Using these for dance: Would these fall out/disconnect to my iPhone 3GS if I used them for dancing?

hi, its been a few months so maybe you already got these or something else? I just tried dancing in these today and they held up ok. The freedom is amazing..but I haven't cut totally loose with these yet. I started but then popped a shoe lace. So, after I get a new lace I will see how far these buds can hang with me & hopefully update this. Thanks. p.s. audio quality and volume are like higher-end buds. Im running these with a Cowon X7. Update: ====== the cord connecting the ear buds is sticky, even on sweaty skin to some extent but enough to throw these when really throttled up. To fix that I clipped the cord to my hair in back. Now I can spin my hair flat and top it, too, without any problem with these buds. I pushed it past where I normally would have lost regular ear buds also, and they work fine. The trick is keeping that cord off your back and getting those ear tips right (those triangle shaped things that fit on the ear buds). Its an awesome device, very well thought out. If I could change anything though I would add a grove on the ear buds so that the ear tips dont slip down the ear stalk. A set of ear buds, regardless of who makes them, lasts me about month, and my record is about 3 months. So, time will tell how sweat proof they really are. Overall, I am extremely happy with these so far, extremely because they weren't just a replacement but so far an improvement. Good luck.

I wouldn't run in them , I'm pretty sure they would fall off. They are just not made for high impact physical movement.

I do not have an iPhone 5S, but I do have the 5. To answer your question, they should fully function in the armband while performing your work-out

Yes, I run with them outside with my phone in an armband and get fairly regular skipping...it's annoying but I find it less annoying than cords.

nope. and there's no sliding piece to hold the buds together, so these tangle pretty badly. the earbuds are shaped so that they don't slide in and out of loops well. I've had the worst earbuds tangles with these. but the sound quality is amazing and these will rarely if ever fall out of your ear during very vigorous exercise.

Yes, these will stay in your ears much better than regular headphones. I bought these headphones just for physical activities and they haven't slipped out yes. They also sound great.

They will not fall off. They are pretty secure in your ears. I chop wood with mine on and I've never had a problem...except for forgetting that I always have them on!

I find they generally stay on my head when being bounced around, if you put them on right. I would probably pick earbuds over them if you're worried about them slipping off, though.

Lol. They're not real tight, but the'll likely still cause a small dip. The dip could probably be easily worked out with a comb. I think it is worth the hair comb because they are the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn and also the clearest.

It doesn't leak sound as much as the beats. These aren't as popular as the beats so you won't really see anyone using them anywhere. They don't fall off because they fit snug so they should be fine for the gym.

used mine for over 3 months constantly. they sit very tight. Never lost one - vs my apple where I already had to replace the buds 3 times

I use them when I go for walks at the park and they are perfect, but, I believe that depending on what type of activity you are doing at the gym. I believe that they would not work very well in a activity where your head is moving all the time, the headphone would tend move.

They actually stay and don't fall off, even when I ran (treadmill). The only problem I see is when you start sweating, and since these are not cheap headphones, I'm afraid to damage them, so I dont work out with them anymore. Overall, these are a great pair of headphones (wireless or otherwise)

Very unlikely. I have a pair of wired Bose headphones that I run with with the exact same earpiece. Not only do they never fall out, they are the most comfortable pair I've ever owned.

I use mine for cardio (DDR and running) and they stay on just fine. The only issue is that when you sweat a lot you have to dry your ears but other than that I love them. For weight lifting they also work fine. The only issue there would be when you lay down flat such as for doing bench press. They kinda move a bit so you have to fix them.

Yes, they pull out to adjust to your head. I wish they could be narrowed a bit if desired but that is not adjustable. They sound good. Like most Bluetooth phones they have more than enough volume for videos. iTunes at full volume in the gym is a little weak. I find myself wishing for a little more volume. Bass response is good and so is clarity. Good headphones.

I really do not think these were designed for dancing. Dancing in ski boots....? All night...? I would consider another alternative. But if you must, secure the battery packs with duct tape. Or, bring something else to wear and change into them. If I am moving my body (feet) as in dancing, cold feet is the least of my problems.
