1. Bluetooth Headphones. By the computer. Charging snd set hassles. But sound and isolation outstanding.

2. Soft earbuds with wire. $12 from BASF. Work great. Comfortable. Reliable. Good for airplane.

3. Hard Bluetooth. I lose them. They don’t fit in my ears, fall out. Charging and connection. I’ve had two pairs of Apples finest. Not for me.

Headphones because they stay on easier and I won’t lose them.

I’m the same

I used both.

Apple AirPod earbuds are very convenient for outdoor activities, but can only wear then for an hour at a time before they start to annoy me.

Headphones 🎧 i wear hearing aids 🦻 so they’re my only real choice.

I have an earbud in my ear for about 16 hours a day. I dont care for headphones because I sweat where the cushions are and their bulky and they fall off. But I gotta have the earbud all day because I can never allow myself to be in silence or else Ill start thinking about life and go into a depressive spiral 🫠. The only solution ive found is 24/7 distraction 🙂

I have Bluetooth hearing aids, and though they can play my Spotify and other things, the sound quality just isn’t there, nor is the background noise reduction needed in a loud place like the gym.

Prefer the sound and comfort of headphones, but not practical when walking/jogging. Couldn't stand the common "earplug" style, so I use the wrap-around, clip-on style. Also don't like the noise cancelling, not only because you can't hear traffic or people shouting "on your left", but they sound like you're underwater.

I think I might have little ear holes because earbuds are hard for me to insert.

Agree 100%. My hearing aids are blue tooth but, I couldn’t hear my content over the music & such at the gym. I can we are ear buds there, but only because I am there an hour or less. Otherwise they hurt my ears too much.

Find earbuds, kind of uncomfortable

Hearing aids can essentially act as Air Pods if they are Bluetooth compatible.

I use my AirPods Pro 3’s as hearing aids/air buds when I go to the gym, and as hearing aids for a few hours most days.

Depends entirely on context. At my computer I want to wear my nice over-ear headphones for best sound quality and comfort long-term. Walking around my neighborhood I prefer the portability, minimalism, and lack of interference with sweat and my hair that earbuds offer.

Depends on what I’m doing. I use both.

I don’t like sticking things in my ears, so headphones for me

Neither. Let the music fill the room or house and enjoy it.

I wear hearing aids so the ear buds aren’t great for me. With my headphones I can keep my hearing aids in & then hear very well with our any distortion of sounds.

Same

Boeing has inverted controls once again! Crash...

At home, headphones have started growing on me. Earbuds are still the go to when going anywhere else.

Bone conduction. Shox specifically.

It depends. At home, headphones. At the gym, earbuds.

how did you find a comfy one? they hurt my ears after an hour

I guess just luck after going through MANY sets of earbuds. Lots of the ones ive tried hurt my ear. I finally found 'heyday' brand earbuds to be fairly comfortable. They do still make me a little sore if I fall asleep with them.

Even the uncomfortable brands are still preferable to me though. Id rather be in pain than be sweaty.
