    Hey guys I'm looking for a pair of bluetooth headphones to work out in. Im tired of buying cheap ones and having them crap out on me and not staying in my ear very well. I was wondering if anyone has a certain one they use now or could recommend any. Price range id say up to $150 I want them to stay put while running and lifting along with last awhile if I'm dropping that money on a pair. So if you could help me out that would be great thanks.

    I've been using the Sony SBH20B headphones and they work great. My only issue was that it didn't survive a trip through our washer :busted:

    I ordered a second one to replace it. I use it when working around the resort (mowing, chainsaw, etc.) so I can hear my phone if someone calls, plus I can jam out :tu:

    They're cheaper than your budget, but it's tiny and I think It'd be great for what you're looking for.

    ... oh, the smallest buds work great for me. They stay in place really well. I started with the medium ones, but switched to see if they would stay better and they did.

    Thanks Fitz I'll check them out. Obviously beats are nice but I've seen a lot of reviews saying for the money they aren't worth it. I was looking at the powerbeats2 wireless. I've also came across a few brands like Jaybird and Jbl that seem to have some nice options too. So I'll keep looking. Hopefully some more guys can chime in as well.

    Ive seen a lot of people with the LG headphones too. I don't think I would like bulkiness though when working out. Thinking of going with something similar to the Beats where the wire goes behind your head/neck and the buds going over your ears. I know a lot of them do that just want it to be light weight and functional

    Yes. I use them when lifting and running. They stay in place really well and are comfortable. I've had mine for nearly a year now and have been pleased with them. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another pair.
