anyone know where i can get good quality earphones that aren’t expensive. i think i’ve gone through 20 + pairs. i’ve bought the expensive ones and budget ones and they ALL BREAK. i take extra care with my headphones to prevent this but they either seem to fall apart or the sound won’t work after such a short period of time! anyone else have this problem?!

You might get more useful responses if you post in 'Technology' or 'Shopping', rather than in 'Family'.

However it would help us to know whether you mean 'earphones' (i.e. the type of things where little buds are pressed into your ears) or 'headphones (i.e. the type of things that radio DJs wear). You've used both terms in your post.

It would also help to know whether you're seeking wired ear/headphones, wireless ear/headphones (which are supplied with their own transmitter unit) or Bluetooth ones.

Further, an indication your budget might help. Yes, I know that you've told us that you're seeking ear/headphones that "aren't expensive" but someone on a tight budget might mean 'less than a fiver' when he/she writes that, whereas a hi-fi enthusiast might mean 'less than a hundred quid' when he/she uses the same phrase.
Also, it would useful to know what their primary use will be. Some products e.g. Sennheiser are designed specifically for listening to music whereas others e.g. Plantronics / Jabra are tailored more for two-way interaction e.g. via Skype, Zoom etc.
I use a pair of these:

They’re a tad heavy but very sturdy and the main selling point for me is the alcantara ear pads, similar to velvet.
You can wear them for hours and not suffer ‘sweaty ear’ syndrome.

@buenchio I've just learnt how to reply, I know this one is from a long time ago. I thought I had in under technology, the family category was a mistake and I don't know how to change it. Since then I've been through many more! I now have wireless headphones and prefer them over earphones. (in my last post I meant earphones, but referred to the wrong name). I am currently looking for plug in headphones as I don't like bringing my bluetooth ones out with me. I have a pair but the jack doesn't fit with my case on :( I'm looking for something lightweight, black and less than £25.
