Review on 🎧 Plugfones Guardian: Noise Reduction In-Ear Headphones - Blue & Yellow Earplug Earbud Hybrid by Joshua Castillo

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Life/work changes but I have a BIG problem

Love these in ear headphones. However, this is my third pair in a year and a half. I wear them every day so I get a lot of value, but paying $30 every 6 months gets boring. With these earbuds I can listen to audiobooks, music and even TV at work. With Amazon Prime, you can download shows straight to your phone so you can watch them offline later. I have watched WATCH and WATCH TV with these earbuds. Well, mostly they listen, but some watch. I bought a bluetooth receiver and routed the plugfone cables down my back under my shirt, put it in the bluetooth receiver and the receiver in my back pocket to hide everything from everyone else. I'm an airplane mechanic (I fix airplanes). I actually work harder because I don't have to be fooling around elsewhere and can work while listening and looking at my phone. I like that about them, but there are also some issues I have with them. Some of the earbuds sound pretty decent, but they're not as good as real earbuds. Since the plastic speaker penetrates deep into the foam, as intended, it is difficult to insert it deep into the ear. My biggest problem with them is that I have to buy new ones every 6 months because one site goes down and stops working, or worse, works again in between. That's a lot of money for earplugs! As I said, I wear them a lot, 5 days a week, 8 hours or more a day. You have to decide whether it's worth it for you. Plus they sound great and are loud enough for my shop which can be very noisy!

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky
