    Great video! I’ve recently upgraded to the AirPods Pro 2 and absolutely loving them. They sound great, ANC and transparency modes are fantastic, and I love the little case. Definitely highly recommend them! I don’t know how they did it, but somehow the transparency mode is much more natural than that of the Sony WH-1000XM5s. Appreciate how naturally I can carry a conversation.

    I still remember the world when we didn’t need to watch a video to learn how to do the simplest things in life. At what point did humanity decide it can’t think for itself? Or is it just content creators struggling to come up with better video making ideas?

    I just picked up the Jabra Elite 8 – Definitely my new fave.

    My opinion: Jabra Elite 75T are still the best.

    CNET should make a list of the best AirPods (non Pro) style wireless earbuds that aren’t made by Apple.

    I’m talking about the type that does NOT go into your ear canal with the little plug tips like 99% of wireless earbuds do.

    JBL has like 1 model. SoundPeats have like 2 models. Truefree and Zonwoo have like 1 or 2 models. Nothing has like 1 model.

    You should inform people of those designs because many people out there don’t like earbuds that dig into their ear canal because it causes discomfort/pain after like 30-60 minutes of usage.

    I can’t stand egg looking buds sticking out of my ears.
    The Nothing Ear 1’s have been great for me! I’ve had them out in Saltwater fishing here in SE Texas in 100° degree weather, rain, etc.
    The ANC blocks off all noises inside the house, especially my Wife’s phone when she’s watching My 600lb life! ????
    I’m getting the Nothing Ear 2’s soon..
    They are extremely light & comfortable! Last plenty long enough for me when watching movies, music, etc.

    Status Audio Between ANC3s are the best sounding and feeling earbuds Ive used. Dunno about longevity because I’ve only had them a few months. Anker is my other choice. My favorites are Liberty Pro3 and Liberty Air 2. The Pro3 has LDAC

    im so mad that they abandoned the power beats bro design. they sound great and fit great.

  16. @javtimestwo

    January 22, 2024 at 11:36 pm

    This was a fun video. The PowerBeats Pro are the most secure that I have found. I have 2 pairs myself and I never worry about them falling off whenever doing an activity. I cannot say the same with earbuds that do not have a hook.
    About those Sony linkbuds-care to share your thoughts on those? Sony usually has high quality audio so I’m thinking those might off a great sound but I would be worried if they will stay in my ears.

    I recently purchased a pair of wireless no-name earbuds for about $30. After using them for only a couple of weeks they are easily superior to the more expensive apple AirPods. Don’t be brainwashed into thinking that you’ve got to spend $150 or more to get quality earbuds.

    These connect easier, stay connected, last longer and even allow me to adjust the volume – all things the Apple version didn’t do

    Help: I’m looking for a great pair of earbuds to use with Teams and Webex calls through my computer (VoIP connection) that doesn’t glitch out. I have the Bose Wireless Sound Sport from 2019. Whenever I’m on a Teams call. The audio glitches out and I end up not hearing everything that everyone saying.

    Do not spend more than 50 bucks for tws. They don’t last more than 2-3 years if you use daily. These guys trick you into spending lot on tws.

    I bought a pair of Soundcore Life Note E a few years ago for around $50 during Black Friday. I absolutely love them and they are still running strong. I can get about 9 hours before I need to put them back in the case to recharge. The only time I used them for that long is on a few road trips. The sound quality is good too and rivals more expensive buds
