I want to get earbuds that I can use while in the shower, I heard somewhere that these are able to be used in the shower but am not 100% certain. I don't want to buy some then they break on me, especially at the cost

I was thinking about getting myself a pair of openrun pro 2s now that they're on sale but I'm pretty confused. Why is the IP-rating of the basic openrun model better (IP67) than the pro model (IP55)? The pros are about 50€ more expensive (and have the better sound from what I've heard), so why are they worse in that regard?

And why are headphones that people like to use while running outside not fitted with a rating that would allow running in the rain?

Or do I misunderstand the rating and IP55 is perfectly fine for sudden surprise-downpours? If anybody has any experience with the openrun pro 2s, kindly let me know!

Edit: I asked customer support. Basically sweat and light rain are fine despite the worse rating, but rain showers not so much. It's good to know some of you have made the experience that they can endure a bit more though.

Hoping to get some help here. Should/can I use the openrun’s for lap swimming? Says not intended but says IP67 waterproof.

Any have OpenSwim’s and use for running? I’m doing a lot of cross training so want to get the best option but Openrun’s are a lot cheaper.
