SoundPEATS - Air5

The soundpeats is straight facts and I love them

If you don’t want to have ear pain wearing it for more than 30 minutes than go for Soundpeats Air5. I am using air4 and you don’t even feel you have it simply plugged into your ears. It’s light and doesn’t have rubber tips that makes your ears itchy.

They are priced well. I like these. Bass is better than expected.

Soundpeats Air5 are my favorites. Their ANC is enough for my needs.

Soundpeats Air5 ANC is surprisingly effective. I usually don't care that much about ANC and wasn't expecting this since the Air4 ANC is little more than an EQ setting. Worth a try. They sound great with strong bass for this style.

I like Soundpeats Air5. Comfortable and sound really good. They have ANC. They just came out with a lower priced Air5 Lite that doesn't have noise cancelling. I haven't heard them.

I bought another when they upgraded to Bluetooth 5.3. I have my older ones paired with a Vizio TV. They sound really good. I do think the Air5 is even better but they fit my ears ok.

I like the Soundpeats Air5. Haven't tried The Oppo Enco yet. I like the Soundcore k20i in that price range.

I bought the following on Amazon, tested all of them (audiophile obsession level), then returned all but kept one: HiFiman Svanar Wireless Audio technica AZ80 Denon Perl Pro Edifier Stax Spirit S10 Edifier NeoBuds Pro 2 SoundPEATS Capsule 3 Pro+ SoundPEATS Air5 My top 3 were Denon Perl Pro (please go for this one and you won't be disappointed), AZ80, & Svanar Wireless (this is one of the best sounding along with the AZ80 & Denon, but the Svanar has issues with dropping on Android phones, and the battery life is dogshit)

You can hear what they sound like [here](https://youtu.be/ai7jujoC87M). I recorded the output of the Air5 and other semi in ear options (well, the man ones that have active noise cancellation specifically) using Binaural mics. It will at least give you an idea of what to expect before deciding whether to pull the trigger

I just compared the main semi in ear models with ANC out there - https://youtu.be/Pn8jPFtjR_4 (and [here](https://youtu.be/ai7jujoC87M) for the sound test) In short, nothing comes close to the Apple Airpod 4 for ANC, sound and design on iOS. On Android, you lose quite a bit in terms of features and functions and might want to consider one of the other models, all of which have their compromises. The Huawei FreeBuds 5 were ok, but their unique shape didn't really work for me. The Samsung Buds 3 felt a bit beta with some software-based glitches, and the Airpod 3-style design didn't work as well for my ears. They also lack true multipoint. Soundpeats Air5 are also ok - they have five different ear anatomy settings that allow you to personalise the ANC to your ear shape, but they lack a few features like wear detection etc. The QCY model are good bang for buck, but the sound and ANC fall a bit behind the others (as you would expect being a true budget option) The Oppo Enco Air3 you mentioned are nice enough - basic but fine, but they don't have ANC

Agree with all the points except better microphone. I cannot be heard by the caller when I use the MTW4, the sound is low and feels like coming from a distance. I have bought the much cheaper Galaxy Buds FE to be used exclusively for phone calls while the music listening happens on the MTW4.

Well, I tried. It didn’t make any difference to the sound the caller heard.

I have the soundcore k20i cheap earbuds and they do function well mainly for calls because of the mic. Soundpeats Air5 absolutely shit mid range earbuds that don't function well on calls, stuttering bluetooth connection but anc is amazing. Airpods 4th gen ANC, tried the apple ecosystem, that spatial head tracking when connected to 2 devices interrupts the Bluetooth and there's no option to permanently turn it off, haven't fully explored other things about it.

SoundPeats Air 5. Cracking buds for the price and often on offer.

I got my pair today and I'm really surprised how great they sound using Spotify and audible on my Pixel 9. I prefer the sound profile to my SoundPeats Air 5s, which are a similar design and price.

I got some soundpeats air 5's today to try since they are half the price of the buds3 but they don't fit as tight as my air 3's resulting in lower quality audio. I don't think the firmware update works. I updated the firmware and it still says theres a firmware update. Doesn't seem like its actually updating.

Hey I will just say that from what I’ve experienced it’s hard to get a lot of bass from open ear buds due to lack of seal (no tips). Just because of sound physics high bass comes from it bouncing around in a closed space. That’s why with headphones, closed off pairs have a lot more bass than open pairs. However, I could maybe recommend the SoundPEATS Air 5 (or air 5 lite) as you could use the app to EQ and add more bass.

I don't know why you expected unbranded $25 earbuds to sound good. If you want inexpensive earbuds that shape get some Soundpeats Air.

I still use the Comfobuds as my keep in the pocket pair, for the comfort, unobtrusiveness, and speed of connection after removing them from the case. They have developed an issue where sometimes they'll wake up inside their case and connect to my phone when I don't want them to. For my home listening I use a pair of Soundpeats Air buds. The music quality is better and being open air I still feel "present" in the room and can sing along without sounding weird. My work pair is now some Linkbuds S. They have good call and music quality and really excellent active and more importantly passive noise isolation, along with low latency mode I can game with. Their downside is they stick out a bit far from my ears. I tried Bose QC 2s and hated them. 

Just tried my linkbud s ones again,anc is rubbish,my old jabra elite 4 active are better,now prefer half ear ones like soundpeats air, everyone is different that's why we have so many to choose from 😀

Been using sound peats. I recommend their anc
