Amazon shoppers say these earphones cheaper than AirPods are 'the best' for fitness
Summer is on the horizon, and if shoppers are on a fitness push before their holiday, these earbuds could be worth looking at. The Soundcore V20i are a pair of earphones that are ideal for runs - or even jobs around the house - at a price of £30.
That's thanks to Amazon's price drop, the pair usually retails for £50, but shoppers can get the £20 saving this week. The pair of open-ear earphones has a decent connection and clear playback.
They also easily rotate, which helps listeners find the best fit for their ears. The V20i open-ear earbuds offer boosted stability and comfort, so users can listen and move freely throughout the day.
Fitness fans can also enjoy clear calls with four mics and an AI algorithm, meaning the V20i open-ear headphones ensure crisp and clear calls wherever they are.
One important thing to note is that the V20i are open-ear earphones, meaning there's no noise-cancelling, which could be a downside to anyone looking to use the pair on a noisy commute, for example.
Alternatively, shoppers can pick up the JBL Tune Beam Wireless Bluetooth Noise-Cancelling Earbuds in black for £79.99 from Currys. However, consumers looking for a product with a higher price tag and better quality than both the Anker and JBL options can consider the Apple AirPods Pro 2, which are now £219 at Amazon.
Shoppers have also been raving over the Soundcore earbuds during reviews. One shopper said: "Wow, I love these headphones, I have a couple of wireless in-ear buds, but these are just so much better.
"I wear glasses, fit is no problem, very comfortable, and the sound is so much better than I thought possible for this type of unit.
"In use, you have really good awareness of everything around you, you can have a conversation with them and hear traffic as you walk.
"The best earphones I've had. My daughter used them on a run, and now she has a pair as well. Unbeatable price for what you get, app is easy to use and you can easily configure the ear tap response for prev, next, and volume."
Another shopper said: "Good sound with these earphones. There's a range of sound options in the Soundcore app, they are safer to use on the go as you can hear what's going on around you unlike the in the ear earphones which block out external sound, very easy to set up with the app".
However, not everyone was pleased. Some complained about the comfort on their ears. One shopper added: "Average on comfort and clip style. Not bad but slightly uncomfortable for my ears. Fit is always subjective. However still keeping it as it's ok."

The deals website is offering discounts on refurbished Galaxy smartwatches Gymgoers and daily step-count fanatics know that smartwatches can cost upwards of £200, especially for leading brands such as Samsung and Apple. However, shoppers who don't mind choosing an older model can currently buy a refurbished Samsung Galaxy Smartwatch on Wowcher for £39. Samsung's Galaxy Watch Bluetooth 42mm SM-R810 automatically tracks more than 39 types of activities and comes complete with GPS, ideal for runners and those who enjoy long rambles.

Both grades offer fully functional devices, Wowcher says. The £39 option for the Samsung Galaxy Watch Bluetooth 42mm SM-R810 falls into the Grade B group. On Amazon, customers can find reviews of the fitness trackers. One person said: "Replaced a three-year-old edition and really like the new one. Battery life is really, really improved!"

Another stated a downside, saying: "Does not work with Samsung Pay, the app is not installed, and there is no Samsung Pay option in the Galaxy Wearable app." Shoppers who would prefer a newer model and don't mind paying the extra price can pick up a Samsung Galaxy Watch7 (40mm) for £239, usually £289.
