The Jabra Sport Pulse headphones are designed to appeal to those of us who like to walk, run, or hit the gym as part of an exercise program. They use a wireless Bluetooth connection rather than a cord, and they also have a built-in heart-rate monitor that negates the need for an extra strap.

Jabra's Sport Pulse Wireless is a bit of an odd product; Jabra has built a fitness tracker right into a pair of headphones. But unlike a Fitbit or Jawbone fitness tracker, the Pulse isn't meant be used all the time, it's designed to be used when you're working out.

I get a lot of emails about what I think the best wireless sports headphones are, and it's always a difficult question to answer. The Beats Powerbeats2 Wireless are the best-selling headphone in the category and offer decent fit and sound, but not everybody likes them for the price.
