Tech Purchase Thread
-
The Apple watch was a success so I have started a tech purchase thread.
I now need wireless headphones (Not the massive bhuttie ones, more the in ear ones)They need to be able to stay in when running/at the gym etc etc. So this counts out the Apple version as they are a bit rubbish in this case.
Looking to use flybuy points and there are some Bose ones. When younger Bose was top of the pile but are they still??
Any recommmendations will be gratefully received

Two come to mind:
- Jaybird Run True Wireless Sport In-Ear Headphones
- Jabra Elite Active 65t Wireless Earbuds
The Jabra's are more expensive (by about +50%)
The problem with them both is neither do USB-C charging. Which pisses me right off.
If you can wait and trust the internet, there's these: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/eoz-air-world-s-most-advanced-wireless-earphones-headphones#/

I'm put off by the wireless sports because they're so big. I already have a heart rate monitor and GPS watch etc, I see no need for headphones to be oversized, compromise on battery life and driver size to accommodate a heart rate monitor.

Get a pair of these and test them for me. I like the idea of ambient sound mode.

@bones those (types) ones annoy me when running with the volume controller part flapping about.
Plenty like that sold as sports ones, but they suck.

@taniwharugby good point. Plus I'm impressed at your attempt to get us talking about your flaps.
