Anyone got any recommendations? The headphone port on my phone is crapping out and I've got music taking up space that I'd like to listen to. Someone told me that about £20 is a balance between quality and price.
 
I got some cheap in hmv krace or something , bout 15 quid , battery life isn't great but the sound is good , IL try n find them if I remember when sober tomorrow ☺
 
My SoundPEATS QY7 headphones have just packed up after two years service so need a new set. Thinking I might move away from the 'in-ear' type this time but nothing too bulky :hmm:
 
Look at this fella on the tram now. Apart from his superb upper arm definition, what are these teeny tiny wireless earphones he's got on??

I'd have asked him but I fancied him a bit much to make my words work. :(

Apple AirPods - overpriced and dont sound good enough to even begin to justify the price apparently.

I bought these by accident, wasn't after a neckband type affair, but I actually really like em, rarely have them off from round my neck! No faffin with a spaghetti of wires, just pop em in and they stay in. And in jaunty green too, wmcyaf?
 
got some bose uns a year o so ago @ 1£50 or so- battery life is OK but seems to drop one a week or so and I have to clear devices and remap, the blutoof is far better quality that cable but not as loud. Oh yes, make sure you can use a cable for when the headphone battery is dead- not sure if all BT phones allow this. they doesnt arf leak though, so its a sure fire way to fuck everyone off on their already stressful commute
 
My wired earbuds broke over the weekend... so I got a new pair of wireless ones which are great so far..
The Skullcandy Ink'd £30
Please note the design, the bit that goes around your neck is probably the best advantage of these earbuds, the controls weigh down the front part so it doesn't keep slipping back and tugging the earbuds out, yet its so light you hardly know you are wearing it.
You can remove one or both buds without losing them as the are stored safely around your neck. The controls being within the neckband allows for a longer battery time and bigger buttons.
I just wish they made the neck bit look like jewellery for the ultimate in technology wearables :) Please ... someone do this... I want it!

nahhhhhhhh they are great... I am using them now for editing in premiere.
What did the bad reviews say?
 
I have these- Skullcandy uproar wireless - I think they are great for the money - £22- dropped in price.4375610_sd.jpg
But think I might have to go for some crusher headphones where by you can really feel the bass.

I've had those for almost a year, they fit me better than any in ear headphones I've ever had - only headphones I've has which don't even fall out when I run.

As they're a right fit they block out a lot of outside noise so the sound quality seems great (even though it probably isn't *actually* great, it's not starting from a point of clashing so much with background noise).

Battery isn't too bad, gets a few hours no problems .

For twenty quid they are a fantastic buy IMHO

I've got these as well. The bass is pretty good for a inear headphone and comfortable for me to wear.

I'm not a massive fan of the crushers that I bought and wished that I got something else. While the bass is really cool, the sound quality isn't great. It's a bit of a novelty.
 
Don't wish to sound like an Apple fan but Airpods really are the best earphones I've ever owned on balance between comfort, sound, battery life, portability and ease of use.

I've got this pair which is practically identical but has the AptX codec, which I would look out for on products as it does make a difference, and there's plenty which are identical or cheaper price.

aptX - Wikipedia

Sadly the pair I have seem to have gone end of life.
