mctfopt:Thanks bro, however the QCY HT08, HT05, Soundcore P30i, QCY T13 etc, i have tried them all, they are good on their respective ways but anything with silicon or in ears do give me pain & make me uncomfortable, that's why I'm looking for airpods type earbuds populary known as semi in ears(they just sit in your ears without going in deep) If it's about bass, i was already satisfied with the Soundcore P30i, that thing thumps very well |

icon91:Oh, I missed the part about the silicon. Unfortunately, I have no recommendation on that type of airpod-like buds. |

mctfopt:No worries bro |

| Re: The Head Phones And Earbuds Thread by mctfopt: 2:26pm On May 25, 2025 |

fatytoy333:You have quite a great collection. B&O and that Sony rocks. My friend has the latest XM5 bought by his employer for work. Dude rocks it all day! Features on that headphone is just so much. I particularly liked the hand gesture cup of one of the of the headphone to talk to someone without having to manually reduce your music volume. |

Malik1338:Chai. If only you'd asked earlier. I sold QCY MeloBuds Pro for 45k last month but ran out of stock. Even sold MeloBuds N50 for 30k but the last unit was sold over the weekend. These are better buys. Hopefully I'll be able to restock next month. Meanwhile you can reach out to Elbuzzy for what he has from QCY. May be slightly more than above though but maybe cheaper than Jumia because Jumia's commission has to be added. Na still we dey sell for Jumia and Konga |

icon91:Soundpeats seems to be the standard for half in-ear earbuds fur most years, whether Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS, it must recently Air 5 or Air 5 Lite. Used to stock Soundpeats products a lot but they weren't offering any support and I had to bear the cost of every factory defective product. Add that to high minimum order quantity compared to low demand because of low brand recognition in Nigeria, it became difficult to sustain though I may stock them again eventually. The following is according to Scarbir's website Best semi-in-ear wireless earbuds - May 2025: Best overall - Oppo Enco Air3 Best battery life - Huawei Freebuds SE 2 Best for bass - SoundPEATS Air5 Lite Best under $25 - 1more Q10 Mini Best under $10 - Haylou X1c |

anonymousey:Where did you buy them from? Currently looking for the Melobuds Pro, been rocking the Ht05 for a yr now Is there any significant upgrades to both? |
| Re: The Head Phones And Earbuds Thread by icon91(m): 7:48pm On May 25, 2025 |
anonymousey:Thanks for this wonderful insight bro, i did check your threads out here on Nairaland & on jiji too but found out you didn't have the Soundpeats air 3 deluxe HS again & no air 5 lite too, to even ask about that 1more here in 9ja is like asking for a pregnant virgin I agree with you bro about brand recognition, Nigerians no dy do research, they do follow popular trends mainly, years back when i was looking for Anker speaker, many high level traders in popular markets like main market Onitsha etc haven't even heard of the name let alone have it Wait, i thought you're a distributor for companies like Soundcore, Soundpeats, Tribit, Earfun....OR you buy everything by yourself & sell on a personal base? Without that buyer protection, support & stuffs like that, it'll be really hard in a country like 9ja |
| Re: The Head Phones And Earbuds Thread by icon91(m): 8:37pm On May 25, 2025 |
fatytoy333:Thanks for this info! Soundcore K20i was my immediate & first option immediately i thought about semi in ears as i have Soundcore products & know they are married to "Bass" however upon reading many reviews, i noticed some particular issues from some buyers, one of which includes right earbud stopping to work after few weeks to months of usage...this did put me off from buying it, I've seen it go as low as below $15 on AliExpress I searched the Edifier W220T as per your recommendation but can't find it (Jumia, Konga, Aliexpress) Xiaomi buds pro 7 air (No option came up with this name when i searched) Thanks bro, i do appreciate your help! |
| Re: The Head Phones And Earbuds Thread by anonymousey: 6:38am On May 26, 2025 |
icon91:Yes I am an official reseller and get products direct from some (not all) of those brands which is why I was frustrated that Soundpeats offers no reasonable support for defective products. Imagine them telling me I have to send a defective product to China for them to replace it along with other conditions for doing business with them. The cost implication doesn't make sense. I got tired after a while BTW you can also reach out to Elbuzzy. He has some half in-ear earbuds from QCY (and maybe 1more or edifier but I'm not sure it he has their half in-ear earbuds), which you can research and see if they work for you. |

SyncForth:I'm a reseller and didn't buy in Nigeria. I'm working on a new order which I should have purchased last week but they didn't have MeloBuds Pro in black and gold so I have to wait till it's available Check out reviews on YouTube |

anonymousey:What's your best affordable suggestion between HeadPhones & EarBuds (my main concern is call quality and long lasting) |
| Re: The Head Phones And Earbuds Thread by anonymousey: 1:03pm On May 26, 2025 |
Penuelseun:H3 Lite 42k H3 Pro 75k Anker Soundcore Space One 95k Anker Soundcore Life Q45 135k |
| Re: The Head Phones And Earbuds Thread by anonymousey: 1:14pm On May 26, 2025 |
callydon:Headphones definitely last longer, having battery life over 30 hours per charge compared to 6 hours upwards for earbuds. Call quality is debatable. OnePlus buds 3 has great for calls but it's 120k. |
| Re: The Head Phones And Earbuds Thread by icon91(m): 6:33pm On May 26, 2025 |
anonymousey:Well, that doesn't make sense from Soundpeats, it is what it is Ok, no worries bro, thanks! May contact you in the future for certain business know hows |

Out of Curiosity I got this to add to my collections of Headphones. This is Urbanista Los Angeles My overall experience for someone that loves heavy bass in his music (Being a Reggae fan), was satisfactory Below is the Review Urbanista Los Angeles Headphones Review: Solar Power Meets Style The Urbanista Los Angeles headphones bring a fresh twist to wireless audio gear with one standout feature: solar charging. These innovative over-ear headphones are designed to harness energy from sunlight and even indoor lighting, making them nearly self-sufficient when it comes to power. But do they deliver beyond the tech novelty? Here’s a full review breaking down their strengths and shortcomings. 🔋 Game-Changing Solar Charging The most impressive feature is undoubtedly the Powerfoyle™ solar cell built into the headband. This technology enables the headphones to charge from both natural sunlight and indoor lighting. According to Urbanista, you can get up to 3 hours of playtime for every hour spent in direct sunlight. When fully charged, they offer an incredible 50 hours of battery life with ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) on, and up to 80 hours without it. In real-world use, this means you may rarely (if ever) need to plug them in—especially if you’re regularly outdoors. 🎧 Sound Quality: Big on Bass Urbanista Los Angeles headphones lean toward a bass-heavy sound signature, making them a great pick for fans of pop, hip-hop, EDM, and similar genres. The low-end is deep and punchy, and the highs are energetic. However, the mids can feel recessed, especially with vocals—something to keep in mind if you prefer a more balanced or studio-like sound. For casual listeners and bass lovers, though, these headphones deliver a fun and dynamic experience. 😌 Comfort & Build They feature a sleek design with soft memory-foam ear pads and a padded headband, wrapped in vegan leather. However, some users report that the clamping force is a bit tight, leading to discomfort during long listening sessions. The weight is reasonable (~320–420g), but there have been concerns about durability—specifically the plastic headband, which some users say cracked after extended use over a few years. 🔇 Noise Cancellation & Features The active noise cancellation is effective but not class-leading. It reduces ambient noise but won’t rival industry leaders like Sony or Bose. It also includes ambient (transparency) mode, which is handy for staying aware of your surroundings. Unfortunately, the headphones do not have a 3.5mm audio jack, meaning they’re completely wireless, and there’s no EQ customization in the companion app. The app itself is minimal, showing solar/battery stats and letting you adjust ANC and remap buttons. 🧠 Controls & Usability Physical buttons on the earcups offer solid control, but they can feel cluttered and unintuitive to some. The headphones also feature on-ear detection, pausing playback when you take them off. ✅ Pros • Industry-first solar charging technology • Extraordinary battery life • Stylish design • Energetic sound with booming bass • Bluetooth 5.0 and wear detection ❌ Cons • Sound is not balanced (bass-heavy) • No wired option • Tight fit for some users • Basic app with no EQ • Reports of headband cracking after long use • ANC is just average 🧾 Final Verdict The Urbanista Los Angeles headphones are a standout choice for anyone who wants truly wireless freedom without the hassle of constant recharging. They shine for outdoor users and bass enthusiasts, and their solar charging innovation is genuinely useful. However, if your priorities include premium sound quality, long-term comfort, and build durability, you may be better off investing in established competitors like Sony WH-1000XM5 , XM6 and other top Brands Like BOSE 700
