It's Time to Get Moving and Get FIT

Comfortable, stable, and built for action, BackBeat FIT features an active design that fits comfortably and stays put for all levels of exercise.

Sweat-Proof, Durable Design

You can rely on the BackBeat FIT to work as hard as you do through rain, sweat, and even the splash of a sports drink. BackBeat FIT headphones are protected against sweat and moisture damage by its design and technology. Then, an invisible, protective nano-coating is applied during the manufacturing process, resulting in invisible liquid repellent properties that also make the earbuds more reliable, wherever your busy life takes you.

Stay Moving Longer

You'll enjoy a week of workouts with up to 8 hours of listening time. When the BackBeat FIT is out of range from your phone or tablet, the DeepSleep power-saving hibernation mode kicks in to keep the headphones charged for up to six months.

Track Battery Levels

Keep track of the battery life of your BackBeat FIT earbuds with a handy headset battery meter that automatically displays onscreen for iPhone and iPad. For Android smartphones and tablets, the free Plantronics Battery Meter app displays a headset battery meter and can provide on-screen alerts when your battery is low or fully charged.

Gets Better with Time

Wirelessly update your BackBeat FIT using a free smartphone app no connection to a PC or Mac is needed. You will be automatically notified when new firmware is released, and both iOS and Android platforms are supported.

Headband bobs but I found a fix
4 Stars
Headband bobs but I found a fix
These definitely aren't 100% perfect (for me) but were the best of several I tried out and I've been happy with them over the last 1.5 months. I was looking to go Bluetooth for running so that was my main focus when looking at features, but I also wanted to try them for making phone calls while walking since my regular earbuds for listening to music don't have a built-in mic.Running: These aren't the most comfortable fit in my ears ever (I much prefer the tips on my Bose earbuds -- the ones with the little wing that curls up off the bud to hug you ear) but they do the trick and aren't uncomfortable! Sometimes adjusting the angle of the part around the back of my ears will help them settle in a little more comfortably. Once on, they don't slip off while I'm running. I do find, though, that the band in the back is longer than I'd like and bobs up and down as I run, which I found annoying and it made me afraid they were going to bounce right off my ears. I found a fix, though, which is just securing the big loop around the back to the underside of my hair with a bobby pin or hairclip. I'm sure it looks awkward but it does the trick when I'm running. I'm a little worried that bending and clipping the strap like that will make the wires inside wear down more quickly but so far that hasn't been a problem.Walking & talking on phone: I could hear well and while I haven't been on the receiving end to confirm sound quality, I asked the person on the line a few times about the quality and all said pretty good. It's hard to make calls if it's windy though, as the mic will really pick that up. When walking, even at a brisk pace, I didn't find the bobbing headstrap to be as much of a problem as while running but occasionally I can feel it. I also find if my hair is down it'll tend to get in the way and knock the piece off my ear sometimes. I'm definitely happier with these as running headphones than for day-to-day use but I just switch out my wired Bose ones when I'm out and want to switch from listening to music to making a call.Other: I really like that when you turn them on a voice tells you your battery level and whether they're connected to a device. SO much easier than trying to remember how many flashes mean "battery low" or "connected" like the signals on some other Bluetooth headphones are. I also haven't had any problems with the bluetooth connection. Sure, once in a while I'll get a random disruption but they're infrequent and the connection is generally problem-free with the headphones on my ears and my phone in a fanny pack around my back or in an armband. When I get home sometimes I keep listening to whatever I had on and I've left my phone on a counter and walked around my entire (small one-bedroom) apartment and usually the connection stays fine throughout. I always seem to forget which button does what and inevitably have to take them off to look and remind myself. Maybe that means the controls aren't intuitive or maybe it just means I need to study the user's manual and learn the damn things! Occasionally when adjusting them on my ears I'll accidentally hit a button but for the most part that hasn't been an issue. I haven't worn these to the gym yet but have a feeling they may let in too much noise there. I like being able to hear some ambient noise when I'm running but I think at a gym with loud music these might not be loud enough. Lastly, I kinda wish it just came with a regular case instead of this one that converts to an armband. Because I already owned a running armband I would prefer a regular case! I will probably cut the strap out. Having the strap on there means you either have to shove your headphones in there with the strap in the way, or to have a pouch that's empty inside you have the strap on the outside. I'm sure this would do the trick as an armband but it's missing a lot of the features my dedicated running armband has. It's not very streamlined, you can't use a touchscreen phone without unzipping and pulling the whole phone out, and the strap looks to me like it might slip especially if you're sweaty. I'm attaching a photo of the case in armband mode so you get a better idea what I mean.
