LG - T90S

LG Tone T90S is great, I bought yesterday from Amazon at 65€ (used) and I'm happy. I returned Soundcore Liberty NC, it doesnt fit in my ears.

I saw these listed on Amazon warehouse and thought I'd take a punt. I've not seen much mentioned about these other than 2 Korean reviews which rate these highly for sound. Korean Review 1 (English Subs) : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_alFVgVGl10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_alFVgVGl10) Korean Review 2 (English Subs) : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7F3WvuzmyjM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7F3WvuzmyjM) **My Quick Early Impressions** # Positives \- Comfortable - Awesome fit! \- Impressive sound and expansive soundstage (when using the right preset ) \- Dolby Atmos and Dolby Head tracking support \- Solid ANC \- Amplified Transparency mode \- Great control customization \- Multipoint support \- Impressive charging case - (allows you to gain High res code support if your device does not support it) \- Super small case!! \- Very responsive controls ​ # Negatives \- No Transparency mode in single bud mode \- Call quality is solid but background noises still come through :-( \- Only appears to support a max of 5 paired devices (most new buds support 8 devices + -- seems odd) ​ It's disappointing that the call quality isn't better and no single bud transparency mode is really weird from a big brand like LG. I like the way these buds sound (For context I also have the Huawei FreeBuds Pro 3, Sony XM5, and Jabra Elite 10 - in my collection to compare against) Everything sounds so clean with these earbuds and the presets make a big difference. Movies / TV Shows sound enjoyable with the 3D Soundstage preset and despite the average ANC I still keep reaching for these earbuds over my other buds for now... ​ I hope LG will support these buds with software improvements as they truly are impressive (but I have a bad feeling these will be dead on arrival like with previous LG earbuds, but I hope I'm wrong) ​ If anyones got any questions regarding these feel free to ask. ​ I'll post some pictures comparing the buds shortly ​ ​

LG released an update today 1.19.1 that really improves transparency mode. Way more natural now but still no support for single but transparency mode... Yet...

Yeah these earbuds are fantastic but lg marketing is poor .a real let down .at this rate they could be going the way of jabra in the consumer earbuds market 😞 I only found these via a Korean YouTube review and then in the UK u can only get them via Amazon Europe .. no easy sales channels for LG earbuds which is a real shame . LG support on the other hand has been fantastic Of all the earbuds I've used in the last few years these are top 5 for me

Seriously impressive earbuds - especially given their size!!! My only real negative is not being able to have transparency with 1 bud , other than that they are great. I dont use them as often now just because I have the jbl tour pro 3 now which basically does everything that the lg t90s can do (transmitter case) You should be able to find the t90s on ebay right now as support for these earbuds ends Dec 2025, so alot should be going pretty cheap. I still recommend them. Note: Regarding the US - I dont think they will release in the US - they only have the LG T80S i believe (which is basically the same without the transmitter case and nano stuff i believe) Same sound drivers though

I tesed both the 3D soundstage and Dolby Atmos presets, I found myself favoring the 3D soundstage option. Despite my lack of technical expertise in audio quality, the differences were not markedly distinct to me, with the exception of the head tracking feature, which I personally do not prefer. It appears that the Dolby Atmos effect can be enabled for any content, suggesting that the LG algorithm may be operational independent of the source material. This implies that the earbuds might not be receiving genuine object positioning data, although this is speculative on my part. In comparative tests with the Elite 10, another set of Dolby Atmos-enabled earbuds, the LG T90s seemed to deliver superior audio quality to my ears. The soundstage presented as broader, with more pronounced bass and sub-bass, likely attributable to the deeper insertion provided by the ear tips on the t90s. Also just for kicks I tested these against my Bose Ultra Headphones (not the earbuds) and the LG T90s sounded closest to the Bose's immersive mode.

You guys aren’t kidding, these things are an insane value at $25. I also own the following earbuds: Nothing Ear 2 Denon Perl AP Pro 2 Moto Buds+ OP Buds Pro 2 1MORE Aero & Colorbuds Cleer Ally Plus II LG Tone T90Q Phillips Fidelio T1 Status Between 3ANC And if I’m being honest…. I’d put the Moondrops up against most of these earbuds. They easily outperform both of the 1More earbuds and the Cleer Ally Plus IIs, I’d rate them honestly about on par with the LG Tone T90Qs & Oneplus Buds Pro 2, with my Status Between 3ANCs, my Moto Buds+, my AirPods Pro 2 bringing up 6th-4th on my list. My top three are the Denon Perls, the Phillip Fidelio T1s, and my Nothing Ear 2s . So my final list of my earbuds rankings are: 1. Nothing Ear 2 2. Phillips Fidelio T1 3. Denon Perl 4. AirPods Pro 2 5. Moto Buds+ 6. Status Between 3ANC 6.5. OnePlus Buds Pro 2 & LG Tone T90Q 7. Moondrop Space Travel, and honestly as I listen to them more, they may move up. 8. Both 1Mores in a tie (the Aeros & Colorbuds) 9. Cleer Ally Plus II (I’ve bought these twice and have been disappointed in them both times) I realize I kinda turned this post into a “rank my earbuds” list, but seriously, the Moondrop Space Travels are the best sounding earbuds I’ve ever heard for less than $50. Are they built to challenge the audiophile quality pairs like the Fidelios and the Nothing Ears? No, but for $25 they’re amazing sounding. They’re perfect for just running around every day or going to the gym. Since they’re so cheap, they’re perfect for those situations where if you lose them or they break, you don’t have to lose sleep over replacing them. I get that this post seems like I’m doing a paid promo for Moondrop. It’s not that lol, I’ve just never been this impressed with a cheap pair of earbuds like I have been with the Moondrop Space Travels. My only complaint is, they’re kinda hard to get out of the case.

I bought the LG tone 9 last year for Black Friday for 40 dollars. They are really good. There might be a newer version. I had the fp8 a few years back. They are nearly identical. They last long, sturdy, come.with multiple earsize knobs to change, a sturdy box and as a gimmick, they have some UV light going when loading, which cleans bacteria. You can load your earplugs multiple time with the box and each load last your up to 6 or 7 hours i would say. I bought the 9 because the old ones dropped out and I thought I had lost them. My landlord found one in the hallway and the other one the neighbours cat played with for a few days till it was dropped by the cat in front of my door. They still work.
