They’re kind of a steal.
Some would say that the invention of awesome products like Apple’s AirPods represent a peak accomplishment when it comes to technology, but honestly, it’s kind of equally impressive when some other company figures out how to do damn near the same thing for a tiny fraction of the price.
$200 high-end headphones are one thing. $10 headphones that feel remarkably similar and work generally the same? Now that’s innovation.
Today’s deal is for the $10 variety, with bonus points for their manufacturer, Aukey, who make pretty good stuff. You get the same basic concept as high-end earbuds, including some nice-to-haves like a variety of ear tip sizes and even a four-dot LED charge level indicator that even Apple’s case doesn’t have.
But yeah. They look similar, the work in much the same way, and you aren’t going to be heartbroken if a set walks off on you or you drop one behind the couch never to be seen again.
Not bad for ten bucks.
