Own the 4s not the 3s but saw a youtube review of the 3 yesterday saying the ANC and SQ was really bad. I'm surprised as on my 4s with foam tips ANC is not top tier but still decent, and sq is same, not top tier but not bad (find it too thin with the other tips)
I find the freebuds 4 noise cancelling to be pretty useless but amazing for cal quality
The best by far are the Huawei free buds 3 and 4. By far.
For the things you mentioned without knowing which phone/device you use... Sony xm6, Airpods pro 3, Huawei freebuds pro 5 would be my top 3. Sony and Huawei can be used with any phone quite well and Airpods of course tired to iOS devices.
Airpods pro 2&3 Sony xm5&6 Huawei freebuds 4 and 5 Status pro x Denon perl pro Technics AZ80&100 Bose Ultra Nothing Ear Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Soundpeats H3 Bowers and Wilkins Pi8 B&O 11 And many many others. Guess it's more than 20 not 15
Freebuds 4 for talking, sony wf1000xm5 for music.
The Freebuds 4 and Freebuds 4 Pro a different. The Freebuds 4 Pro have the best microphone.
Even non-pro Huawei Freebuds are very good. Notice that app isn’t available in the PlayStore! It is available in the AppStore, but iOS version doesn’t support recent models like 7i.
Ninguno como los Huawei!! La serie Freebuds!! Y empieza a disfrutar de verdad. Saludos
