Looking for Bluetooth headphones
Not ear buds (hate them.)
Light weight, over head, over hear.
For walking.
Thanks in advance.

What’s the price range? What features, how much do you value sound quality? You can go up to ~500ish USD on BT over-ears, depending on what you want and are ready to spend.
Less than $50.
I have a friend who is testing tons of Bluetooth headphones, will ping him if he has any good recommendation in that range!
Call Raccoon. Not sure if the ones he plugged on the amazon deals thread were from vipon or what, but I grabbed a few of them for… what?.. 12bux a pop sometimes?.. and they were pretty good for watching movies at night, etc.
Think MPOW was one brand but they were banned(??) for too many “deals” or what.
Scour vipon first and foremost, though.
I have these bone conduction headphones I like a lot. I bought them years ago when they first came out and they were like $200 but I bet you can get them for <$50 now. They aren’t good of you care about sound quality but they’re great for listening to podcasts while still being able to hear everything around you
Mpow got booted from Amazon for fake reviews. I got a couple pairs for about $12 or so, well worth it.
Some deals can be found here:
Mpow can still be found on eBay.
Here are some searches that I have bookmarked.
I’m not sure which Mpow models are the best, but I think these four have decent feedback on other websites.
If you want, I could recommend some specific headphones on Vipon, but I don’t have first hand experience with any of them.
I would just be going off of Amazon reviews. ![]()
I’ve got the H10 and the H12 models. Both good enough for me when mowing grass.
Friend told you should look for an Anker Soundcore Q30. MSRP is around 70 bucks, but apparently can be had for 50 frequently.
According to him by far the best in the <100$ class.
I have 3 pairs of the August EP650. I think they sound good (very good with equalization), and importantly to me, they support aptX Low Latency. I have a few bluetooth transmitters around the house, all using aptX LL, and you need your headphones to support the same codec as the transmitter if you want low latency. So these are great for watching TV and movies, paired with the LL transmitters. If you play games with headphones, you’ll also want low latency.
I also have a couple of pairs of Sennheiser Momentum 3’s, which sound great, and also support aptX LL, but those are a step up in price (I got both of mine used though).
The Anker Q30 really are very good for the money. Anker stuff in general can be highly recommended.
Those August EP650 headphones look pretty good!
I use Avantree Audition Pro headphones, which support aptX low latency, and also accept Brainwavz sheepskin ear pads.
The Avantree headphones are discontinued and are kinda tough to find, but I haven’t been able to find anything better (for me) that is somewhat affordable.
(I’ll have to check out the August EP650 headphones some more to see if they’re a good fit for me.)
The August look good.
The Anker look good but the look too heavy. Are they heavy?
A bit over your budget, but if you have a small noggin, I hear that the Sennheiser HD 450BT is a nice pair of aptX LL headphones.
My noggin is extra large otherwise I would order myself a pair.
I think the 450BT also accepts Brainwavz sheepskin ear pads.
This looks closer to what I would like:
Edifier WH500 Wireless On-Ear Headphones – Bluetooth V5.2 Lightweight and Foldable Headphones with 40-Hours Music Playtime – Personalize EQ -Fast Charging (Black) Amazon.com
Those are on ear, not over ear.
Sorry thats what I meant. My mistake.
Oh, okay.
I don’t have any experience with on ear Bluetooth headphones. ![]()
