A major concern with earbuds, and most headphones really, is that they can cause hearing loss because of how they isolate sound, especially at loud volumes. But it doesn’t have to be that way, according to Oladance. Instead of the traditional in-ear design employed by most headphone makers, the Oladance earbuds have an open-ear design. They rest on top of your outer ear, gently and yet securely, which is great if you’re active, like going for a run, working out, or on the move. There are no tips, so they never go inside your ear, which means they’re better for your eardrums than traditional buds. Even so, they offer superior sound so you’ll get a pleasant, immersive experience no matter what you’re listening to. Full transparency keeps you connected and tuned into your environment while you’re listening as well. To coincide with Prime Day, they’re on sale for $150, and from July 12 until July 13 they’ll be even cheaper at $119, down from $179.

They fit comfortably on the outside of the ear — not inside — to offer a safer and healthier listening experience. The five-point support fit system ensures they remain snugly in place, and the skin-friendly silicone is soft and comfortable. Setting the headphones on the outside of the ear has no negative impact on sound quality, so you’ll hear clear highs, booming lows, and punchy bass. There’s no quality compromise. This also allows for some rather unique scenarios you wouldn’t get with other, comparable earbuds or headsets. For example, you can still hear and remain responsive to your family while wearing the
The earbuds are IPX4 water and sweatproof, so you can wear them while running, even in the rain. Smart touch controls allow you to skip tracks, adjust volume, and pause music quickly and easily. Moreover, you can take calls and access your phone-native voice assistant from the headphones.
