Wissonly Hi Runner
I noticed Wissonly bone conduction headphones when they were first crowdfunded online. And later, I saw that some otologists were recommending them on online forums, so I bought them. This Hi Runner is their flagship product whose overall functionality is also the most perfect. The headphone use the latest research from the Wissonly lab. It increases the vibrating area of the vibrator by 35% and optimizes the direction of sound transmission to make the sound more concentrated, resulting in a wider range and more spatial of the music. The brand claims that its sound quality is HI-FI level, and I actually tested it myself. I thought that the sound quality was very close to HI-FI level, but it did not reach this level. Of course, the current sound quality is satisfactory enough. Wissonly Hi Runner bone conduction headphones are also equipped with a new Bluetooth 5.0 chip that has stronger anti-interference ability, that can easily cope with various complex outdoor scenes, and ensures the good mood during exercise is not disturbed by disconnection. At the same time, the stable connection also brings low latency performance, and there is no problem in listening to songs, following dramas, and playing games. What’s more, they have 32G of built-in memory that can store 5,000 songs. This helps you to enjoy music when you are exercising outdoors without your phone. In terms of comfort, the Wissonly Hi Runner performs well, it is very light, only less than 30g, and it does not feel any weight to wear. The body is made of titanium alloy which makes it have a good fit, and you don’t need to worry about their falling off during sports. The waterproof of the Wissonly Hi Runner deserves special mention, and it is IPX8 grade. It means that you can carry it underwater for up to 20 meters and still use it normally, which is crazy!
OPPO Enco X2
After OPPO’s previous earbuds were close to perfection, we were excited to try their latest model. The OPPO Enco X2’s have incredibly punchy sound and bass using Hi-Res audio which you can customise in-app for most smartphones. The controls are smart with a swiping motion for volume along with pinching to change tracks, meaning you can adjust and remove the earbuds without any accidental control hits. Unfortunately, there were a couple of minor problems in comparison to the previous model, including disconnection with the right earbud straight from the case, and Transparency Mode wasn’t the clearest. Saying all that, the Active Noise Cancellation is one of the best we’ve tested and cuts out any stubborn noise such as traffic and crowds; they will certainly stay put on a run too. Plus the case is a gorgeous smooth white pebble which you’ll find hard to put down.
Nothing ear (1) Wireless Earbuds
With an Instagram following of over 600k and being a relatively new company, and with wireless earbuds being the only product on the menu, you know this is a company to watch. There’s no denying that these are pretty much an affordable version of the AirPods Pro, but we aren’t complaining. To start with, they fit in the ear superbly well, are lightweight and don’t move on a run. The sound is decent and can be tweaked i- app (unlike the AirPods). A quick slide on the stem controls the volume (we’ve only seen this on the OPPO Enco X earbuds in this round-up). The quality of noise cancellation is top-end, even if there is an almost unnoticeable bit of brown noise there. The design is something unique that we haven’t seen before and the clear case is especially gorgeous. To top it all off, these earbuds are Carbon Neutral. You really cannot go wrong with this purchase.
Redmi Buds 3 Pro
Trying to find an affordable set of wireless earbuds with amazing sound and a solid build is a little hard to find in such a crowded market. So, when we tested these Redmi Buds 3 Pro, after looking at the price point, we think these are a steal. A glassy pearlescent gem sits on the end of the buds for a unique finish, but they don’t stick out and are sure to stay in on a run. There’s no single tap, meaning there are no accidental track pauses if you adjust the fit. There was no wind feedback on our run which was a big plus and the noise cancellation was very reasonable for what you’re paying.
X by Kygo Xellence True Wireless Earbuds
These earbuds are by far the coolest-looking earbuds around and have an incredible sound to kick. They feature an illuminated X on either side so you’ll be seen on your workout and they feature ‘Digital hybrid Noise-Cancellation’ which is similar to Active Noise Cancellation, but not quite matching that level of quality and noise reduction. But the sound quality is exceptional and is made just that bit better thanks to a hearing test completed in the X by Kygo app. Fit isn’t great and they do require a bit of adjusting to get them in along with the odd push during a HIIT workout just to make sure they don’t fall out. But the quality of this product at this price point is one to consider.
