I would say as long as you are not drenching the buds in a ton of sweat and letting water get into the mic and speaker ports, they are viable for fitness. If you're a normal person, it should be fine for working out, unless you're going ham on the machines at gym for multiple hours straight and not cleaning your sweat off. They should fit into ears securely.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I was curious about this too. So, I decided to take a risk yesterday and used them on a 5 mile run. 96 degrees with a heat index of 113 and the last mile was heavy rain, drenched in sweat and they're still working like a charm! I would recommend to wipe them off immediately and set them out to dry before putting them back in the case though, just to make sure no water and salt get in the case or stay on the metal contacts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.These are more for casual listening than for working out. Try out the jaybird xt run for working out or beats pro.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They're not rated as sweat- or water-resistant, so if you're doing intense workouts or just a bit moister than most (like me...), probably not the best use case. Probably not recommended for working out, to be on the safe side. If this cycle resembles their last release cycle, they'll probably be releasing an athletic version that is sweat proof and water resistant, like the WF-SP700. So might be worth waiting a couple months to see.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Look for the IPX rating for this product. On a scale of 0 - 10, an IPX rating reasonably assures the durability and "sweat resistance" of a product such as this. The higher the rating, the better the resistance. Some of them can even be immersed in water for brief periods (although I wouldn't test that, and besides...it's going to be a lot harder to charge them.)
