5prock3tI have not experienced this, but the sound did go kinda flat...I replaced the ear tips and now have a better seal. Foams help a lot, for comfort and SQ.
95ImpI can recommend liberty 4nc. Compared to airpods 2 the sound is a bit more bassy, and the quality is just a tiny bit less. And the nc is not on par but still, the 4nc is great!

Abyss_Wanderer19Don't know about other buds you mention. But definitely avoid 4nc. It's pretty decent sounding, but forget comfort. After 1-2 hours, your ear will sore badly. The chassis is bulky and protruding inside your ears. I'm using liberty 5 currently and am pretty satisfied with it. Still comfortable to use after a few hours. But it's quite more expensive.
eartips arent the issue. Its the shell. Its bigger than average people ears. If you have big ears, i supposed you find it ok. But so many people report the same thing with 4nc. Its just not for long usage.
Accomplished-Put6532Earfun!!! Liberty 4nc has weird fit
Affectionate_Try_836If you can find them for the price, Method 360 ANC. Theyre 99 bucks for a introductory price right now. Earfun Air Pro 4 and OnePlus Buds 3 and Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 NC are also good contenders.
alisajjad789Using liberty 4 NC for a while now. ANC is solid and battery timing is amazing. I would recommend these over others.
andalasi have enco x3i. anc is amazing. i ride train every weekend. no complain from my wife. we usually on call for 6 hours while i was on train. my voices are clear but huawei freebuds pro 4 is better. trains noise factor is higher than busy street noise. oppo enco x3i = oneplus buds 3 (same product just different name) i bought huawei for 127usd and oppo for 67usd. i have also use others such as buds fe, liberty 4 nc. not good, voices are not clear. buds fe received very high rating for phone calls in rtings.com, but imho avoid, its bad. i bought 2, believing online review are dependable. on my search for clear call, now i owns, 2x buds fe, enco x3i, liberty 4 nc, buds pro, fiio utws5, 2x huawei freebuds pro 4. (so far huawei 0 complain) 🤣
