Hi there,
here are some MEIZU EP51 Sports Bluetooth Earphones for you. Great as a gift or to spoil yourself.
The MEIZU EP51 are very clear sounding Bluetooth earphones that provide never congested vocals, bright/detailed highs and amazingly balanced bass. Their super comfortable, yet secure fit (among other features) make them classify into 2 of our Top Charts: Best Sports Earphones and Most Comfortable Earphones Chart.
• IPX4 waterproof degree, free to do sports even for heavy sweat.
• Bluetooth connection, no wire's trouble while exercising.
• Nano water resistance layer, anti-sweat, more durable to use.
• Ergonomic designed earbud tips, ultra-soft, very comfortable to wear.
• Drive-by-wire, with microphone and volume control.

The back of the package shows some fading, please see on the photo.

If you like them, it would be great if you can pick it up in Titahi Bay.
Thanks, and Cheers, Anke
