Great video guys!!!
A great list 😊
Excellent round up from you, as usual. Terrific work. Thank you guys 👍🏻👍🏻
GREAT review fellas! love the humour and the deep thoughts~! subscribed~!👍
Cheers!
Wow !!! Awesome videos guys ! Thank you very much! You've done an excellent job !
And for the second time you choose my DHRME 😃😃 thanks!
Cheers Patrick 😃
Thank you for the Oppo recomandation. Bought for 99e Black Friday, and love them.
That's an amazing deal!
Thank you for making top notch content. Yall hilarious
best audio tech channel I know, great picks!
very useful video
Nice list guys great work 🇨🇮😎
Cheers Mary!
I have to say, I'm surprised the Between 3ANC are only a honorable mention & not a top 10... but I do agree with the fact of having so many options nowadays
Yall humor is amazing
Great video, and I don’t have an issues with my Sennheiser 3 earbuds.
Does liberty 4 have any difference between different stocks? Ex- q30 broke the hinge on first stock but they fixed after
Great stuff guys. Invaluable information. You guys keep me laughing. When my financial situation changes, I WILL be back contributing on your Patreon. Thank you 🙏
We always appreciate you!! Take care buddy 🙏
Ok, almost pulling the trigger for the Jabras, but can you do a review of the Denon Perl pros please 🙏
What would you suggest for buds paired with galaxy s23u? I am looking for good anc and good bass for music.
Super glad to see the 1More Evos and the Earfuns on the list. Love the list !
Cheers man 👊
Would you recommend eartips for elite 10 ?
hi , is it worth buying enco x2 now as it is almost 2 years old. or shall i go for one plus buds pro 2 or song link buds s or any other alternatives at that price range
Depends on the price, mine is still going strong!
Just lost my oppo case. After watching, I just bought another pair. Originally my A/B test on Gojira, The trails closed the deal on them. They are joining my Sennheiser HD 600s in my audio hall of fame. For some perspective, my first pair of HD 600s lasted 25 years and was going strong before I lost them in a move. They outlived 2 headphone amps. We've come along way though. My $200 ifi Zen Dac now sounds as good as my old $699 Burson HD160 amp.
Great video!
You guys are simply awesome. I love your editing and your content. I have come to terms that my ears are defective and need over the ear hooks listening apparatus. Would you mind doing the same type of review for over the ear hook buds?
Your wish might be our command? ;)
Another awesome roundup for this year! Kudos for the hard work you guysss!!!... 👏👏👏 Can't wait for what 2024 brings to the TWS Market! Cheers!
Thanks Darren 👊
Another great video guys. Thanks! Last year, I bought Edifier Stax Spirit S3 thanks to your review and I am very happy with it.
One question: Like Edifier Stax Spirit, do you have any earbuds suggestion that I mainly pay for the sound quality? I really do not care about ANC, transparency, calls, etc. but I do not have 500 euros for high-end ones. Any suggestions?
PS: Mostly listening to progressive rock/metal and jazz fusion.
Campfire Orbit! Final ZE3000!
@@DHRME You're the best ♥️
@@kabolat Noble Audio Fokus Mystique! SoundCore Engine 4! Status Between - first version!
My only problem with the LinkBuds S was that at 80% volume music starts having distortion.
Hi, earfun air pro 3 better sounding than the free pro 3?
Torn between XM5 and AZ80. Which should I get?
Liberty 4 ANC or sony wf- c700 or jpl tune230 ? Plzzzz My prefrences are sound quality, call, battery, anc
what happened to edifier neo buds pro 2? 8 mics and ldac and many other features?
Your list is very good. It weighs the pros and cons which give reasons why one earbud is higher than another. The Sennheiser Momentum 3 are good buds but the reliability, connection, or battery drain knock them down quite a bit. Thanks, guys👍
Love Love your channel and feel you guys are about as honest as it gets and love the humor too. As to this review I ended up with the Jabra Elite 10's. I do really like them but I was really more looking for the BEST overall sounding buds. Like without needing a lot of EQ etc..And saying that I mean for home use only...in a quiet room..not running, biking, anything. Just for MUSIC vs using my loud studio monitors.. In that case as many have mentioned would you give the nod to the b&0 ex? Or if you've tried the Denon Perl Pros..which are prob just mostly the same as what was NuraTrue pros? In other words, or Master Dynamics...I dunno...other than COMFORT Which IS important..otherwise you won' use the buds very long...All that matters to me is the BEST sound. ANC/Transparency is all good...but in a quiet room...lol away from the wife, can you recommend what you may feel are THE best SOUNDING buds or at least near the best SOUND only... again without bells/whistles? I'd rather not buy and return..also that's not so fair to the vendors...even an Amazon...too many returns..poor guys LOL. Thx Shaun.
To be honest if youre gonna use them at home and want the best sound quality you should go or wired iems, a 50 dollars pair is often better than 350 dollars tws…
@@Mep001 Good point. However if you are still going to use a phone as the source? wired can still be a pain..and you'd need a dongle as almost no phones have headphone jacks these days. I was a Tidal user but switched to Spotify. Their audio still tops out at just 320kbs., pretty crappy but OK, .so I think wired is not going to make a huge difference sound wise...unless you are streaming high rez maybe. Anyway good point as to cost though, you are correct on that for sure..vs the $350 plus tws earbuds. TOO much $$ vs excellent wired...spot on.
Awesome work guys and I completely agree. I would have picked the enco x2 but man the calls on freebuds pro 3... Wow.
Was hoping for an enco x3 thsi year but sadly nothing..
😢😢. Freebuds Pro 3 buds of the year in my opinion.
For Rohan: as someone who also 🤣constantly has airpods pro sliding out of only my left ear, does Jabra Elite 10 beat stem-style buds ( huawei / oppo ) in comfort and fit security?
Yes. It’s pretty good. I use different sized buds in each ear.
which one is the best call quality under noisy environment (for android user)?
hi 🙏 do you know any bt earbuds app that can set the sound Decibel Output flat to a specific value (say 70db).
the app is not about controlling the volume % but to produce a flat Decibel Output Value.
say like,
watching a movie,
no matter if it a sound of b0mb blasting or leaves fall on the water, the flat Decibel Output to the earbud, still the same flat 70db. tq in adv 🙏
Great Video guys as always,
but where are the liberty 4 NC? Missing because Liberty 4 already in the list or earfun air pro 3?
Gotta give Dangerous Home Recreational Methods Entertainment some credit 😂
We prefer the 4 to the NC 🤷
@@DHRMEok thank you.. and between NC and the Earfun, which do you like more?
Nice Review. The EarFun Air Pro 3s also have multipoint connection. I have a pair and really enjoy them. Agree with your comments regarding sound quality.The ANC is pretty good. Even in Normal mode outside sounds are effectively reduced.. Killer pair for the price.
When are you gonna review the Soundpeats air 4 pro?
Just compare about sound quality Oppo enco x2 with Liberty 4NC. Which one is better?
I just tried testing the Edifier Neobuds pro (1) i already owned, the Nothing ear 2, and the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC. For me this is harder then i thought. The sound from the good old Edifier buds is (for me ) by far better (more details, more en same fatter bass ) . So could you gues help me out just because i use the calling "feature" more .
What should you choos, or could je maybe compare these 3 ?
Houdoe 😊
Tough man! Maybe Edifier.
You guys are awesome! If I may ask, are Earfun higher on the list because of value for money? Liberty 4 and Earfun Pro 3 are the same price right now on Amazon…would Liberty 4 come out on top? 🤔
Value for money, sound, ANC, many factors
A couple of days ago I ordered Liberty4 for only 58$ (incl. shipment), at this price they beat all others 😆
Which are the best earbuds for biking in the wind?
(You also live in the Netherlands, so you know what I mean! 😁)
Thanks
Thank you very much for your great and sympathetic work. You're really helping people who are interested in this kind of thing. In the telephone tests, I would think it would be good to hear three or four spoken sentences in a normal room (for example, if you are talking on the phone at home). Other than that, there's absolutely nothing I can do 😊
What about the Jabra Elite 8 Active? You haven't tried them, or they just don't make the top 15 or honorable mentions? Thanks
We've done a video on it. :)
can anyone tell which between liberty 4NC - JBL live pro2 - earfun air pro 3 has the best sound quality
JBL is about sound quality, but usually really lacks volume. Soundcore has amazing sound and among best for volume, and best ex customization(incl. hearID, but better take Liberty 4 not 4nc) Don't know about earfun.
Hey DHRME! I would like to know what is the top 3 best earbuds for the following aspects (no budget):
*they are in order of importance
1- No stem or big touch area, like the Bose's or the Denon's
2- Comfort (not too big, that stays in ear for long periods)
3- Warm, full and energetic sound
4- Wide soundstage
5- Strong ANC
6- Good transparency
7- Some extra features, with good connectability
I was thinking of the XM5's, AZ80's or the Jabra Elite 10's...
After 100000000s of videos like yours i watched and 1000000000s of forums iv read thourghly , i desided my buds to go will be "huawei's freebuds pro 3" it ticks everything for me , atleast on papers ❤❤❤
When Oppo enco X3 will release?? Any idea
You guys should review Fiil earbuds also
Please review realme buds air 5 pro. I heard that it's excellent for the buck overall
I really liked the link buds s buds I was only getting 2.5 hours of use per charge
I am still tempted to return my wf1000xm5 for Elite 10. I might consider doing so after watching this video. I really love them, but the elite 10 is more than perfect, so it seems from the reviews I've watched and read.
I adore mine. Nuff said
@@toraow you wouldn't return them for the Jabra Elite 10?
I have been experiencing connection dropouts a lot when using LDAC, so I have to switch to the stable connection mode and when not using LDAC to. Overall, I love them, but I want to try the Jabra Elite 10 mainly because of its comfort, waterproofing, and sweat resistance. You can connect up to more than two devices at the same time. According to Amazon reviews, the sound quality is amazing to and you have spatial audio, which can be used on any music stream services. Does anybody own the Jabra Elite 10 or then Technics AZ80, or maybe can recommend better earbuds in the same price bracket even though there are no better earbuds than the WF1000XM5 in this price range. Thank you
I returned my Elite 10s. The ANC and bass are not there at all.
I always try to do detailed research before purchasing anything and when I bought the Elite 10 i have been in contact with Jabra a lot and one customer service agent told me and I quote, " The Semi-open design is intended to help with things like the occlusion affect (where we can hear our footfalls through the earbuds) and other similar challenges.
We expect that it should have no effect on the ANC or Heartrhough mode as this was also used with the Jabra Elite 85t without challenge".
The recent update with the wind reduction feature is very effective and helps the ANC a lot.
@OoSysteM0fADownoO
How about the realms buds air 5 pro ?
You’re making me jealous holding your flips and folds in the camera all the time.
Can I ask, please, if you think using third-party apps to tune the sound quality on earbuds is a good idea, and if you do, do you have recommendations? I use third-party apps, and I feel they do make a massive difference.
I think it’s safe in most cases. But push the drivers beyond what they can do and they might get damaged. I’ve no evidence one way or the other. Also, if you’re pushing the buds far beyond their regular tuning…. maybe get buds that sound like that? Just a thought :)
@@DHRME thank you for you response
I 100% agree. The soundcore a20i sound average until I use the SoundID app, and they come alive, and sound like the beoplay ex to my ears..... but they crackle much more unfortunately: / definitely pros/cons to aftermarket eq.
Bro suggest me the best EQ settings for Jabra Elite 10
interesting that there are no beats on our list? are they subpar?
Can you please review Oppo enco air 3 pro is it quite similar to oppo Enco x2 just 10 to 20% lesser quality
So are the Liberty 4s better than the Liberty 4 NCs? Mainly talking sound quality
Liberty4NC is bassier, Liberty4 is more balanced, so it depends on what "sound quality means to you. Also worth mentioning, that HearID is more precise in Liberty4, because it calibrates for each ear separately in this model.
Of those which can be submerged- is it possible to listen to the music via BT underwater??? ;)
Pop pop popsicle.... Test test testicle 😂. Keeps on ringing in my head.
Wow this was a great video 👏♥️
Im happy with the edifier w240tn, but im looking for headphone so im gonna check on that video 🚶🏾
As an Enco X2 owner who has spent many an hour wearing them I would largely agree with the pick. However, is it just me or can they sometimes sound really metallic? I've done several (or more) Golden Sound tests but basically to try and fake my way to better highs to make them less metallic and sibilant but hasn't really worked.
So is it just me?
Your buds might be faulty since mine are not
@@mineryt775they definitely aren't faulty 😂 it's more to do with the driver (planar)
Appreciate your efforts 👏👍 helpful too..
Excitedly waiting to see if jabra elite 10 has made it to ur list or not, which is my current daily driver 😎
"Could you please review the Oppo Enco Air 3 Pro? Many reviewers have compared them to the Oppo Enco X2 in terms of sound quality, suggesting there's only a 10% to 20% difference. I'd love to see a comparison video from you, especially since you're an expert in sound quality. Looking forward to it!"
Danke!
Bitte!
There's somethin in this. When you have an offer to review a product for a company and they inviting you with business class ticket or simply giving you something for free, a reviewer at that point is not objective anymore.
BTW the very best for you guys, have a nice day
The only reason to buy the B&O EX is the stellar sound quality and you didn't even mention it. I'm surprised the Sony XM5 didn't make it on the list but I have to admit I won't be getting them because of the damb foam tips and I don't think Sony even sells them when they wear out.😱 You guys do a great job and you're work is very much appreciated. Thank you. 💯👍🇺🇸
Did we not mention the sound? Oops. I guess it seems so obvious to us, that we almost didn't catch that. Thanks!
@@DHRME Yeah I guess you're right for 400.00$ they'd have to sound good. 💯🇺🇸
Lots of fellow commenters who don’t seem to understand subjectivity and nuance. Just because your favorite earbuds didn’t make the list doesn’t invalidate DHRME’s picks here. Just because you value categories X and Y more than DHRME doesn’t mean that you’re right and DHRME is wrong.
I really enjoyed this video, yet if I were to make my own list I would rank these in a different order.
Thank you! And that was the whole point!
I know oppo is good, I use a neck band m32 😊. Didn't expect to be at the top. I prefer neckbands over ear buds still. What's your thought on this?
Definitely use it if that works for you!
@@DHRMEYup, I'll switch to tws after a while, because of the ease of use. It's not trendy. My other tools are 520ch sony and realme Neo.
1more evo are on discount on Amazon, the lowest price since I am watching it. What would you guys say: 1more evo (honorable mention) or xm5 (no mention?)? Of course different price categories, but you only have two ears…
I'm surprised no Bose nor Sony on this list, I like the Jabra one though
DHRME-dudes having rings monitoring everything. I love my Oura ring
Haha nice one! How’re you liking it?
@@DHRMEI think it’s one of the best inventions ever made. It helps me to stay balanced in life. I’ve had trouble with that in the past. I have a demanding job, I’m a Rocket Engineer. It’s expensive but worth it.
Wonder if the Jabra Elite 8 Active is overall comparable to Jabra Elite 10.
We made a video on that!
Great review guys! For a person whom calls and watching content is very important, a tier above music consumption, which buds would you suggest between the Oppo enco x2 and the oneplus buds pro 2. I do know the oppo is much better sounding with its golden sound than the golden sound of the op but I have watched a lot of reviews which say that the microphone quality, call quality and battery life on the enco is not that good which it is on the Oneplus ones.
Could you just give me some clarity on this as to which one to go with for being a person who takes a lot of calls and also listens to a fair amount of music on the go while travelling, really would love your input.
I've owned both for a short period, they both largely sound the same.
I couldn't answer your question about which would be better given your circumstances (taking lots of calls as this is something I don't really do). Travelling I've done in them, worked so well on the plane and train. They have a quick charge too if you're in a bind.
I've tried a lot of TWS since and they've always been sent back. The only ones that came close were the Nuratrue Pro (Denon Perl Pro now). They sounded better but are just too big for my ears (and for the outside world IMO).
For calls the best is huawey freebuds, even the first version is better than 90% of the tws
@@Mep001 can't buy huawei products in india
Oh yeah, I knew it, Jabra would seal the deal 👑
Soundcore aerofit pro review!!!
The second I saw this video, I was like, finally.
👊
Great list, but none of them would fit my needs. Sony wf1000xm5 made on my list and is my daily driver.
Earfun Airpro 3 are great ! have 2 pairs
Lol me too !!! They are great for there price. I'm impressed!!
Encho X2 vs Elite 10?
😂😂😂🤣 nice one guys! 😊
Cheers!
Nice round up (I have 5 on the list including #1 plus one on the honorable mentioned and of course several more not mentioned) and with the understanding rankings are subjective I still have ONE major push back with the Momentum 3s being that far back on you list. They sound better, have better ANC, better battery life and better transparency than almost everything on the list. I find many buds have issues when no longer in rotation particularly with battery/charging. I have Soundcores that won't charge past 80%, B&Os that charge when they feel like, last gen Sony's were known for similar issues. Comes with the territory of small lithium batteries. Not meant to last forever.
True. This is a very personal list. And we love the Sennies too, but the second time made us more reticent to recommend them.
For me this year it is the Status 3ANC
Nice one Chad 👌
For apple Lose 😂😂😂 At this point I just keep watching your videos for the entertainment value you guys provide. Keep going 🔥🔥
In my opinion the OnePlus buds pro 2 have much better ANC than the really bad ANC on the Sennheiser momentum 3 true wireless. Oh well.
Love your reviews, fun and informative. And they're independent whereas some reviewers seem reticent about saying negetive things about some earbuds.
My daily workhorse is apple airpods pro 2 (I'm using apple, android and Windows devices. I forget I'm wearing the Airpods pro 2, they're excellent all rounders and the only earbuds I've had which screen out the sharp screeching on the London underground Jubilee line).
I had the link bud S in the past and loved those. And liked the Earfun pro 3 as a cheaper workhorse (helped my eq'ing).
I decided to go for the Status Between ANC, a brand I hadn't heard of until recently. I've had these for a few days and absolutely loving them. Easily the best wireless earbuds I've ever had for audio quality, ever (and I've had quite a few). Really shows how little codecs matter in comparison to hardware and tuning. I'm finding these a very good fit and very comfortable for me. The long battery life is a big plus. It's great for using more than one device as well.
I'm not using these in situations where ANC and transparency are that important but they seem decent for those as well.
And it's great having something that doesn't look like yet another apple earpod design or a button in your ear!
Agree - the Status are great!
@@DHRME I've been using the Status Between ANC for a few days now and they are superb. The audio quality and comfort,
I forget I'm wearing them.
One huge surprise was the difference it makes with listening directly to music, audible titles, podcasts stored on my apple watch. I'd accepted that my LG v60 to earbuds (with aptx adaptive and LDAC), or using an iPhone would sound better than listening to music directly from my apple watch. The difference though with the Status Between ANC used with the apple watch is amazing. I found myself dancing to a piece of music that's on my watch (using Apple music which sounds much better than Spotify especially on my android devices). Then absorbed listening to the intricacy of a haunting piano piece by Saint Saens (classical) from my apple watch. Then some Lana Del Rey.
I'd half been thinking about a more basic fitness tracker when my apple watch 6 finally gives out (I use it alongside my android phone). But the ability to enjoy music , audio books, podcasts more deeply with these Status Between ANC has got me rethinking that (plus I use the voice commands a lot with the apple watch, especially at home and nfc payments when out and about and it's integrated into Microsoft To-do).
And just to add, it's an absolute myth that Apple Airpods are only good for a total Apple ecosystem. I use them with apple, android and Windows. The touch controls work brilliantly with whatever device they're paired to (so I don't loose out on stem stroking, gentle squeezing to change ANC/transparency, as well as the advantages of the Airpods pro 2 ANC, transparency etc).
Spatial audio I'm not that fussed about. I also use airpods paired to an ipad which gives me firmware updates.
What exactly is pulling connection?
You don't stay connected to multiple devices, but if you've previously paired with a phone, for example. You can select the earbuds from the bluetooth menu. Don't need to go into pairing mode.
I feel like the Freebuds pro 3 are too high. 4hrs battery and worse anc + transparency imo means they for sure should be down below airpods pro 2
M&D mw09, the new creative AurvanaAce 2 earbuds using xmems instead of drivers or diaphragms...finally Devial5 Gemini II. Great job guys. As always.
Also could you guys go over for some the difference between the built-in equalizer that an earbud manufacturer gives you in their app versus say title, Amazon music, your own power amp. It would be nice to get a little better understanding seeing as people think oh it doesn't come with an EQ on the companion app you really don't need that
Have you tried the aurvana yet?? I'm so stoked to see people's reviews
@@danielvanatta8884 no I don't think they are available I think you can pre-order them on the 10th of December and so no I haven't tried them I did see kind of like a first-hand look at them but they don't go into the sound you know what it sounds like this than the other
@@danielvanatta8884they are great get a pair but the only problem they have and I mean real problem is you are stuck in whatever mode you answer the phone in so if you pick up a call in ambient and wanna switch to just ANC off it won't switch. You have to hang up switch then call back. But you can to it while listening to music it's just calls
I got the creative ace 2 an they are great I've been eyeing the mw09 but didn't realize they also use xmems so I'ma going to have to get a pair now to compare the two. I'ma keep acr 2 as work out one s an the others as just listening to music

Skullcandy Rail ANC review?
Thanks for the ranking! Oh, just got the Freebuds Pro 3 today! While mic quality is excellent, sound quality is below average to my ears (using Stax Omega electrostatics for years as a desktop unit). Lypertek Z5 was way better than these in terms of sound quality for instance even it's been released two or so years ago. Linkbuds S' mic quality and anc are worse but sound quality was better. If there is someone who seeks pure sound quality, go somewhere else lol. Anyways I will use them as calling unit since they're the best in its category I've ever used. Thanks again!
I'm quite surprised that sony xm5, quitecomfort 2 and Ultra, pixel buds pro did not make it to the list. Is there a specific reason? Great work as usual.
These are just our personal favorites and ones we would end up recommending at different price points. We also tried to restrict it to one per brand and in some cases we cut out (like the Bose) due to issues we've mentioned here.
where is sony wf1000 xm5 ?
Thanks
Thank you Andrew!
So which one is the winner for calls?
Number 4
We want the Denon Perl Pro review!! All the reviews are saying it's the best sounding.....I'm saying this on behalf of everyone
This, this and this!
I had the denons and sent them back the next day! To me the anc was non existent and the transparency was very bad. Sound was good but the fit of the buds are awful. Many people will find it hard to even get a good seal with them.
@@roguegorilla8981 Were you blown away by the sound or it was just okay? I've never really prioritised anything else honestly
Great list! Helps with this year's Christmas shopping. Can you please add the following frequency graphs to your squiglink? In order of importance:
1. Jabra elite 10 (and 8 active)
2. Beoplay eq (if you still have it)
3. Technics Az80 (az60 if you still have it)
4. Nothing ear 2
5. Airpods pro 2 usbC (add bass boost preset eq to see how that affects the sound)
@@roguegorilla8981 Funny, how different we all are. To me, they are the best and most comfortable fitting buds of many many I had here. Big, sure (although the part inside the ear actually is quite small) but given they fit ones ears, they are ultra stable and locked in. Love them.
Dan Harmon Real Mad Ese…pop pop
Can u recomend best call quality plus best bass boosted sound quality with excellent battery (preferably stemless) under 150$..?
Nothing ear 2
@@Mep001 no stemless, and battery is also 4hrs only.
I decided to buy jabra elite 7 pro, and i m loving it, bassy sound, 8 hrs battery, stemless, and small size, durable form, and call quality is also very nice. I m satisfied.
Hi guys, good video as always. I need to buy a pair of earbuds for 60/70€. What do you suggest between Samsung Galaxy Buds2 (70€), Soundcore Liberty 4 NC (63€) and Earfun Air Pro 3 (68€)?
I have a samsung phone btw. Thanks!
Really tough!
