Not tryna hijack this thread but any recommendation in the the RM 300 range would be appreciated.Can stretch upto RM500 if the quality difference is a lot..Have a Jabra elite 4 active,can't say I need much more in terms of sound,maybe better ANC would be nice..However,something which can last would be good.my Jabras mic on the left earpod got spoilt twice..Rosak once,sent for warranty,they sent me a new one,not long after new ones mic got spoilt on the left earbud again..Have to admit,didn't just magically get spoilt,it dropped a few times but y always the left earbuds mic?lol.terima kasih utk apa2 cadangan wahai putera puteri reddit 🙏

do you want headphones/earphones or earplugs? loops are earplugs, they have different intensity levels based on the model and they work well for what they are, but they only filter noise, don't block it completely if you want to actually block out all sounds you want noise cancelling, which you won't get in earplugs but only in headphones/earphones. the rule of thumb with these is that noise cancelling earphones, that go in your ear like earplugs, will give you better noice cancelling for cheaper when compared to over-ear headphones. the model I've personally used and can recommend is jabra elite 4 active, I've used them for about a year but lost them and got the elite 8 active model instead, but I feel like the 4s had better noice cancelling than the 8s, even though it's an older model

Strangely enough, the only think that works for me are my Shokz Openmove. I've tried buds (APP2, Pixel Buds Pro 2, Jabra Active 4), and I always find that one has fallen out somewhere.

Yeah the 75ts are the ones I got first and fell in love with. Then I got the Jabra 3 elites and then the Jabra 4 actives. The only reason I got new ones is I lost the other ones. I now have an air tag on them. The best.

I love my jabra elite active 4, have had them for like 3-5 years now, have a 2nd pair for when one runs out, less than 100 I’m sure

I’d go with the Jabra Elite 4 Active with clear mic, comfy fit, and great battery under 100€. If budget allows, the Galaxy Buds2 Pro deliver excellent call and music quality. Skip budget ENC buds, the mics usually disappoint. Also, check the sound out on AudioTones .co before buying super useful to hear the difference.

Honestly, if you want something that just won’t fall out, go with the Beats Fit Pro those wing tips hug your ears and stay locked in even when you’re pushing hard, plus you get solid ANC and that classic Apple/Beats sound. If you’d rather keep things closer to budget, the Jabra Elite 4 Active are super comfy, sweatproof, and tuned for workouts without feeling bulky. Both are easy recommendations. check them out on [audiotones.co](http://audiotones.co) before you buy so you know which vibe fits you best.

I was happy with my Jabra Elite 4 Active but suddenly, after about a year, one of them lost volume after a couple of seconds of use. I got a pair of JBL Live Pro 2 instead. I like everything about them but not the fit. It feels like they're about to slip out any second. I wouldn't dare running or anything like it with them. Would love a clone of the old Jabra, the fit was great.

me too, sort of! the inside of my ears is small but my ears overall are probably average size. Across all the pairs of wired earphones I've come across with usually 3 size options of silicone tips, I've only found 2 pairs that had a size that was small enough for me. Held onto one of those little silicone tips for so long and used them with many pairs of earphones over the years. I think I've lost them now, but either way they don't fit on airpods which is what I mostly use now. I have Jabbra Elite Active 4s which are horribly uncomfortable - the body is so bulky and hard and sits in your ear and it causes so much pain. I much prefer the shape and weight of the airpods, but it still isn't perfect. airpod pros are a bit better I think, but pretty far out of my budget. Also, I have become quite conscious of sound quality. A lot of reviews these days don't talk about sound quality or compare the sound quality to any meaningful benchmark. Noise cancelling is a bonus feature but not a necessity for me. Anyways. I mostly just came here to rant about how uncomfortable earphones are. and how few options we actually have, despite this whole capitalism bs. they're all the same old bs and most of them don't even sound good. But there's no good way to research any of it since the lies and advertising are so entrenched

Jabras are not good for small ears! huge body that sits in the ear is super uncomfortable
