AirPods stay securely in your ears—yes, even on the treadmill.
When Apple announced its totally wireless AirPods (go.macworld.com/arpdfaq), the only question on my mind was: Will those things survive a run? It seemed impossible. I can barely get a pair of high-end Bluetooth buds with foam or silicone tips to fit comfortably in my ears and stay there while I work out, let alone a pair of hard plastic earphones. And the EarPods Apple includes right out of the iPhone box fall out of my ears if a breeze wafts near them just so.
None of the early AirPods reviews addressed their fitness potential, so I snagged a pair in-store recently and put them to the test.
The good news: These things don’t budge. I ran on a treadmill at 6mph to see if the impact would dislodge them, but to no avail. I hit the elliptical to keep the sweat momentum going. Gross, I know, but I had to see if the AirPods (go.macworld.com/arpdrev) would slip out. Nope.
