Can you sleep wearing those?
Odd that the DPA acquired Bose. /s
Finally potentially good wired earphones with ANC.
The product I was searching for like ten years ago.
Well okay then.
I just hate how most earbuds these days are “in ear”. Still love using my old Samsung Beans, and I will always refuse to call them by their real product name.
You might enjoy the increasingly popular “clip” style of earbud.
An example of such: https://shokz.com/pages/opendots-one
Interesting, hadn’t seen this before.
They keep emphasizing its comfortable, but it definitely does not look like it.
I really want a refreshed bean.

And it’s OOS 😔
Never had much luck with USB-C earbuds. Do they not suck now?
I imagine the suckiness is relative to whether or not they use a cheap DAC to transmit the signal, though depending on when you last tried them even the bottom tier ones you might find in a cheap-o pair will probably perform decently enough.
Not earbuds, specifically, but I got a fairly cheap (I think it was ~$15) USB-C DAC to connect my phone to the 3.5mm jack in my car and the quality and volume of the audio is quite good without any extra power needed beyond whatever the phone provides.
