Headphones or Earbuds?

[Palkia]

Earbuds/Inner-ear headphones are quite painful to use and break easily. Their only real features are the portability and the lack of sound bleed.

I use a pair of Skullcandy Navigator headphones that I picked up recently (by recently, I mean literally today.) and they work quite nicely; they have good bass and are compact enough to store away in a desk cabinet. Before that I had a bunch of sub-£20 headphones that were just all wastes of time as they would break easily.

It's much more economic to buy one good pair of expensive headphones rather than replacing a cheap pair every other month.

I have a pair of Sony headphones and some Apple earpods.

I basically use my headphones at home, when I'm not on the move, or anything.

When I'm on a vehicle, at school during lunch, or doing some form of exercise, it's earphones for me.

I don't like the sound bleed from my headphones.

And yeah, I never use my speakers. Otherwise people (especially my parents) will hear my Level Upper the lectures that I listen to. And the sound of people talking nonsensical tech lingo is pretty distracting if you don't understand it.

I prefer headphones because my ears are shaped in such a way that earbuds never stay in. Also I heard earbuds are worse for hearing, so I just use regular sony headphones :/

Headphones, since earbuds constantly slip out of my ears if I make even the slightest movement. I prefer to use headphones that fit around my ears because of how comfortable they are and the way the distribute sound around your ear :)

I use earbuds because they're much more portable and comfortable for me.

I haven't actually used headphones for listening to music before. The only time I really use headphones is for gaming online. I should really get some headphones for listening to music, but I'm so used to earbuds that I don't think it's going to happen.

Earbuds do it better for me. Headphones with big sides I have used before, and they're alright but I prefer the lighter cords to hold on to. But headphones are bulkier, admittedly.

I usually wear headphones, because earbuds hurt my ears a lot. My headphones look awesome, and they block out some noise which is useful. :3

So pick your poison, basically? Okay ahaha, well, both have their negative traits. Earbuds can be a pain on the ears, literally, and if they're not a snug fit, they will fall out, and that can become ridiculously frustrating. Headphones, on the other hand, are big and bulky, and that can be a dealbreaker in certain scenarios. My personal pick is earphones, because good earphones are usually cheaper than good headphones. I just wish I didn't lose them so often.

Headphones because they don't hurt my ears like earbuds do.

I'm in the middle. I mean, most earbuds suck anyway compared to headphones, but if I'm going to sleep or something. earbuds are a more optimal choice if I want to use them while sleeping.

Shout out to the earphone department though: https://www.amazon.com/Technica-ATH-EQ300M-SV-Ear-Fit-Headphones/dp/B001DDEJLE

I just got them and they're really nice for what I paid for them. #Persona3EarphonesRepresent

I prefer earbuds because they are easier to carry around.
