I'm looking to buy a pair of earbuds for my daily 1-mile walk to and from the office. I had been using a pair of headphones with the collar you wear on your neck but got annoyed with it and the cords so I ended up tossing it. I have little to no interest in the apple airpods, the regular design doesn't fit my ear very well, and the pro version is way to expensive for what you get.
I'd love to find something under $100. I see a lot of cheapo buds in the $50 range that have decent reviews, but if I'm buying something like that I'd prefer a personal recommendation.
I have the JBL endurance sprints, bought a set for the wife. I'm a fat lazy fuck and use them to work in the garage, take walks, sit in a treestand, etc. very low impact things, and they work perfect.
My wife does a kickboxing thing and a somewhat violent workout circuit and she likes them too.
i think i got both of ours for like 45 bucks each.
These are really good. Somehow, I got them on sale for like $20-$30. Currently at $50. Not sure you can get good/comfortable true wireless buds in your price range.

Something like these would fit the bill for what I'm looking for, I think.
I'd mainly be using them for listening to audiobooks/podcasts, not music, so sound quality isn't necessarily my top priority. As long as they don't sound like complete crap.
I've had decent luck with Aukey devices (I think I've owned one or two of their products) in the past, and these have good reviews.
These also look decent for $40. Anker is a solid brand.

I have the Bose ones that are like those. They were a gift. The sound is great, but I feel like they are really unstable in my ears. I use them for golf mostly but I feel if I ran or worked out with them in, they would fall out.
I also have these, which are corded, but Bluetooth. Sound is pretty good

They're not earbuds (earbuds never, ever stay in my ears), but I've been using these for a few years and absolutely love them. The fact that the frame is solid holds the pieces in your ears really well, but the fact that it's so lightweight lets it rest against my hair/head without becoming irritating.
I don't like earbuds. I got these. Best headphones I've ever used.
