Battle of the: Aukey Bluetooth Headphones

Aukey sent me 3 of their Bluetooth Headphones to try out and review and I decided to compare them all right here, right now! Here are the 3 items:

AUKEY Bluetooth Headphones, Secure-fit Wireless Headphones with Built-in Remote & Mic

The first pair are the picture on the top left. At the moment they are the cheapest of the three and they are actually my favorite pair. I love the black and bright green combination. They definitely can fit snuggly in you ear which means you are separated from the outside world-- most or all background noise is eliminated! I find it hard to use the mic in this setting because it feels weird to talk and not hear yourself doing it (?) Is that weird?

Anyhow, this pair actually comes with a lot of extras:

- USB Charging Cable (of course!)
- 3 sets of ear tips
- 3 sets of secure fit ear hooks
​- awesome storage bag! 

They really want these to fit you right so you can enjoy them.

Of course there is a user manual and by the way, it comes with a 24 month warranty!! 

AUKEY EP-B18 Wireless Bluetooth Headset with Built-in Mic

I thought I was going to like these more. (See them in the middle picture above.) Sometimes you want people to know you are occupied... Having headphone that can be obviously seen from a distance are ideal for this. However, I found that these got loose on my head somehow. As I wore them, they kept sliding down. Also the padding on the ear zones was nice at first, but later it kinda made my ears hurt. Bummer. 

This ones comes with:

- USB Charging Cable
- User Manual
- 3.5mm Aux Cable
- 24 months warranty

AUKEY Bluetooth Earbuds, Wireless Sweatproof Sport Headphones for Running Gym Exercise with Built-in Mic, 8 Hours Talk Time & 160 Hours Standby - Green

Finally, we come to the picture on the far right at the top of this post. The sweat proof sport headphones. Again, I love the color combination of the black and green. They fit in my ear fine, but, without any sound on, if I move my head around I can really hear that movement, I think because of the stiffened (sweat proof) style. Still, they are a good option.

They come with:

- Micro-USB cable
- 4 pairs of ear tips
- Carrying pouch
- User manual
​- 24 months warranty

Who Wins The Battle?

For my personal needs, taste, and ears....

I definitely choose the first ones. Here is my ranking order:

1. AUKEY Bluetooth Headphones, Secure-fit Wireless Headphones with Built-in Remote & Mic
2. AUKEY Bluetooth Earbuds, Wireless Sweatproof Sport Headphones for Running Gym Exercise with Built-in Mic, 8 Hours Talk Time & 160 Hours Standby - Green
​3. AUKEY EP-B18 Wireless Bluetooth Headset with Built-in Mic

The built in mic on any of them is a nice feature to have and I will use that occasionally, but not my main use. My main use it to listen tomusic and audiobook files, or to use when streaming something like Netflix or Amazon Video on my iPad . This makes the ear buds most convenient for me, especially the first pair since they block out the surrounding noises so well. It's nice to be able to listen to what you need to or want to, without disturbing others around you. If I am working on language learning, for instance, no one else has to hear the undistinguishable sounds of a very foreign language while they are trying to concentrate on what they need to do personally. It's a win-win for all. 

It's wonderful that all Aukey products have a 24 month warranty and their customer service is truly very good, so don't be afraid to get in touch!
