I'm not sure whether to get these or the Beats ones. I am looking for comfort, and the best sound quality. Can anyone help? I want to also make sure they won't fall out of my ears when I run

I had the same question before buying the Jaybird X2 earphones. Personally, the jaybird x2 was not as comfortable as I thought it would be (especially after reading all the hype about it). No matter what combination of the ear tips and wings I used, they would still fall out of my ears when I shooked my head or had the cords barely tugged on. Maybe my ear canals are too narrow. I compared the sound quality to my apple earphones and it wasn't that much better. It sounded better but not enough to be excited about. The bluetooth signal is not always good. I had my phone on my bed and when I walked out of my room it started to sound staticky after a few steps pass the door; so about 15-20 ft it starts to lose signal. This is my first set of wireless earbuds and I am not impressed by it. Charging it becomes a hassle too. Good thing is that you can always try it out and return it if you don't like it.

I have these and my husband has the Beats. Comfort wise these are better in my opinion. I don't like anything to wrap around my ear. If you want extra bass Beats has more powerful bass. Skullcandy bass os just perfect for me bc I don't need to hear ringing in my ears when I remove them.

The jaybirds are very good quality, and they don't fall off when you run.

Headphones wear well and should not fall out. As for sound quality there are better and cheaper ones out there. Check Samsung. Bose are nice but more money

I just purchased these a few weeks ago as I needed earbuds that would not fall out when I was running. These do not, they have not fallen out once since purchased and I run/exercise daily. To me they are comfortable and I get good sound quality.

They stay on great when you run or even sprinting.

Beats have slightly better sound quality, but it is barely noticeable, and definitely not enough to justify the extra $100+, in my opinion. As far as comfort, I had no issues. They come with several extra ear buds in different sizes, so no worries there.
I also found the connection with the Jams to be better than that of the Beats, plus I like the magnet to keep them together when not in use.

I have had both, the beats fit much better and are more comfortable.

I have tried both and like the Beats better. The JayBirds will not stay in my ears. The Beats have the best sound quality.

This has better sound quality than powerbeats / powerbeats2 and definitely more comfortable but if u wana go wireless then powerbeats 2 is the better choice.
