I bought these wireless headphones in mid-2022 headphones for using with all of my favourite adventure sports – such as bikepacking, hiking, and gym work however hate getting tangled up in our headphone cables.

 

They’re not waterproof and don’t claim to be, however they handle my sweaty heads for many months without complaint.

 

They’re highly affordable, coming in at under £40 (especially when compared to big brand name wireless in-ear headphones) and the sound quality is superb. I particularly like listening to podcasts and audio books when I head out on the gravel bike after a long day on the computer.

 

Utilising Bluetooth to connect to your phone, they charge using a micro-USB cable that comes supplied with them and are ready to use once you’ve figured out how to pair them. With a power button and volume controls, they’re sophisticated enough to increase the adventure without getting overly complicated having to manage them. Also, If you lose them, they’re only a relatively small price to get some new ones.

 

Furthermore, if you’re using your phone to navigate on a cycling trip, it’ll free you up from being tangled up for when you’re moving around the bike. Saving countless swear words!

 

The one downside is that that the colour seems to be scuffing off parts of the plastic case, however at such an affordable price, I’m more than happy to live with that small issue.
