I posted recently about buying some gadgets with Steem Dollars. One of those items was a set of VAVA Bluetooth earbuds (I can't find a link apart from Amazon). These are my first wireless earphones and I've not used those that push into the ear canal much before.
I'm still getting used to them. They come with various sizes of tips and hooks. I'm using the smallest tips, but I'm still finding the best way to get them to fit well. The hooks hold them in too. I haven't run with them yet, but I feel they would be secure. It's going to depend a lot on the shape of your ears. I don't find them totally comfortable, but I'm persisting with them. Has anyone found that push in earbuds take a while to adjust to? You need a good fit to get the best audio quality, but I'm mostly listening to podcasts, so that's not too critical.
Technically they seem fine. Pair them with your phone and they just work with no extra noise or interference. They have magnets to join them when not in use so they can just hang around your neck. Battery life is several hours at least. I've not run them right down yet.
I can still hear what is going on around me and that's the way I like it. When walking or running you need that. I haven't maxed out the volume. I just don't need that and I value my hearing.
I picked these as the price (£23) seemed reasonable and they got good reviews (if those can be trusted).
I saw someone today with the Apple buds that have no wire between them. Those look too easy to lose. These at least have a clip you can use on your shirt to be extra safe. They are not so expensive that I would worry too much anyway.
What's in your ears?
I'll buy guitar picks for Steem Dollars
