I can see why these were only $40. They are really buggy and their shape is such that it’s incredibly difficult to get a good seal in the ears. And that’s with 3rd party, high-quality eartips.
Good grief, I’m not sure $40 is worth it.

Just an update to using these Philips earbuds:
I turned off LDAC and they aren’t buggy now. With LDAC on the signal would break up and the sound would change. With LDAC off, that isn’t happening now.
I also managed to come up with a set of eartips from my Panasonic earbuds that are helping to keep an acceptable seal in my ears. But not even they are making these strangely shaped earbuds feel acceptably secure. I have to fiddle with the earbuds once in awhile to keep them feeling secure enough.
I have a lot of earbuds and tried a bunch of eartips. I also have some 3rd party-made eartips…like the SpinFit ones…and none of them really did much good. So far I’m hoping these Panasonic eartips will do the trick
