After years of searching, my perfect ear bud has been found...
It's extremely rare that I give out a 5 star review for a tech product of any kind, but I honestly, trying to nitpick these would be reaching. Like. My only gripe is I wish the little charging case had a small hole on it to loop a Keychain through for easier carrying. Beyond that, these are the best earbuds I've personally owned.Let me put it in perspective with a breakdown of the issues I've had with ear buds over the years:I have sensory issues and am extremely sensitive to pressure on my ears/head. I can't wear over ear headphones without getting headaches. Ear buds I can tolerate much better but I have spent over a decade trying to find an ear bud that didn't just start slipping out of my ear or that wouldn't make my ears sore over time. My ears canal isn't exceptionally tiny but my outer ear is quite small and most ear buds simply didn't work. They were the wrong shape or just too large to fit in the ear opening and stay put unless I crammed them into my ear canal.But that doesn't work long term. Inevitably, I had to push the earbud back into place. Back in the days of wired buds this was a tolerable inconvenience. I was fine with that. I rocked the first Gen Bluetooth Bose ear buds, the ones connected by a wire to each other, for a couple years and they were tolerable but still constantly popped out of my ears.When true wireless came out having to adjust and push ear buds back in my ears became an intolerable frustration. I was constantly tripping the touch controls no matter how careful I was, and when you have to push earbuds back into place ever 15 to 20 minutes and you're pausing your music or accidentally hanging up on a call, it makes the buds feel pointless to have.I've tried pixel buds, JBL, skull candy, beats, Sony, JLab, on and on and none of them ever fit right. They were all slipping out no matter what I did and they inevitable made my ears hurt within an hour of wear.These don't do that. I can run on the treadmill, clean my house, do yoga, dance around, act a fool and these buds stay in place comfortably for hours. If I do need to make a minor readjustment, the physical click button on the stem means I don't accidentally pause my music or audio book anymore, and when I need to, it's a reliable, easy single click on the stem to adjust the noise canceling or pause my audio.The fact that the button is a physical one and has a nice little click to it is so satisfying. I miss fiddly technology. Stuff with buttons and dials. In a world full of Everything is Touch Navigated Now, a single clickable button is such a nice return to form.The form factor of these buds is lightweight, comfortable, and for the first time ever I don't feel like I'm fighting my headphones.The next thing is sound quality. I am kind of picky about sound quality and clarity. These things sound amazing. The equalizer that you can use in the app makes tweaking them to exactly what I want so easy. On top of that, the ANC has its own adjustability to filter high, mid, or low frequency noise, as well as an adaptive setting to suit my needs for any environment. The transparency mode isn't full of that scratchy noise I have come to expect from earbuds. It's crisp and clear with a very subtly, soft white noise that is actually pretty great for when I just need to combat my tinnitus but stay aware of my kiddo running around.The app has a lot of great features, including a find my buds feature if you should lose track of one or both of them, and that's minor gripe number 2. It'd be great if there was a find my buds feature for the charging case itself in case I misplace the whole thing, but having some kind of device location at all is still nice and not a necessity, just a perk.These headphones charge quickly and I've honestly never been in a situation where the headphones have died on me when I've been using them. The battery life is solid I've used them with ANC on for 3 to 4 hours at a time. The app gives you a readout of the individual batter life of each headphone so you know at a glance when you're getting low, but I've yet to have them dip below 25% during heavy use.The case charges by usb c, which is nice. It charges pretty quickly, too.I liked these so much I bought a pair for my girlfriend who is equally sensitive and has had the same issues as I have with ear buds in the past. She lives in noise canceling buds to help her focus and avoid overstimulation and she too, agrees that these are so comfortable and fit so well that she forgets they're in sometimes.All in all, I've never had any issues with connectivity or sound quality, they sound great, fit great, have great features, and at under $100 they are a great deal. My Samsung buds cost twice that and I hated them. These are excellent. Absolutely recommend.Ver másVer menos
