Bluetooth ear buds

[Andrew1972]

Anyone have a real favorite on ear buds that are wireless. I like the ones included with iPhone 7 however that pesky wire gets snagged when I do things outside.

I'll spend up to the money for Air Pods($140) if I have to but wondering if there is something out there that stays in okay, decent battery life and is easy to connect?

The new samsung ones are pretty good, this is a pay to play item though..

if your budget is $300 there are better options than at $129 etc.

I'd stay away from all the under $80 options they all seem to be flawed and junk in one way or another.

Ha! My hearing aids are bluetooth ear buds. Work great, connect to phone, TV, external mic, etc

The Aukey Latitude EP-B40 are a great set of everyday wireless headphones. The sound quality is good, they connect easily, battery life isn't bad and they have a great magnetic clip that allows you to wear them like a necklace. They're cheap as dirt on Amazon and have a 24 month warranty.

For truly wireless, Airpods if you have an iPhone or Galaxy Buds if you have an Android. I have the Galaxy Buds, they sound great, pair easily but pulling one out of your ear means sticking it back in the case or risk losing it. With the Aukey, I can dangle it around my neck or clip it to the other.

Got a pair of Bose ones a few years ago as a Christmas gift at work. There's a wire connecting the 2 buds together, but they're wireless to the phone. Gave them to my wife, who is notoriously AWFUL with electronics, and she hasn't managed to break them yet. Though they are starting to fall apart.

How bad is she? Lightning cables last 6 months at most and she somehow cracked the lens of her iPhone 7 camera.
