Recommend a Pair of Bluetooth Earphones for Office Use - Budget $100

My dad is looking to buy his first pair of wireless Bluetooth earphones, and it's almost all for calls (he's on the phone literally all day). Therefore call quality is much more important than high fidelity sound.

Can you recommend one for < $100?

    Jabra is a pretty good brand. You can often get the 65t for under $100.

    Does he need to block out office noise?

    Is he paying or work?

    Also prefer buds or over the ears?

    So many questions…

    • No office noise, working from home (thanks Gladys). He's paying. He prefers buds.

    Does he wear glasses? If so, get some with BT built in - Aliexpress has many, you just give them your prescription when you order.

    I use these in a call-centre environment.

    • Oh that's interesting!

      • These are not much heavier than regular glasses, and they are loud enough to work with.

        Plus, you don't have to stick anything in your ear canal. I find most of the buds end up being tight enough to cause irritation, or are too small and fall out.

        Can play music on them continuously for at least 5 hours.

        Only downside is they can only pair to one device at a time.

        Works with PC audio as well as phones.

        The Bose Frames are louder, but cost 2x more and are heavier and bulkier.

  • Samsung Galaxy buds live are like 120 on ebay and could get cheaper Buds+ on FB Market place.

    Nothing ears come out in a week, roughly 140-150. If you want the newest and coolest

  • the general consensus i got last time was to use a dedicated bluetooth headset/mic set as opposed to buds.

    I have the sony mark 3 in ears, and sound peats truefree and sound peats true engine and all 3 I get complaints about sounding muffled/far away which is a physical limitation on in-ear designs.
