| Pros | Mind-blowing sound quality, feature-filled app | Insane noise cancellation, wildly immersive, our favorite treble and bass | Comfortable, killer sound quality, great app, rugged construction | Amazing sound, an enticing low price, excellent fit | Top tier active noise cancelling, excellent sound quality, adjustable EQ to fine-tune music experience |
| Cons | ANC is lacking, poor connectivity with iPhones | Not the best fit, shorter battery life, connectivity issues | Not the best noise cancellation, high-end price without all the bells and whistles | Wires are cumbersome, poor noise blocking, no manual equalization | Ear fit is not the best for everyone, no spatial audio, issues with Bluetooth connectivity |
| Bottom Line | Android users and audiophiles will love the epic sound of these pricey buds, just don't expect them to block noise well | Perfect if you want to tune out the world at the touch of the button and get lost in the music | Comfortable, easy-to-use earbuds that deliver an elevated sound experience and better noise cancellation than previous versions | These simple, inexpensive wired earbuds sound amazing, fit comfortably, and the price is right | This provide some of the best sound quality but were ousted by other top-tier buds |
