I got this so I could charge my iPhone 7 and listen to music simultaneously. I find it very handy in the gym also although making and receiving calls is a bit hit and miss. Its £14 on Amazon

They are a nice earbud, i bought them to try out and they are surprisingly well fitting (when you use the correct ear-cup), no chance of them falling out.
The box is the charger so the whole unit is quite handy to have.
When they arrived i could not charge them
and found that there is a small bit of tape protecting the contacts. Needs to be removed first 
. But after that with a small bit of fiddling to get them into the correct positions, they charged no problem. The charger LED on the box turns white when they are fully charged, but will not change white it the contacts are not sitting properly in the box (another thing that took me a little while to figure out).
You also have to remove the right one first from the charger otherwise they will misconnect. If you remove the left earpiece first, it can take up to a minute to reseat them properly and then remove them in the correct order.
The sound from them is very clear, there is no background noise, and not a great deal of bass. They are very decent for the price. Neither amazing nor bad, and are comfortable.
I tried them in headset mode once very briefly. When a call comes in, the voice (female) calls out the phone number that is ringing you can tap the button to stop it. There are other button commands (redial etc) but i never planned to use them as a headset, so did not.
I had to charge them with normal use after roughly 4-5 hours, even though it says in the packaging that it is 12 hours.
As soon as you place them in the charger, they disconnect, and reconnect as soon a you take them out. Also, if you place them in the box to charge, and the box is nearly out of charge, instead of disconnecting or charging, they will connect and drain themselves, so you must be careful that the box is fully charged.
They were up above $50 at one stage, which is the main reason i bought them at the $35 price. I have since given them away to a younger relative (by coercion, not choice
)
Cheaper here €19.40 https://www.joybuy.com/3298199.html
The last thing i bought from these, took less than 2 weeks if i remember correctly.0 -

Stupid question but can the connecting cable be removed (daughter looking for iphone air pod type earphones)?
Why not get the ones in the OP? They are still only €21 on Joybuy, they have gone up a little because of the exchange rate, but may drop this week or so in the singles day sales.0 -

They look alright, i might get a pair too. Earhook on the rim is part of the bud, so they must be fairly small.
Edited it there.May be worth editing your original post with a warning in case anyone clicks through and pulls the trigger before reading forward.
I saw a pair that get great reviews, sound etc.. But they look ugly. They look huge, not sure i would want them sticking out of my ear like in the pictures, but i may be viewing them wrong. They get very good reviews, but 30mm from tip to cover
. They come with 3 different types of earhook.

Was looking for a reasonable pair of headphones to listen to podcasts while jogging & have finally found a pair that work well for me. For once they just connect to my phone without having to go through the pain of unpair/repair as a few cheaper pairs always made me do. The over ear ones suit me better vs the ones with the little wings as I was forever having to push them back into my obviously elephant like ears

I have that issue with earbuds also. One fits perfectly, the other keeps falling loose. I've changed the buds to all different shapes but it's annoying.
Might give these a go0 -
