Jaybird has long been known for making great earbuds that are especially well suited for workouts. The Tarah Pro is no exception—these robust and comfortable buds tick pretty much every box on the perfect-for-workouts checklist.
When it comes to picking a solid set of wireless workout earbuds, there are three primary things that matter: fit/comfort, build quality, and lastly, sound quality. As such those will be the things that we focus on in this review.
Fit and Comfort: Once You Find “Your” Fit, They’re Amazing
My biggest complaint about most earbuds—especially ones designed for use while working out—is that they’re just not comfortable. Or the fit sucks. Or they won’t stay in my ears. Seriously, I’ve been using the same Bluetooth earbuds for workouts for the last five years; I destroyed one set with sweat so I bought a second one. Because those were the best ones I’d ever had when it comes to fit and comfort.
Fit is the most crucial aspect of any set of workout earbuds. They can sound amazing, but if they hurt, won’t stay in, or are generally just uncomfortable I’m not going to wear them. Period. When I’m working out, I want to focus on… working out and not on my earbuds.
When I first tried on the Tarah Pro, I was less than enthusiastic about the fit. Then I tried working out with them—I’m a cyclist, so I’ve been testing these with indoor training (no earbuds on the road for safety reasons!) where I sweat a tremendous amount—and I was even less than impressed. They kept slipping, wouldn’t stay in, and were honestly just annoying.
I tried different tips (they come with three different sets of varying sizes), but that didn’t help either. So I reached out to Jaybird and asked what I was doing wrong, and they sent back the Tarah Pro fit guide. Let me tell you guys something: this is a game changer.
After looking at the fit guide, I realized there are two ways of wearing the Tarah Pros: over-the-ear and under-the-ear. The whole time I had been trying to get them to work with the “under” method I wished they were over-the-ear. When I found out you can do either/or, my mind was blown.
