite 7 Active. Jabra describes them as the “world’s toughest earbuds,” and based on our testing (they survived several drops without a scratch), that may very well be true.

Soundpeats Air3 Deluxe HS: What makes the Soundpeats Air3 Deluxe HS special is that they sound surprisingly good for open-ear headphones — they’re very close to what you get from the Apple AirPods 3 for audio. Moreover, it supports Sony’s LDAC audio codec for devices that provide it. Not many cheap open-ear headphones have good sound, but these Soundpeats have good response and clarity. It’s also good for making calls and has a low-latency gaming mode. Battery life is rated at 5 hours at moderate volume levels, and it is IPX4 splash-resistant.
