What other option besides AKG and Samsung buds?

[nonie]

Any one used these?

The Huawei Freebuds are the best choice if you want that shape of TWS earphones without buying the "popular" brand.

True. Thanks

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?

I've found, over the years, that buds in my ears both block out important external sounds (like car horns, or while skiing, someone screaming "look out I can't stop") and make my tinnitus worse. I've started using Aftershokz wireless bone conduction headphones. They're "near" the ears/around the back of the neck/under the hair, and don't fall off/out. https://aftershokz.com/collections/wireless

How are the Plantronics with music?

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

I just read this review this morning. These earbuds are getting good reviews.

I'm impressed they are pretty good no complaints. I wish they had equalizer settings to adjust them how I would like but I'm satisfied with them the way they are

They should've had a hear through mode as well.

But when I put both in and volume all the way up I can't hear anything else and music is loud

I'm surprised these buds aren't getting more attention they've been great

My daughter has the Galaxy Buds, and she loves them.

Update: I got the Galaxy Ear Buds and love them.

They are replacing Bose Soundsport Free Wireless ear buds.

They sound really good and are much more comfortable to wear.

Are you looking for a wired replacement for the AKGs or a Bluetooth option? Many have given you ideas for Bluetooth so I'll offer one for wired.

I have the EXACT same issues that you do and a couple of months ago I bought 6 or 7 different BT options and returned all but one.

As for the best fit for wired, I actually really like the wired Google Pixel Buds that came packaged with my Pixel 3, though many people done like these. --Wired Apple buds also work well for me with a USB-C dongle as they are far more comfortable than the ones that you have to shove into your ear canal.

The Pixel Buds are a slightly different design but they work just as well--with one exception. They can feel uncomfortable if you yank them out quickly but other than that, I actually really like them, and they don't go into your ear canal. They're pretty cheap ($25-30) and the sound is good for the price range--and I use high-end wired audio headphones for detailed listening on other devices.

Hope this helps!
