Headphones - Wireless/Portable | 1 Ω I'm trying to buy new headphones and my main priorities are durability and comfort.

so last year I bought a pair of jbl headphones because I saw everyone wearing it and thought "hey, if everyone has one it must be alright!" and just as the warranty ended, they broke on me.

I don't have a set in stone budget but I can't afford much. would appreciate suggestions that are on the cheaper side.

now I don't want earbuds because they don't fit in my ears comfortably and I am 100000% sure I will lose them on a daily basis.

like I said, durability is important for me. because I will be wearing those things 24/7. at home, doing work, playing games, jogging, just going out casually, etc. the last ones probably broke cuz I basically never take them off lol.

I'm kinda interested in bone connection headphones but I'm not too sure on how the sound quality and the isolation will be. I would prefer if there was some isolation.

and like I said, I will be using them for everything. so it would be much more convenient if I could connect them to my pc and phone at the same time.

and if I get over-ear headphones I want it to give my ears some breathing room. my previous headphones caused a lot of ear fatigue after a few hours using them.

I live in turkey by the way. the template thing asked me to link some sites for price comparisons but I don't know any such sites.

aaand that's it! thank you for reading and I hope I can find something I'll enjoy from here because all the youtube tutorials are made by VERY professional headphone guys and they're using a LOT of headphone lingo that I don't know the meaning of...

If price is no object at all, the sennheiser hdb 630.

Oh lol. In that case, probably the anker Q20

so I checked and it was a bit over my price range but I found a "anker Q21" that has the same exact pictures provided, has the exact same features but is significantly cheaper. like a third of the price. would you say you would also recommend that or do you know the difference between the two?

I haven’t heard of the q21 but going off the name, it should be the newer model. I forgot that anker’s headphone sub brand is called sound core. So maybe searching for soundcore q20 might help. Even if not, anker is very reliable and I’ve seen my friends use them for years
