I am looking for good Bluetooth earbuds as my Raycon case just will not hold a charge (and it hasn't even been 6 months). I thought Raycon was supposed to be a quality brand, but I have lately heard people say that they are not any good.
I don't want an Apple product as I have an Android phone.
The problem is that all the reviews on Amazon look pretty fake to me (some of them have 99% 5* reviews and the text looks like AI-generated slop), and there are about a billion brands of earbuds out there that drastically vary in price.
I am searching for something that costs less than $65.
The features that matter most to me are comfort and being waterproof. I use them primarily for audiobooks.

What's the Difference Between Bluetooth Headsets and Headphones?
Stereo headphones aren't just for listening to music; they also make calls, often quite well. So, if you're thinking about some wireless headphones to rock out to, you might not need a separate Bluetooth headset. Remember that stereo headphones can sometimes be bulky and might not block distracting environmental noises competently.
By contrast, the stereo headsets in this roundup are lighter and often have boom mics that easily isolate your voice. We compare the two options more decisively in our roundup of the best headsets and headphones for your home office.
How Much Should You Spend on a Bluetooth Headset?
The sweet spot for a mono Bluetooth headset is around $100, and if you shop around, you can often find discounts that lower the price slightly. A quality stereo headset generally runs between $150 and $300. The headsets in this roundup are on the high end of that price range because we focused on the absolute best-performing devices for people who rely on their headsets all day.
You can often find a decent (or even excellent) headset for under $50 because they tend to remain in retail channels for a long time after the manufacturer discontinues them. Cheaper Jabra, Motorola, and Poly headsets work fine; they just aren't up to the performance standards of the more expensive category leaders. Typically, they are a bit clunkier and don't offer as effective noise cancellation, but then again, you aren't paying a premium for them.

My father takes a lot of calls — during the day, in the lab, around machines, even while driving. So I’ve been planning on getting him something small, not in-ear, with good battery life and a strong mic that can handle loud environments (like next to engines, vacuum pumps, etc.).
I personally use AirPods for noise cancelation, but that’s not really his thing.
Don’t care about budget, just want something that’s good quality and built for this kind of use.
Figured some of you older folks might know something I don’t, despite all the research. Any suggestions?
EDIT: I forgot to mention , my dad wears glasses , so I feel like if it sits on the back of his ear, might not be comfortable. Maybe some of you might know the struggle .
Hey everyone!
I'm looking for some good, durable Bluetooth headphones for Android that have a long-lasting battery and maintain good performance over time.
I mainly use them for work, on the bus, and for walks, so comfort would also be a big plus.
Any recommendations for brands/models worth considering?
Thanks in advance!
