The result is like being followed by a floating speaker as you can hear the music but everything else as well, for maximum awareness of your surroundings.

BEST BUDGET WIRELESS EARBUDS FOR RUNNING FULL
The AfterShokz Aeropex Bluetooth bone-conduction headphones allow you to listen to music or podcasts with full awareness as they don’t block your ears at all. Step up: Beats Powerbeats – much better sound, fit and fancy Apple features for £129.99. Verdict: The fit won’t suit everyone but plenty of tips, top water-resistance and 18 hours’ battery are excellent for the money. For those who don’t want ear hooks, Anker’s Soundcore Spirit are similar with just wings to hold them in place. The sound won’t blow you away and they don’t block out noise very well, which has the added benefit of allowing for a little awareness while running, but they’re better than you’d expect for the money.
They support the latest Bluetooth 5 standards and last up to 18 hours between charges via a microUSB cable. They can connect to two devices simultaneously (such as your phone and running watch). They come with three sets of wings that secure the earbuds in your ear too, plus five sizes of tips that go into your ear canal. The over-ear hook design ensures they stay in place, while a wire runs between the buds with a remote for volume and playback on one side. This is ideal for surviving even the most arduous of workouts. Their IP68 water-resistance rating (1.5 metre water for 30 minutes) matches the best smartphones on the market and means they can be submerged in water, not just sweated on.

The Soundcore Spirit X are a great value set of Bluetooth exercise earbuds.
