I need some new earbuds, and live in a place with severe winters. I want to be able to access the controls using gloves or mittens if possible.
The online reviews I’ve seen all assume that you can just touch the earbuds with bare hands, but when it’s well below freezing, that sometimes isn’t possible. If I have to take off a mitt to use my earbuds my hand might not warm up until I can get back indoors again. Earbuds that work with touchscreen-capable gloves aren’t good enough either. I’ve never seen touchscreen-capable gloves that keep your hands warm at -40C.
Any suggestions?
I have several pairs of anker earbuds, one wireless and one semi wireless (connected to each other, not the device). They either have a little control panel/remote with buttons connected, or you can tap the top or bottom of the bud with a bit of pressure to change certain things (next song/volume, ect)
Is the control panel wired to the buds? One solution I’ve considered is getting a small remote that I could keep inside my glove, but if it’s wired I don’t think that would work.
If you know what model they are I’d be interested in learning more.
It was attached, and they ate a few years old, and I don’t see them anywhere on their website. They are similar to these ones but not exactly what you are looking for. Good luck searching
