So...trying to accommodate to gf's demands, here's a curve ball...which audio headset/earphones would you recommend that, while keeping good audio, sells also in PINK COLOR? Your average Sony XM, Sennheiser Momentum, Airpods etc...they all lack pink. Suggestions?

+1 for the Pro X. Great sound, decent mic, super comfortable!

Maybe a good pair of headphones and the careful application of some spray paint? Mask and holes or areas you don't want to colour, then apply several light coats until suitable pinkness is achieved. I suspect you'll get bonus points for personalisation.

Sorry, not good advice:

plastics and paints are usually incompatible-chemistries.

ABS can be painted, but you MUST be careful about which solvents are in the paint, e.g.

There is no point in trying to paint polypropylene, e.g.

I haven't had any issues painting most plastics with the general hobby type spray paints. I know there are some that'll fail or damage the surface, but I've had good results with Plastikote (other brands are available, etc).

I should probably have been more specific about using spray paints for plastics rather than general ones.

Soundcore Life Q35

These aren't aggressively pink but they're really nice.

I've got a (black) pair and really like them. I'm not sure what the comment below is talking about but I haven't installed any Anker apps and they work just fine for plug and play use.

I can't imagine someone whose deal breaking criteria is the color would care about audiophile-level controls on a pair of BT headphones.

If you have access to a 3D printer you can build the Headamame. You can make it the exact assortment of pinks your girlfriend likes.

They look great! Is there a already an Autoeq profile that headset?

[-] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago

I have no idea, I don't have them but I'm thinking about building them when I have the time.

[-] jasep@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Maybe a DBrand skin for Airpods?

I'm sure beats have a pink headphone... They are of the highest quality. /s!!!!!!!!

Tho.... Is she an audiophile? Probably not if she's Bluetoothing. Beats might be an option. As shitty as that option might be.

Edit: Apparently they have gotten better... https://www.reddit.com/r/headphones/comments/uofqp4/whats_so_bad_about_beats_headphones/

I had a bad experience with the Bluetooth on Sennheiser and got so frustrated I broke them into little pieces and threw them away. I've since bought two pairs of Bang & Olufsen and have been happy. It seems they have a sort of light pink on at least one of the models

[-] Metju@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Seconding this. B&O know their stuff when it comes to sound (though I'd avoid TWS due to having bad experience with them myself); currently rocking HX, seem to work fine

[-] raef@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That's what I upgraded to a year or two ago. Handles switching input sources no problem; something the Sennheisers couldn't do

They're more a status symbol than a quality headphone, but Beats and Bose definitely both come in pink.

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Maybe something from V-moda, not entirely pink but should have pink shields

[-] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Shockz bone conducting headphones have a two tone pink version of their high end Openrun Pro and their lower end Openmove has a pink/white version.

It is nice to hear music but still hear your surroundings for safety.

[-] Toes@ani.social 2 points 2 years ago

Razer has some like that.

[-] pricklypearbear@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Heard that galaxy buds are pretty balance when it comes to sound. They also have a pink color....I think.

SoundCore Q30 with Oluv’s EQ is probably the best you can get if you care at all about sound neutrality. You want the Q30 specifically, all the other models can’t be saved even with EQ.

[-] Teal@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Here’s a list from a Best Buy search. Even if you prefer to shop elsewhere it gives a list of several pink headphones and earbuds.

Pink headphones

If she does any gaming Astro (owned by Logitech) used to have pink versions of some headsets.

There are companies who paint AirPods for you like this: https://as2.ae/airpods-pro-pink/
