wireless earphones

[Ciccioo]

i recently came to know about the existence of bluetooth earphones, and from the first moment i keep seeing them as a piece of fantastic magic that puts music in your ears out of nowhere

i only know about the Jaybird BlueBuds X Sport, and it seems like an a bit expensive product with a good quality and a ton of convenience

 

what's your take on it? do you like wireless earphones? do you own a pair? can i find better values for a similar product out there?

i also usually have problems wearing in-ears, am i the only one? can that be adressed?

for your problem wearing them, its a matter of quality(price) and choices for the tips

should go in a store or something to look for my right size/shape? or is it just about good quality vs bad quality?

I see Wireless earphones the same way you doo, and  I get incredibly frustated with the earphone cord getting curled up and acting wonky when im wearing my messenger bag. If you want to find cheap wireless earphones here is one from amazon, i've not bought this, because even though they are cheap I dont have enought money to spend on it.  http://goo.gl/xvVVpK

Wireless headphone/earphone/speakers don't have the same quality as others in the same class, but with cord. For one, the wireless feature cost quite a lot. So with the same budget, you'd get better quality wired ones. 

 

Second, even if money/budget isn't a problem, the best wireless headphone/earphone/speakers still not good enough compared to their corded counterparts. That's why the best/most expensive headphones/earphones/speakers still use cords. 

 

Third, battery problem. When the battery dies, you can't use your headphone. When the battery worn out (won't hold a decent charge), then it's bricked, unless you could find a way to get a replacement battery somewhere, and have the skill/pay a technician to change it for you.

 

They're designed for people who are willing to get the comfort of wireless in exchange of quality and durability.

i already have a pair of good wired headphones which i use when i'm home and i want real quality

the use scenario i see for these wireless earphones is for when i go outside, take a walk or run, or when i just need them for talking at the phone while driving

in those scenarios, getting the best sound quality is not the major factor for me

 

regarding battery life, i hope and think that battery technology reached a level at which we can have guaranteed quite a lot of charging cycles

that's at least what i would expect if i decided to buy those 150€ earphones

they're also advertised and reviewed with a battery life of about 8 hours, so i think that a single charge would last me several days on average, and the less the charges, the longer the battery lifetime

didnt Linus review a pair not long ago, dont remember the name of it now, but worth looking into, i think he said some good stuff about them, otherwise i would go with a good pair of headphones that fit snugly on your head and a hoodie to keep them on your head while running

 

I use my V-Moda Crossfade M-100 when i go out for walk, i also used them when i tore down a house for hearing protections and they sat on me great (used a tighter hoodie tho)

Well, go for it then....

 

Among the bluetooth, there are some big names, but the one I remember is Denon. It's supposed to be quite good, considering...
