I'm one of the few who can't get Samsung's buds, AKG earpiece or any other similarly shaped to fit in my ears. They hurt me and never stay in anyway. Apart from springing for expensive airpods, what other options are available that are shaped like airpods?

check amazon and there are too much wireless air buds less than 50$
for me as i have Samsung airbuds and AKG , i will try Huawei free buds 3 that come with noise cancelling ...its about 160$
 
I find the Jabra Elite 65t comfortable enough for sleeping and with excellent sound.
 
Anker Soundcore Liberty Neo true wireless earbuds are great for a cheaper pair. Great sound, nice fit, and I think they look good. $50 on Amazon

Thanks everyone for your replies. Only the Huawei freebuds match what I'm looking for. The pointy ends of the anker soundcore and jabra are similar to the buds. They are extremely uncomfortable for me and never stay in my ears.

I use Bose Soundsport Free (though I also use the Galaxy Buds which came with my S10+). It's more or less shaped like my ears and the sound quality is second to none. But they are $170, so not all that much cheaper than Airpods...
 
I have some Jabra elite 65t buds and I love them. Comfortable, excellent sound. The new 75ts are not worth the price increase in my opinion for a few minor tweaks.

I have the 75t and had the 65t before and must admit that I think the 75t are much nicer, smaller case that doesn't need a crowbar to open and basically a full workday of battery in the buds alone, I find the sound of them better as well but that could be because they fit my ears way better, they're a good bit smaller as well
 
I'm using the Plantronics Backbeat Pro 5100 and I love them they are way better than the jabras for phone calls they are great in noisy environments

IM currently rocking the sony wf 1000x. Last year, I tried the Jabra elite 65t for a couple of days but it wasnt comfortable at all, more less painful to keep in my ear more than an hour. Loved the features tho. I traded that in for samsung icon x. Loved it, very comfortable, but the rubber material started to wear down over time. One thing about samsung and their small devices, they dont hold up well over time. IM specifically speaking about their ear buds and watches. They have excellent technology but crappy hardware, in their smaller devices.

I had the wf1000 but they kept disconnecting. I ended up getting the Jabra elite 75t. The new fit is comfortable and at least I don't have to worry about sweat or rain wearing these. But the Sony's did sound good.
 
The Huawei Freebuds are the best choice if you want that shape of TWS earphones without buying the "popular" brand.

The WF-1000XM3 is very weak against radiation...
 
I'm excited after hear the sound off liberty pro 2 ,they sound amazing ,my buddy even has airpods pro and these things blow everything out the water when it comes to sound and battery ,call quality is decent not bad and not as good as airpods pro for voice quality the mics are not as good , but still for a fraction of the price these things are amazing way louder ,and cleaner sound bass, treble and all. After playing with them and testing the them I ordered mine's on the spot waiting for sat delivery from Amazon
 
Good deal on a set of AKG Y500 wireless headphones...
The deal here is to install Samsung Members app, then register your Samsung phone and then you will find a 50% discount code to use on selected Samsung Accessories before 19th December making the headset £64.50, then there is also a £30 cashback offer on these to be used by 25th December making these headphones £34.50. I purchased these a couple of months back and got them using the 50% code and they were a steal at £64.50. Ok they are not perfect but for this price they are a great buy.

UK deal so not sure if it applies to other countries.
