#10 in our rankings · Best for swimming
NANK Runner Diver2 Pro, Grey
Best for: Serious swimmers and triathletes who want the highest water rating and onboard music for laps.

Mojawa Run Plus, Black
Best for: Swimmers and sweaty runners who want onboard music without a phone, at a mid-range position.
Our recommendation
Buy the NANK Runner Diver2 Pro if you swim seriously and want the highest water rating in the list, the most current Bluetooth, and a 10-hour battery. Buy the Mojawa Run Plus if you want the same 32 GB of onboard music and a swim rating at a lower position, with multipoint Bluetooth and app EQ, and you can live with touch controls that falter when wet. Both are real swim headsets; the NANK is the tougher one, the Mojawa is the better value.
Water rating
The NANK is IP69, rated for submersion to 10 metres, which is the highest water rating in this list and covers pool and open-water swimming. The Mojawa is IP68, which covers pool swimming and submersion, but not to the same depth. For pool laps, both are fine; for open water and deeper swims, the NANK has the margin.
Wireless and controls
The NANK uses Bluetooth 5.4, the most current version in this list, with a stable link on land. The Mojawa uses multipoint Bluetooth, so it keeps a phone and a laptop connected at once, and it offers four EQ modes in its app. The Mojawa also uses touch controls, which stop responding reliably when wet, while the NANK uses physical buttons that keep working in the pool.
Battery and storage
Both hold 32 GB of onboard music, which is thousands of songs for phone-free laps. The NANK runs up to 10 hours against the Mojawa at up to 8 hours, so it lasts longer between charges. The Mojawa answers with a 5-minute charge that gives 90 minutes, which rescues a forgotten charge before a swim.

- You want the most current Bluetooth version

Choose Mojawa Run Plus, Black if…
- You want the same 32 GB of onboard music for less money
- You want multipoint Bluetooth for phone and laptop

Strengths and limitations
NANK Runner Diver2 Pro, Grey
Strengths
- IP69 is the highest water rating in the list, rated for submersion to 10 metres, which covers pool and open-water swimming.
- 32 GB of onboard storage holds thousands of songs for phone-free laps, since Bluetooth does not work underwater.
- Bluetooth 5.4 gives the most current wireless connection in the list, with a stable link on land.
Limitations
- The swim-first design means road runners pay for features they will not use.
- The headset is heavier than the 26 g OpenRun, so it is less invisible on a long run.
- The fit is tuned for swimming, so check the band position and transducer contact before a long run.
Mojawa Run Plus, Black
Strengths
- IP68 plus 32 GB of onboard storage means music in the pool with no phone nearby, which is what swimming actually needs.
- Multipoint Bluetooth keeps a phone and a laptop connected at once, so calls and music do not fight each other.
- Four EQ modes in the app let you tune the sound for swimming or running, instead of living with one fixed tuning.
Limitations
- The touch controls stop responding reliably when wet, which is awkward mid-swim when you want to change track.
- The headset is heavier than the 26 g OpenRun, so it is less invisible on a long road run.
- The brand is less established than Shokz or Suunto, so long-term support is less certain.

Questions, answered
Which is better for pool laps?
Both, honestly: pool laps need a swim rating and onboard MP3 storage, and both have them. The NANK has the edge on battery and buttons, the Mojawa has the edge on price and EQ. Choose the NANK if you swim most days, the Mojawa if you swim a few times a week.
Can either headset play music from my phone in the pool?
No, neither can: Bluetooth does not work underwater, so both headsets switch to their onboard MP3 player for laps. Load music onto the 32 GB storage before the swim, and use Bluetooth only on land, for example for the walk to the pool.
Which is better for running as well as swimming?
The Mojawa is the slightly better dual-use pick, since its multipoint Bluetooth and app EQ suit daily wear, though its touch controls falter when wet. The NANK is the better pure swim pick. For mostly running with occasional swimming, a Shokz set plus a swim set is a better answer than either of these alone.
