Beoplay EX

Bang and Olufsen Beoplay EX. Hands down.

I had the exact same issues with EX (loved the sound though)so it seems that they learned nothing. Connectivity was a disaster. Hoped they fixed things with eleven but nah.

True. I’ve owned EX’s sometime ago, sold after like 3 months. Beside the B&O sound which I just like it was a terrible experience. Constant connectivity issues, ANC was a joke. Even the guy who bought it from me wanted to return it lol. Switched to AirPods 2 pro and never looked back. Now rocking pro 3 and I would pay the hefty price for grace. If it a least match AirPods ANC and user experience. However I don’t even need the real reviews to know it does not.

Which is more important to you? The sound quality or the ANC? The reality is the best TWS earbuds for one aren't the best fit the other. And there are often clear tradeoffs. For example, the B&O EX had superb audio quality. But the Nothing Ear get really close while being lighter, having a better app, and being superior in most other ways for considerably less money. Just be aware of the compromises you're going to make when selecting the best sounding TWS earbuds.

Yeah absolutely, but I have never heard anything better than Ex's...

This week, the bang and Olufsen ex were on sale for $200. Pretty good earbuds.

Would love a comparison to other lesser known premium brands (e.g. Bang & Olufsen Beoplay EX)

Got it! I have the Beoplay myself and I'm quite happy with them. Never used any other earbuds though (aside from the cheap wired ones that came with phones in the past...)

Over here in Germany there's not that much of a price difference between the Beoplay EX and Airpods Pro 2.

I have the bowers Wilkins pi8, soundpeat H3, noble FoKus Rex 5, bang Olsen Beowolf ex, denon Perl pro, devalet Gemini 2, Sony xm5. Will be getting the geek fly vitas next.
