"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!"

"The stock tips are good, and imo comfy out of the box which is rare for me as I have picky ears. ... I can wear these for long sessions without feeling the urge to “let my ears breathe” like I get with other sets."
"the MagicOne is the first completely unvented IEM I've tried where it hasn't bothered me, and the pressure seems to equalise out fairly quickly."
"The chassis of the Odyssey fits snugly onto my ears concha with no pointy edges poking or any surface that would create a hotspot on my outer ears."

"I found the live beam 3's on sale on Amazon for 129! ... For the price, I don't think I'd find better."
"An S8 would be great for vacuuming your rugs and carpets ... For $350, my two S8s are very hard to beat! ... Almost all of the ones I thought vacuumed, very, very well have been discontinued except for the S8. ... If a Mova V50 can do 80% as well as our cheap S8s I would be pleased!"
"Overall I think these are super impressive especially for the price. ... These could be bargain of the year.. I'm very happy so far with them"

"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."

"if the router loses power all he'll breaks loose, I have to factory reset everything and set it all back up. This includes anytime a firmware upgrade happens."
"firmware updates breaking basic functionality"
"Netgear told me to factory reset after every firmware update. It took over one hour every time…They write it in every forum thread. They never fixed their firmware. This was an awful experience."
The sound of the soundpeats air5 is bad!
r/Earbuds • I'm looking for in-ears without rubber ->I have the liberty 4 pro and a couple of soundpeats buds , my advice is get the soundpeats of your main priority is top tier audiophile level sound quality the sound quality on that is peak and then get the earfun air 4 pro if you want an overall good earbud with Anc ,transparency and other features then the earfun is the best option. I wouldn't really recommend the liberty 4 nc as it's quite old . A few other personal recommendations would be the OnePlus buds 3 pro or the liberty 4 pro ( chck out the OnePlus buds 4 aswell)
r/Earbuds • I'm confused between three options. Which one would you recommend? ->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.
r/Earbuds • Best buds for tiny ear holes? ->The soundpeats is straight facts and I love them
r/Earbuds • Are expensive earbuds worth it? ->SoundPeats Air 5. Cracking buds for the price and often on offer.
r/GooglePixel • What earbuds are you guys using with your Pixel? ->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.
r/sennheiser • Accentum Open Impressions ->I can comment on Freebuds SE3, Oppo Enco Buds3 and Soundpeats Air5 (non pro) [https://www.reddit.com/r/Earbuds/comments/1noqlbl/comment/nswtesd/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Earbuds/comments/1noqlbl/comment/nswtesd/) \- Soundpeat Air 5 have ANC, but i barely use this as it only filters certain background noises and eats battery. \- For Aptx Lossless you need a compatibel Snapdragon/Aptx device. Most Windows devices can support Aptx with a registery tweak, as AAC is default, but most certainly not Aptx Lossless. You'll need a seperate -Bluetooth dongle with Aptx for this. \- Soundpeats have about realworld 5 hour battery-life without ANC. Good luck with your choice.
r/Earbuds • Semi-in ear recommendations. Which one should I buy : Huawei Freebuds SE 3, Soundpeats 5 APTX Lossless, Oppo Enco Buds 3, Tozo Tonal Fits T21 and JBL Tune Flex 2 ->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.
r/Earbuds • On ear buds no ANC ->been using these for a bit too. anc’s honestly better than i expected, blocks out the usual office noise and people talking around me pretty well.
r/Earbuds • finally tried the soundpeats noise-cancelling earbuds，curious what others think ->Get something like the JBL live flex 3 and for a cheaper option I also recommend the Soundpeats Air 5. Both do an excellent job at being semi in ear.
r/Earbuds • I'm looking for in-ears without rubber ->Just got them yesterday. Much better than my Samsung Buds+. I listen to audiobooks and music from my phone. Today I was at Dunkin and it's a noisy place with their music and A/C. The ANC did a nice job of blocking it all out. 10% coupon at Amazon make these hard to pass up.
