Powerbeats 4 - 2020

While they're definitely a good upgrade over the Powerbeats 3 and a solid wireless sports headphone, the problem for me anyway is that once you go truly wireless it's hard to go back, and there are plenty of excellent true wireless earbuds in this price range. Those aforementioned Galaxy Buds Plus, for example. Heck, you can even pick up a Geek Squad-recertified Powerbeats Pro from Best Buy for $140. And don't forget that the street price of the standard AirPods is basically $140.

The Powerbeats are a solid option for those looking for fitness-focused earbuds that won’t fall out mid-run. The over-ear hooks, though stiff and sometimes awkward to put on, provide superior security, and the fact that there’s no weighty neckband means you won’t get a buildup of sweat during intense workouts either. Combine that with great quality audio, punchy bass and an affordable price tag and you've got a great pair of wireless neckbuds.
