Perfectly Fine Headphones for Walking and Listening to Music
I'd resisted the wireless headphone trend for as long as possible, preferring the regular 3.5mm jack. Unfortunately, iPhone thought it would be a good idea to get rid of the headphone jack altogether. I disagree with this decision, but I don't make phones, so... I used regular wired headphones with a connector thingy to be able to plug it into my phone for a while. That worked fine, except for the fact that the connectors would inevitably stop working after a while. So I went through many of those. Then one day, my phone stopped working with connectors. No matter what I did, the volume would go back to zero and I couldn't use the headphones at all. So finally I decided to get wireless headphones, even though I once heard it's like the equivalent of putting a microwave in each of your ears. Oh well, it's 2026 and wifi and 5G and whatever else is all over the place. But then I had to go down the rabbit hole of finding headphones that were worth it. I didn't want super expensive or fancy wireless headphones for listening to music with my phone. I have over-ear Sony headphones that I use for recording and sound editing, I just really needed something to listen to music on my phone with while going for a walk. Reading reviews was frustrating and took me all over the place. Finally I decided to go with my gut and just order these. They're fine. I'm a bit of a sound snob and I need bass. These are fine. They fit well enough and comfortable enough in my ears. They don't get as loud as I would prefer, but that's probably a good thing. The bass is decent. The overall sound feels balanced for the most part. They hold a charge for a long time, too. I've only charged the case once since I bought them a couple months ago and I don't even know if they were close to needing a charge. I only really use them when I go for a walk around the neighborhood. I use them to listen to music and have not tried to use them for a call or anything. They seem easy to use, though admittedly I don't care to be bothered to learn what all the various tap combinations do. I put them in my ears, they automatically pair with my phone after the initial pairing, and I use the controls on my phone for volume and track changes. This works for me. They are fine. I do not think ANY wireless headphones have the sound quality of wired headphones, so these are fine. The sound is fine. I'm not like, "oh wow! these are amazing!" but I am happily listening to tunes as the soundtrack to my walks. I like how they fit in the case and its easy enough to throw them in my purse. I almost dropped one once, and I did not like that feeling of not being able to catch them with a cord but, that's me. I will say it is nice not to have to deal with the cord in terms of it being in the way while walking around or getting tangled in a purse. I have no idea about the water resistance because that's not something I deal with while wearing headphones. In terms of noise cancellation... it's not something I've really noticed, but now that I think about it I don't really notice the sound of the traffic/cars on the street while I am walking. This may or may not be a good thing. But I am happy with them. For the price, I am happy with them. For the sound, I am happy with them. For the purpose of walking while listening to music, I am happy with them. If you are also going down the rabbit hole of reviews trying to find basic earbuds for music listening purposes, I do suggest getting these and saving yourself any more frustration. They're not perfect, they're not incredible, but they are just fine.Ver másVer menos
