Best wireless earphones for running
The wireless earphones that score highest on the Versus leaderboard with the criteria that matter for running.
Running earbuds need a secure fit that survives sweat and head bobble, an IP rating that covers rain, and enough battery for a half-marathon. The picks below score highest on the wireless-earphones leaderboard among models with at least an IP54 rating and supplied ear-fin or wingtip retention.
What to look for
- IPX4 or higher rating
- Secure fit (wingtip, ear hook, or compressed seal)
- Quick-charge for in-bag top-ups
- Transparency mode for safer outdoor runs
