Two Bluetooth pairing modes means you can utilize standard pairing with both earbuds for an immersive listening experience, or single Bluetooth pairing where each earbud can be used individually. Two multi-functional buttons provide a hands-free experience, allowing you to play, pause, answer phone calls, and access Siri or Google Assistant with the touch of a button.
The 1More Earbuds come in four fun colours and normally retail for $110, but with today’s deal they ring in at just $70.
What shoppers are saying
With a solid 4-star rating from 3,500 customer reviews, this pair of wireless earbuds offers impressive value for money, sound quality and battery life.
“I've been looking for a really great wireless earbud set for awhile now, but I didn't want to break the bank [so] I thought I'd give these a try,” said one reviewer. “I'm glad I did. The sound quality is fantastic. It's almost as good as my professional monitor headphones, and the depth and clarity of the sound far surpassed my expectations.”
“Great listening experience when you put the earbuds on. The sound is very clear,” added another. “It is easy to bring it when going exercise, studying. The earbuds just fit the ear and are comfortable. The Bluetooth connects quickly and receive the signal fast. Excellent quality and design.”
The only downside to these earbuds appears to be that some reviewers have found the volume not loud enough for their needs.

“More affordable alternative to the popular wireless headphones. These shipped quickly and without issue. Love that there are customizable ear pieces so you can mix and match,” explained one review. “Volume is quieter than some of my other earphones, so if you’re someone who is hard of hearing or just likes to listen to things at an extremely high volume they may not be for you.”
The verdict
For under $100, these headphones are a great choice for listening to music and audiobooks, or taking video calls from home. Since they come in a variety of colours with cool metallic accents, they’re also a fashionable upgrade compared to many standard black or white versions on the market.
