Recommend Wireless Earbuds?
 

What are some good wireless earbuds these days?

I listen to music every day walking to/from work. I've already burned through 3 sets of wired earbuds, those stupid rubbery cords always get so tangled and eventually fail.

I'm not looking for Audiophile quality, just something that's decent, works good and is going to last a while.

I'm skeptical of the sub $100 no name Chinese brands I see on Amazon, but not looking to spend more than $200.

i got a pair of JBL's from staples for 29.99 - have lasted me 2 years.

Got a pair from Amazon since I have prime. SoundPEATS wireless earbuds or some shit along the lines of that, for $50.

They work surprisingly well. Sound quality is clear, crisp, and it comes with a charging case as well.

You mentioned you're not an audiophile; I wouldn't be able to justify spending $100+ on a pair unless I was able to discern the nuances in sound quality. Don't be afraid of the Chinese brands; just read up on the reviews and it'll be fine.

I'm using Anker SoundCore Liberty Air. I hear the Liberty Air 2 is out. But the OG, it works pretty well. My friend has the SoundPEATS and both are pretty good. I think the SoundPEATS has volume control whereas the Liberty Air doesn't. I got mine for ~ $70, paid the extra $20 over SoundPEATs b/c it's Anker. Call audio is great, I frequently use mine for that purpose. However, I've heard that while the mic picks up my voice well (and strongly), it has a tin sounding noise to it. I'm not sure how to describe it because it's what my gf described to me.

I just bought a pair of Sony WF-1000XM3 earbuds at cost and they're amazing... These are basically Apple Airpods on steroids. I value noise cancelling and these are as good as it gets, but it may be out of your price range.

found them on sale for 150 at the source and i don't think i would pay anymore than that unless they were truly Audiophile

pretty happy with them,dropped one in water in the sink by mistake but thankfully just letting it air dry out overnight it worked again..it "was" dead when wet :heckno:
good luck on you're hunt for some headphones,it's something i never cheap out on if i know i'm gonna use it long term & use hard.



there's so a small independent shop in Vancouver that sells headphones in all price ranges and high end stuff https://headphonebar.com/collections/bluetooth

Just ordered a pair from amazon for $37.99 same day delivery they were $42.99 with a $5.00 off coupon. I actually ordered them for my son since I've claimed his wireless beats and have been using them at the gym, he won't want them back. :)

I have some cheap JBL e25bt that I've been using for my commute to and from downtown everyday for the last year and a half and they have been awesome. Like yourself, I have been through a couple nicer pairs, some cheap pairs, and after reading some reviews I thought I'd give these a shot. They were $30USD on amazon when I bought them.

my phone came with those bluetooth samsung buds or something or other. I really like them. But retail they are very expensive, and if i had to pay retail for it, i probably wouldn't.

When i was looking around. Those kept coming upi eventually got Powerbeats Pro. Great for being used while being active. Ears got uncomfortable when wearing around the house after 1.5 hours.

Thanks guys, based on the posts here I felt comfortable getting the SoundPEATS.

They do work pretty well, sounds quality seems good enough for me, the same as the stock samsung buds I was using before.

Only thing I'm struggling with and getting used to now is the fit. The left ear bud always seems like it wants to fall out, I've tried every size tip that it came with.
I'll use them for a while and if they end up driving me nuts I'll trade them for something with an ear clip

any recommendations for over the ear headphones with mic for cellphone calls?

^jabra is my go to. you do get what you pay for
7 hr battery life
i'm happy.
