My AirPods. They work well and allow me to listen to podcasts while grocery shopping and doing mindless tasks. There other headphones out there but for whatever reason these fit best and sound OK. A 30w phone charger. iPhones charge rather slow. This charger helps get over that. A lot of my daily routine is done through my phone.

Could you bike with them or can they fall out?

  I use them all of the time during my biking and workouts. I even sleep with them quite often. Never fall out somehow.

  I can (road) bike with an Airpod fairly securely in. For longer rides where I want to listen to a podcast, a little bit of surgical tape brings even more security. You may be aware of this, but the recommended way to wear Airpods (especially the 3rd gen non-Pro?) is to twist the stalks towards your face to 'lock' them into place better. (I discovered this when I was about to angrily throw out my new 3rd gen Airpods, as they were fatter than my original gen 1 model, and just wouldn't stay in place. I've never seen anyone else doing this [and I sometimes get comments from people for wearing mine oddly] but it's a game-changer.) https://www.reddit.com/r/airpods/comments/qgqo5a/psa_if_the_3rd_gen_airpods_dont_fit_your_ear/ https://www.reddit.com/r/airpods/comments/qgqo5a/psa_if_the_...

  It's very dependant on your ears and the eartip size you use. I personally would not bike with them, because as good as the passthrough audio is, there could be small differences in localizing sound that could really cause trouble on a bike. The passthrough is great, but not life or death situation great. Edit: this is for the Pros. The open non-pros seem like they would be safe for biking at lower volumes.

  They are pretty snug without hurting. I sometimes even fall asleep with them and they stay put most of the time. Mine are the regular cheaper air pods. Not the pro or whatever they call it.

  I bike with them, and while they fit me fine, the wind noise is a bigger issue. Shokz[0] are probably better for biking speficially, but AirPods work fine if you just pause your podcast on the descents. [0]: https://shokz.com/ https://shokz.com/
