Hi All,

I was faffing around with a hub attached to the ipad, and normal 3.5mm apple earphones plugged into that.

worked ok-ish, but wasn’t greatest setup
- connector into connector wobblyness
- earphones didn’t work all the time and kept having to unplug and plug back in, with sounds annoying the other half while i got it set up


Ok, decided on getting USB-C earphones to plug directly in, and hopefully workS 1st time every time.

After looking at a few reviews - spend a decent amount to make sure decent quality and they last etc etc

I got the google ones in the end:



1st impressions:
used 3 times now:

Pros:
- Works 1st time every time
- Comfortable in ears
- Good sound quality
- Buttons work - Pause, sound up and down!


Cons:
- Lead a bit short
- no travel pouch
- Packaging really cheap - if eco idea, fine, but did make me think they were fakes.... not so according to other reviews online about the packaging.



hope the above helps

Regards
Martin

PS:
I’ve finally got some time to tap Away - practicing my MK typing If nothing else.
