Huawei freebuds pro 4 FTW
i consider this like the best ANC compared to nothing ear 2, galaxy buds 3 pro and wf 1000xm5. the profile sound that i use is flat (i don't like bass/treble amp) i prefer the equilibrated sound. maybe the ANC is very conditionated for the eartips size, even if you used foam tips or silicone tips.
For calls Huawei Freebus Pro 4 are amazing and good for music (not great).
Hard disagree with this list. Plus no mention regarding mic and call quality. Huawei Freebuds 4 Pro and the new are S tier for calls.
Huawei Pro 4 is the correct answer, spent too much money on other buds to realize this.
Great. I upgraded from 3 (which I bought after learning on Reddit) and they're the best overall if talking on the phone is important. If you're not doing calls at all, the game changes. I bought separate setup for music but I end up never using them and just keeping the Huawei Freebuds Pro 4 on The 5s just came out but a few reviews I read don't make them sound worth it over the 4s unless you have a Huawei phone
huawei freebuds pro 4, imho is the best. next is oppo enco x3i or oneplus buds 3
i have enco x3i. anc is amazing. i ride train every weekend. no complain from my wife. we usually on call for 6 hours while i was on train. my voices are clear but huawei freebuds pro 4 is better. trains noise factor is higher than busy street noise. oppo enco x3i = oneplus buds 3 (same product just different name) i bought huawei for 127usd and oppo for 67usd. i have also use others such as buds fe, liberty 4 nc. not good, voices are not clear. buds fe received very high rating for phone calls in rtings.com, but imho avoid, its bad. i bought 2, believing online review are dependable. on my search for clear call, now i owns, 2x buds fe, enco x3i, liberty 4 nc, buds pro, fiio utws5, 2x huawei freebuds pro 4. (so far huawei 0 complain) 🤣
I tried Sennheiser momentum 4 and Sony WXM100XM5. And both were terrible for phone calls. Just got these and very happy so far. Sound quality is good and they mic works well on my iPhone and Teams calls. https://a.co/d/3FoJWfH
I have used the Nothing Ear 2024 for about 6 months, and they are very good but not amazing in this area. I have now switched to a pair of Huawei Freebuds Pro 4 and the noise suppression and voice isolation in noisy environments in top tier. But Nothing works better with MS Teams if this is important for you
Why is that? I have them and I feel they are not so good for the price. Nothing bugs pro 2 just as good if not better, for way less money
I use huawei freebuds pro 4 ... best one i have ever used
