huawei freebuds se 2 are what I go through since I don't handle them with care I normally grab them for around 30 dollars from AliExpress and I get a few at a time
Hey, Huawei Freebuds SE 2. I have relatively small ears and ear canal. They fit just a tad worse than original earpods. So if earpods fit you, these will too. The sound is a bit dark for my taste out of the box, but if you download the app and change EQ to bright, it gets much better. The original EQ quite clearly overcompensates the lack of seal.
HUAWEI freebuds se 2. They were like $35 and last 10 hours of use or 24 or more hours of no use. No reason for me to spend all the extra money on AirPods. Charge to full in 20 minutes or so.
Darn. Me too! I thought I was the only one facing this problem! Not even in a noisy place. Even when a normal car passes beside me, the ENC just drowns my voice. Call quality is even worse than the free ones I got from Huawei! (Freebuds SE 2) Unfortunately, the period to send it back has already lapsed so I am talking to Earfun now to see my options. :( Edit: I have Air Pro 4+ by the way.
!thanks I ended up buying this similar-looking Huawei SE 2 pair [https://www.amazon.co.uk/HUAWEI-Bluetooth-Headphones-Earphones-Compatible-White/dp/B0CDMB5ZQW](https://www.amazon.co.uk/HUAWEI-Bluetooth-Headphones-Earphones-Compatible-White/dp/B0CDMB5ZQW) It was cheaper, had better reviews and supposedly better battery life, but your answer is a close enough shout that I've accepted it... although Amazon has it listed is a frequently returned item which might be something to watch out for, first time I've seen that warning.
I too like semi inears as nothing beats their comfort & now after owning 6+ pairs of such, I'd say the Huawei Freebuds SE 2 have the smallest form & would fit small ears the best. IMO IME & as always in earbuds YMMV ofcos
