According to our earbuds expert
With the waterproof Plantronics Backbeat Fit, you can listen to music wirelessly when doing sports. The Bluetooth battery lasts for up to 8 hours. Were you just going to exercise, but the battery is empty? You can recharge your earbuds for 1 hour of use in just 15 minutes. The ear hooks ensure that the earbuds will stay firmly in your ears during your run. The neckband is lightweight and flexible, so you'll barely feel it in your neck. With the buttons on the earbuds, you can control your music and take incoming calls. The reflective finish allows you to exercise safely in the dark when wearing earbuds.

I bought this headset for daily swimming. It is excellent. Bluetooth connections are flawless and easy to set up. I can listen to Spotify all over the pool (25 meters, 5 lanes) with my phone somewhere on a bench on the side, in a bag. Head under water is no problem either, although I wouldn't go diving with it. Just swimming laps is not an issue. I also keep them in when I shower afterwards.
The sound quality is of course not great, because this must above all be waterproof. However, for spoken word and light music it is fine. Very handy: as soon as you switch it on, it announces the remaining usage time, in hours. That is a maximum of 8 hours. I can easily last a week with it.
The operation takes some getting used to: each side has different types of buttons and switches, which sometimes have to be touched 2 or 3 times. You have to get the hang of that, just like putting it on: there has to be a rubber hook around your ear and you have to fiddle with your auricle through it.
The cone of the speaker is partly rotatable, so the angle at which you wear it (I'm bald so it hangs on my neck, but with a full head of hair it can be different).
It costs something, but you also get something.

I am a big fan of the headset when it works... but after returning it twice I am forced to choose another headset. The buttons stopped responding and then it stopped charging. There are a lot of bad/angry reviews for this model on the Plantronics website. Over time, unexplained problems arise.
