chaotic and over the top I asked a magic eight ball if my fortune cookie idea was any good and it said that magic eight ball was a better one How I built itI ve started with the actual magic eight ball script The most important part was of course to write the answers I ve learned that a classic magic eight ball has answers but they are so boring I wanted something opposite of boring Therefore I went to ChatGPT and politely asked it to generate some funny responses Of course I ve asked it for an algorithm as well but it was too plain const responses It is certain Without a doubt Yes

UintArray randomSize crypto getRandomValues randomValues const randomIndex randomValues Math floor Math random randomSize responses length return responses randomIndex Now that s what I call magic

The best wireless workout headphones for 2023 |
https://www.engadget.com/best-wireless-workout-headphones-191517835.html?src=rss
|
The best wireless workout headphones for As some of you might know I m a runner On occasion I review sports watches and outside of work I m a certified marathon coach So when Engadget wanted to round up the best wireless workout headphones I raised my hand In addition to fit and battery life I considered factors such as style ease of use the charging case the strength of the Bluetooth connection support for assistants such as Siri and Alexa water resistance ratings and audio features such as noise cancelation and ambient sound modes You ll notice I don t have much if anything to say about sound quality Engadget s resident expert Billy Steele has written plenty about the listening experience in his standalone reviews which I ve linked throughout but for my purposes the differences were too subtle to make or break a purchasing decision In the end I never quite mastered some of the over complicated controls but at no point did an earbud fall out while I was exercising I also never came close to running out of juice So participation trophies for everyone Ha The companies wish I do indeed have some favorites while some fell short in key areas How we testedWater resistanceEven if earbuds aren t marketed specifically as workout headphones a sturdy water resistant design will by default make them suitable for exercise To avoid repeating myself throughout this guide I ll drop a quick primer here on durability or ingression protection IP ratings The first digit you ll see after the “IP refers to protection from dust and other potential intrusions That spec is measured on a scale of to The second refers to water resistance or even waterproofing in the best cases Higher numbers mean more protection while the letter “X means the device is not rated for protection in that regard The ratings for water resistance are ranked on a scale of to All but one of the best workout headphones we tested for this guide is rated IPX That means there s no dust protection and the buds can withstand splashes from any direction and are sweat resistant but probably shouldn t be submerged The most durable set of true wireless earbuds we tested Jabra s Elite Active is rated IP which means a high level of both dust and water protection Whereas the IPX models can handle splashes the Elite Active can be immersed for up to minutes in up to a meter or about feet of water For a detailed breakdown of all the possible permutations I recommend checking out this guide published by a supplier called The Enclosure Company Earbuds we testedDurability ratingBeats Powerbeats ProIPXBeats Fit ProIPXJabra Elite Active IPSony WF CIPXAnker Soundcore Liberty ProIPXActive noise cancelationFor the update to this guide I decided to add a note up top about active noise cancelation ANC simply because most of the available models now offer it And since the user experience is actually pretty similar across different brands I thought it would be easier to share what noise canceling features they have in common rather than repeat myself First of all no noise cancellation is perfect If you re looking for sport earbuds that you can continue wearing even after you re done working out you might still hear some noise from the outside world whether it be your robot vacuum or cars honking The difference in quality with ANC enabled is undeniable just don t take these companies marketing claims too literally Besides I don t recommend active noise cancellation while exercising outdoors it s not safe And even if you are working out indoors I still think a noise cancellation horse race is probably beside the point for the purpose of this guide The Best Wireless Workout HeadphonesThe best all purpose wireless workout headphones Jabra Elite ActivePros Reasonably priced for the feature set sleek compact design one of the lightest charging cases we tested and some of the longest battery life more durable than most active noise cancelation a transparency mode and customizable equalizer works with Spotify Tap on Android Cons Onboard controls aren t intuitive but Jabra offers helpful instructions in its app less comfortable after prolonged use than other brands Much like the Elite Active t we tested a few years back the newer Elite Active earbuds make a strong first impression with a compact stylish design and a lightweight charging case to match Available in three colors the earbuds aren t just small and light but they look especially sleek given that they don t have any wingtips Though they felt comfortable when I first put them in my ears did feel a little sore by the end of a run Meanwhile the gram case is also among the lightest we tested but still offers some of the longest battery life promising a total of hours Each individual earbud on its own is rated for seven hours Jabra says you can return to an hour s worth of juice after a minute charge In my testing the earbuds were easy to insert and pair Less easy is learning how to use the things As you might expect you press the right earbud once to stop and resume playback You can also double press the right bud to skip a track and triple press it to play it again But some of the other onboard controls are less obvious To increase the volume hold down the right earbud for a second to lower it long press the left earbud Meanwhile single pressing the left earbud allows you to toggle between active noise cancelation HearThrough mode or neither Lastly double press the left bud to use a voice assistant The good news is you don t have to commit all those finger gestures to memory Jabra s Sound App for iOS and Android contains a helpful illustrated tutorial which I recommend keeping open on your phone as you get settled in with your new earbuds I mastered the controls quickly enough but the physical buttons on the earbuds require a little more pressure and coordination to get an accurate press in I found myself waiting until I had slowed to a walk before I started fiddling with the tracks Even then I needed to be very deliberate to make sure I got it right And usually I did That said given there s no physical volume rocker I did wish there were an aural cue confirming I had moved the volume up or down a notch the progression from louder to softer or vice versa is very subtle After a roughly minute run the battery was still at percent a similar showing to what I saw on the Beats Fit Pro also featured in this guide Like the Elite Active t I tested previously the Elite Active uses Jabra s HearThrough technology With that enabled I could hear cars along my running route though on an especially windy day the gusts drowned out softer noises like footsteps behind me That s despite the earbuds having four built in mics with what Jabra calls a “mesh covering for added wind noise reduction Although I tested the Elite Active on an iPhone the earbuds have some additional features on Android including support for Spotify Tap which resumes where you last left off listening to your Spotify account on any device Android users also get support for Alexa and Google s Fast Pair tech While I recommend the Elite Active for most people it s also worth quickly mentioning the Elite Active which adds Jabra s ShakeGrip technology for what the company claims is a more secure fit You also get slightly better battery life eight hours per bud or hours with the case and even faster charging an hour of playback after a five minute charge Lastly choosing the Elite Active over the Elite Active gives you the option of either Google Assistant or Alexa as well as voice guidance However you d be giving up call controls which you do get on the Elite Active Read our Full Review of Jabra Elite ActiveThe most comfortable wireless workout headphones Beats Powerbeats ProPros Comfortable stable fit pairs seamlessly with iOS devices intuitive controls with mirrored access on the left and right sides tied with Sony for the longest earbud battery life Cons Ear hook design isn t the most discreet and doesn t fit so well with sunglasses relatively heavy charging case no active noise cancelation transparency mode or customizable EQ speaking to an assistant is slightly less convenient if it s not Siri For the purposes of this guide I tested two pairs of Beats headphones the Beats Fit Pro earbuds and the Powerbeats Pro earbuds with an over the ear hook design I ll start with the Powerbeats Pro which I like better for exercising Other than being slightly conspicuous the Powerbeats Pro comes in four colors and fits comfortably though it doesn t play as nicely with glasses and face masks as more compact in ear designs Compared to the other earbuds I tested though I felt especially confident the Powerbeats Pro would stay put during workouts Like Apple s newest AirPods the Powerbeats Pro use Apple s H chip which allows for particularly deep integration when you pair the earbuds with an Apple made device In addition to a fast seamless pairing process you can activate Siri by saying “Hey Siri without having to press a button You can also share audio with other AirPods or Beats headphones and can enjoy automatic switching between Apple devices For better and worse the integration is so complete in fact that there s no companion app instead you check the earbuds and cases battery via other methods such as a homescreen widget or by asking Siri The earbuds themselves are rated for nine hours of use which is among the highest we ve seen The case is rated for a total of hours of use which isn t bad but given that it s not best in class you have to wonder why the case is as heavy as it is Heavy enough that my purse feels a little lighter without it iOS users won t mind that the case charges via a Lightning cable and not USB C but others might be slightly put out If you ve ever used AirPods or Apple s old school wired headphones these should be pretty easy to master Double press the physical button on the earbud to skip tracks and triple press it to go backward I quickly came to love the physical key it s less finicky than a touch surface I was also grateful for the mirroring of controls between the left and right earbuds ーboth left and right handed people should be happy Having tested other wireless earbuds that either lack onboard volume controls or make it tedious I have come to particularly appreciate the Powerbeats Pro s onboard volume rockers one for each earbud I don t know of any other workout earbuds that make it easier to adjust the volume not even the Beats Fit Pro While it s nice to have easier volume access the audio experience is otherwise basic There is no active noise cancellation or transparency mode Not a dealbreaker for workouts but something to consider if you re an audiophile or your goal is to get one pair of earbuds you can wear for everything Other features include support for voice assistants yes Google and Amazon too but only Siri can be summoned by a voice command You can also wear just one bud if you like the right one if all you need to do is talk on the phone or if you want to keep an ear open to what s going on around you nbsp Read our Full Review of Beats Powerbeats Pro Honorable mention Beats Fit ProPros Comfortable stable fit pairs easily with iOS devices compact lightweight charging case adds ANC and transparency modes which the Powerbeats Pro lacks Cons A smaller design than the Powerbeats Pro means shorter battery life and the loss of a physical volume rocker no customizable EQ One of my main complaints about the Powerbeats Pro is that they don t fit as well if you re wearing sunglasses or in pandemic times a mask This is where the Beats Fit Pro have the advantage Their discreet design that promises to stay out of the way and safe even during sweaty workouts Available in four colors the buds are easy to insert and comfortable to wear just twist the bud to fold the wingtip into your upper ear And because the earbuds are smaller than the Powerbeats Pro the case is markedly lighter and more compact g versus g on the Pro Between the lightweight case and the less dorky design the Beats Fit Pro make a strong case for themselves as earbuds you can wear not just during workouts but everywhere Because the Beats Fit Pro were released more recently than the Powerbeats Pro they have active noise cancellation a feature older Powerbeats and AirPods products are lacking At the same time Apple built in a transparency mode ideal for runners like me who would feel safer if they could still hear ambient cues like footsteps and car horns Lastly it supports Apple s Spatial Audio format for a more immersive sound and will automatically kick in if you re playing a compatible track For working out the audio is fine But if you can only afford one pair of earbuds my colleague Billy Steele indicated in his review that the sound quality is mediocre He found calls could be patchy and as he notes Beats is one of the few brands that doesn t offer users a customizable EQ Out of the box the earbuds are set to active noise cancellation There are two ways to adjust this You can hold down the physical button on either earbud to cycle through audio profiles Or you can find the earbuds in your Bluetooth settings menu and click further to see a more detailed menu of options Not only can you adjust the mode there but you can also change what those physical buttons do By default they re for toggling audio profiles but you can also set them up so that one earbud controls volume up and the other volume down Personally I preferred having the option of adjusting the volume from my earbuds mid workout it s easy to just pick an audio mode before your run and stick with it Other than the slightly limited volume controls the Beats Fit Pro works much like other Beats and Apple branded headphones Press the physical button once to play or pause tracks double press to skip forward and triple press to replay a track For anyone upgrading from an older pair of Beats or Apple earbuds the transition should be easy My only word of caution is that I found the physical button on the Beats Fit Pro harder to find by feel as it s smaller and less indented than the button on the Powerbeats Pro Apple rates the Beats Fit Pro for six hours of listening time per earbud plus an additional hours from the USB C charging case You can also wear just one bud if you like to squeeze out even more runtime In my testing the battery on the buds dropped down to percent after a minute run Extrapolate that and the math comes close to Apple s six hours per bud claim If you ve managed to completely exhaust both the earbud and case Apple says its “Fast Fuel feature will get you back to one hour of use after five minutes of charging the same claim Jabra makes for the comparably priced Elite Active Note Apple s one hour estimate assumes you won t be using ANC Under the hood the earbuds have the same Apple made H chip as the Powerbeats Pro and Apple s newer AirPods allowing for hands free “Hey Siri audio sharing with other AirPods or Beats headphones and automatic switching between devices The headphones also work with the Find My app even on Android devices Read our Full Review of Beats Fit ProThe best budget workout earbuds Sony WF CWhat you get Reasonably priced earbuds that prioritize a light design and good audio quality Pros Lightweight reasonably priced support for Sony s Reality Audio format the earbuds themselves claim relatively long battery life customizable EQ supports Google Fast Pair Cons No ANC or transparency mode slightly trickier to pair on iOS than other earbuds we tested the charging case has lower capacity than competing models they have a larger more bulbous design than others we tested but are no less comfortable With the WF C earbuds Sony is really emphasizing the small design The earbuds themselves weigh grams while the charging case is g That would be the lightest case we tested and nearly the lightest pair of earbuds barring the much pricier Elite Active It s worth noting that a lighter charging case means shorter case battery life a relatively low hours Even then the earbuds themselves offer some of the longest battery life of the bunch hours per bud If you do run low on charge you can get back up to an hour s worth of capacity in minutes Sony says The earbuds available in four colors were larger than I was expecting given their light weight but they re easy to insert and fit comfortably They are slightly trickier for iPhone users to pair on iOS than other buds I tested for this guide though Android users will benefit from support for Google Fast Pair By default a robotic voice will tell you the earbuds battery charge as you re putting them in I found this useful though it meant that there was a delay in getting to hear whatever I had been listening to You can always disable voice guidance in Sony s Headphones app if that bothers you The truth is I rarely had range anxiety with these headphones anyway Unlike other earbuds which took a roughly percent hit after my usual minute run these were still at percent It s unlikely I ll ever wear out both the buds and charging case before getting to a wall charger The controls were also easy to master without having to consult Sony s companion app On the right earbud press once to play or pause audio playback or to answer or end a call Double press to skip tracks and triple press to go to the previous song Long pressing the right earbud launches or cancels a voice assistant You can also long press to decline a call On the left earbud some of the controls are mirrored you can press once to receive end a call and long press to reject it The left bud is also where the volume controls live press once to raise it and hold the button down to lower it As one of the options in this guide with a lower price tag the WF C are the only ones without active noise cancellation Which to me isn t a dealbreaker The eartips already do a good enough job passively blocking noise to the point where I was startled when a group of runners ran up from behind in the park and passed me If anything I wished the earbuds had a transparency mode that would allow more ambient noise through Fortunately I could still hear louder noises like nearby traffic The lack of ANC aside the audio quality is quite good which makes sense given Sony s heritage in audio and home theater gear Like other models listed here barring Beats anyway you can adjust the EQ in the companion app And as you might expect the earbuds support Sony s Reality Audio format which is similar to Apple s spatial tech which in turn is built on the Dolby Atmos format The most customizable wireless workout headphones Anker Soundcore Liberty ProPros The only buds we tested with wireless charging long battery life especially on the charging case active noise cancelation a transparency mode and customizable equalizer lots of options for setting up the controls to your liking Cons Larger and a little harder to insert than competing models touch sensitive controls can be finicky worse sound quality than the competition in app battery indicator doesn t give you a percentage The Soundcore Liberty Pro earbuds are available in four colors and carry a big emphasis on ergonomic fit That includes air filled wings silicone ear tips similar to other brands and a promise of air pressure relief per Anker The earbuds don t come with the eartips or wingtips attached which adds some friction to the setup process but on the plus side you get a choice of four ear tip sizes compared with three from most other headphone makers Inside the Soundcore app you ll find a fit test but I actually ended up with a more comfortable fit by just following my gut But it s certainly worth playing around with The Liberty Pro is right up there with the Sony CF in terms of being some of the larger earbuds I tested for this guide That said they fit comfortably and stay put I will say however that these were consistently harder to insert than some other brands I tested even after I d had a bit of practice When I originally published this guide in September I ruled out Anker s Soundcore Spirit Dot wireless earbuds on account of their fussy touch controls and the fact that you couldn t adjust the volume from the buds themselves I m happy to report that the situation has improved mostly First the bad news The controls are still finicky and especially difficult to get right while moving But they do offer volume control Thank goodness The controls are also programmable inside the Soundcore app So you can at least customize the long press and single double and triple taps in a way that feels intuitive In addition to music and volume playback you can also use the controls to toggle audio modes or to activate a voice assistant Google or Alexa Just as you can modify the earbud controls you have options as far as sound quality too There are ANC and transparency modes along with a “normal setting in between Also like Sony and Jabra Anker allows for customization of the EQ from within the app Interestingly wind reduction is a feature you have to actively opt into Anker says this is because the wind reducing mode dings ANC performance and since it s unlikely people will often find themselves in strong winds it may as well not be turned on by default Later this year Anker will push out a software update that will add “enhanced vocal mode which promises to increase vocal pickup in the area around you according to an Anker spokesperson Additionally Anker touts three mics per earbud along with AI noise reduction I can t prove that there s a connection here but I did notice they sounded a little tinnier compared with other headphones Sometimes some random buzz even crept in It s hard to know if that slight distortion is a result of the AI doing its work but I wonder The Soundcore Liberty Pro has the distinction of being the only earbuds we tested for this guide with a case that can charge wirelessly The buds themselves are rated for eight hours of battery life apiece or hours with the case making this the longest lasting charging case we tested for this story Anker also says that you can return to three hours of capacity after minutes of charging After a minute run the battery indicator in the app showed a mostly full charge though unfortunately Anker doesn t give you a percentage This article originally appeared on Engadget at |
