Bluetooth headphones??
I bought some of those little Bluetooth earbud things and have been using them in the last week but I can’t get the little buggers to stay in my ears!!! Have a similar problem with the hard Apple ones
Can anyone recommend some Bluetooth headphones- either ear buds with a connecting wire (so I don’t lose one when it falls out of my ear) or with hooks/loops so they don’t fall out?
Ideally not industrial things, something light and suitable for walking maybe. I’ve not worn earphones skiing or biking, but wouldn’t mind having them with me for when I stop
I’ve got one of those stupid iPhones without a 3.5mm jack and it seems the lightening socket doesn’t like headphones (or the multi lightening/3.5mm plug thing )
Help - these current things are driving me nuts!!!

Re: Bluetooth headphones??
I've got a pair of these and they are very good for the money -
You insert in your ear and then rotate them 180 degrees, they then sit within your ear so they don't fall out....

Do ears have a screw thread? Are they both right hand threads or one of each?v8-powered wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 2:54 pm I've got a pair of these and they are very good for the money -

Re: Bluetooth headphones??
Awesome, will see if I can get them on amazon.fr!!
Definitely can't spend 200€ on anything at the mo!! LOLinewham wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 1:55 pm I have some nura loops and think they're fantastic. https://www.nuraphone.com/products/nuraloop
However they are £200 and the first generation firmware had issues so you'll read plenty of over the top negative reviews but I've neve had any issues and they've only got better with the new firmware.
Very similar to the ones I have that keep falling outv8-powered wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 2:54 pm I've got a pair of these and they are very good for the money -

Re: Bluetooth headphones??
In ear (AKA earphones) I use Anker ones, less than £20, the two are connected, I've used them while snowboarding, but I do have a snood thingy over them holding them in place, same when I cycle.
Over ear (AKA headphones) I have KS harlem, paid about £40 on the ferry, a lot more comfortable than the in ears, though they do make my ears sweat on hot days.

If you can't look at SkullCandy.
Neither are going to give you high fidelity sound but both work well enough

I 've got a bluetooth hearing aid and just connect it to the sound source via the little phone clip dongle. People think I am listening to them when I am actually away with Faure's Requiem mass or Dire Straight's Brother in Arms album.

One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend.
