I’m looking for some BIFL over ear (wireless Bluetooth, since I’m always breaking the wires by accident) headphones.

I haven’t had much luck with the earbud things. They’re always falling out unless I put them in real well. I want something you can just put in and forget about. Something good for working in the field, running, etc.

It’s annoying to have a pair of headphones you really like, only for them to break around the two year mark. Seems like nothing lasts these days.

I’d be willing to pay up to $200, but do tend to buy most things used.

Thanks.

    I don’t mind using wired, guess the main problem is if it’s able to withstand the occasional jerking/dropping out of my pocket. Any particular sennheiser model you recommend, or just any I can get my hands on?

    I actually just had a pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 that lasted me a while, but just broke. The body itself has been falling apart in more and more places. Better than most I’ve had, anyhow. I’m gonna try to repair it for the 3rd time, but its time is limited now. RIP.

      I have the 660s, but you can find the 6xx’s new or used in your price range. The body is plastic, but it holds up really well. I have dropped mine about a dozen times on a hardwood floor and they look brand new. These are not pocketable though. Someone might have a better recommendation for that need/want. The 500 range does not have a detachable cable to my knowledge, but otherwise are nice headphones as well.

      As an alternative to the 1000xm3’s, you can check out the Bose 700’s. I gave my pair to my other kid and she has been using hers for a long time without issues. Battery is always going to be the limiting factor for BT headphones.
