Top 10 Best Waterproof Bluetooth Headphones In 2021 Reviews

JLab rates the JBuds Air at IP55—that number means they offer modest protection from particles like dust, and from water and sweat. They cannot be submerged, however, and the charging case isn't waterproof at all.
The JLab Epic Bluetooth Earbuds are 100 percent splash-proof, sweat-proof and washable with an IPX4 rating.
Apple has two truly wireless earbud offerings. The entry-level model isn't water resistant. The AirPods Pro are water and sweat resistant, meaning they should survive heavy perspiration or a splash, though Apple tells users not to place them “under running water, such as a shower or faucet.”
The JLab Audio JBuds Air ANC Truly Wireless are budget-level noise cancelling in-ears. They have an excited, v-shaped sound profile to add thump and sparkle to your favorite tracks and while they don't have a companion app, they offer three EQ presets within their controls.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus aren't waterproof, but they are water-resistant. The Buds Plus have merited an IPX2 rating, meaning they can withstand most workouts as long as they're not submerged.
AirPods sound good, but in my opinion, JBuds Air sound better. You'll also enjoy custom EQ3 sound settings, giving you three different EQ profiles to choose from on the buds themselves. That's right, no app required and you can switch from JLab's Signature, Balanced, or Bass Boost modes with just a tap on your ear.
Tl;dr: The Jbuds are a must buy if you're looking for an affordable alternative to Apple Airpods while still maintaining good sound quality. They are comfortable/secure in the ear, and possess a decent charge time/battery life.
On the other hand, if you are looking for better comfort then I would suggest the Skullcandy Sesh would be a better choice as they fit in perfectly into the ears and are super comfortable. Jlab is also pretty comfortable but I personally didn't like the push mechanism on the earbuds.

Anker Soundcore Life P2Half the price of Anker's Soundcore Liberty Air 2 with similar features, the Soundcore Life P2 earbuds are a good value option.
