Apple have never made good earphones imo. They have always been hot garbage that don't even hold up to constant use.

I bought some budget Aukey wireless earphones a couple years ago from Linus' video, they sounded fantastic for the price and still work like new.

I would suggest looking into the following:

Audio-technica m50xbt

JBL E50BT (my personal drivers, wearing them rn)

m50 is some hot garbage if you want portable grab a pair of m40x's and some new pads from brainwavez

yea im aware but the normal m50x is a lot more money and has an odd sound signature, m40s are not bt but unless your hell bent on cutting cords id go with something that sounds better for less money

okay... let's forget the m50xbt for a minute then...

 

Do you have anything against the e50bt?

I want the AirPod design, earbud maybe? I don’t know what it’s called. But I don’t want over-ear headphones. I want something as small as the AirPods and wireless like them. Sorry if I explained it poorly

You aren't giving yourself much option. Generally wireless earphones that use the AirPod design just suck.

I guess... Maybe I'm just being biased because I'm easily pleased with my £25 earphones. In my experience you can't really go wrong with Sennheiser, their products are solid, Bose are great but charge a pretty penny just to have the name.

Having one wire connecting the two isn't bad, hanging them round your neck is convenient and generally the cable is too short to tangle and isn't very prone to damage.

I also just can't ever justify spending huge amounts on earphones ?

I'd recommend the AKG Y50BT wireless. Good noise cancelling, can be paired with two devices simultaneously, long battery life, pretty light, nice design (personal taste), good audio quality, included microphone, can work wired as well, quickly charged. You can find it for ~ $200, though prices can vary.
