I have a question for all the runners out there: I am looking for headphones that I would like to use for train travel and jogging. For the former I need good ANC, for the latter I don’t want it to boom in my ears when I’m running and I don’t want it to pick up wind noise. Unfortunately, my last in-ears were quite boomy when I was running. Activating ANC improved this somewhat, but it didn’t go away completely. It was always a bit unpleasant when running.

Now my question: What about the Fairbuds? Does anyone use them for jogging? How much impact sound reaches the ears? How does ANC work, and is there a functioning wind noise suppression?

Also, if anyone is using the Fairbuds XL for runnig: please share your experience. I would expect them to be too bulky for sports, but I never tried over-ears for running.

Fairbuds Noise cancelling is very bad in wind. I recommend getting a Sony or Bose instead for jogging. Fairbuds is not the best choice for you.

I recommend bone conduction for jogging. Irs safer.

Fairbuds for jogging is fine! No noise from impact - at least in my case. I don’t use ANC, though (and I have had both Bose and Sony with ANC - they are no good in wind/on a bike). However, I was worried about the touch panels, since I use a hat all winter, but that’s not a problem at all. And: Fp gave me two weeks to try it out for free :slight_smile: So maybe you can by them and try them?

Just adding that in EU you have two week for any product you buy online to return it without any reason. It is not fairphone only.
