CMF - Buds 2

Headphone (1) has a full parametric eq so you can really tune them to your listening preferences. Same with Ear products, I have ear(2) and ear 2024 and they are both really fine tuned for myself and they take to it really well. I have noticed their default tuning has a ton of sibliance though but you can eq most of that out

CMF Buds 2 by Nothing, great sound, low price. But not the best noice canceling

I love the cmf buds 2 plus

CMF Buds 2 (by Nothing)

The battery problem is caused by improper use. You need to know how TWS earphones work. The software is more than correct. The sound is very good for this price. There will be 5 days better but your budget constraint is strong.

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.

If it's longevity, OnePlus Buds 4 for around 89 bucks are the best performance x price earbuds. Outstanding 55 dB ANC (on par or even better than most midrange premium and premium earbuds 200-250$ category), 3D Audio (head tracking) great transparency mode (hearing people talking clearly while listening to music, good to go for conversations), solid bass with Basswave™️. On ANC up to 6 hours, 9 hours on normal. The only negativity is the ambient mode, which you should evade to use (it's a common problem on most earbuds even premium ones). The switch between ANC and Transparency is very delayed and inaccurate, but that's it. It's the best sounding budget earbuds with dual drivers! They are also ergonomically well built, and fit in ears perfectly. I use it combined with my OnePlus Watch 3, it can check my posture thanks to the earbuds, so if I have bad posture, it will notify me, how cool is that! Next are the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 FE, for around 100 bucks. Although no dual drivers, the sound is okay, less bass in comparison to OnePlus buds, but clearer mids and vocals. Battery life is similar to OnePlus buds (a little better). For 150-180 you can get the Galaxy Buds3 Pro, depending on your region. I like how you have the tiny lights on the earbuds on the Buds3 Pro, stylish. Maybe to flex as well 😄, and finding them in the darkness, in case you lost them. Sony LinkBuds S for 129$ are packed with features! Solid ANC and Transparency can be customized up to 20 levels. But it has pretty much white noises, might be annoying for somebody. The battery life is good, but vs Samsung and OnePlus buds, slightly worse (especially if you have HiRes Audio/DSEE Extreme turned on). The only downside is, same with the more expensive WF series, they don't hold well in ears, they're not suited for activities. The Ambient mode is better here. CMF by Nothing buds 2 are solid budget earbuds with the price of less than 60$. Transparency is okayish, ANC solid, battery is great too, probably the best entry earbuds I can recommend, if you don't want to spend much, but want some fine buds! Technics EAH-AZ80, now Technics EAH-AZ100 are outstanding earbuds, for me, the best sounding premium/flagship earbuds that you can get. Perfect in all aspects, but expensive, that's where the less pricey AZ80 comes forward. Well they're at the average of 200$, but in my country, they're on sale for 159$. the AZ80 lacks the incredible Magnetic Fluid Driver, Dolby Atmos, superior ANC, and the newest Bluetooth 5.3 that makes AZ100 so great, but the AZ80 are still keeping up! I personally have/had these, so I can guarantee you, they're great choices. The prices are according to my region (Germany, the Netherlands, Czechia average price). If you're for example in the US, it may be more expensive.

Personally I've used Skull Candy dimes (cheap, there's a tactile response to pressing them for volume control etc) and Nothing CMF Buds 2 .... (cheap, unfortunately no tactile response, and volume control isn't really possible - but does have active noise cancellation). I've always taken the view that they probably won't last more than about 6 months given sweat or my ability to lose a bud somewhere ...

The cheapo nothing buds i think cme2, $20-$30, ANC is super sucky but the actual audio is quite nice! From someone who constantly misplaces earbuds

Cmf buds 2 eller nothing, äger nothing och provat cmf är helt fantastiska, ljudisoleringen är något bättre i cmf men du får lite mer bas i nothing ear.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for the best TWS earbuds around the **$100 mark**, prioritizing **ANC** and **sound quality**. The **Anker Liberty 5**seems to be the default recommendation in this bracket, but looking into the technical data has me a bit confused. I previously used the **CMF Buds 2**, and for the price, I was genuinely impressed. The ANC felt very capable, and turning on **Spatial Audio** widened the soundstage significantly. However, when comparing them on **SoundGuys**, I noticed some strange numbers: * **CMF Buds 2:** 82% noise reduction (8.2 ANC score) * **Anker Liberty 5:** 76% noise reduction (7.6 ANC score) On paper, the much cheaper CMF model seems to outperform the Liberty 5 in active noise cancellation. How reliable are these SoundGuys measurements in your experience? Is the Liberty 5 actually offering a better real-world ANC and audio experience that justifies the price jump? **Specifically, I'm wondering:** 1. Is the SoundGuys data misleading, or is the CMF Buds 2 just a massive value steal? 2. Does the Liberty 5 offer a better **"clean" sound** (Timbre/Accuracy) compared to the CMF? 3. Are there other "hidden gems" in the $100 range that I should consider instead? Or should I just stick with the Buds 2 and save the extra cash? Looking forward to your thoughts!

The SoundPEATS H3 is the best ANC earbud from SoundPEATS. I had the chance to test both the H3 and the CMF, and the CMF was better at reducing noises like engine sounds compared to the H3.

Yeah, the H3 is good for value, but I don’t want to spend much on earbuds. I’m just looking for something affordable with decent quality. CMF Buds 2 seems like a solid option.
