Baseus - Bowie MC1 Pro Open Ear Clip-On Headphones

Wow. I may try them. How is the transparency? I have the MC1 Pro and have been blown away. This Baseus brand has come out of nowhere. I have seen them around but they have hit some home runs lately.

If you are already wearing earmuffs or whatever for work, consider the only IP67 rated buds...but they are CLIP style...the Baseus Bowie MC1 Pro. I have them and they are great. I have been using earbuds for about 5 years now and I really like the clip style. My daily drivers are the Huawei FreeClip, but they are $200. The MC1 Pro are about $70 or less on sale. They retail for $90 but you shouldn't have to pay that much. If you need great ANC, call quality, and moisture protection, someone already mentioned the Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2...that is everything all in one. Probably can't go wrong with them, honestly.

Do you care about ANC even? If not, may want to consider Clip style. I have the Huawei FreeClip and they are amazing, with the most comfortable fit you can imagine. If doesn't even feel like you are wearing anything. And they last 9+ hours. I also have the Baseus MC1 Pro, and they are also great, but maybe a 7-8 out of 10, and the FreeClip are a 9 out of 10. They are both completely open, and let all noise from the outside in...seriously...you don't even realize you are wearing them they are THAT comfortable. They are actually SO comfortable, it is hard to even use earbuds that go IN your ear after you wear these for awhile.

I have the FreeClip and MC1 Pro. They are both amazing. I may get the XC1 as they look to check all my boxes.

Hmmm...interesting. I have the MC1 Pros and that sort of sucks...as I was highly thinking about getting these. I had the Aeroclips for a couple days when they came out and they sounded amazing...but they were SO TIGHT they hurt like HECK after about 30 min. That was the same with the first pair of MC1 Pros I tried, but I returned them and got another pair (and my current daily drivers) and they have been perfect. I also have the Huawei FreeClip and they are amazingly comfortable...those got me into the "Clip" style. They just announced the FreeClip 2 as well, but if you are in the US you would have no idea as Huawei has been taken off all online stores unfortunately.

I have tried all three, and I still have the MC1 Pro. They are way better than the other two in my opinion. However they definitely aren't that cheap. I was blessed to get them for $43 a couple months ago on Amazon with a couple coupons. They are on sale right now for $63, and that is the cheapest you will normally get them for. However...I also had the normal MC1 and those are still better than these two Soundpeats options in my opinion. Better call quality, sound, battery life (the Soundpeats actually have crap battery life which makes no sense to me as these don't exactly have ANC...)...to me l, everything about both the MC1 and MC1 Pro is better than the Soundpeats. Oh yeah...and you have to log into the Soundpeats app to update them and other crap. You have to log into the Baseus app if you want to have the Find My feature, but I don't care about that. As a matter of fact...I also had the Baseus BC1...and those are ALSO better than the Soundpeats...and they are almost $30 or less.

I haven’t used all you mentioned, but I compared soundcore and ended up with Baseus mc1 pro, they're really comfortable.

You could try Baseus MC1 which I used recently, mostly for audiobooks while walking or doing stuff around the house. It's perfect for long-time wearing cause It’s an open ear style that just clips on the outside of your ear, so nothing goes in and it’s super comfortable even after hours. It’s IP57 rated, so I don’t worry about sweat or a bit of rain. Battery’s solid and I never feel ear fatigue like I used to with in ear buds. I think I paid around 70 bucks, but they may have deals around PD.

you can try clip-on earbud, they might be exactly what you're looking for. I have Baseus MC1 Pro, and they hook around the outside of your ear without going into the ear canal at all. The fit’s really secure, even during movement and they stay in place comfortably for hours. No tips, no pressure, and nothing pushing into your ear. They’re wireless, have great sound (especially with LDAC), and I’ve had zero issues with them slipping or feeling loose. Definitely worth checking out if nothing in-ear has worked for you.

I have a pair of their MC1 Pros that I'll use for running or cycling instead. Much more secure, yet still very comfortable. Can often be found on sale for around $60 at Amazon. BTW, Baseus does have extended protection for $10 called Baseus Inspire Care+. As long as you still have your charging case, you can get Inspire replacement earbuds (one or both) for 50% off if lost. I purchased that when I developed concerns about losing them off my ears. I think it's going to give me enough confidence to keep the Inspires anyway. I stress the word "think", though because I haven't 100% made up my mind.

I have the same issue. Using Baseus Bowie MC1 and Soundpeats Pop Clip. They get closer to my canals. Light and comfortable. They both have mechanical control buttons rather than touch. For me that's a bonus. The sound quality is what I expect from this style.

The Baseus Bowie MC1 are comfortable and have precise mechanical button controls. They clip on your ears. Less bass than regular buds. Good for daily casual listening

I have the Popclips and Baseus Bowie MC1. Both are very good but with decent mid bass but littke deep bass. Very listenable. Both have good mechanical control button. Both have decent apps to update firmware and adjust sound eq. Monster has no app.

Soundpeats Pop Clip and Baseus Bowie MC1 are similar in sound, fit, price and both have mechanical buttons instead of touch. I have and like both for podcasts, audiobooks, calls and casual music. Not sure which I prefer. Maybe the Soundpeats are a bit louder. Either are worth a try. Soundpeats PearlClip Pro are good too. Thicker and heavier. Better for music. Touch controls that aren't as precise. Look for deals. I haven't tried the new Soundcores because they're over $100. This type will never be that good for music so I stay cheap.

I have all 3. The Baseus Bowie MC1 Pro have physical button controls, LDAC and Bluetooth 6.0. I favor them. Be sure the quote is for the Pro model rather than the plain MC1. The price seems to low.

I’m using the Baseus MC1 right now. they’re super lightweight. I usually wear them around the house when I’m doing chores or listening to podcasts and music. I can have them on for hours and they never feel uncomfortable. The sound honestly surprised me. You won’t get that deep in ear bass, but the low end is definitely there and overall it sounds well-balanced. Vocals and instruments come through clearly. I got them for around $60, so a bit over your budget, but for the comfort and build quality I think they’re totally worth it. A lot of cheaper open ear buds tend to be unstable and fall off easily. If you plan to wear them for long stretches, it’s probably better to invest in something that stays in place and feels good. These have become my go to when I want background music without completely tuning out the world.

I’d suggest checking out the Baseus MC1 Pro. It’s a clip on style that doesn’t go in your ears at all. instead it wraps around the outside, which makes a huge difference for comfort, especially during longer sessions. I use them for workouts and they stay in place really well without any pressure. Sound’s solid too, and they’re under $200. lightweight but won’t bug your ears during exercise.

If you're interested in trying clip on earbuds I have the Baseus Bowie MC1 and they've been great for me while taking calls around the house I have not had a call when on a run yet though [this video ](https://youtu.be/6ItzlAJahg0?si=rnkeddXonL51fYxz) will probably help you pick a clip on if you're interested

There have been 1 or 2 calls where background noise was a bit annoying to the other person but that was in town whilst it was busy overall it's been better than a majority of earbuds I've owned and definitely better than the other clip on earbuds I've tried second place probably being the mc1 though I had to fully switch to my phone a few times

baseus Bowie mc1 pro I've had them I've had the inspire and the mc1 and I've been happy with both for their price the sound on the inspire is slightly better but for what you are paying on t mc1 pro is awesome

good day! could you please tell more about comparison of c40i and mc1? I have mc1, they’re quite good for me, but I feel like c40i could be better but I’m not sure
