My Beats X tend to slip out while running which is really annoying. I thought they would stay better in the ear. Does anyone exercise with the Apple AirPods? In particular running.

Mine stay really good but I had to try around the sizes. My best-fit-setup is to have two different sizes of eartips on them.

I have two differently sized and shaped ears, so mine by themselves don't stay in. I bought Spigen Earhooks and while the AirPods don't sit in my ear canal as far, they also don't shift and feel as though they'll never fall out now:

This thread reminds me of when I visit dpreview forums and forget that 75% of the posters are senior citizens.

I like the carrying case for the pill and I might choose this colorway for beatsx if the price was the same as the other options (sale prices not these inflated msrp prices.) The camo is tacky on the beatsx case, it looks a little better on the pill and I like how they've put it on the front and rear with the middle staying black.

Undefeated isn't a brand I'm particularly fond of. They push at least as many trash designs as they do good ones but I still like the option. We have lots of options to personalize our phones and laptops with cases, wallpapers, stickers and so on. I'm not sure I'd want to see this sort of thing on an Apple branded product but with beats I'm fine with it.

Power Beats 3 is best for running as they hang over-ear and have good sound. I grabbed a pair from best buy as they had on sale for $129 keep an eye or use there app for notification as they still have a lot sales going on.

I use Beats X for lounging & walking have the gray pair, And now want this camo color.. sighs ....

Yeah not my color either but as I said I already have the black ones. Just problems with keeping them in the ears while running. I will try different sizes to see if that helps.

Yes. I first had BeatsX and used them while running. They did slip a lot. Then got the Airpods and have been running with them for the last 6 months. I'm surprised I've never had an issue of slipping with the Airpods.

With AirPods, The key is the fit. If they/Earpods fit you well, then you should do good with running. Hope this helps!

Yes, all the time, including running, they've NEVER fallen out. I've read that some people can have an oddly shaped ear that can cause a problem, but for most people it's not an issue. (you can always return them within 14 days but your probably won't). They are very light and stay in perfectly. Its hard to imagine them falling out even if I were being violently shaken upside down.
