According to our earbuds expert
With the waterproof Plantronics Backbeat Fit, you can listen to music wirelessly when doing sports. The Bluetooth battery lasts for up to 8 hours. Were you just going to exercise, but the battery is empty? You can recharge your earbuds for 1 hour of use in just 15 minutes. The ear hooks ensure that the earbuds will stay firmly in your ears during your run. The neckband is lightweight and flexible, so you'll barely feel it in your neck. With the buttons on the earbuds, you can control your music and take incoming calls. The reflective finish allows you to exercise safely in the dark when wearing earbuds.

Conclusion Recommended for running, skating, etc., but not for use outside of sports. I use it to run the marathon and for that I want the product to stay in my ears well (without feeling like it is moving or falling out at all) + a good battery is important. The sound is very disappointing. You have to decide for yourself whether you find sound important or comfortable to wear and for what purpose you want to use it (sports or also in the car/on the bike).
Sound quality The sound is disgusting. It can't be loud and you hear the environment very well (this can be nice when a bicycle bell goes off). I use the product for skating/running. With a good wind you even suffer from the wind. You can hear the ambient noise very well. If it's quiet, the sound is fine. In the gym you can hear the music from the gym/others. I find this so disturbing that I no longer use it there (and for that I use another headset that really fits in your ears, but which are less comfortable for running/skating).
wearing comfort It is perfect for skating/running. They stay perfectly in your ears. During fitness it is less comfortable as soon as you move your head more (from left to right) because then the rear edge sometimes wants to stick to the back of your neck. Outside of sports (if you have a jacket / sweater on) it is not good! The back of the product will catch on your jacket, sweater, etc. (and sometimes when you perspire). On the bike I regularly had that when looking to the left/right I pulled the product tight in my ear. The product weighs very little, so you don't realize you're wearing earphones while running. In warm weather you will not be bothered by it (it gets hot around the ears).
Battery The battery lasts for 8 hours and can be charged in 15 minutes. These are pluses. It's annoying when you find out that the battery is empty while you want to go for a run (and 15 minutes of fast charging is doable). 8 hours is also a perfect time, if you are going to run a marathon (and also want music before and after). It is nice that when you put it on you get information about how many hours the battery can last.
Ease of use The service is very pleasant. You can easily go from one song to another (or louder/softer). Putting on the headset just as quickly takes some practice. When I walk to the supermarket, I use another headset that you can put on and take off in a few seconds. I use this headset for running/skating.

Nice headset, mainly used by me for running! Standard earphones always fall out with me, not these! It stays put and also delivers good sound. Occasionally the headset seems to fall out of my ear, but it isn't. It just feels very loose.
