Hi guys.

Looking to buy bluetooth earphones (finally). I'll be using them for movies and songs, primarily. Good sound quality is of course a big bonus. I enjoy good bass.

Comfort is my top priority. I'm fond of inear's and used to be fairly happy with the way JVC Marshmallows and Rock Zircon fit.

Willing to spend up to $50 but of course, less is welcome. (Can also extend a bit if it's really worth it)
Can buy from Amazon and AliExpress (actually will be buying from one of them anyway). Please tell me what options I have!

I have no idea about what's in the market and what's been going on. Been TOTALLY cut off from the tech world for the last two years due to extremely busy schedules.
Enlighten me, please! :D

I was wondering how legit are the products in the market section of this forum? like senheisers and ath-m50x . Like i tried an HD 598 and it wasn't that good in terms of sound? or am i just overthinking it. I dunno. Also
I'd like some recommendations as well(islamabad)
Id' like headphones in the

5k-20k Price Range

im not a huge audiophile. But like I appreciate good sound

i like bass
Clarity of voice
Loud ( like it has to be loud)
and yeah. Something that's durable (for running, i don't like ear-phones , i like listening to loud music when im running, so something that is durable and can give me that).
and decent sound basically. any recommendations? im looking to buy the ath-m50x. I don't mind it if they're bulky my head is pretty big and the senheissers 598 were pretty good for running. imo

firstly you need a closed headphone, if you're planning to use them outside like Running or Jogging Etc, so others don't have to listen to your music or get disturb by it.

Secondly i'll recommend you SONY MDR 1A Closed headphone over ATH M50x.

Based on recommendation I received in this thread for some earphones under 1,000, I bought a set of basic Xiaomi piston earphones that cost around 650 rupees. The sound quality was pretty good, but what I have noticed is that they are not built ot last.

I bought a set and it lasted me about 3 months. I thought maybe that was just a one off, and bought another set of those earphones. Again, they only lasted about 3 months.

I only used them around the house, and I used them with extreme care.

Clearly, they are not built to last.

So anyway, I need a pair of cheap earphones or headphones to use while I'm doing chores/etc around the house and was wondering if anyone has any opinions on the SPACE headphones? I see the Space Solo headphone set for about 615 rupees. Are they any good? Are they durable?

If anyone has any other suggestions for headphones under 1,000 rupees please let me know.

I went to Hafeez Centre (Lahore) and found open box SteelSeries Sibera V2 (lot wala maal). Though I got one to use the band as a replacement on my Hifiman (lol yeah), the value at Rs. 1700 is stunning.
I recommend these for anyone looking for good headphones. Must mention that these, brand new in different liveries, sell for more than AED 300 (which is around 10,000+) in the UAE. So this is an absolute steal, if anyone can find them.

I've used this headset in my office. They are pretty good but after some time my ears gets hurt. Need very comfortable and soft pads

Kotion Each g1000 rated same as hyper X cloud stinger but extremely lower price as compared to others.

Why is that? Getting 7.5K from myshop.pk and hafeez center. Well, my price range is 7.5k - 8k.
Don't buy Steelseries Siberia 150 if your primary usage is for music. What's the price you are getting for Siberia 150? Knowing your budget would help in making a recommendation.

From where I can get that pro82? And what would be the price? Are they comfortable and ease for the ears?
I would actually recommend the Takstar Pro82 (through in a few more bucks and be done for a long time to come)

Do you have Pro 82? If yes, which version?
Nah bro, I don't have them, though I do itch for them... but I have too many cans on my hands already lol.

Takstar PRO82 / pro 82 Professional monitor headphones stereo HIFI headset for Computer recording K song game upgrade pro80-in Headphone/Headset from Consumer Electronics on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group

This is the link I'd recommend. Remember, even American customers are buying from AE so I think this would be the best bet.

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
