The Adidas FWD-02 is certainly cut from the same aesthetic cloth as the brand’s running shoes, but it lacks quality in multiple areas.

Another set of Adidas true wireless earphones that entertain with their audio. The FWD-02 Sport are the best value option of them all; they’re comfortable to wear, easy to operate and with a solid awareness mode. Like the rest of the Adidas true wireless series, however, they’re lighter on overall features compared to rivals.

The Adidas FWD-02 Sport bring the power and bass and offer a reliable fit, making them a strong option for runners and workout lovers that are looking to spend less than $200 / £150 / AU$300 on a pair of sports buds.
