If you're looking for earbuds that won’t fall out mid-workout, the Anker Soundcore Sport X10, now priced at $49.99 (down from $79.99), might be worth a look. According to price-trackers, this is the lowest price these earbuds have ever hit, and they come highly rated—4.0 out of 5 and an “excellent” verdict from PCMag. Available in black or oat white, these earbuds have rotatable ear hooks (that twist 210 degrees) and come with extra ear tips in various sizes so you can adjust them for a personalized fit. That said, if you wear glasses, the ear hooks might interfere with your glasses’ arms and their placement.
The sound profile of the Soundcore Sport X10 leans bass-forward, courtesy of its 10mm dynamic drivers and Anker’s BassUp technology, but it’s still balanced enough for casual listening. Pair that with Bluetooth 5.2 support for wireless connectivity, a surprisingly good noise-cancellation performance (for the price), and an IPX7 rating, and you’ve got a solid pair of audio gear that's ready for even the most intense workouts. (A heads up, though, that the charging case doesn’t share this durability rating.)
The on-ear controls of these earbuds are located on the top of each earbud, preventing the discomfort of accidentally pushing them further into your ears while making adjustments. These controls are customizable via the app, where you can also toggle between ANC (active noise-cancellation), transparency, and off modes, fine-tune the sound with an eight-band EQ, and explore extras like breath-training exercises. Battery life is decent, with Anker estimating eight hours per charge and an additional 24 hours from the case. Your mileage may vary depending on listening volume and how often you use ANC. If you’re considering alternatives, the Jabra Elite 3 at $42.30 is another solid option.
