These Waterproof Baseus Bass BC1 Open Earbuds Are Yours for Just $24

You do need to clip a coupon and enter a code, but this deal is well worth the work.

There is no shortage of options when you’re shopping for a new pair of wireless earbuds. There are so many choices that picking the right pair can be overwhelming. It helps to narrow things down to a couple of things: the price and the features. And if you’re looking for a bargain pair of open earbuds, look no further. The Baseus Bass BC1 earbuds are yours today for just $24.

Unfortunately, this deal does require that you do a little work. That starts with clipping the on-page coupon and ends with entering the discount code MLA98FI2 at checkout. Follow both of these steps to get the best price possible.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

One of the standout features of the Baseus Bass BC1 earbuds is their open design. Open earbuds are great for use in situations where you could benefit from still hearing what’s going on around you, like walking the streets. They’re also beneficial if you don’t like wearing in-ear buds, too.

These earbuds are also built with workouts in mind, and to that end, they’re IP55 water-resistant and designed to offer a snug fit when you’re on the move. You’ll also get a powerful, bassy sound and up to 38 hours of playtime per charge.

You get to choose between black and white earbuds when placing your order, so make sure to pick your preferred one. No matter which you choose, you’ll also be able to use these earbuds for making calls thanks to their built-in mics.
