OpenDots Air

Picked up the Daybreak Purple pair mainly because I wanted to hear traffic while biking, and they really do sit outside the ear canal instead of plugging it up. Podcasts come through clear but I can still catch cars coming up behind me.

Wore these on a ten mile run and forgot they were on — the open fit means I can still hear cars coming, which I never got with regular buds. The Daybreak Purple is way less loud in person than the photos suggest, more of a soft lilac.

Wore these on a 5-mile run and barely noticed them, which is exactly what I wanted from open earbuds. The sound stays clear without plugging my ears, so I can still hear cars coming up behind me.
