The best Prime Day running headphone deals to shop as the sale comes to a close

The second-gen Shokz OpenFit seriously impressed our testers, improving on the first model on almost every front. They have a lighter, more flexible design that makes for a more natural and secure fit — no mid-run adjustments needed.

Crucially, Shokz has replaced the fiddly touch controls with physical buttons, making it easier to pause, skip or change volume on the go, even with gloves on. And sound quality has taken a real step forward, thanks to DualBoost drivers, delivering more detailed sound.

These are a brilliant pair of earbuds for a very reasonable price (just £108 in the sale!) — particularly compared to competitors like Apple and Bose. Whether you're clocking up the miles on breezy hills or in a bustling gym, they drown out unwanted noises, soundtrack your sprints with high quality sound and, most importantly, stay put.

Designed for runners, cyclists and hikers, these bone-conduction headphones sit in front of your ears, providing the safest way to listen to music or podcasts without blocking out your surroundings.

So, if you’re out for a 10K, you can still take in potential dangers like passing cars while listening to music. They’re a great way to soak up race-day atmosphere, too, while still getting that music-induced boost.

It's rare for Apple to discount their products so any price reduction is more than welcome — and these are £20 less than the discount we saw last year, making this their lowest ever price.

These 2nd generation AirPod Pro have amazing noise-cancelling technology which further enhances the already excellent sound quality. With a solid battery life of up to 30 hours they'll keep you motivated mile after mile.

These earbuds are worth every penny — particularly when they're half price. The punchy bass is great for pacing and their adjustable hooks fit around the ear to make sure they stay in place throughout any workout. Plus, they hardly ever drop this low price-wise, so now is the time to buy.

Easily some of the most comfortable in-ear headphones we've ever tried (that name doesn't lie), with some of the best noise cancelling out there, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra wowed our testers.

The transparency (or 'Aware' as the brand dubs it) mode is also excellent, dulling harsh or explosive sounds but keeping conversation crystal clear, and they've yet to wriggle free from our ears, despite hours of wear during vigorous exercise.

Our expert described the audio quality on these buds as ‘nearly flawless’, raving about the lack of distortion and smooth, detailed sound. They also gave the ANC their seal of approval and thought the transparency mode was solid – great news for the road runners among you.

On that note, the compact buds stayed in place when on the move – we had no issues with them falling out or coming loose – and the quick-charge feature, which provides an hour’s playback from a five-minute charge, was a lifesaver for last-minute runs.

We had high hopes when these shiny new Beats arrived at the RW Lab and fortunately, they didn’t disappoint. In fact, they exceeded our expectations thanks to the impeccable sound quality and second-to-none noise cancelling tech. The touch controls on the padded ear cups were responsive and they felt comfortable, even after prolonged use.

For those always on the go, these travel-friendly Beats are a great choice. Both arms can be snapped shut and the durable hardshell carry case can be hooked onto your kit bag – ideal if you’re short on space and are rushing from work to the track.

These over-ears scored top marks for comfort, with breathable, padded ear cups and a cushioned headband. During fitness pursuits, they needed some readjusting but once in the right position, they stayed put and allowed us to focus on the task at hand.

On a budget? Then look no further for wireless headphones as this is one of the best deals we've seen. With a waterproof sealed shell they are perfect for a hard sweaty workout or intense run in the rain. When it comes to battery life, you'll get 6 hours from a single charge and whopping 40 hours with the charging case.

Another open-ear alternative to classic bone conductors, the OpenFit basically puts mini speakers outside your ears, leaving you free to hear more of the world around you than regular in-ear headphones. The OpenFit sound is louder and bigger than their Shokz regular bone-conductors but still not quite the quality you can expect with the better regular running headphones.

They have an ear-hook fit that lacks a little security when you’re bounding down trail descents and moving at top pace but for easy miles and the gym-commute-office crossover, these beat regular Shokz.

Save 27% on these over-ear headphones. With total noise cancellation, you can drown out the world around you while you pound the pavements, and if you forget to charge them before a run, just 10 minutes of quick charging will last you five hours. There’s also hands-free calling.

Stay safe and sound on your runs with these open-ear earbuds. Designed to keep you aware of your surroundings, they let you stay alert without missing a beat, so you can enjoy your favourite tunes and keep street safety in check.

They're lightweight and super comfortable in the ears, as well as having an IPX4 rating so you can really get your sweat on with no worries.

Level up your summer workouts with these affordable over-ear headphones for those who like to block out the world with active noise cancellation, a 40-hour battery life and detailed audio, all for under £50.

You can pick up these sporty earbuds for 80% off, yes 80%, during Amazon Prime Day sales. They're ultra-comfortable for active movers, immersive sound experience and an ultra-long playtime of up to 75 hours.
