Probably the Bose QC 35
Hey guys!
I am really enjoying my new Apple Watch so far, and especially running with it. I was wondering what Bluetooth headphones people use when running with the watch. I currently have a pair of Beoplay H7, but they are too big to run with.
Are people waiting on the new AirPods? Do people have any nice bluetooth headphone recommendations? I was considering the Beoplay H5, but nice sure since the reviews are a bit mixed.
I absolutely love the Plantronics Backbeat Fit headphones for running. To me, they are perfect. They have good quality and allow enough ambient noise that I can hear what is going on in the world along with my music. My 2nd choice for running, which I tried out but do not own, are the Powerbeats3. These are very good quality and stay in on runs without issue. For my selection, the Backbeat fit won because of its compact behind-the-head design and cost.
I really cannot give a very good qualitative answer. My best is "they are more than good enough." I use them in a pretty hostile environment. I usually only have the volume at about 50% to 60% so I can hear a little outside noise, and I only ever use them while running or biking. So, it is pretty difficult to hear nuances. I have no compliants at all about sound quality.How's the sound quality on the devices you guys mentioned?

Jaybird x2 are by far the best running headphones I've ever tried (and I've tried many), wired or wireless. They can be had for a very reasonable price from Amazon.
I had that with the original X's - ended up returning them and getting the PowerBeats2 (which I'm not very thrilled with - poor battery life).I also have the Jaybird x2s to use with my Apple Watch. Sound quality is great, but I have had them cut out while using them attached to my Apple Watch. Works fine on the iPhone, but the Apple Watch cuts out when there is too much of my body between the right ear and the watch on my left wrist. Have you noticed this as well? I have had the same issue on a S0 and a S2 watch.

A good solution might be to switch to using the over-the-ear clips - on the X's that changes the orientation, putting the controller on the left - same side as the watch.
They also have too much bass. I liked the sound better with the Jaybirds.I may have to try the switching to over the ear clips. Being on the same side should fix the issue.
Besides battery life, what didn't you like about PowerBeats2? I am planning on picking up the PowerBeats3 when they are released and from the looks of it, the main difference is the W1 and better battery life. Anything else you don't like about them?
Im using Bose SoundSport Wireless .... work well with my AW, iPhone and ipod depending on what I need

I use the Bose SoundSport headphones and love them.I like my wireless beats Powerbeats2.
I would love a wireless version of the Bose iE2 in-ear earphones even more, as they're the most comfy earphones I've ever worn and they stay in.
That's a decent deal.After reading through this thread, I searched for some JBx2's. Pricey!! Pretty much out of stock. Well, I was at my local WalMart today and looking for some Lego items in the clearance section. Guess what I came across!!! How awesome is it to find something you've been unable to find, and you were willing to pay a premium price for, on a clearance isle!!?? Well, $74.00 for the pair. BOUGHT!
The have the QC25s. Great headphones. I wish I had the 35s but having to use a cable isn't a big deal (I'm still using an iPhone 6Plus).I bit on these based on a number of friends recommendations.
