"I put them in my ear, put the helmet on, then do one final “push” with my finger to seat them in my ear for the ride. ... The batteries die before they work out of my ear."
"they are so comfortable that both I and my husband have had to feel our ears to check whether we were still wearing them."
"Also super bonus I've never head banged with earphones this hard besides with these soundcores, they stick to me like glue even when I'm in a metal mood and I'm headbanging for a good hour."

"amazing, amazing, amazing ANC performance for earbuds! ... not even close in ANC performance vs these (Bose QuietComfort Earbuds (2024)) ... I, for ANC, prefer the approach Bose takes, blocking out pretty much all frequencies."
"Was ideal because I was in a cabin with 3 screaming babies and ANC + audiobook worked like a CHARM."
"The fit, comfort, sound, and ANC are the best I've experienced. ... all the rest have markedly inferior ANC."

"now that I have it, I consider it, with a discount, to be an amazing value set ... at around $50, for a Zero red/Kefine Klean Alternative, the value is VERY good and the tuning is really nice."
"At the TSP of around $50 now, I think these are really good value for money and I'd take them over the Zero Red any day of the week for a neutral-ish set."
"you can get them for less than $95 most of the time they're running discounts typically you can get a pair for around $65"

"About a year and the right bud would last about 15 minutes on a full charge."
"after about 6 months of use, the battery life fell off dramatically. ... I'm lucky if I get 45 minutes out of a full charge. ... This battery issue affected both sets of Elite 65t earbuds."
"my vivoactive 4s died a few months ago now after a few good years services, I wanted to change it. I couldn't because I had the change the whole watch, planned obsolescence."

"I had severe issues over Bluetooth with a Samsung Galaxy S7 & S20, buds in the ear and phone in my left pants pocket, would very very frequently drop and crackle. ... This issue disappeared when using a newer phone like my S24, but something to keep in mind for older or cheaper phone models."
"mine disconnect and then reconnect randomly to my computer"
"random disconnects"
I use Raycons. They're ear buds, but they cancel noise super well and they often offer discounts.
r/aspergirls • What's the best noise cancelling headphones you have tried? ->I had this same problem and Raycon is the only earbud that fits and stays put no matter what. I would try them out.
r/Earbuds • HELP no earbuds fit my tiny ears ->Raycons are complete ass and nobody would ever buy them without their massive YouTube marketing campaign.
r/dataisbeautiful • I analyzed 1 year of wireless earbuds recommendations on Reddit (Nov 2024–2025). These are the top 25 (r/Earbuds vs all subreddits) ->They're very bad quality for their price. Bad audio quality, bad build quality, bad batteries, bad reliability, very buggy connection etc. You can get similar quality in chinese knock-off earbuds for under 5€ on Temu and better quality in regular 30€ earbuds from your local tech store. Great to hear that yours haven't had any major issues so far - that's not the norm with Raycon.
r/dataisbeautiful • I analyzed 1 year of wireless earbuds recommendations on Reddit (Nov 2024–2025). These are the top 25 (r/Earbuds vs all subreddits) ->I like Raycon, they are a little more expensive, but they generally have good Black Friday Sales (when I've always bought mine)
r/BuyItForLife • Is it impossible to get some wireless earbuds for bellow 50$ that last at least two years or am I buying from the wrong brands? ->Honeslty I spent like 150$ and got Raycon impacts and they are trash. Their best product and it doesnt function half the time. Has issues with the battery station contacts making is so half the time one ear bud doesnt even charge while in the dock. Other issues like random disconnects and sound issues dropping in and out etc... I since than purchased Tozo NC9 for $40 and they are far supior in every way. Even the dock is awesome as it has a digital interface that tells you how much charge is left in both earbuds and the dock its self, the battery life is better and so is the sound quality. Only been using it for about 5 years but its been rock solid once paired. I love them. I believe mine are the NC9 Hybirds that are $40 but they have a more expensive NC9 version for roughly $80.
r/Earbuds • Lost my earbuds, what to get now? ->I felt that way about my Raycons and than I have NC9s by Tozo. They are awesome. I'd suggest you try them out.
r/Earbuds • Why can’t I get ANY reliable wireless earbuds? ->Same here my raycon didn't last either. Thinking of switching to sony or soundcore they seem way more reliable.
r/Earbuds • Good wireless earbuds or brands? ->I use Raycon earbuds. Cheaper than AirPods, sound quality and volume is decent, I can still hear traffic and most importantly, they’re comfortable enough I can wear them for multiple hours with no discomfort
r/motorcycles • AirPods Pro vs. Earplugs for riding ->I used to have trouble with ear buds staying in my ears but Raycons are the only ones ive found that fit and stay in. They also came with a ton of different sized rubber pieces.
r/BuyItForLife • Bluetooth headphones with good audio quality for every day use ->I know alot of peeps use a cardo & ear plugs but you probably already know of that, your idea is probably relatively niche as helmets are designed to hug your head so any earbuds will likley get caught when putting the helmet on, I tried running raycon buds and they ended up dislodging when I put the helmet on, have samsung FE now with noise cancelling so might try that but no doubt I will have the same issue.
r/motorcyclegear • Helmet-friendly earbuds? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
