Headphone experiences

Hi,

I've just bought a 245M and am looking for headphones. Some can be quite expensive and I don't want to buy a pair only to find that they have problems with the 245M. I doubt if sellers would take back a pair that do not work well with the 245M once I have opened the box and stuck them in my ears.I know that Garmin have produced a list of 9 but I'd like to hear users experiences with these and other headphones. I think that this would be useful to both myself and others considering buying headphones. Thanks in advance to any contributors.

I couldn't agree more with MaxR6. I also bought 245M last week. Love it. I actually had the Anker Soundcore P2. Bluetooth 5 did the trick.

The perfect entry-level Bluetooth headphones at an extremely affordable price. Very happy for half a year.

A lot of different rubber inserts are included with…

That's indeed tricky.

Maybe Garmin can add feature 'find my earbud' next to 'find my phone' . ;-)

Thanks for the contributions. Perhaps I should have mentioned that I wear the watch on my left wrist. It would be useful to know where the antenna is and if it is possible to switch the earphones from right to left and vice versa in order to have the antenna on the best side.

I also use my watch on the left wrist, no problems. It is also no problem to switch the earphones from left to right (on most music titles, it is not important). I use a 15$ Soundpeats Qy7 + FR245 without issues.

Earbuds Rolfstone Nova are working without problems. Watch on left wrist. Also they don't fall out of my ears while running.

I use JBL endurance sprint earphones and wear watch on left wrist. Works as it should. No problems so far and reasonably good sound quality keeping in mind the price of the earphones.

Cheers, F
