Nothing Ear 2 Wireless Earbuds Active Noise Cancellation to 40 db, Bluetooth 5.3 in with Wireless Charging,Dual Connection 36H Playtime IP54 Waterproof Earphones for iPhone & Android, White

I currently have Jabra 75T but my everyday buds are the Pixel Buds Pro. My phone is a Pixel 7 Pro. The Nothings 2 connect faster than either of them. I spend more time on the phone and listening to talk entertainment. Music sounds as good or better than the others. But I don't use them for music. In fact I never have both buds in at the same time, except mowing the lawn.The case is outstanding. Easier to get them in and out. Wireless charging with a nice bright led light as an indicator. No more waiting to see if they are charging. So many smart features. Call quality is better than the PBuds. I sound clearer and less muffeled and I can hear the other caller clearer and not so muffeled. This is AFTER I ran the personal hearing test and choose the best quality for phone calls.The buttons on the stem remind me of the Apple Air Pods. The PBuds and Jabra are impossible to shove back into your ear canal without changing some random setting or disconnecting your call! These do not.There's a big difference in sticking buds in your ears and vegging out, vs talking or chewing. When you talk or eat it changes your ear canal. But will you find ONE reviewer test any product while talking for long periods? No. I've never found one. The Nothing Ear 2 does the best job on this by a long distance.Overall these are the best buds I've ever had and I've had many. Including some that cost over $200. For $125, these are a no brainer folks. Buy them now. You will love them.Now for the bad. Battery life. It's poor at best. Very frustrating because these things are pretty big. You think they could have shoved a bigger battery in them. They claim 4 hours but I haven't gotten much over 3.5 in a combination of talking and listening. What's saves them is that when one bud goes out, I can swap them out with normally no hesitation and no missed words. Impressive.I hope they can get to a respectable 6 hour battery life on the next version. Everything else should not be tinkered with.

Great set of wireless headphones. If you're cross-shopping these with other brands, I highly recommend these. The case and earbuds are gorgeous, the sound quality is excellent, and the battery life is commendably long enough to be a solid performer in my lineup of headphones. I reach for these more than I do any others and they are now part of my everyday carry items.If I have one nit to pick, it's with the noise cancellation, but it's extremely minor IMO and not worth knocking a star off since it's not important to me. Basically the noise cancellation just isn't on par with other brands, but that is not as critical a feature for my use case. In the gym, I can enable it on the Ear2 buds and it drowns out the gym music and ambient noise just enough. Other buds I've tried do a better job because of the silicone seal being more robust/tighter fit.They do have a tendency to fall out during more rigorous activity when sweating hard, but not any worse than others I've used - again, not worth knocking off a point since the audio quality is so good.Summary: Worth the price, great audio, great looks, easy to set up, ANC is acceptable.

These first hit my radar when Mark Cuban talked about how much he loved using them for listening to music. And that dude can buy anything.I decided to check them out and was pleasantly surprised by how reasonably priced they were. I've been buying cheap earbuds for years and decided to treat myself.They sound great. Highs are crisp, and lows are deep. The noise canceling is on point, and there is a fun little sound effect when switching between modes. They look stylish and modern without sticking out too far from my head. I'm not a fan of bulky-looking earbuds, and these got it right. Snug and comfortable. The microphone quality is very good, too. I called my daughter living overseas, and she said it sounded like I was in the room with her. The battery life exceeded the specs, which was a nice surprise.There are a couple of things I don't like. Pairing them with a new device is not straightforward. I have to do it while they are still in the case, which is different and weird. The case has to be open, too, which doesn't make a lot of sense. There's also a scratching noise at times when I'm wearing a beanie or have my hood up. I don't know if it's the microphone or the noise-canceling components, but when something rubs against them, you know immediately.I'm still happy with them overall and recommend giving them a shot if you want to upgrade your earbud game.

I tried literally all of the top of the line options from big brands in earbuds and decided on these. They are actually comfortable and feel "light" in the ear. Connectivity is smooth and consistent. Music quality is great - still not as good as over-ear headphones, but as good as other high quality earbuds. Noise cancelling is stellar at low frequency (fans, general movement) but not a bit lacking at high frequency (dish clatters). Mic quality for people I'm talking to is good but not great. That was a huge factor for me and the results passed my test, though nothing as good as the audio of just talking on the phone like normal. Controls are intuitive and customizable. I've only had them six months so I can't attest to longevity.
