Not from water \u2014 from salt. Sweat is about 1% salt, and that salt crystallises in the charging contacts, which is why a pair that &#8220;worked fine for a year&#8221; starts refusing to charge at eighteen months. IP ratings measure a splash test in a lab; they do not measure the corrosion your own body produces.<\/p>\n<h2>What IP68 does and does not promise<\/h2>\n<p>IP68 means dust-tight and water-resistant beyond the usual immersion test \u2014 the manufacturer specifies the depth, and they rarely do. What it does not promise is survival in a gym bag for two years, because the failure mode there is not water ingress but skin oils, sunscreen, and salt bridging the pogo pins in the case.<\/p>\n<p>Which leads to the thing to actually look at: whether the contacts are gold-plated, whether the case drains, and whether the earbuds dry themselves out. Cheaper pairs fail this and it never shows up in a review until year two.<\/p>\n<p>The second decision is fit, and it is a physical one. Hook-over-ear designs put the weight on the back of your ear; twist-lock designs put it in the canal. Hooks survive hat brims and sunglasses; canal locks survive violent head movement but seal your ear, which is exactly what you do not want on a road.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:14px;margin:18px 0 10px;\">\n<thead>\n<tr style=\"background:#f9fafb;\">\n<th style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e7eb;\">&nbsp;<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e7eb;\">soundcore Sport X20<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e7eb;\">JBL Endurance Race 2<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #e5e7eb;\">JBL Endurance Peak 3<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Stated protection<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Sweat and water resistant, per listing<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">IP68<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">IP68<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Fit system<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Hook over the ear with wing tip<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">TwistLock tip, no hook<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Hook over the ear<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Best for<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Running with a cap or glasses<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Gym, machine work<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Trail, long sessions<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Charging<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Case<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Case<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Case<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">Price<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">See button<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">See button<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:10px;border-bottom:1px solid #f1f2f4;\">See button<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>All three are aimed at the same buyer \u2014 someone who sweats on purpose \u2014 and the differences are in how they hold on, not in how they sound.<\/p>\n<h2>1. soundcore Sport X20: the one for outdoor running<\/h2>\n<figure style=\"margin:6px 0 22px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51+-0j8JdjL._AC_SL1500_.jpg\" alt=\"soundcore Sport X20 earbuds\" width=\"640\" style=\"max-width:420px;height:auto;display:block;border-radius:8px;background:#fff;border:1px solid #eee;\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:12px;line-height:1.5;color:#6b7280;margin-top:8px;\">soundcore Sport X20.
