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.
I felt that way about my Raycons and than I have NC9s by Tozo. They are awesome. I'd suggest you try them out.
I have Raymond impact series earbuds and have been loving them depending on the task at work I dont even need earmuffs on over top like running the peelers and such, they have cheaper models that have moise canceling too but the battery doesn't last as long on them but mine i charge the capsul once or twice a week and I work 10hr days
I use Raycon Impact earbuds. You can toggle between noise cancellation and awareness mode.
raycon isn't really made for sleeping though, they're way too bulky. i use sleep earbuds on flights all time for work and regular earbuds just don't stay comfortable when you're trying to rest your head against window or anything. from the ones you listed, i'd probably go with ozlo since they're specifically designed for side sleeping. the noise masking works pretty well for airplane engines in my experience, though it's different than active cancellation. somnipods are decent too but battery life wasn't great when i tried them last year.
I had this same problem and Raycon is the only earbud that fits and stays put no matter what. I would try them out.
It's ok quality, but it really is a pair of $20 AliExpress buds with an R logo printed on them for the fuckass rapper that flipped these and got a bunch of drones to pay $70 for them via an insane amount of YouTube sponsorships. For some reason people get offended when you tell them they're getting upselled because "i don't care, it sounds good" just consumer slop do not fall for it You want close to peak audio with the Thor or in general, go on Amazon and look up wired IEMS. There was a $25 pair I found that legit sound on par with my $200 SK headset in terms of clarity Example https://a.co/d/0bAfmqLA
Raycons are complete ass and nobody would ever buy them without their massive YouTube marketing campaign.
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.
I like Raycon, they are a little more expensive, but they generally have good Black Friday Sales (when I've always bought mine)
