The pair i ordered three weeks ago is already randomly pausing and changing volume. It seems like in the past year every brand of wired earbuds has completely given up on quality control. Does anyone know of a pair that I won't have to buy again in march?
KBeaand KZ make good cheap earbuds that look like iems kind-of, and have a seperate cable to buy if that gets damaged.
They're very similar designs and I think KZ got caught putting in non-functional extra speakers in their buds to lie about quality and not get caught immediately when someone opened up their earbuds. Although I bought the 20usd model of theirs and like mine that have lasted a while.
I have no experience with KBear but just saw that they're good too.
Both brands have stuff under 30usd
