Some people are able to go for an hour long run or spend that long at the gym without headphones. They’re just out there raw dogging their fitness regiment, listening to nothing but the sound of their HOKAs hitting the pavement or treadmill in between their wheezing breaths. I am not as strong as they are. If you’re more like me than you are them, you need a solid pair of earbuds to take with you while training. You can get yourself a great pair in the Soundcore C50i open ear earbuds for 43% off no less. These headphones built from the ground up for running is normally sold for $70, but has now come down to just $40 for a limited time.
So what really makes these earbuds ideal for running over any other standard pair of headphones comes down to two different aspects—fit and design. That sounds overlapping, but we’ll get to the difference.
Fit for Running
The Soundcore C50i utilize a clip-on structure which sits comfortable around your ear. When running with a standard set of earbuds, I’m always paranoid one or both will slip out, then bounce around on the ground, and roll right into a sewer great. I have enough anxiety when I’m running, I don’t need to be anxious about my audio equipment too.
With the clip-on setup, the Soundcore earbuds will stay securely in place so you don’t need to worry. The Memory titanium adapts to any and all ear shapes so it will still feel comfortable after hours of wear in a row. They’re ultra-light and made with running in mind.
Designed for Running
These Soundcore earbuds have an open-ear design. What this means is that unlike other earbuds on the market, they sit over your ear and do not block your ear canal. This way it is adding to the sound you hear from your surroundings, not replacing it. Sure, if you’re on a plane, you might want to cancel out as much noise as possible to just focus on solely your music, podcast, or audiobook.
Well, when running, you need the opposite. It would be dangerous as heck going out for a run on a public street without being able to hear oncoming traffic. The Soundcore C50i earbuds let you stay aware of your surroundings while both feeling more comfortable than in-ear counterparts and with better sound quality than with bone conduction options.
Call come through crystal clear, even while on a run. The earbuds can filter out background noises for the caller on the other end so they hear you and only you.
The battery is reliable, able to last for eight hours on a single charge. They’ll last up to 28 hours when you consider the charging case. They’re IP55 waterproof rated, so you can sweat in them or take them out in the pouring rain, no problem.
