BS1 NC Semi-in-Ear Noise Cancelling Earbuds

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest one that not a lot of people talk about. Consider the Baseus BS1 NC. They're usually available for around $40, have what I consider to be great ANC for semi in-ear earbuds. They also have low latency mode for gaining. I really like these earbuds. Got them at the beginning of November and they've been my go-to earnings ever since

I use this type most often and have the k20i and Soundpeats Air5 which I prefer to the newer Lite. My new favorite is the Baseus Bass BS1 NC. Deeper bass and better noise cancellation. LDAC too. Fit my ears comfortably by that's a personal thing. Their performance has surprised me.

The Baseus ones are excellent for music.

I've been using the Soundpeats Air5 since they were released and have been very satisfied with them. Recently got the Baseus bass BS1 NC on a promo deal. They have deeper bass and stronger ANC than expected for this type and priced well.

Good. I think you'll like them. Amazed at the quality you can get for $20 these days.

I use Baseus s1 right now because they don’t fully cancel out noise so I can still hear traffic and stay aware while riding. But I have been eyeing Tarran T1 lately. It’s the first cargo bike I’ve seen with built in speakers and honestly my kids and I love having music on our daily rides. I already know people in the comments are gonna say “ugh, why would you do that, it’s impolite” but I don’t get it. We’ve completely accepted music systems in cars so why not ebikes? I am not talking about blasting it, just a bit of music for enjoyment between me and my kids. Seems totally fine to me.

Tozo Crystal Pods ($18-$25 Amazon)- Good sound and respectible ANC/hearthrough. The Tozo app is the secret sauce which allows you to fine tune the sound and has a boatload of features. Basues BP-1 ($18-$25 Amazon)- Good sound and respectible ANC/hearthrough like the Crystal Pods. The app isn't as flushed out as Tozo's, but still worth considering. Both have solid battery life but obviously won't have all the bells and whistles as high priced buds. But I've owned both and for the money they're hard to beat.
