'Couldn't hear the mower': These 'great little earbuds' are down to $22

Earbuds are readily available everywhere you turn, which is both a blessing and a curse. With so many options, it can be tough to figure out which ones you should try — but when you come across a pair that's basically waterproof, has 50 hours of battery life and is nearly 90% off, it's hard to say no to the Hkerr Bluetooth Earbuds. For a limited time, they're down from $200 to just $22. Our advice? Say yes!

Why is this a good deal? 💰

Now, we haven't seen these earbuds priced at $200, but even so, just $22 is a stunning steal for quality listening devices.

Why do I need these? 🤔

The Hkerr Wireless Buds come with a similar design to AirPod Pros, featuring a half-in-ear design. The silicon ear tip ensures a tighter fit and a better seal to improve both sound quality and provide noise cancellation, although these aren't actively noise canceling. The secure fit keeps them from falling out, even if you're in the middle of a tough run.

Pairing is simple too — as easy as a single step, you might say. Your device should detect these earbuds when you open the case, and you can choose to connect them through the Bluetooth menu. After that, the buds will automatically connect whenever you open the case and slide them into your ears. They come with 12mm drivers for clear sound quality on both ends of the spectrum, treble and bass.

The battery life is also impressive, with a total of 50 hours of playback time when paired with the charging case. These are also IPX7 waterproof, which means you can wear them out in the rain or get a bit sweaty without worry — though you probably shouldn't take a shower while wearing them. Oh, did we mention the case has a built-in LED that displays the amount of charge that's left?

Should something go wrong, these come with a 30-day money-back guarantee and/or a free replacement.

What reviewers say 💬

More than 1,000 reviewers have given these buddies a five-star rating, with over 500 sold in the past month.

Pros 👍

"Amazing quality," raved a five-star fan. "These earbuds are genuinely some of the best I've ever purchased, the quality is truly outstanding. The packaging is sleek and the fit is comfortable."

"I have had many earbuds, and most of them are either too bulky or they fall out of my ear very easily. These earbuds fit comfortably and feel stable," said one happy reviewer. "The sound is clear and can go pretty loud. The sensors aren’t annoyingly sensitive. In the past with some earbuds, with the tiniest touch the songs start skipping everywhere, volume goes up and down, and most times I hit it by mistake. The sensor on these is nice. ... At this price point, for what you’re getting, you would be crazy not to buy these!"

"These are great little earbuds!" gushed a gardener. "I really like the power charge display, giving the percentage of charge. These made a believer of me when I mowed the yard last week (electric mower) and couldn't hear the mower. I've worn them on walks and they block all outside noise. I liked them so much I immediately bought a pair for my wife and a backup pair."

A final fan touted its waterproof qualities: "I mainly ordered these because they said they were waterproof and they have proven themselves to be truly waterproof. I have used them in light rain and during sweaty workouts, and they have held up well without any issues."

Cons 👎

"Lasted a bit over a year," reported this shopper. "Loved these. The fit is great and they stay on while running. Sound is really good for the price. The problem is one earbud stopped charging."

"Great sound quality, short battery life," said another. "Depending on use, I have to charge them every one to two days." However, they said, "Would purchase again!"
