gardenmom5 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I've had terrible luck with ear buds. They're uncomfortable, I can't make them work, etc. Give me some suggestions . . . I have a samsung phone if that matters . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Get some with different sized silicone ear tips. I’m only comfortable with the pairs with S or XS sizes. The others are just too big and hurt. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KungFuPanda Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I don’t like the ones that go IN my ears. They all hurt after a while. I use the style that hangs over the top of my ear and rests at the ear canal but not IN it, or the sleep headphones (a soft stretchy headband with flat speakers inside), or regular headphones. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catz Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 The ones that go in my ears don’t work well for me either. I have a pair of shokz over the ear. I’ve had them for a few years and I love them. I wear them working in the kitchen, walking outside, etc. I have a cheap pair of individual over the ear ones I keep near my bed. https://shokz.com/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwoPOwBhAeEiwAJuXRh4MypVAPRKq8U16YnnFVTplPkpUeiVGM8np-n4FtFQh3T1UI7UGxFxoCvoAQAvD_BwE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie12345 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I like the stretchy headband headphone/buds, too. For me, earbuds may be a little uncomfortable, but mostly I have huge anxiety about them falling into a toilet, sink, or similar disaster. I recently got “regular” wireless headphones and I like them so much better than any in- or over-ear buds I’ve tried. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie G Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 We bought ds some bone conducting headphones for a Christmas and they are wonderful! I was so skeptical until I tried some at Best Buy. Tiny, almost weightless, excellent sound, and not in your ear. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have wireless headphones I use with my laptop, and can use with my phone - but they're big and bulky (have very good noise cancelling) I don't want to wear them when I'm out shopping . . .

I especially like the open ear ones walking on streets, in public places, so I can be aware and hear what is going on around me. The ones I have also have a button on the side that will pause and restart my podcast, book, music, etc so I don't have to play with my phone to get it done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
