It's Pinkish Gold on the other side. They're from Samsung and I have a pair of these too. Apparently, they're colored this way partly to look like and nornalise wearing hearing aids.

TotalWarthog93 t1_ix32edi wrote

Well that’s pointless, as the hearing aids that are made now are made to be pretty much impossible to see

IShallSealTheHeavens t1_ix3a39s wrote

Have hearing aids, I think you might be referring to the implants. Those are for serious hearing loss only from my understanding. I have fairly recent hearing aids too, got them in 2019? They basically function like wireless ear buds and can connect to devices via Bluetooth. You can definitely tell they're still hearing aids tho since they'll sit on the back of your ear.

Kurai_Tora t1_ix3fxxl wrote

There are tiny hearing aids like the Phonak Virto that resemble ear plugs and stay hidden in the canal.

HPfan94 t1_ix3h9p7 wrote

A lot of people can't use hearing aids like that though. Depending on the degree of hearing loss they may not be able to provide enough power, and they definitely aren't practical for children with hearing loss.

ggdisney t1_ix3m41b wrote

Yes! My kids Dr. Said never before 18 and zero sports after. BTE (behind the ear) is what most deaf people use

aclockworkporridge t1_ix3tb9i wrote

Are they implants? Can they be taken out? Surely a doctor can't recommend a product that disallows participation in any athletic activity... Basically the only thing that's truly good for us

bziggy91 t1_ix3vog5 wrote

I believe the hearing aids they're referring to are semi-implantables. They're inserted into the ear and then left there for 3-4 months, at which point they're removed, thrown away, and replaced.

aclockworkporridge t1_ix4007f wrote

Yikes, no athletic activity for 4 months at a time sounds like a recipe for disaster later in life. But maybe it's just no contact sports or something.

>Basically the only thing that's truly good for us

this is such a strange way to say physical activity is good

Kurai_Tora t1_ix3hjg1 wrote

That's why they're mostly advertised for lighter hearing loss. And people who wouldn't want an external aid or implants would prefer those.

HPfan94 t1_ix3l1r4 wrote

Sorry, I probably should've replied to u/TotalWarthog93

I was just trying to explain why it's still beneficial to normalize hearing aids since not everyone can wear the nearly invisible ones.

spontan3ous_ t1_ix3hwqc wrote

Has hearing aid technology gotten infinitely better since the foray of the wireless earbud era?

Idkhfjeje t1_ix3r9ue wrote

The only thing I can think of is ergonomics but hearing aids don't transfer and decode files via Bluetooth so there's very little technological connection.

IShallSealTheHeavens t1_ix95m2c wrote

Nope, I had them when I was in 5th grade, about.20 years ago. They still function the exact same except they now have Bluetooth. That's it lol. The shape, form factor, basically the same.

_Wraith t1_ix3lyah wrote

That's an interesting assertion. I just assumed they were colored the same as phones from that generation. I have the matching rose gold phone and earbuds.

TheInfamous313 t1_ix3iepq wrote

I'd guess they're so a wearer with brown hair and/or skin can use them without being noticed as much (ie, at work or school). Solid design idea

Paulo27 t1_ix42ca6 wrote

Except in this case it'd be someone with pinkish gold hair or skin.

Do you also think they come in black/white so black or white people can use them without being noticed as much or something?

Maybe it’s a hearing device rather than a music device? As such they may be coloured to fit in with a wider range of skin tones.

darlin-clementine OP t1_ix3qalx wrote

Y’all are nuts! Lol, to answer your questions: I did not put the cashew in my ear, nor did I eat my earbud.

My headphones fell off of my nightstand. As, I occasionally enjoy a packet of chocolate cashews, there was a rogue one on the floor. When I went to pick up my headphones, I grabbed a headphone and the cashew thinking they were the pair.

First of all

THE BEANS!!!!!

second I really did not like these headphones at all, they don't work for my ears whatsoever and they did not get that loud (for me anyway) not judging you if you enjoy them, just found I'm definitely more of an in ear earphone kinda person instead of sitting in your ear if that makes sense.

It’s okay that you hate them, but they are the ONLY in ear bud that doesn’t hurt my ears. I love ‘em a lot.

Hugh_Man t1_ix3vddl wrote

I took me a while to figure out how to wear them properly, but once I did they are super comfortable, and I love how they are not in-ear.

The sound quality is a little meh though. Same for the noise cancelling.

Rubcionnnnn t1_ix361jw wrote

I think they are pretty good. The only thing I hate is that of course Samsung refuses to use the open standard APTX bluetooth protocol that everyone else uses and instead uses a proprietary one so there is an insane amount of latency (almost a full second) unless you use them with a samsung phone.

joe199799 t1_ix36eft wrote

I would look into that personally, I used them with a OnePlus 7t pro and a pixel 4a and never had that issue I believe I was using sbc for the audio codec or aac one of the two (you can switch in developer options on Android) (tap build number a shit ton of times in about phone until it says you are now a developer)

ArienSha t1_ix300do wrote

I have to be honest.. I have tried apple ones a couple time and i absolutely hated the feeling of any crap being in my ears (maybe i have freaky ears or something, i dunno), so i am actually quite passionately disliking any of them in any colour from any brand... No offense to anyone who likes them, but on top of clogging your ears, to me they all look absolutely ridonkulous. Its kinda like fleece sweaters. They look horrible, but they are terribly practical, so people wear them.

joe199799 t1_ix369st wrote

That's fair I just don't think my canals work for ones that sit in my ears like they just don't seal and I hate it so I get ones that go on my ear so I can get a seal
