I got some Chinese AirPod knock-offs. For around 20 bucks they work pretty OK - only problem is the battery that only last for about 2.5 hours. But I will probably go back to ones with cable - don’t want to charge another device.

Where did you buy them?

Buddy brought them over from a trip to China but there are dozens of similar variants sold on eBay and Amazon.

He also brought a fitness watch but that was absolute garbage - battery lasted less than a day and it broke within 2 weeks.

The headphones are in daily use now for over a year - so can’t complain bang for the buck. It’s definitely not comparable in quality to headsets costing 100+ bucks but for EDC in the city they are good enough and so far no one has complained about not being able to understand me over the microphone.

If the battery would last 4+ hours I would definitely recommend them but 2.5h is a bit on the low side imo (depends on you cause case obviously).
