so i've been thinking about getting wireless earphones for my brother for his birthday, i know he doesn't like messing with cables anymore

does anyone have a good recommendation for earphones (no headphones plz)? his birthday is next month so there's no worries if it takes a while to ship

preferably something on the affordable side cuz im poor but i'm willing to spend more if needed

Headphones ok, but wireless earphones are like the most redundant thing ever.

i know but he'd prefer that over headphones

he works out and runs a lot so headphones wouldn't be good for him

I like the V4ink Teanas.

They're fairly compact and have good sound, the pairing is easy to figure out, and the large drivers make them hard to lose.
Charging is a cinch, although the base doesn't fit in your pocket well. It's smaller than Apple's or Earin's charging cases, but it's shaped akwardly.

They do come with a carrying case, and also some ear crest fittings and different tip fittings, as well as a braided micro usb, though it's only about five inches.

Sometimes the audio drops for half a second, usually when carrying your phone in your front pants pocket, but it rarely happens in your jacket or breast pocket. But that's common with true wireless earphones. Makes them good for the gym if you keep your phone off your person.

The battery life is not phenomenal, but it's better than some industry front runners like Airpods and Earins.

In all seriousness, true wireless earphones are in their infancy and not a great product from any brand, despite how cool they seem, and I would recommend spending your money on something with wires.
