Baseus - Bowie MC1 Pro Open Ear Clip-On Headphones

good day! could you please tell more about comparison of c40i and mc1? I have mc1, they’re quite good for me, but I feel like c40i could be better but I’m not sure

smaller ears too. most in ear buds either hurt or fall out way too easily for me. now I am using an open ear style called the Baseus MC1. It just clips on the outside, and doesn’t go in your ear at all. doesn’t move around even when walking or working out. It’s been way more comfortable for long use, super lightweight . and I never have to worry about it falling out. around $70 USD, might be a bit above your budget. but if you’ve struggled with fit like I did, it could be worth checking out.

I’ve been using Baseus MC1 and it’ve been great for calls. have AI noise reduction for voice, and the mic stays super clear even with background noise. People can actually hear me now. It’s open ear, just clips onto your ear and feels really light. tbh I hadn’t used a non in ear style before this, but the experience has been better than I expected. I can wear it for 5 hours straight with no pressure at all. And I can still hear what’s going on around me, which is nice for long time calling.

in ear buds give me headaches and just fall out if I move or eat. I’ve tried a few open-ear options and have stuck with the Baseus MC1. It doesn’t go into your ear at all. It just clips on the outside, super light and honestly way more stable than I expected. No pressure, nothing pushing in, and I can wear it for hours. Battery lasts about 6 to 7 hours on a charge and the case gives you more. It’s been solid for music, podcasts, and even calls. If you liked the fit of AirPods 2, this might be worth a look.

I’ve always liked over-ear headphones, but recently I found open-ear ones are surprisingly awesome too! I have an open-ear one called Baseus MC1. my ear canals are just not shaped for many in ear buds. They either start hurting after a bit or just fall out, no matter the size of the tips. The MC1 doesn’t go in my ear at all, just clips on gently. So i don’t need to worried the canal issue and it stay put well. no ear fatigue even after hours. It’s super lightweight, and honestly feels way more secure than anything I’ve used before. Also works fine with my iPhone and MacBook. Definitely a different type of design, but worth checking out if you’re tired of buds not fitting right.

I had the same problem at the gym with other buds randomly pausing, especially when I was sweating. So I ditched anything touch-based and picked up the Baseus MC1. No touch, no heat sensor nonsense. It uses physical buttons tucked behind your ear and hasn’t messed up once. Also stays put even when I’m sweaty and moving around. Might be worth checking out if you’re done fighting with your earbuds.

Ok yan pero pag running dapat open ear. Safety first. Maganda yung open ear ng [baseus](https://s.shopee.ph/3q84kAnJDt)

I use as headphones the momentum 4, and as earphones baseus bowie. Both run great on bluetooth, without latency and great sound cancelation... But momentum costs over 200, baseus around 20-30€.

i think i have those they suck. baseus bowie are the cheapest good ones i have found for $12 USD

Wow. I may try them. How is the transparency? I have the MC1 Pro and have been blown away. This Baseus brand has come out of nowhere. I have seen them around but they have hit some home runs lately.

If you are already wearing earmuffs or whatever for work, consider the only IP67 rated buds...but they are CLIP style...the Baseus Bowie MC1 Pro. I have them and they are great. I have been using earbuds for about 5 years now and I really like the clip style. My daily drivers are the Huawei FreeClip, but they are $200. The MC1 Pro are about $70 or less on sale. They retail for $90 but you shouldn't have to pay that much. If you need great ANC, call quality, and moisture protection, someone already mentioned the Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2...that is everything all in one. Probably can't go wrong with them, honestly.

Do you care about ANC even? If not, may want to consider Clip style. I have the Huawei FreeClip and they are amazing, with the most comfortable fit you can imagine. If doesn't even feel like you are wearing anything. And they last 9+ hours. I also have the Baseus MC1 Pro, and they are also great, but maybe a 7-8 out of 10, and the FreeClip are a 9 out of 10. They are both completely open, and let all noise from the outside in...seriously...you don't even realize you are wearing them they are THAT comfortable. They are actually SO comfortable, it is hard to even use earbuds that go IN your ear after you wear these for awhile.

I have the FreeClip and MC1 Pro. They are both amazing. I may get the XC1 as they look to check all my boxes.

Hmmm...interesting. I have the MC1 Pros and that sort of sucks...as I was highly thinking about getting these. I had the Aeroclips for a couple days when they came out and they sounded amazing...but they were SO TIGHT they hurt like HECK after about 30 min. That was the same with the first pair of MC1 Pros I tried, but I returned them and got another pair (and my current daily drivers) and they have been perfect. I also have the Huawei FreeClip and they are amazingly comfortable...those got me into the "Clip" style. They just announced the FreeClip 2 as well, but if you are in the US you would have no idea as Huawei has been taken off all online stores unfortunately.

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 haven’t used all you mentioned, but I compared soundcore and ended up with Baseus mc1 pro, they're really comfortable.

You could try Baseus MC1 which I used recently, mostly for audiobooks while walking or doing stuff around the house. It's perfect for long-time wearing cause It’s an open ear style that just clips on the outside of your ear, so nothing goes in and it’s super comfortable even after hours. It’s IP57 rated, so I don’t worry about sweat or a bit of rain. Battery’s solid and I never feel ear fatigue like I used to with in ear buds. I think I paid around 70 bucks, but they may have deals around PD.

you can try clip-on earbud, they might be exactly what you're looking for. I have Baseus MC1 Pro, and they hook around the outside of your ear without going into the ear canal at all. The fit’s really secure, even during movement and they stay in place comfortably for hours. No tips, no pressure, and nothing pushing into your ear. They’re wireless, have great sound (especially with LDAC), and I’ve had zero issues with them slipping or feeling loose. Definitely worth checking out if nothing in-ear has worked for you.

I use the Baseus MC1 for work, I’m often moving between sites and taking a lot of calls outdoors, sometimes around traffic or construction noise. What’s been impressive is the mic, people hear me clearly even when I’m outside with background noise. It uses AI noise reduction and dual mics, and I’ve had no complaints on the other end. It’s an open ear style, so nothing goes in your ears. doesn’t have ANC for listening, so not ideal if you're looking for isolation, but for calls and general outdoor use, it’s been rock solid.

I use Baseus MC1 and it's honestly a solid choice for call and gym. It clips on your ears instead of going in, so it’s super comfy and doesn’t fall off while working out. Also sweat resistant, which is great for runs or gym sessions. I take calls with it all the time and people hear me clearly, even in noisy spots. Sound is better than I expected, especially for something under 70 bucks. If you want something stable and call-friendly, I’d say check it out.

I don’t like anything going directly into my ear either. I’ve been using an open ear style called the Baseus MC1 for several months and it’s been such a relief. Way more comfortable than any in-ear I’ve tried, no in-ear pressure at all. I love how lightweight it is and it’s surprisingly stable. Doesn’t fall off even when I’m moving around or jogging. Sound quality is actually better than I expected for an open design. I got it for around $60, so well under your budget. Might be worth a look if the AirPods shape worked for you but you’re open to something even less invasive.

I have small ears, just can’t do anything that goes into the ear canal. i’ve been using an open ear one called the Baseus MC1 and it’s been great. just clips on the outside of your ear and feels super light, no pressure at all. I use it mostly when I’m out walking and it stays put without bothering me. The sound is pretty balanced too. Not too bass heavy, vocals and instruments come through nice and clear. Also no ANC, which I actually prefer since it doesn’t mess with my ears or trigger any ringing. i spent around $60, so not super high end, but for comfort and everyday use it’s honestly been better than most of the big name ones I’ve tried.
