Bluetooth earphones?

Can anyone recommend good Bluetooth ear buds. When mine work they are great, they were very cheap, but they keep losing signal/cutting out. This is driving me mad and spoiling runs. Would investing in expensive ones be better?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I use AfterShokz Aeropex. They’re not cheap but they’re effective and very lightweight. I can wear my glasses too without any problems, and with them being bone-conducting I can still hear traffic and everything else going on around me. I hope that helps.

Hmm I invested in some Anker soundcore liberty neo earphones which were fab - until one fell out, never to be found! Of course you can use just one, but it's not the same. So yesterday I ordered some Aftershokz aeropex having read on here that people like them, and after doing my own internet research. They should arrive tomorrow, can't wait 😄 happy running🏃‍♀️🏃💥

Hi Dobby, well I braved the weather this morning, keen to use the new Aftershokz. They are very comfy, can't feel them at all, perhaps not the best hi fi quality but good enough. Pleased I've got them as I know I won't lose them. So I say go for it!😄 Happy new tier as HeavyFoot says!

Hey Blossom, good to hear, I will def go for these. Went out yesterday but waited until ice had gone...time for ear muffs I think! Happy New year

Another vote for Aftershokz - I wear them to run, when gardening & any occasion that I want to listen to something, but need to avoid disturbing other people. 😄

Aftershokz Titanium for me, and like David_G’s, they are bone conduction so you can still hear what is going on around you. Mine are cheapest in the range but do everything I need of them. These also come in a mini size which is good for smaller heads eg ladies or juveniles.

Thanks, I have been looking at them, bit expensive but I'm sure they are worth it. Mine are driving me nuts! Does it stay were it should behind your head or slip down?

Yes, no movement at all. Do shop around online as they are sometimes on offer.

And you can skip tracks and phone people by using voice dial , they’re great 😊

😅 maybe a bit tricky for me, all my efforts go into tying to run!

Another vote for the Aftershokz. One thing I'd recommend against is getting earpods with no wire between them. Others have had them drop out of their ears only to be lost into the undergrowth.
