Soundpeats Q30 HD

Does the job – My specs were pretty simple: wireless earbuds with cord-and-clip safety feature (as I had no wish to be fumbling round in my hands and knees looking for dropped earbuds), decent sound and use per (fairly quick) charge, at a reasonable price. My son did some research and ordered me a pair of SoundPEATS from Amazon, and one for himself. Pairing them to my iPhone via Bluetooth was simple and intuitive. The audio (for me) was decent as I use it mainly to listen to audio books while I’m gardening, cleaning or cooking. Volume control and a mic on the safety wire made it easy to turn the volume up / down and answer phone calls while using. The clip was handy to fasten onto my top to keep it secure.

When not in use, the earbuds had magnetic backs that secured them together, and a zipped hard case to pop them into, together with the charging wire. To charge them I usually stick them into the USB port on my MacAir overnight.

Only Con? They’re boring black.
