Sports headphones

S

Many people like to listen to songs while exercising. First, they can enjoy music while exercising. On the other hand, the best music can really stimulate the motor and improve our endurance. But not all headphones are suitable for use during exercise. Why?

First, let’s first understand what sports headphones are.

Unlike fashion headphones or Hifi headphones, sports headphones have their own special status, in addition to the sound quality cannot be too bad, the shape cannot be too casual, but also need:

1 security

 Generally, sports headphones will not tend to be made into a full-ear type, but a “half-in-ear” type in which flat-headed earplugs are combined with the ear.

2 comfort

Due to the movement, the earphones are designed to be as lightweight as possible and ergonomically worn.

3 waterproof

During exercise, it is easy to sweat and sweat is easy to flow into the ear, which is not good for headphones. Therefore, sports headphones will achieve basic anti-sweat and waterproof measures.

4 firm

If it is not strong enough, the earphones are easy to fall off, which is very inconvenient and will affect the mood. Therefore, most sports headphones use a hanging ear design.
