I love Beats Studio Buds. Great sound quality and noise cancelation. You can also use the Transparency Mode if you want to hear the surroundings. I also used JBL Vibe Beam and loved them. You can check my review [here](https://www.audiobooksgeek.com/best-earbuds-for-audiobooks/) for details.

r/audibleWhat Are the Best Earbuds for Audiobooks Right Now?

I love Beats Studio Buds (option 3 [here](https://www.audiobooksgeek.com/best-earbuds-for-audiobooks/)). Sound quality and noise cancelation are amazing. I love the Transparency Mode for outdoor use. It comes with 3 sizes of ear tips so you can choose the ones that are comfortable for you. I also like JBL Vibe Beam. So I will choose between Beats Studio Buds or JBL Vibe Beam.

I have both of these. I like the liberty 4 feature set better. But I keep getting a wear sound with the bass drum like super punchy. The beats have an overall more balanced sound to me.

Decent for the price but if you have 40 bucks more the Beats Studio buds blow these out the water Amazon has them for 99

I like my beats buds. Noise canceling. The battery goes down over time but I’ve accidentally washed them like 3 times and they still work!

r/AskMenOver30Any good low-profile Bluetooth earpieces that don’t suck for calls?

Beats Studio buds have worked well for me for years now. If you’re lucky, you can find some in your local Walmart for $70. As for charging, I use my laptop charger so it’s so convenient for me. Can’t remember what the charging cable that it came with looked like as I know sometimes they can come in a super short inconvenient cable.

r/HeadphoneAdviceWireless Earbuds without ANC
11 months ago

I know this gets posted every year or so, but since earbud models change so frequently, old posts aren't very helpful. I can't wear over-the-ear headphones. Every pair I've worn feels like my upper ear cartilage is being pressed into with a knife. I don't think there's any headphones that won't do this, as even sleeping on my ear on a pillow can do it. I don't know if I've only tried earbuds with bad ANC, but I've hated every minute of it. My last pair of earbuds that I liked were Soundcore Spirit Dot 2s, but Soundcore doesn't make any earbuds without ANC now. I don't want transparency mode; I just want no ANC. I currently have a pair of Beats Studio Buds, and they're okay but not very comfortable and not great sound. Wireless is pretty nonnegotiable, as I am not threading an earbud cord down my shirt daily.

I have beats pods? (or whatever they’re called in pink)

Yeah I stopped using them because I took one out + my dog ate one up (just badly chewed it) so I wanted these instead solely based on the color lol Theyre basically the same except, you can’t turn them down with the a simple tap like you can with AirPods + you have to actually push the pods to skip + pause, you can’t just tap like AirPods :(

The sound quality is 5/5 but after a month or so you will be plagued with charging issues.

r/airpodsBeats Fit Pro or Airpod 4ANC ?, I recently lost my pro 1's I had for the last 4 years so deciding on what to move onto next. I have a pair of Beats studio buds but the mic on those are horrible especially when I'm at the gym which is loud, people cant figure out what I'm even saying on a call.

I have the pros 2, 4 with ANC, and beat studio buds. My favorite by far are the pro 2s I use them for pretty much everything, now if I am going to be out in the city, I prefer the 4s the anc is decent, but it isn't as strong as the pro 2 so I am more aware of what is going on. the studio buds were a gift they are cool, but in your case, I would lean for the pro 2s since I know with prime day they are on sale too.
