Choices above, haven't ordered myself but there is update models, choose between iOS/Micro USB/Type C charging port?

I've JUST received my LK-TE8 buds. Have to say, so far I'm very impressed. Good sound, great size and charging case is perfect fit for the pocket. Will use them some more over the next few days & report back if there's ant issues.

I bought the i12 TWS from gearbest without realising it was a pre-sale. Still waiting for them to release... 5 more days.

Bought a pair of these last week. At 12 euro, the quality/sound is better than the last pair I had for 40 euro.

Didn't think, what side of your body, you have your device on would really make much of difference. Strange instructions for the buds?

i suspect Anker won't ship to Ireland if they are on sale - the soundbuds slim+ normally can be shipped to Ireland, but on the deal of the day link above they're showing as not shipping to Ireland, even though the other headphones will ship to Ireland.

I love my old Sennheiser IE8s so got a Fiio BTR1K so I can use them with my 6T. Fairly impressed so far..

I did similar but my headphones had an MMXC plug type connector so was able to swap in the short Fiio cable to replace the full length cable. It's a great solution. Hopefully some more people will start making shorter cables.

how much do you have to be spending for really good battery life?

bought some for about 30 euro on Amazon and was very disappointed the battery life was only around 3 hours ish

Battery life will be effected by size more than cost. Well power output and energy density to be more exact. Can confirm that the Anker give about 7hours though

Funny, I have a pair of Anker headphones, and if I keep my phone in my left pocket the audio does cut out more than if it's in my right..

I am looking for either a radio that works with bluetooth headphones ie doesn't need the headphone cable as an aerial or headphones with an fm radio.

I use a Roberts pocket radio but I want to get rid of wires

^^^ I have these or similar, the radio in them can be hard to tune to stations.

If you have all you can eat data, why not use a Internet Radio a.k.a https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.streema.simpleradio ????

Nice find by corkie.
Generally FM radios need some form of wire or antenna in order to pick up a signal.
The headphones corkie linked to probably has an antenna in the headband. Not sure how strong it's likely to be, especially at that price range.

Remember to RTFM! Can not remember what I did with it!

Edit: - Manual PDF <<< For another model mine is micro usb.

Have the headset since October 2015, so an old model, there maybe more expensive newer models. (Bought on ali... and paid $ 16.99 or what ever in euro then).

The radio is not to bad, thought it was worse from when last trying the function on them, wasn't my main reason getting them. Once you go into FM mode, all you need to do tap on the power button and it will scan all available channels. Volume button quick press to go up or down them. (don't remember doing that before).

Here is a link for a similar model, I think I have the version linked previously

Lots of bad reviews re: sound and connection issues. I bought a pair about 7 months ago and returned them as the right ear bud just would not connect. Got a refund though.
