Im looking for a shop that sells budget (but good quality) earphones. ie Ear Fun air pro 3 or other sub $100 earphones with good codecs etc?

The cheapest semi decent is all Im after. I have seen some good ones around $50-70 NZ, but they werent for sale in NZ.

EarFun Air Pro 3 - Review 2023 - PCMag Australia

(FYI, I was not sure where to put this post as there is no personal audio/Headphone sub forum, pls move if in the wrong place)

We have several pairs of Soundpeats BT earbuds in the household and they're very good value from Amazon Australia

Most device retailers have access to a few brands in the price range. You'll get what you pay for, of course.

I know you said NZ but for NZ$20 these Lenovo GM2 Pro 5.3 from aliexpress BT earbuds are good, infact I think amazing for $20.

Delivery is fast as well - about a week despite what the shipping time says is my experience the several times I have ordered or re-ordered them.

They have a noise cancelling version for a little more - never tried them so can't review - NZ$30.

I have a few pairs of the Anker Soundcore ones from AliExpress for under $100. Looks like they sell them at PB Tech now too, but for much more $$$

Whilst the difficult we can do immediately, the impossible takes a bit longer. However, miracles you will have to wait for.

Bought a set of these for my daughter a while back, but they wouldn't sit in her ears properly, so they sat around doing nothing. I took them and find they fit me perfectly and sound quality isn't too bad for the price.
