 So apparently I’ve lost my Bose over ear headphones somehow. Can’t seem to find em anywhere.
I’m afraid I’ll have to buy a new pair.

😔 

What kind of headphones or earbuds do people on #nostr recommend? Are airpods worth it?

 Marshall major mids. I have the iv’s which I really like. But they’ve realised the v’s recently. Great value for money. 
 omg I used to have those! Not sure if I still have em anywhere tho, they’re on-ear right? 
 Yes they are. They have in ears but never used them. 
 I have AirPods, they're good, but I'm not an audiophile.

I like them because they seamlessly connect and switch between Apple devices without any effort.

If I'm on a flight, however, I'll use a pair of unbranded, ear covering headphones to effectively cancel the external noise. 
 I know apple products tend to be good, but somehow I feel these airpods are way overpriced 😅. I mean, apple is always overpriced, but it works like a charm. 
 Of course overpriced, that goes without saying 😂  
 Haha but inside the apple ecosystem, I can understand it works flawlessly, still I feel like I don’t wanna pay 180€ for in ear headphones 😅 
 I bought these in 2017 for around €70

They are better headphones than my AirPods, but they don’t switch flawlessly between devices:

 I just use the basic Sony over ears ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ 
 Do they have noise cancelling? 
 Not the ones I have, they're v basic. But good enough. Especially for someone who often breaks things lol:) 
 I like my "nothing ear (2)" - good sound and they come with ChatGPT built in 😉 
 Thats in-ear right? 
 Yes, like the apple buds 
 I’m in love with my B&O BeoplayEx for music on the way. 
Had AirPods that I losted and they are not even close to B&O.

 Holy shit those are expensive 😅 
 But sounds best for me 😓 But yeah, I should rather buy more satoshi back in the days 🫢 
 I truly believe they will sound amazing! B&O is awesome, but man, expensive 
 Soundcore (anker) ftw 🤠🤙 
 Is that the same anker as the battery packs?
