@safari I have the Suunto Wing, while I like it, as an iPhone user the AirPods Pro 3 are so much better there is no comparison. I don’t use headphones often but when I do I’ll use the Apple ones.

@Brad_Olwin Running with the AirPods is terrible for me. The plugs entering the ear cannals create some pressure with each step and it is so annoying. For sports I have the wing the openrun 2 and the opendots (great but terrible if you sweat lot)

I’ve got the beats fit pro with the same chipset as “some” airpod models and they work absolutely flawless in combination with an iphone.
they are insanely comfortable and I wore them during my entire 11h self supported midsummer night’s run last year.
they didn’t even make the slightest impression of moving or even falling out -
@freeheeler I am tempted to get the spark since my open run were used so much that I don’t get more than 2-3h bat anymore. During the weekend I might do some research.
Does somebody know if they are touch or ‘tap’ activated?
I don’t like touch for sport earphones especially when raining or sweating they tend to press themselves and a couple of times I threw them out due to the immediate loudness increase (opendots I look at you)

@EzioAuditore Are these the AirPods Pro 3? The new silicone + foam and multiple sizes for fitted ear tips are the only ones that work for me. They are quite comfortable. Any other AirPods fall out of my ears. @freeheeler I almost went that direction until the Pro 3 were released. The HR detection in the AirPods Pro 3 is as good as the Suunto Belt!

@safari I current wear Bose Ultra Open earbuds, which design I prefer to the design of the Spark. https://www.bose.com/p/earbuds/bose-ultra-open-earbuds/ULT-HEADPHONEOPN.html
For the Spark to win me over, it would need to have music storage on it, as I run with my phone at home.
Currently my Bose streams from music on my Apple Watch as the Suunto Race S doesn’t have local storage (and the Suunto Run didn’t exist when I decided to try Suunto).
Or Suunto could add local music storage to the Race S, bit then I think I’d stick with Bose. It’s “earring style” I like better than over the ear.

@raven These types of headphones aren’t very useful for people like me who wear glasses. I also use Jabra Elite 7 Pro.
But the problem is that Jabra has withdrawn from this type of headphone market.
So if it breaks, it’s impossible for me to find a replacement.
I don’t find these bone conduction headphones very useful.history:
