Decent quality AirPods that aren't AirPods?

Can any recommend any that are high quality but not as expensive as AirPods? I want some for the gym but don't want to spend AirPods money. I'd also like to get some for my DH for Christmas but he wouldn't thank me for spending that much either.
Quality important tho, so wouldn't want anything too cheap and tinny either Thank you .
Even if someone has already mentioned your recommendation, please would you comment so I can see if there is a popular option. Also, if someone recommends something you've found not to be great quality, please would you also say. Thanks

My husband has the Galaxy Buds Pro. I tried them yesterday for the 1st time and was very impressed. I just googled the price and was a bit 😩 but he reminded me he got them at the CEX for £70. I liked how they block sound out, but when I started speaking they turned the volume of my music down.

Cambridge Audio Melomania+ - got some as a present recently and they’re bloody brilliant. Memory foam earbuds mean they block out sound, great secure fit, amazing audio (though I mainly use for audiobooks) battery case charges them 4 times and they were on offer for under £40. Great App, with a
locator when they’re not with you and British made too which makes a change!

I've got some Sony ones, no complaints on sound quality etc. Noise cancelling good, microphone good & easy to use.

However, you can't have them paired at the same time to 2 devices. You have to unpair, then reconnect between phone and laptop.

They were about £50 from Argos, there are a more expensive Sony ones, but then you may as well get Airpods Or Galaxy pods.

I’ve got some Jabra in ear headphones and would replace with the same again. On offer for £80 here
