Adidas FWD-01 vs Shure E

The Adidas FWD-01 has done really well in a number of roundups conducted by sources that perform reliable hands-on testing, like techadvisor.com, Expert Reviews, and Good Housekeeping - it ended up getting the "Best Lightweight Neckbuds" title from techadvisor.com, "The best running headphones for battery life" from Expert Reviews, and "Best near-wireless headphones for the gym" from Good Housekeeping. That's high praise coming from reliable sources.

Taking a look at the Shure E, we found that it hasn't managed to perform well enough to earn a spot in any Wireless Earphone roundups done by sources that conduct their own, high-quality, hands-on testing. That alone makes it difficult to recommend.

Lastly, we wanted to do a direct Adidas FWD-01 vs. Shure E comparison of their review scores, but couldn't find any ratings for the Shure E.

Nevertheless, we were still able to analyze how the Adidas FWD-01 fared when compared to the rest of its competition. Our analysis of its review data has shown that it earned an average review score of 7.0, which is on par with the 7.2 overall average of Wireless Earphones in general.
