Currently trying to decide between Denon perl pro and soundcore liberty 4 pro. These are to replace the AZ100s, which for the money I wasn't that impressed with. The app for the soundcore is definitely better, and the sound quality on both is extremely good. I do like the personalised sound profile on the denon's and it equalises the music to how I enjoy my music. I also have the Nothing Ear (2024) and the sound quality is excellent, but unfortunately don't get loud enough for my liking. I've also had the Melomania M100s and I struggled to get the music to sound how I liked it. I also returned the OnePlus buds pro for the same reason.
Hey, do you also have the issue with the one plus buds pro that there is no sound even when they are connected to the phone ?
Call quality is close to my highest concern when shopping for earbuds. I have had great experiences with oneplus earbuds, particularly the buds pro and the buds pro 2. The call quality was much better than other brands I have tried including sony, senheiser, and samsung. They just started selling the oneplus buds 4, which are getting good reviews. I am considering picking up a pair. Many earbud reviews on youtube compare the call quality of various brands/models head to head, I suggest you check out some of those videos.
I use the OnePlus buds pro
Have had the buds pro and buds pro 2. Both died two months outside of warranty. I'm done with buds.
You will honestly get a great experience from phone branded earbuds such as Apple air pods, Google Pixel Buds, Oneplus Pro buds, Samsung, etc. I personally use my Pixel Buds and my Oneplus Pro's for work calls and never had a disconnection. My wife uses Airpods pros and never had an issue. You're more likely to have an issue on the Windows side of the things (broken Windows updates, bugs, etc) than with the earbuds themselves.
Stay with your One plus, they are already a good choice. If you need new ones the Samsung pros were always a good choice especially paired with Samsung devices for sound and call quality. Beside Samsungs seamless bluetooth cocec which enables hires audio, the pro3s got a planar driver for highs beside a dual speaker/driver unit which is pretty new at that price point and should make a quit good sound possible but Samsung ruined everything swith their latest update.
depends on budget, one plus buds are quite decent per their price!
