Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds Recommendations @ Amazon - GoFuckYourself.com

HairyChick · 02-06-2019, 07:47 PM

Got a birthday gift card for Amazon, $25.00. I need wireless earbuds as my headphone jack on iPad isn’t working.

Two hours in and I can’t decide which one to buy. Anker has some and name brands are preferable. 4+ stars, Prime, under $25 with charging cable and storage case. I need all of those included. Any suggestions?

I would prefer a pair without the neck piece and just a wire connecting them.

I take reviews seriously and if mostly good but a few issues due to shipping, expected run time or charge time doesn’t matter. I have a usb wall charger so that’s not an issue.

Prime shipping so I can order tomorrow and receive on Saturday or Monday.

Not interested in single earbuds.

Thanks

I heard good things about the mPow ones. They look cheap but then again what do you want for $17?

I'threw my Plantronics Voyager Legend in the garbage yesterday. Just too noisy and unreliable. I'm currently using a stereo logitec headset which works well but is too bulky, a little slow to connect, low battery life and ... bah. I want something more elegant and high tech. I'm going to buy some Apple Earpods when the new version is released this spring.

GRDE Official Website

I can personally recommend the GRDE GL09 earbuds. I bought a pair about a year ago and really liked them. Unfortunately, they got soaked in a British rainstorm and stopped working, so I got another identical pair.

A Month or so later, I was about to throw out the ones that had got wet, but they had started working again, so now I have a spare pair.

Very comfy fit, stays in the ear, good sound and long battery life - Cheap as chips too.

PS: I know you said $25 and the ones in my link are like $26, but the same earbuds are available from a different seller for about $16 on amazon if you search GRDE GL09 earbuds

Thank you both. I looked at both recommendations and went with mPow. Initially I wanted the GRDE but no warranty is noted. The mPow has an 18-month warranty and since they’re cheap, they might not last. For eighteen months I’ll have working earbuds.

The charging cable is provided. Many earbuds don’t include them which is dumb. Add two bucks to the price and include them.

No case but I’ll use a sticky hook on the wall next to my bed. At least that problem is solved.

Thanks again

I'd like to know also. I have yet to find a pair that doesn't piss me off.

Beats are shit. Mine stopped working after 2 months.

My beats solo wireless still work but the volume up and down stopped working after a few mos.

I had a pair of wired beats for 3 years that still work today but the earpiece material was falling off

Fair play in your choice, but the GRDE also have the same 18 months warranty. Its not from amazon, but from GRDE themselves - GRDE Official Website
