Final Audio ZE3000
The best no-frills model for Android users (that I've tried) Seriously, the only feature these have is that they sound good with everything, but that's a good enough feature that I can daily drive these and not feel FOMO
JBL Soundgear Frames
Very impressed with these for background music and handsfree calls when I'm outside. Prescription lenses can also be swapped in if you need glasses to see better, they also come in a "square" design.
HidrateSpark PRO STEEL - 21 oz. Smart Water Bottle + Bonus Straw Lid - Silver
My recommendations for people who need music listening devices.
Plugfones Liberate 2.0
I've had these for two summers now and can confirm they can withstand hours and hours of use and abuse while I'm doing machine work in the garden. Bumpin' bass, actual all day battery life, up to 29dB of noise reduction.

NTH-100 | Professional Over-Ear Headphones | RØDE
The new gold standard for anyone wanting a full-size, closed back headphone that is impeccably crafted, sounds outstanding and won't break the bank. Cable is a bit long for portable listening but they do sell a short one
AirPods Pro 2
If you have an iPhone, honestly just buy these. They'll do the best job for the price with an Apple device. if you want to go nuts instead, get the Hifiman Svanar Wireless for 4x the price.
Shokz OpenFit
Wore these throughout our 2024 eurotrip. They have a decent helping of bass and almost all-day battery. I recommend them if you like mountain biking with music on.

Places I've gone for Coffee that I'd recommend to other people
Dispensary Cafes - Dunedin
Highly rate the Albany Street coffee shop if you're a Uni staffer or otherwise working in the central part of Campus
Fluid Espresso
Highly recommended if you work around the Business School or the Polytech on Union. Also a great place to find quality Drinkware.
Asia’s first Audio Café | Audio Store Singapore | Zeppelin & Co.
Ngl, this one's niche af. Even if you just go there for the coffee you will not leave disappointed though. Great atmosphere, just a bit hard to find (hint, take the lift up to level 2)
The Shelf – High Street Auckland
A must-visit every time I'm working in Auckland! Their breakfast and coffee is like a warm hug.
Kohvik Maiasmokk Eesti vanim kohvik aastast 1864
I'm not saying go all the way to Eatonia just for a coffee, but if you're there and you're in the capital you'd low-key be a fool to not stop by here. Just don't trust Apple Maps' opening hours, they're wrong.
