BeginningwithN 1.0For the lower budget aka sub 50$, check out anker soundcore options. I just picked up a set of life note 3i, amazon renewed for $30 cdn. Noise cancelling works fairly well, not perfect, but good. Sound quality is great for the price, I use them for audiobooks and all sorts of music. The app is also good and allows for custom eq or presets.
bjorg18 1.0Soundcore Life Dot 3i... surprisingly covers everything for me.... Great battery life...Great audio quality...good indoor call quality... multipoint connectivity...Awesome snug fit with no ear fatigue... Everything at a reasonable low cost
EnoughWear3873 1.0Life dot 3i is similar sound and call quality to galaxy buds at ~1/3 of the first
Juhezmane 1.0U can go for Soundcore Life Dot 3i, it's durable, and it's noise cancellation is quite decent
National_Drummer9667 1.0Anker makes great earbuds. I've had a 60 dollar pair of Life Dot 3i for over 2 years and the closest I've had to an issue with them is I lost one of them
remstage 1.0Wired Letshouer s12 pro for 2am raves and some mixing Denon Perl Pro for casual listening, late home workouts and mastering reference Soundcore ai3 for work Soundpeats air 4 pro for podcasts when i go out I still need the Devialet Gemini and Soundcore Sleep to feel fulfilled in life.
RicciRox 1.0Owned the Dot 3i, P20i, Liberty Air 2, and P30i. Only disappointing set was the P20i. Effectively, you can generally pick up Soundcore earbuds in any price bracket and be satisfied that they're really competitive with the best options there.
CMF Buds Pro 2 are much better than the P30i and Baseus EP10 Pro. I've owned the P30i, Baseus, Dot 3i, and the standard CMF Buds 2 and the CMFs are better.
Splash_II 1.0I bought the A40 2 weeks ago. Love them. I had the soundcore dot 3 before but they went through the wash. Battery life is amazing and personally don't have any negatives about them.
I would have bought the dot again but they are discontinued. I'm happy with the replacement and don't regret it.
StickFinal1833 1.0Go with [soundcore life dot3i](https://tr.ee/8X6W_tkIHz)
Greedy-Parsnip9306 0.7Also check out Soundcore Life A31. Excellent all around performance and durability. I don't like admitting it, but I'm bad about leaving my buds in my shorts after my runs and they have been through a complete wash cycle (washer AND dryer) 3 times now with zero issues! Can't recommend these enough if you can find them.
