It’s possible to find surprisingly decent Bluetooth earphones for well under $100. Aukey’s EP-B40 Latitude Wireless Earphones are proof positive of this. However, for every pair of great, inexpensive earbuds you’ll run across, you’re sure to discover 50 pairs that aren’t worth their asking price.
Audio-Technica’s ATH-CKS550XBT Solid Bass Wireless In-Ear Headphones fall into this latter category. At $79, they come with far too many quirks and compromises to recommend.
