Description

The XT80 keeps the earbud anchored through runs, lifts and sweaty intervals, so you finish the session without stopping to re-seat anything. The open-ear design keeps the street and the room audible, and the LED case shows the charge for each earbud before you leave.

Secure, ergonomic over-ear wireless earphones built for sports with long battery life

Solves
  • earbuds falling out during workouts
  • discomfort from in-ear buds
  • need to stay aware of surroundings
  • not knowing battery level

Earbuds that stay locked in so you can push harder

The XT80 wraps over the ear with glossy black hooks, so the earbud holds through stride changes, sweat and overhead lifts. Finish the set without stopping to re-seat anything, then glance at the LED case to see the battery.

Built to stay put through every rep

Hooks that hold on

The ergonomic hook sits over the ear and takes the weight of the earbud off the ear canal. That is why it stays anchored through running strides and overhead lifts. The hook adjusts, so you can set the angle once and reuse it. For a closer look at the layout, see the range.

Controls you can feel

Each earbud has its own press controls. Play and pause, track skip, volume and Siri all live on the earbud, so you never pull it out to change a track. Calls are answered with a single press on either side.

Know your battery

The charging case has an LED battery display that shows the level for each earbud. Check it before you leave the house, so a short gym session never turns into a dead earbud halfway through.

Stop fishing for the earbud

The earbud that fell out

Halfway through the run, the right earbud starts to slide. You slow down, pull it back in, and lose the rhythm you had. It happens again at the next hill, and by then the session is more about the earbud than the work.

A fit that stays

The XT80 hooks sit over the top of the ear rather than inside it, so the earbud is anchored where movement pulls on it least. The hook is adjustable, and you can run a short test before a longer session to confirm the fit. Pair it with a setup if you already like that style.

Finish the set

Set the hooks, pick music or game mode with four presses, and start the set. The open-ear design keeps the room audible, so you hear the instructor, the traffic or the person behind you. When the session ends, the LED case shows how much charge is left for the next one.

What to expect as you train

Reviews

Questions and answers

Will the ear hooks feel heavy or sore on long sessions?
w
Wanelo · seller

The hooks take the weight of the earbud off the ear canal, so most of the load sits over the ear. Some buyers need a few minutes to settle the hook angle. Once it sits right, the fit holds through long runs without pressure building up.

Do they stay secure during running and gym workouts?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes, that is the main reason for the hook. The earbud is anchored over the ear, which keeps it in place through stride changes, sweat and overhead work. Run a short test before a long session to confirm the fit on your ear.

How do I check the battery level?
w
Wanelo · seller

The charging case has an LED battery display that shows the level for each earbud separately. Glance at it before you leave, so you know how much charge you have for the session.

Can I use one earbud on its own for calls or awareness?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. The XT80 supports binaural or single-earbud mode. Use one earbud on a bike or a busy street to keep one ear open for traffic, or on a call while you walk.

How do I switch between game and music mode?
w
Wanelo · seller

Press either earbud four times to move between the two modes. Practice it standing still so you can do it without looking.

What comes in the box, and is it worth the money?
w
Wanelo · seller

You get the earbud pair, the charging case and interchangeable ear tips in one kit. Compared with buying a second pair of in-ear sport buds that keep falling out, one secure pair that stays put is the cheaper route over time.
