Plantronics Backbeat FIT 300 - earphones with mic is rated4.67 out of5 by9.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good sound, simple design, didn't lastAfter bad luck with several other wireless earbuds, I decided to go with the BackBeat FIT 300s, mainly for the battery life.I was surprised by the audio quality - they actually do sound pretty good for the price. The FIT 300s find a good balance between audio quality, battery life, and price.I was also dubious about the rubber loops that fit in your ear, but sure enough, these were comfortable too - and did a good job of keeping the buds in ear during workouts.Then finally, I was disappointed once they died on me. I used these earbuds for maybe a little under 3 months, making sure to keep them dry and only charging them when necessary. I turned them on one day, and one ear just decided not to work. No other symptoms, no clear reason why - one ear just decided to give up.I would love to recommend these earbuds, but given my experience, I just can't.It's a shame they didn't last, because they're otherwise pretty good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Go-to workout headphonesGreat gym/running/workout headphones. Comfortable enough for a two hour session and great sound and call quality as with all Plantronics products. I have other BT earbuds with a collar but it constantly falls of my shoulders when doing kettlebell swings or plyo or any kind of dynamic movement. They don't even stay on when running. These are basically glued on, you can do as intense a circuit training workout as you want and these won't slip off. Great for calling parents while walking around the neighborhood, or one ear in as a handsfree option while driving. Work great with OK Google voice assistant as well, I've had issues with other headsets. I've owned every major brand of BT earbuds and several of the over ear variety and these are the best for exercise I've used, and the ear lock things are WAAAAY more comfortable than the wild flange fin tail things you find on a certain other popular option (that are now sitting uncharged and unused in my gym bag).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from one of manyi found the comfort to be very average and the battery life lasting 5 hours opposed to the 6 advertised but that would depend on a few things while using them, for the negatives ill say the cable was a bit short and stiff and if my neck was any thicker id have been in trouble with these and the fabric tends to scrape against facial hair which was annoying.but not as annoying as the robotic female voice in them that informs you of basic things like connecting and power level.on the positive side they have a pleasing sound with prominent bass will be great for any type of music that needs some thumpthey did survive sweat and even a "splash test" built quite wellthe colour accent is only one the right side from control box to tip.the control box is basic, hard to navigate with out looking and they charge with the included mice usb cablethey also come with proprietary ear tips in 3 sizes, shirt clip and a little pouch.all in all they do what they're meant to with a few minor grievances.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Finally, Earbuds That Don't Fall OutFor me, the feature I appreciate the most on this earbud product is the fact that they actually stay in your ear pretty well. I have pretty big ears which always caused other earbud products to fall out and have me constantly pressing them in my ear so I can hear the music better. These earbuds, however, are [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing soundThe BackBeat FIT 300 was easy to setup on my Android phone. The sound was crystal clear. I love the clip which holds it on your shirt when working out. And the battery lasts forever. The earbuds are comfortable and do an excellent job of blocking out sound. It comes with 3 different size earbuds. The only knock I have is that people report hearing some background noises while talking to them. For example, I was unloading my dishwasher. My son tried it with his Apple phone. He likes it so much, that he takes every chance he gets when he goes to work out. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good sound & functionality, poor constructionTo this point, the sound quality is still great. When I bought it, everything functioned, and wore absolutely perfectly. I bought it in January, and the first part to break was the clip, that holds it to the back of your shirt. That broke within a month. Wire, and braiding, between the buttons, and the left earbud start knotting up within three months. the rubber buttons on the microphone, and electronics part started falling off about a month ago, and fell off completely last week. All that said, it still functions will, I just can't drive it around my neck without it falling off, and I have to have something pointy to press the buttons. If Plantronics could fix all of these issues, they would have a great year but set.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the StyleThis is a great product, works well and easy to wear. We have bought multiple BackBeats for our office! I would like to be able to access clear instructions on the functions and use. I don't see them on this website. Thank you for an excellent design!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Overall I loved these earphonesI got the BackBeat FIT 300 Series a week ago, and I am really happy with them. When i wore them I found they were really comfortable in my ear, I think that the loop had a good part in this. They made the earphones stay in tight and while doing exercise they never fell out.When I first was listening to music, I thought the audio sounded a little flat, however, quickly realised that I had to have the ear buds further in my ear. Once I came to that realisation, I was surprised at how incredible the quality became.I found that because they were bluetooth earphones, I didn't get them tangled and didn't have to worry about my phone being close to me while going for walks. The clip that clips on top the back of your top is really convenient. The battery life was decent, it lasted for around 5-6 hours in total. I absolutely loved the features on the earphones, eg; phone calls, redial, skip songs, power on/off ect.I only thought that the button area could have been a little thinner, I just found that one side was heavier than the other. All in all, I really like this product. I don't think they are just for people that want to listen to music while being active. These are great for everyday earphones!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Surprisingly GoodI've been using the BackBeat FIT 305 on and off for around a week now and I can confidently say I will be using them daily from now on, I'll keep this short and sweet for those that don't like walls of text.Pros:1. They are very comfortable, I've struggled to find earbuds that are both comfortable and will stay in for long periods of time, with the 3 different silicone earbud covers this wasn't an issue.2. Battery Life is quite good, Plantronics state 6 hours of use from full charge and I got anywhere between 5-7 hours out of these depending on volume and music type.3. Connectivity, These are as simple as pairing any other Bluetooth device to your phone, the quick start guide is easy to read and tells you everything you need to know.4. Sound Quality, My usual playlist has a variety of music ranging from Soft Rock to Rap to Pop and even at max volume there was zero distortion and everything remained clear and enjoyable.Now for the Cons:1. The included charging cable (USB to Micro USB) is a little short for me coming in at just over 30cm and this can be an issue for some people.2. The little voice that tells you when you have changed volume, For the first day this was nice considering you can't see what controls you have your hands on but afterwards it became a little annoying.Those are my only two real complaints here and that with me looking for things to criticize, this is a great set of earbuds not just for those that lead an active lifestyle but also those that don't want the hassle of having a cord.
