Previously using Sennheiser CX Sport which have finally died. Looking for a alternative for no more than £150. Preferably USB C charging rather than micro usb like my CX sports.
Did look at Beats Studio but don’t have great reviews. AirPods don’t fit in my ear and the pro are far too expensive.
Like deep powerful bass as I’m very much into four to the floor Trance and House.
Won’t be used for sporting activities just around the house listening, cutting the lawn and for lying by the pool on holiday.

Which AirPods have you tried, the original and AirPods 2 weren’t a good fit for me but the AirPods 3 are perfect. If you’ve only tried the earlier ones, it might be worth testing the 3.
 
AirPods Pro can be had now for £160 from the same retailer via their eBay store using the code HOT15

Apple AirPods Pro - White Active Noise Cancelling MWP22ZM/A 190199246850 | eBay

Just like AirPods, AirPods Pro connect like magic to your iPhone or Apple Watch. And they're ready to use straight out of the case. AirPods Pro use two microphones, an outward-facing microphone and an inward-facing microphone, to create superior noise cancellation.

I’d go for the pros at that price it’s a steal.

They’re superior, I found the original airpods fit not to bad but the pro are great. Don’t feel like I’ve got them in half the time.
 
Check out the Nothing Ear1's!
I have a pair and they really do the job well that I use them for. From a sound perspective they're pretty good.
Not great but I don't expect something at this size and price to be great. For reference I have a pair of over head Sony WH-XM's which are my go to for focused work, noise cancellation etc, so I was looking for some wireless earbuds that could fill the gap when the Sony's are inconvenient.

I couldn't justify the price of a pair of Airpod Pro's so at 100 the Nothing's offered at least on paper everything I was after, and I like supporting a new tech company who is trying to do something a bit different even if that's primarily in design right now!
 
Ended up with a pair of sony wf1000xm4. Beautiful sound quality from them. More expensive but sound amazing. Easy enough to connect to iOS using the app.
