"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."
"Noise cancellation is solid. ... It's on the level of the Bose QC Earbuds, my previous daily driver, and actually sounds cleaner and feels better in the ear. ... Yes! I was also surprised by how good ANC is compared to the Bose buds. ... 10 ... The ANC on the PBP2 is better. ... Mine are much, much better than both my PBP1 and my Bose QCs."
"noise cancelling headphones are such a blessing for me. i've always been sensitive to noise and i get overstimulated easy when out in public. they give me silence and privacy when I need it. worth every cent!"

"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."

"Literally couldn't think of any pair of IEMs + dongle dacs could sound as analytical as the C3P+ for around $70. ... detail is just sooo much better. The C3P+ is just leagues ahead the I5 in terms of detail and resolution. ... the C3P+ is actually the closest sounding one to really expensive iems or headphone that I have."
"delivers the full package here. ... betting the house regarding this on this pair was fully worth it. ... It matches up (I would not say surpasses) a lot of wired in-ear monitors within this price bracket and slightly above. ... The prowess it shows in keeping the instrument separation clean is something that I really, really appreciate myself for buying this pair, not to mention the rumbly yet controlled, precise lows keep on coming and the highs soar without spice, without hurting your ears."
"Nothing short of a home run, here- the Ear once again brings me all; the way the bass hits on this track is very impactful but not bloated, punchy but not overpowering, and Kendrick’s powerful vocals shine through bright, while I enjoyed the way the Sax keeps on coming in at the right junctions of the song, and the way the cymbals play out on this track is probably one of the best I have heard through amongst all the gear that I have owned and currently own- the first in a wireless, and one of the few if I consider all. ... the timbre sounds natural and uncoloured"

"the Cloud II's microphone sounded the best, the clearer on every single audio device I've tested. I'm still recovering from that one to be honest. It was a surprise that went against everything I've seen on reviews so I'd like to really underline that one because most people thing the Cloud II microphone isn't good. Well, these are the HP version so maybe the reworked HP version actually improved the microphone. ... It's one of the best microphones i've used. Your voice sounds crisp and clear even if you're speaking lower."
"mic crushes the Sony LinkBuds S in noisy/quiet settings ... keeps your voice natural"
"better call quality"

"the bass sounds are nonexistent ... my 30$ EarPods have much better bass sounds ... So if you listen to a lot of bass-heavy music, stay away from these. ... I had to spend a lot of time with equalizer to make them usable."
"the sound quality is terrible imo. ... they sound kind of boxy / middy with less bass response. ... it just sounds flattened. ... these suck ☹️"
"not sound quality ... Samsung buds pro 2 sound way better than apple's ... bowers and Wilkins pi6 and pi8 even better sound quality again than this"

"every 60 seconds or so it shrieked for a couple of seconds in an electric staticy kinda way."
"For people that have not lost their hearing yet and can still hear very high-pitched noises, these earbuds produce a constant high-pitched sound even when both ANC and transparancy mode are disabled. ... This sound is amplified greatly when transparancy mode is enabled so I guess it's related to that feature"

"Yeah the battery life on Apple Watch is pathetic. ... Like I have the 4G Apple watch which I wear when I am out of town just in case my iphone dies or gets broken and I am in an emergency. That happened to me a few months back. I had my watch and only my watch. I had 4G turned on for emergency services and GPS turned on so I can find my way home. Convienent and life saving right? Except the stupid thing died after an hour and after that I was stuck with no communication abilities at all in the middle of the night wandering the streets. What good is having all of those capabilities if they are just going to die on you after 10 minutes? ... other than as an emergency backup for my phone (which I have now proven is a joke in a real life emergency)"
"If I record for more than 14 minutes it will freeze and battery is already almost dead. This is at night night by the way so temperature isn't high."
"the battery now wears out very quickly - after about 1 hour of usage."

"First day of having them in for more than a few minutes (about 2 hours) and my ears HURT. ... A longer wear session was too painful though."
"too big"
"the new buds DO NOT fit my ears at all."
Samsung galaxy ear buds i got when I got my phone through a deal
r/SteamDeck • What Earbuds do you use ->I just use my Galaxy Buds 3 or 3 pro and they have no noticeable latency. No dongle required and can use them with my phone after.
r/ROGAllyX • 2.4g true wireless earbuds for my ROG ally X ->If buget ian't an issue go for Buds3 Pro ✨️ Here are your options for a Galaxy Buds Buds Core < Buds FE < Buds3 FE < Buds3 < Buds3 Pro
r/samsunggalaxy • best earbuds for samsung? ->I got a pair in the black Friday sale and they arrived today, first impressions are good, but nothing blows you away. They're just good for bog standard everyday wireless earbuds and I'd say probably worth it for the price I got them for, 150 reduced from £219. Bearing in mind the buds4 will probably be at least 250
r/galaxybuds • Buds 3 series worth it? Or wait for 4 ->So in the Bluetooth settings now you don't even need the gear app if you updated to the latest drivers for the Galaxy buds 3 there is a setting to change them to low latency gaming mode EDIT: I do not know if this is available with non Samsung devices l sorry.
r/LegionGo • What headphones are you guys using? Preferably wireless. Legion go S. ->I use the buds 3 non pro for work, never had any complaints about call quality. I really don't see a reason for both active and passive noise cancellation when I'm sitting in a quiet office
r/galaxybuds • Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro for Work: Good Choice? ->Absolutely the same dilemma only I lost my Huawei freebuds 5i headphones and I hate to say it I'd go for the Samsung Galaxy buds 3 Fe because they have the offline find feature
r/Earbuds • You lost your galaxy buds fe and you want to replace them, what are you getting? ->Samsung Galaxy buds 3 or 2. You can easily find them in many online stores for well below 2k
r/askSouthAfrica • Looking for a good pair of Headphones or Earphones for Work Calls? ->Definitely not samsung earbuds 3. I didn't buy the pro version because of the cost, but my earbuds 3 randomly disconnects when there is no audio for a while, then reconnects itself after that. I've tried all the things that the support staff asked me to but just doesn't help.
r/askSingapore • Best ANC earbud for the office and MRT? ->There are 2 types of earbuds, one that goes into your ear canal and one that sits just outside your ear canal. The one that just sits outside the ear canal let's in more outside sound. Example the regular Samsung Buds 3 , Bose Ultra Open, Sony Float Run Open , Shokz OpenFit earbuds. Wired open ear buds are less common and u need to have a headphone jack. Open wired headphone for mobile use are ATH Ava-300, Koss Porta Pro.
r/HeadphoneAdvice • Are open-ear earbuds better for daily use? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
