Airpod equivalents?

DD is getting an iPad for her joint birthday/Xmas present and I'd like to get her some air pods but they are so expensive! Does anyone know of a decent equivalent? Thank You! Smile

I bought the cheap look a likes but honestly they were awful and ended up getting the apple ones. However argos and various others do bluetooth ear pods which look ok, all i can suggest at this point is google and reading reviews

Thanks that's what I'll do, was just hoping for some personal recommendations! Will keep an eye out for potential black Friday bargains too 🤞

A few friends that have tried the equivalents advised me against it.
I've bought the real ones from qvc as they were available on three interest free instalments.

I bought some airpods from Currys Ebay store when there was 10% off
The alternatives I tried were pretty awful yet I hate to admit the Apple ones are far superior.

Apparently the £15 ones on Amazon are good. Thinking of giving them a go for DD who will no doubt lose one of them at some point anyway!

Thank you all, I think I'll see if there are any deals on the real ones, maybe the older models. Don't want to keep paying out on cheap ones if they are crap!

We’ve all got sub £20 versions here and they’re fine. Mine are i11 something or others, ds has some that were a fiver off the market and dh has Xiaomi ones. The Xiaomi ones are the nicest imo.

YES! I found some!! I got my son some of these back in the summer and found a 25% off code just by googling as well. I have to say they are near identical to Airpods (which my other son owns from last Xmas already) and they are still going strong. You have to get the 2 version new for 2019 and not the first version though. Box is slightly flimsier, but the actual bits that go in your ears are EXACTLY the same and my label loving 17 year old DS loves them.

AirPods reduced in amazon today

Had anyone tried the ones from Cocospace, they keep popping up on my FB feed but not sure whether to risk them, I'd love to buy the apple ones for my teens but just can't justify that sort of money even with them being reduced on Amazon today.

I have the coco space ones there very good well worth the money
