Wireless ear buds suck.
PineBuds Pro – open firmware capable ANC wireless earbuds 💥💥💥💥
I with you guys. I still rock my AirPods Pro, although, I also really like the Beats Fit Pro and the Studio Buds. Those are great options too
i still used airpods pros even when i had an s21 and galaxy buds pro…
I like the pixel buds 2 since they have that pressure release pass through. The connectivity is pretty shit though and they arent exactly feature rich. No idea if the A versions or the new pros are worth it.
When they launched though, the buds 2 were steaming piles of shit until a few patches came out.
There are obviously better earbuds than others, but I honestly can’t stand wearing any earbuds. Most don’t even fit my ears properly and even the ones that fit better feel uncomfortable. I either go speaker or over the ear headphones
Shure SE-535s with the bluetooth module! AMAZING
I love my jabras <3
I switched to ios expecting that I’d just get the air pods pro to go with the new phone but outside of anc, they sounded so muffled and cheap that I never bothered “upgrading” from my gen 1 galaxy buds.
I find the 1More Evos sound quality and comfort excellent.
I use the LG Tone Free FP9. I use them every day, and I use them to fall asleep. They are so comfortable.
Apple Fan Boys.
honestly cant see how linus can go with the airpod pros over XM4’s. Sony’s noise cancellation is excellent, and they also sound 10x better, which is the reason why i would take them over the air pods, even if noise cancellation isnt quite as good.
galaxy buds plus Beat these! the bass kills them
What about Bose?!?
I got some memory foam tips for my AirPod Pros and it’s a game changer for me. So comfy and makes the noise isolation even better.
Wireless earbuds are way too damn expensive. I sold my Sony Xm3s because they fell out constantly and I will just avoid any phone without a headphone jack at all costs. Wired is cheaper by far and is way easier to find good fit and comfort.
As a partially deaf person, Ankers Soundcore pro with the Hear ID tech are amazing… the ability to adjust sound so I can hear out of both ears is amazing
Glad to hear Linus mention the LG Tone earbuds. They’re as comfortable as the Airpods if not more. ANC might not be quite as strong but they’re also wildly cheaper. The case is tiny and the touch controls are really good and very customizable.
I want to see Linus test the status between 3ANC
Me either @linus
try Marshall minor 3 they’re pretty insane once you tune them in with an equalizer.
have you heard of honor earbuds 3 maybe 💀
No transparency mode beats the AirPods Pro’s in my opinion, most natural sound
Should really try Xiaomi flipbuds pro… Sad that many don’t know it’s existence
I’ve been using my soundcore life p3 and they’ve been amazing great sound good anc amazing battery
I use xiaomi’s 20€ earbuds and they are fantastic. Don’t need to spend more
I use the nothing ear 1 and used the jabra elite 75t and their both good i enjoy the nothing ear 1 just because of the anc and its kinda cheap
I sitll like my Creative ones I have 🙂
I bought the Galaxy Buds Pro on "Prime" day for $120 they have better sound quality than the airpod pros to me. But the fit and noise cancelling is better on the airpod pro’s for me so it’s a toss up. Waiting for the Galaxy Bud Pro 2’s to come out sometime this month and hoping they are good I will probably return my Bud Pro 1 since they fall out of my ears a little
I’m on KZ S2 that is a cheap-ish chi-fi IEMs, and now that I finally learned that the constant loss of signal while the phone is in my pocket only happens because I love to jam the buds really deep in my ears, I kinda love them. So far the only ones that feel good. Tried regular airpods and dizo gopods D, none of them feel right if the bud isn’t molded as a human ear.
Edit: I might just get an external Bluetooth to 3.5 thing and dump this whole search for fitting buds.
Jabra’s are really worth checking out. Both for anc and size…
Wanna see their thoughts on galaxy buds pro 2, apparently good active noise cancelation
the airpods just cant stay in my ear its so hard to find an alternative on ios that works like thenm
Pixel buds pro!
is samsung not even a contender :O
OG linkbuds changed my world. I rocked ATH M50’s as a proper oldfag and wannabe audiophile while denying progress. But those quirky little shits and how Linus and other reputable reviewers reacted to them – tickled my fancy the right way and I just bought them. (I am from a place where $180 is a serious investment) And they absolutely changed my world. I unfortunately get less use out of them than I’d like, but that is none of the linkbuds fault. A little apprehensive "let’s give this hipster tech a try" turned to be an eye (and ear) opener.
The ROG True Wireless Ear buds are worth a try
I’m currently using the Nothing Ear (1)s. Love the aesthetics of them. Functionality wise they’re decent – not amazing, not bad. Carrying case fits in my jeans’ "headphone pocket" without a bulge. Surprised me, as the square form factor makes it look like it wouldn’t.
Galaxy buds 2, very happy with the ambient sound feature for working/listening to music at the same time.
I bought the Sony linkbuds. I hate in ear bud bits and I’m useless with paying attention to my surroundings when listening to my full on headphones sure the bone-phones exist but I find they compromise slightly too much on audio quality for me to enjoy my music. The linkbuds solved that problem for me, I can listen to my music happily while being slightly more aware of my surroundings so I don’t end up pancaked by a car.
Thank you short circuit for showcasing these. They are an amazing niche product I didnt know about before 😊
You can tell they aren’t audio guys when the only thing brought up is noise cancelation.
I’d like to see Linus do some comparisons with Raycons vs other earbuds, to see how they actually stack up
Samsung galaxy buds Pro… Hummm
I use the Jabra Elite 2. Inexpensive for a university student 🙂
Try huawei free buds pro 2
Mine is the Samsung buds. The beans man. Look good and sound good.
A slightly better alternative for me because i use a z fold 3 is the beats fit pro. It has the same chipset as the airpod pros so they noise canceling and passthrough are up there. Slightly not as good, but barely noticeable. A bit more thump to the music but not as much clarity, but the ease of use with android is worth it. The wingtips are not for me, but they come in handy sometimes. I usually dont fit them in properly because they hurt my ears though. airpod pros were really pissing me off at one point because they refused to connect if i tried to use them mid phone call or something
I never hear people talk about mifo 5 plus – amazing battery and sound
Airpods pro, no question about it. Im still waiting for a pro 2🙏🏻 the nc is just amazing and they sound amazing
