Was doing some research and not many reviews on amazon but they all seem to say they stop pairing together. But then the pic on amazon is different from the site. What say you?
Anything I've ever bought from Monoprice is top notch, it's somehow one of those 'hidden' gem websites still. I bought my wife the previous version earbuds and she loves them. She's a cheapskate like you. If you're buying from there throw in some cables too. Their warranties are great. They replaced a year old iPhone cable for me, no returns needed.
I'm assuming you meant airpods instead of airbuds? If so, do they want something that looks aesthetically like airpods?
For those that run, do these little bitty wireless buds actually stay in your ears while running? I've only ever bought the wired buds that have the over the ear little hook thing, which it seems none of these have. I've never gotten them because I assumed they wouldn't stay in my ear for an hour of running.
I have a pair of the sony WF-800n and they do a solid job of staying in. While they never fall out they do loosen a little bit but the audio is still strong. a light tap and the seal is strong and the bass is good. I have a pair of pixel buds which i really like. they are so light weight and you barely know they are there and i like that they barely stick out. they stay put for the most part but they start to loosen as i chew food so I don't think they would be good for runs. I'm a heavy runner (not light on my feet) so others might have better luck. As it is I use the sony's for running and working out and the pixel buds for everyday use since they are small and attach to my keychain.
Yes talking about airpods. They wanted airpods last year and with kids if it's not apple everything else is fake. But for 20 bucks and since everybody else makes them I would take a chance.
What do y'all think of the FIIL T1X earbuds? They seem to get great reviews (youtube reviews are very positive).
When I looked at them on Amazon the seller is listed as "wukanUS" and that seller only had 6 reviews in the last 12 months. Too sketchy for me. Really, their photos look exactly like dozens of other cheap Chinese earbuds. So I am skeptical. But the brand name sounds familiar - I think I have heard decent things about them as well.
Monoprice is the ****. Always had a really good experience with them. They're definitely a hidden gem.
I love my Jabra Active 65T. They go on sale for damn good prices occasionally. Bought a few pairs for ~$45 a piece on newegg. They were refurb by the manufacturer, and came with a two year warranty.
I have the 75T jabras and the sennheiser momentum’s. The latter are only marginally better for 200+ $
Neither Jabras nor anything associated with Sennheiser are considered "budget" lol. Not sure what the OP's budget is, but Walmart's black friday sale has 2nd gen Airpods for $99. Idk, man. Gimme a basketball-playing Golden Retriever any day.
