  Bose QC35 I know they are not buds, but pretty good.
  Also Airpods if you are a mac user.

  AirPods.. been cycling with them, and running, and they haven’t fallen out. Also go on meetings with them m

    Have the galaxy buds plus, and I've been using them on my Windows laptop, Android as well as iPhone. Never had an issue with them. For 200$, i'd recommend them. Never had Airpods, so cant give you a comparison.
    Audio quality is good enough for calls, and I've never had issues with the other person hearing me unless there's heavy breeze blowing.

    Edit: I use them during my runs as well, and they do not fall out. But its not waterproof and doesn't have ANC.

  Idk about Bluetooth earbuds but if you want some wired ones I could recommend TY HI-Z HP-650, they are 650 ohm but work well from smartphones

  I would recommend BLOX TM9, but I doubt they still sell these

  shozy Cygnus are a good choice as well

  if you don't mind using portable amplifiers you could look up venture electronics

  Not a fan of fully wireless earbuds, but I do love these Bluetooth earphones: Sony WI-XB400. Got them last year when they were on sale for around $70. Probably the best sounding head/earphones I’ve bought under $100, bass is very punchy but highs are also clear. Battery life is also amazing, I think their claimed 15hrs is pretty close to what I normally get. Call quality is also pretty good, and I like the fact you can bring the mic closer to the mouth when used in a noisy environment.

  PowerBeats Pro is currently 263.00 on eBay Plus. That's considered the best option in many reviews. I still think 200-300 is a bit too much for headphones, but you don't have this problem.

  For running, I think a hook model is much better than in-ear phones. I've seen two airpods (lost) on the floor in a park nearby, in the last four weeks, which likely means they often don't stay where they are supposed to stay when someone is running, and apparently people don't even notice. I'm considering a few hook options myself now that I've started doing exercises more often.

  I've been using the Samsung galaxy buds+ for a few months now and yesterday picked up a pair of jabra elite 75t.

  I prefer the sound of the jabra's, although saying that the galaxy buds+ have a nice clean sound to them.

  Comfort wise I have to hand it to the galaxy buds+. I can have them in for hours no worries. The Jabra's start hurting after 30mins.

  Talk wise, I think both do a good job, I've had no complaints while talking on either.

  The numerous YouTube videos comparing the 2 different sets seem to give the best phone sound to the Jabra's but not by much.

  I'll be selling my Jabra's and keeping the buds+.
