Wireless Earbuds for working out

A Silver

I am looking to get some wireless earbuds for when I use my indoor cycling trainer. I was considering the Sony WF-1000XM3 however they say nothing about water resistance which makes sense as they have a large hole on the side. The Bose SoundSport Free seem like a good option but I have little experience in this area so all suggestions are welcome. They need to be fully wireless as I can not bear a wire sticking to me when wroking out and they need to be sweat resistant as it gets warm when using the trainer.

I’ve had Bose sound sports and sound sport free. They were good headphones until both of them shit the bed right after their warranty was up, and now Bose won’t email me back

i have the JBL x Underarmor true wireless.

they are good but they have a problem with clogging up your ear and making the music sound muddy (since their shape closes off things like wind as if you put a cork in a wine  bottle) this in turn also leads to sweaty ears.

other than that they are good.

 

Anything i've written between the * and * is not meant to be taken seriously.

keep in mind that helping with problems is hard if you aren't specific and detailed.

i'm also not a professional, (yet) so make sure to personally verify important information as i could be wrong.

Less than a year each. My soundsports still kinda work, the battery just lasts about 1hr total. And my soundsport frees just don’t play music anymore
