Recommendations for Bluetooth earphones for iPhone 7?

NFH

Yes, the Apple Air Pods would be good, but they're hardly reasonably priced. And they have a drawback, which is that if you want to talk quietly into the microphone, there's no easy way of holding the microphone in front of your mouth, unless maybe you can remove a pod from one ear.

The best for Apple is probably Apple: Apple Air Pods not yet released in U.K. as far as I know or at least the online Apple store is always "Currently Unavailable" as is the Apple store in Cambridge.

I use the Avantree Jogger Plus with my iPhone SE. Very good sound in the mid-tones range but not much base if music is your thing. However the NFC auto pair doesn't work for me.

NFC pairing won't be available until Apple allow third party access to the chip inside iPhone and given Apple Pay I reckon (IMHO) it's probable they never will.

Apple's AirPods should've been released in late October but apparently there are some issues with them and it's being touted as available for release in January 2017 now!

Granted these are dearer: http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/product/ML8V2ZM/A/powerbeats3-wireless-earphones-black?fnode=9acbe90bd01c6d4d4cfaad4f429ce47612875bfca44ca9965f5f5d576275d36e4108527683d98a5951ccc7fccef4718251a0c1e1cfd946b84195ee30f341947f1968ce67288edaa05ef4cd58694bec370b8ca06c571817506e6ba57becff2e4bf7100a62e4d400c0c54cde207aa8e75b

at £169.99 (!!!) but they also have Apple's custom W1 chip with Fast Refuel technology and if you have the right hard/software can also switch seamlessly between Mac/iPhone/iPad/Watch.
