In the US you could get the Soundcore Aerofit 2 around $80. For an open, it has good bass and is one of the better open hook style earbuds. Or look at the Earfun clip for around $50. For a clip, the Earfun Clip or the Soundpeats Pearl Clip Pro are pretty good for around or under $50. Even cheaper, the Baseus BC1 has decent bass. I own all of those so feel free to ask for more information.
I agree with other comments that you really can’t hear anything if there’s any bit of traffic, so if you do any road/city running then I don’t recommend this. I got Baseus BC1 which are cheap and clip on your ear. You can hear surrounding noise but also the music super well.
I just returned the Baseus Bass BC1, and I may get them again. I returned them to get the MC1 Pro, but those hurt my ears as they were too tight. The BC1 fit me perfectly, and were very comfortable. they had decent call quality and sounded good. I would go with them!! I may end up getting them again!
I have tried all three, and I still have the MC1 Pro. They are way better than the other two in my opinion. However they definitely aren't that cheap. I was blessed to get them for $43 a couple months ago on Amazon with a couple coupons. They are on sale right now for $63, and that is the cheapest you will normally get them for. However...I also had the normal MC1 and those are still better than these two Soundpeats options in my opinion. Better call quality, sound, battery life (the Soundpeats actually have crap battery life which makes no sense to me as these don't exactly have ANC...)...to me l, everything about both the MC1 and MC1 Pro is better than the Soundpeats. Oh yeah...and you have to log into the Soundpeats app to update them and other crap. You have to log into the Baseus app if you want to have the Find My feature, but I don't care about that. As a matter of fact...I also had the Baseus BC1...and those are ALSO better than the Soundpeats...and they are almost $30 or less.
I had them and really like them. I have and daily drive the Baseus MC1 Pro and they are great. The normal MC1 are great too. For "cheap" though, the BC1 are very high quality...and I would actually say they are more comfortable than the MC1 and MC1 Pro, as they squeeze your ear "slightly" less. But if you want a bit better quality than the BC1, go for the MC1, then the MC1 Pro. You probably can't go wrong with any of them.
I got the Baseus BC1s on Amazon for around $25 last June. They’re not pretty, but they get the job done. I didn’t want to spend $100 or more because I wasn’t sure they were for me. I’ve had the Shokz Openruns for an open experience, but they bothered me because I also wear glasses and there was too much stuff sitting around my ears. I also have AirPods Max, but they’re heavy and make my ears feel too warm after a while. I wanted to try the Shokz Opendots or the Bose ones, but they were too expensive, so I took a shot on the BC1s to see if I’d even like these earring like earbuds. I use them for work calls on my MacBook and my phone for podcasts. multi-point allows me to switch between devices without fiddling with Bluetooth settings on either device. Overall, they’re good enough and have lasted almost a year already. The whole thing feels cheap, but I’ve dropped the case a few times and everything still works.
For a bargain price, I got the Baseus BC1 which are wireless clip earphones.. Normal earphones for me fall out when I run, and these clip on ones have been fantastic, sometimes don’t remember they are on my ears. Can hear around me, and it’s great for me (mainly podcasts).
Just got the newly released Baseus Bass BC1 and I'm impressed so far. Better bass and frequency response than others of this type that I've used. Smooth switching between devices.Bluetooth 6.0. Intro specials are out there.
I used the Baseus Bass BC1 clip on buds for most of today. Driving, taking and making calls, podcasts and enjoying music. They were comfortable and performed beyond my expectations. I received them on promotion. I see them selling for $20. Definitely worth having around.
Used about 30%. Music sounded quite good. Ridiculous performance for $20.
may baseus bc1 din pag nag sale. Pero okay yung mga soundpeats at redmi buds. Better kung nasa 1.5k php kahit paano para maiwasan mo yung occlusion effect, kasi madaming below 1k na meron pa nun at walang venting system, mairita ka lang.
I personally use basus bass bc1, soundcore v20i or tozo open ring.
I tend to switch between soundpeats pop clip, basus bass bc1, tozo open ring and soundcore v20i. Out of all day , I find the basus bass bc1 and soundpeats pop clip the best. The tozo has a issue with accidentally turning off depending on how I have it. The soundcore v20i pinch a little bit with sunglasses.
I have the pop clip and they have issue with battery drain. I also have the Tozo opening. They are really good and when it comes the basus bc1 . They are great because of them having button controls
