earbuds
Tiny personal speakers
Earbuds are small headphones that fit inside or just outside the ear canal, typically connected by a cord or wirelessly via Bluetooth.
They're compact and portable, favored for listening to music or taking calls while commuting, exercising, or working: I can't find my earbuds anywhere.
Also called earphones or in-ears.
