Soul S-Fit Earbuds - A Runner's Review

The Soul S Fit true wireless earbuds are IP67 waterproof, have epically long battery life, have wings to ensure an unshakeable fit, and feature a transparency mode that is supposed to help runners stay aware of their surroundings. But at $80, can it deliver on all these promises? And how will they sound?
UPDATE: the S-FIT will be 25% off on SoulNation.com and 30% off on Amazon for Black Friday/Cyber Monday. At that price, these earbuds just became a lot more interesting!
Disclosures: this is a set of earbuds that was sent to me for purpose of review. However, no one is paying me to make this video or to use these earbuds. No one will get a chance to preview my footage or thoughts before the video goes up on youtube.

Kofuzi - always honest in all his reviews.

[@xyzv8640]

Have been watching your videos for some time now (~3 months?!). 99% running shoes, 1% Nike Oregon. Today, and I mean *today* I started researching earbuds since I have only used cable-bounds ones before and I need a good x-mas-present (for myself 😎).. And now you upload this... 😋

[@Runningtean7773]

Nice option for running

[@RileyRunTheCity]

Yoo What's Going On??? The long hair is looking pretty good today Kofuzi, I think you've finally crossed the threshold of "growing my hair long" Lol.

[@teewaikay]

Great review as always, Michael. Do you know if these are compatible with the Garmin Forerunner series (in particular, the Forerunner 245 Music)? Thank you.

[@phylosophdotcom]

I highly recommend Samsung Galaxy Buds+ which are the best in terms of sound for TWS (only falling short to maybe Sennheisers) and also extremely comfortable. As the audio nerd bought them just for music and comfort before got into the running but they hold well during the run while being extremely comfortable. I wear them every day for 6-8 hours. But I use memory foam ear tips instead of standard silicone ones.

[@scottyb7032]

I’ve had a similar pair, and like Danny J. said they fell out. Now I just use my phone upside down in an arm band. I’m running solo on the country roads so it’s just me and the cows.

[@dannyj1983]

Looking more majestic every day, my friend. I just can't get behind this style of earbud. I've tried similar brands. They're always extremely expensive, fall out when I'm running, precarious to own and lag a bit. (because it's a 3-way BT connection, maybe?) There's nothing more reliable, for me than a wired overear pair of BT Letscom's for $20. They always last over a year, sound just fine and I'm not too worried if I lose/break them. I just don't see the appeal of this hazardous style of headphone. Bit of a rant there.

[@Americaonline0]

Yeah, I think of earbuds similar to sunglasses - you can buy cheap ones that work fine and if you lose them or they break you’re fine. I’ve got the JLab GoAirs for $30 - they work fine.

[@garyso8049]

Thanks for the review Kofuzi, with the price being $80, which is already half of a Jaybird Vista, I can guarantee these will satisfy with powerful yet clear sound 100%. If not, get a refund from us, tell them Gary sent you.

[@marcellod.castro4926]

Can these be worn without the Fins?? They look very nice except I don't like fins.

[@JDelta87]

I’ve recently seen the Jaybird Vistas drop down to $100 bucks at times but without an ambient sound option on them, I’ve passed on them.

[@RumbleBack-iz3tl]

Are you happy with the vantage V2?

[@felipearc8277]

Have you tried the Jlab buds? It sounds good really for under $80.

[@84bonez]

I just got a pair, using right now actually, I really like them. They stay in my ears comfortably, and sound good. I don’t like the button system, as they put a lot of pressure on my inner ear when I’m running on pressing them, but otherwise a great buy.

[@felipearc8277]

@@84bonez they made an updated version of them. They cost $10 more and its touch buttons. So more pressing it in.

[@84bonez]

@@felipearc8277 I should’ve gotten those. May upgrade just for that honestly. Thanks man

[@felipearc8277]

@@84bonez no problem man. Its almost identical names. Their called the air icon
