I’d have to say in addition to sound quality, integration with ecosystem plays a part. That’s why I prefer my AirPods with my iPhone rather than my Galaxy Buds with my Galaxy phone. AirPods just interact better in their respective ecosystem. Although, the Beats Fit Pro takes the cake for someone who’s into fitness.

Picked up the Apple AirPod Pro 2 and it really lives up to the hype. I’m in the Apple ecosystem so it is the obvious choice for me, and it continues to deliver. Cannot recommend enough especially for iPhone/iPad/Mac owners.

I don’t like my Samsung earbuds at all. They came free with my Samsung tablet. As luck would have it I had recently lost my Airpods. I didn’t have the extra funds to replace the Airpods so I’m using the Samsung earbuds despite not liking them. It is what it is.

Great list. My go to are my AirPod Pros but the battery life stinks. I just purchased Soundcore’s Liberty 4 and I have to say they are awesome. On sale now for $120

How do u compare it vs the airpod pro beside the battery life?
Joe Lobozzo
November 23, 2022 at 1:27 am
@Hung Tran these are the first generation AirPod pros. IMO the sound quality is just as good, maybe slightly better because the L4 have multiple EQ settings to play with and the also have spatial audio. They fit me much better too. I like the silicone the L4 uses more then the AirPod Pros. The case is nice but it’s a little bigger then the AirPods. The sliding top is neat but I still like the AirPods case more. The noise cancelling is better on the AirPods but not by a lot. The transparency mode is much better on the AirPods.

So you think the AirPods 2 pro and Bose QC 2 aren’t some of the best sounding buds ?
Lol wtf
The list is preety accurate
They said some of the best buds in 2022 ..not every single great earbuds out there 😅

All good choices but Anker Soundcore competes, equals or outright slays anything on this list.
The App support alone is as powerful as any other at any price.
A few options,
Under 50, Life A3i, Liberty 2 Pro
Under 100, Space A40, Life P3
Under 200, Liberty 3 Pro or Liberty 4

On iPhone, what equalizer Orion do you use to test these?
Also, do you verify that the setting you chose stays when switching headphone?
For some reason, the equalizer option I choose “dance” goes back to “off” all the time, basically every day.

according to the Snapdragon Summit last week, Bose will have an update on the Quietcomfort Buds II to add Snapdragon Sound, so I’m assuming Apt X as well

I’ve had my Bose QC Earbuds Gen II for over a month, Bose is definitely back to having “audiophile” sound. (I imagine it’ll only get better with a firmware update on the Qualcomm chipset). Also the ANC is almost freaky how good it is, it’s better than just about any over-ears even Bose’s own. Really love it when the market gets competitive, and the engineers duke it out for the best overall, Bose reclaims that crown IMO.

Surprised the Sony WH-1000XM4s aren’t on here. I got a good Black Friday deal and got them for £159. Sound quality is top tier and noise cancelling is rivalled by very few. Excellent value for money.

My favorite earbuds/go to (first earbud i ever got) was TOZO’s recently because of how cheap and yet still offers great sound at the price of 30$, TOZO-A1 mini and many TOZO options if you look online on Amazon.

The lack of Soundcore products here is surprising. Especially with their performance per dollar outshining most on this list.

November 24, 2022 at 8:15 am
CNET is mostly for the more expensive, big name, major brands, etc. But surprisingly, they added Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS & Earfun Air S as cheaper alternatives to the more expensive earbuds.

@Megatron2013 And Earfun. No offense, but Earfun is a better deal than Soundcore stuff.

November 24, 2022 at 9:29 am
Yeah, sure, I’ve tried them (had them in several colors). And they’re from 2021, not 2022. And they’re not quite as great as some people say 😉 Anker went with new stem design for Liberty 4.

November 23, 2022 at 7:34 am
JBLs are pretty good 👍🏽 imo
Rolins
November 23, 2022 at 9:23 am
The JBL Live Pro 2 are really very very complete, the Earfun Air S 🔥 with better microphones than all the earbuds in this video.
The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are good but just like the Airpods Pro 2 only have interests in their respective ecosystems.
The Pixel Buds Pro meh!
The Bose, just the best in ANC but nothing else really transcendent and lacks too many basic features present in even $50 earbuds today
The Sennheisers, not really much to complain about, they are good in all areas, maybe not the best but easily top 3 in most areas.
The Linkbuds S, good but not really the best in their price range where there are Soundcore Liberty Air 3 Pro, JBL Live Pro 2, 1MORE and others.
On the other hand, it’s really surprising not to see Soundcore mentioned in this video.
But above all, no non-Apple earbuds over $100 should afford not to have ADAPTIVE APTX or LDAC, and especially not to have Google Fast Pair and real multipoint.

Danner Banks
November 23, 2022 at 5:21 pm
I feel like the atypical earbuds shopper – I want a case that connects to my keychain, I want the case to be small, and I want multipoint. ANC and wireless charging, while nice (based on my experience with expensive earbuds in the past) aren’t as important for me. As a result, I’m using the Skullcandy Dimes. And I’ve decided for anything with a headphone jack (Meta Quest 2, switch, fire tablet, Xbox series controller) I’m just going to use wired headphones. I love your Earfun recommendation though, $60 for multipoint functionality is great.
Andrew Kimani
November 23, 2022 at 7:30 pm
The fact that this list doesn’t include any Soundcore or Jabra earbud disqualifies it, but somehow JBL makes it🤔

Way better than you can ever imagine. The quality of sound on Sony is insane.
Tom Mangan
November 23, 2022 at 11:29 pm
While sound quality is important, it seems the manufacturers forgot about functionality. AirPods 2 had the best functionality in that you could simply tap the side of your head near the earbud to move forward or backward in your playlist. This is particularly important to those who live in colder climate who routinely wear hats and gloves. Further, those who use them while running or working out appreciate the ability to tap and go rather than having to press or squeeze the stem. Now, users have to squeeze the stem or tap directly on the earbud, which simply isn’t practical while wearing thick gloves and/or a hat. And there is always the danger of having the earbud fall out while trying to tap/squeeze it while running or working out. Sure, users can say, Hey, Siri…” and all that, but nobody around you wants to hear you say that over and over while you scroll through your playlist or repeat a tune a few times.

I do like that feature but the LG Tone buds aren’t quite top-notch for what they cost. Seem to be getting better though.
Nick S
November 24, 2022 at 7:48 am
Linkbuds S are hard to fault and a great default pair of buds for all occasion and a great deal under 150 – I like that I can lay my head flat on a pillow or against something and they arent uncomofortable in my ear. Jabra Elite 85ts werent mentioned but I think they have amazing sound with their larger drivers and accurate, punchy bass. Finally, for working out Ive always loved the Jabra 75t (I think the older Jabra 75t and 85t are better than the newer Jabra offerings) but with the 75t’s out of production, the new king of workout buds has to be the Beats Pro Fit. Great lockdown/stable fit and bright yet punchy sound which is great for Hip-Hop, Rock or EDM. Im most excited to try the new Bose.

I’m surprised to find Soundpeats Air 3 Deluxe HS and Earfun Air S in the CNET recommendation of 2022. CNET should do more videos on the low cost budget earbuds.
