For £100 or less which IEM / earbuds would you buy?

This will be just for listening to music on iPhone 12

I listen to hiphop and rnb music so a good punchy bass is important

Which earbuds / IEMs would you buy based on my usage, for under £100/$130

For your genres, get this one:

Thank you, but are there any other recommendations as I'm not too keen on the look
I prefer black slim earphones

Ideally, I'm looking for a similar quality pair of earphones like the 1more quad driver but with removable headphone cables, as I have read their customer service is appalling and that the headphone cables are likely to stop working

Reecho SG03 and Audiosense AQ0 for a budget pair of IEMs with satisfying bass. Haven’t heard them myself (they’re on my list) but they’ve had good feedback in the forum.

I like the Jabra 75t. List price may be higher than what you posted but can often get them cheaper.

The BQEYZ Summer is now only offered in 2.5mm/4.4mm balanced, so here is the BQEYZ Spring as well:

Thanks for the suggestions,

I'm still on the search, what do you think of these shure SE215 earphones?
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Shure-AONIC-215-Detachable-Compatible-Black/dp/B08FCV594J/ref=sr_1_8?crid=A1LOVI4WFIB5&keywords=shure+215&qid=1639692419&s=electronics&sprefix=sgure+2,electronics,100&sr=1-8&th=1

As I'm new to IEMs , Is shure the equivalent to Bose in this market? I'm paying for the name and not necessarily the audio quality?
Any other suggestions for under £100?

i searched on the forum these earphones which seem appealing but I can't can't decide which one to choose out of them all:
Fiio FD1 and FD3
MEE P1 and M6
Shure SE215

Shure is better than Bose, but the cut-rate Chinese manufacturers have been gaining on older manufacturers like Shure. One under-$100 model that gets a lot of love here is the Moondrop Aria. I haven't heard it but a lot of reviews consider it the best under $100.

It's $80 on headphones.com and on Amazon.

If you can find a place that accepts returns -- not everyone likes the deep fit -- the Etymotic ER2XR is also a $100 contender.

Yes, Moondrop Aria is outstanding value at $80. It is well made, includes a decent cable and tips, and sounds nice with just about everything. I listen to plenty bass-heavy music, and while not a canon, the Aria dynamic driver gives you enough punch down low while not overpowering the mids or treble.

I mostly use mine plugged direct into iPad for listening to music, Netflix etc and it is great. And using it with the cheap Apple dongle with an iPhone is also very satisfying, at times it makes me question why I have other more expensive gear. Then I listen to that gear and I remember why I have it, but still, the Aria is very nice for the price.

The Shozy form1.1 is my best sounding hybrid for less that $100.00.

Yah, the Form1.1 is also a fine choice in the price range.

If I had to pick between it and Aria, I'd go with Aria for it's more 'correct' tuning, but the Form1.1's more V-shape tuning has its place. I found it's treble to be just a little too much at times, but foam tips tame that a bit when I am using them at the gym.
