Also 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.
Previously I was using the Soundcore Life A3i Now I’m using the Realme Buds Air7
I also use Soundcores (A3i), been at least a few years of use without issues.
Anyone else have the new Anker A30’s? Sound may not be as good as AirPods but the AnC is great, good price, and designed to sleep on them comfortably.
I have these earbuds and I absolutely hate them. The pass through capability is redundant when you can just use bluetooth. After I charge through the dongle and pull it out, the dongle pops off with it. I don't want a dongle attached to my usb c charger all the time. Above all else, the sound quality is just average. There is nothing special targeted toward VR or anything. It's just marketing. No expanded sound stage or ambient focus. I ended up using the Soundcore a3i's instead. They punch above their weight and sound way better. Plus they are more comfortable.
I’ve had T for years, and nights are still the hardest part for me. I’m not really looking for “perfect silence” anymore. At this point I’m more interested in something comfortable enough to wear in bed that can play low-level white noise / pink noise / rain sounds without becoming annoying on its own. I tried the Soundcore A30 recently, and what stood out to me wasn’t some dramatic noise blocking thing — it was that they were light enough to actually sleep in, and the masking sounds felt easier to live with than just having a noise machine in the room. With the right sound at a low volume, my T doesn’t disappear, but my brain seems to latch onto it less, which is honestly a big deal at night. That kind of “background sound helps me notice the T less” framing is very common in tinnitus discussions, although people’s responses vary a lot. What I’m still trying to figure out is the best setup. Some nights white noise helps, other nights pink noise or softer nature sounds seem better. I’ve seen a lot of people say the exact masking sound matters just as much as the earbuds themselves. So I guess my real question is: if you use sleep earbuds for T, what actually works for you? Specific sounds? Very low volume? A certain fit that stays comfortable all night? Mostly asking because I feel like comfort + the right masking sound matters way more than anything else here.
