Hi! Can anyone speak from experience to what non-airpod wireless headphones are best/most comfortable/most seamless to use? In the under 1-man range.
Not looking for anything mind-blowing, just want something cheaper and functional and would love to hear a bit of other people’s experiences rather than buying a pair blind. Thank you!

I have a pair of maxell mxh-btw510. I use them while exercising. They were really cheap. I like them but they do start to feel loose sometimes.
It seems you don’t care about sound quality, so get any cheaper copy of these “Q-Tip earphones”.
I have Jabra Elite (mine are 75T but there is another model with good reviews on Amazon for 9000 yen) and they’ve been great.
Easy to use, but with an app if you want more control.
Probably Anker soundcore
Tozo T6 on amazon. Like 3k-5k and theyre amazing
Sonys stuff has a good tech stack and some interesting options, tho I use the expensive ones
I wouldn’t recommend the Nothing Ear 1 earbuds.
I was quite disappointed with them and the glitches that the noise cancelling seems to cause.
I got some Soundpeats Air 3 for around ¥6k and they work great. They’re comfortable, the sound quality is fine, and I haven’t had trouble with them disconnecting.
Only downside is I haven’t been able to get them to function as a mic despite being compatible, though I’m chalking that up to my
iPhone not being Japanese.
I bought the Earfun Air Pro 3, self charging box, and full active noise cancellation. They got good reviews and so I gave them a go. Highly recommended.
The Bluetooth chip is quality brand Qualcomm and latest version. I’ve used both Android and iPhone phones with them and not had any problems with sound lagging video.
They’re currently on 20% off at Amazon for 7200 yen.
Beat Fit Pro work as great ear buds for music and the occasional phone call (as long as it is not too noisy). ANR works very well. Maybe not the greatest for running, at least for my ear shape — they fall out with exercise.
My favorite is the Jabra Evolve 75e. It is a neck band type wireless headset but the battery life is amazing and the noise cancelling (and passthrough) is phenomenal. My go to headset for phone and conference calls.
I usually carry both and swap between them depending on the need.
I have some noise cancelling ones from Audio Technica that I really like.
I have the Sony [WF-C500](https://www.sony.jp/headphone/products/WF-C500/) and I really like them. Never had them go out of sync with each other or drop connection or anything.
Tribit Flybuds 3. About ¥4000. Sound is acceptable, and the battery is huge. I’ve charged them twice since December and use them 2-3 hours per day.
Sound quality and battery life wise, the Lypertek Z3 (used to be called Tevi) is fantastic. It’s got a very wide soundstage, IPx7 waterproofing, and roughly 80 hours of battery life including the case.
Galaxy Buds Pro are pretty good, you can find it around 10K used on e-earphone’s site.
I love my Sony xm4s, but why not pop into e-earphone and try a bunch yourself
