One truth about me as a runner is that I need my jams. No jams, no run. I have meticulously curated playlists where the bass drops are strategically timed to gas me up when I lose steam. Aside from my sneakers, my earbuds are the most <\/em>important piece of running tech I own. And yet, my decade-long search for the perfect pair only just ended a few weeks ago. <\/p>\n

Behold, the beautiful, purplicious Beats Fit Pro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To understand why I\u2019m gaga for these buds, you need to know about the headphones that didn\u2019t make the cut. (Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll stick to the highlights and spare you a Dickensian-length novel recounting the dozens of earbuds that have failed me in my 10-year running journey.)<\/p>\n

Earbuds with superior sound \u2014 like the Bose SoundSport<\/a> \u2014 are often too large for my teeny-tiny earholes, and I\u2019m over chasing them when they eventually fall out. I tried one of Aftershokz\u2019s (now just Shokz) earlier bone conduction wraparound headphones. The thing is, I want to feel the \u201cwah-ow-wah-wah-ow\u201d of a sick bass drop vibrating in my skull. These, at best, delivered a sad \u201cwah\u201d that would embarrass Waluigi. I stanned my Jabra Elite Active 65t<\/a>, but they still occasionally fell out of my ear and lost their luster when the AirPods Pro came along and ruined me with their superior connectivity. The AirPods Pro<\/a> were convenient for daily life, but they\u2019re not hardy enough for my exercise regimen. (I got sweaty ears, okay?) I thought I found a good compromise in the Bose Tempo<\/a>. They were comfortable, gave me a good amount of situational awareness, and sounded great for open-ear audio sunglasses. Then they failed me during the New York City half marathon. I need my<\/em> jams, and these were drowned out by the subpar music blasted over the loudspeakers. I\u2019m firmly convinced this is a big reason why I ran out of steam at the 10th-mile marker and had to hobble the last 3.1 miles to the finish line. <\/p>\n

So, now that you understand the struggle, let me wax lyrical about why I love my Beats Fit Pro. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always hated winged tips because I find them uncomfortable. These weren\u2019t \u2014 that was the first shocker. The Beats Fit Pro fit securely in my ear and stayed put during an hour-long run on a sweltering summer day. I was a sweaty mess, but the buds never felt like they were about to slide out of my ear like my AirPods Pro and weren\u2019t gross when I took them out. After I got home, I did my best impression of a metalhead headbanging. The buds stayed put, and ever since that first run, they\u2019ve stayed put and dry<\/em> through multiple workouts. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s the way the tips fit into my ear ridge, but I\u2019ve never had this <\/em>good of a fit with earbuds before. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, these aren\u2019t the absolute best-sounding earbuds I\u2019ve ever used, but they\u2019re Very Good. Most importantly, I get my precious bass drops and my favorite K-pop singer sounds like a buttery smooth, mellifluous angel. The noise-canceling mode is also good enough that I can slip into the zone during workouts or while writing but not so silent that I can\u2019t hear a bus behind me. Hot take: I actually don\u2019t<\/em> like it when noise cancellation is too good, like on the AirPods Max<\/a>. It\u2019s disconcerting, and I feel safer when I have a degree of situational awareness. (The Beats Fit Pro do, however, block the yowls of my attention-seeking cat, so I\u2019m all set.) <\/p>\n
