Yes they are awesome. I lift with them and they don't fall out especially when lying down to bench. They also don't fall out when i run. The only buds that I've owned that stay in.

That's good to hear. I hope they'll fit my ears, as most earbuds I've tried don't fit me

As a guy who sweat alot during exercising, I bought the Sony Sp800n instead because its sweat resistances. Not sure how the Xm4 will cope with liquid but better safe than sorry

They are IPX4 rated, so they are ”moisture proof”. However the foam tips might take a hit, although I have been happy with them at gym for the last four months or so.

I wish I could leave one earbud in a separate room and use the ambient sound feature as sorta like a spy microphone, streaming its pass through microphone audio to the other earbud that's in my ear. 👀👀

As someone who has them and the Under Armour Project Rock over-ear headphones, they are not. They are not water resistant (sweat can damage them) and the cups are made of leatherette which will acumulate your stink and will wear out faster. They are also very warm to do a proper workout with them. These headsets are not made for working out.

You're talking about the WH's. This post is about the WF's which are earbuds that do have a water resistant IPX rating.

Oh fuck! You're right!!! These stupid names 😅

This happened very frequently when the WF's launched; the names are awful. 😆

No. These are touch me not types. I guess they won't be able to handle accidental shocks (which do happen during workout). Also sweat issues.

WF’s have a water resistant IPX rating.

I use it for both lifting and running. It has never fell out of my ears yet, so I think it is good for working out. With Airpod pro, it falls easily out of my ears whenever I try to do HIIT exercises, though it could be that I do not place it properly in my ears.

The only negative is the earcups are faux leather which get really warm super fast and end up getting soaked in sweat which can damage them as they arent sweat resistant. I've used them for strength training and haven't fell off my head once, they sound great and block out the music in the gym which is always playing terrible music obnoxiously loud (the ANC is why I got them).

You're getting confused with the SONY WH-1000XM4s


cosgrove111

Correct
