1MORE Active Noise Cancelling Wireless Earbuds, Dual Driver ANC Pro Bluetooth Wireless Earphones, Wind Noise Resistance, 20H Playtime, IPX5 Waterproof, for Clearly Phone Calls, Home Office,Sports

After a couple of rather unsatisfactory tries of true wireless earbuds I decided to get me a set of these. What can I say, I don't regret to have given them a chance.They arrive in a sizeable box, unfortunately with quite a lot of plastic used to hold the headphones in place as well as the accessories. Those include three additional pairs of ear tips in various sizes (the fourth fitted to the earbuds), a charging cable and an audio cable to use the headphones wired, etc. The neckband is flexible and nice to the touch, with all the controls on one side. The controls are intuitive and easy to use, even with my large hands/fingers. The whole assembly is light-weight and can be worn the whole day without feeling it.As promised they charge very quickly. A charge gives me approximately the 16 hours of use with ANC on. The noise cancelling for in-ear headphones amazed me the first time I tried them, I didn’t expect it to be this effective. I can’t say how they compare to the market leading over-ear headphones but the ANC works a treat for me. The sound is to my liking, not too bass heavy but well balanced, and they are very loud if one chooses to crank them up.Now, I have rather nastily noisy neighbours, so I had planned to use them under some ear defenders. As the earbuds are small and light-weight and the cables very thin, I can wear them under the ear defenders all day long. And with the ANC on mid level I don’t hear anything, not even myself walking on creaking floorboards! Blissful silence. As the controls are not on the earbuds but the neckband they are always accessible.You can download the app as well. Well, the app is nothing to shout about. It works, but the features are limited to say the least. It allows you to update firmware and change the ANC level or wind noise reduction and it gives access to the quick guide. I suppose the best feature is the Smart Burn-In, but that is for the most patient user. A non-stop burn-in would take approximately 12 hours - and that is not recommended.I really love these headphones and didn’t regret spending my money on them. They work very well for me and I recommend to at least give them a try.

I purchased these with medium expectations and whilst lacking in some areas, found them to be on the whole a fairly good set of earphonesHighlights:Active noise cancellingGood overall sound qualityLightweight earbudsExcellent battery lifeBad points:Poor noise isolation meaning the ANC has to work harderNo talk-through /Pass-through modeWide oval ear piece: Not good for small or oddly shaped ear canals for fitment/comfort.No equaliser/tone adjustments.No AptXNo carry caseIn more depth:This is in comparison to a wide range of branded buds and phones from AKG to Sony that I've owned over the years, including over-ear ANC phones.Noise Cancelling works quite well: I use a ride on lawn tractor and these work great; the engine could blowup and I wouldn't hear it! However some noises it doesn't cancel which is a bit weird; Like my dog panting and rustling plastic bags!The wind noise reduction mode I didn't think was much improvement over the normal ANC, and found it detracted from the sound quality of the music too much making the bass a bit thin and hollow.Generally if your listening to audio they are fine, but if you want just peace and quiet in a busy area you'll find these don't isolate and cancel well enough as well as producing a little background hiss.Noise isolation is poor. A cheap £25 pair of snugly fitting Sony wired earbuds will seal and isolate outside noise far far better than these. This is very disappointing as it means you really do need the ANC active and of course it has to work harder.No talk through /pass-through mode: Other ANC headphones I've used had a mode that acted like a intercom so you could talk to people or listen to tannoy announcements without removing the headphones to hear them. As these are fairly discreet people keep talking to me not realising I can't hear them!Fitment; Now I have oddly shaped ear canals, meaning heavy true-wireless earbuds won't stay put and activities like swallowing, running or bending over (when washing the car) would always make them fall out. Unfortunately these buds were no better and still a struggle, whilst lighter than wireless buds I found the supplied tips too big and slippery so they'd easily work loose. I've since tried foam earbuds and these make them stay put (memory foam 4.5-5.5 mm), but long term wearing comfort suffers: I find the oval shaped ear piece means aftermarket tips are difficult to fit.The neckband is light, barely know it's there, it does fit loosely so can flop about but I just tuck it under my shirt.Sound quality is on par with middle of the road branded wired earbuds. Amazon music cannot be used to judge here as audio via this app will sounds a little lacking. Switching to 256bit AAC ripped from CD and they sound much better, even more so with a lossless format. Obviously these are not Aptx, only A2DP so this a biggest audio quality bottleneck if you are after CD quality. I haven't tried direct from CD as the supplied 3.5mm to USB-C lead was too short to reach my HiFi stack!Another irk is unable to tweek tones/bass/treble anymore than what my iphone can do natively. Which in Amazon music is none! Just as well as the sound is acceptable, but I'd like a touch more bass. Probably more Apple's fault more than anything, but annoying none the less.Battery life: Simply put, even if you used these all day you won't have a issue. I use them over the weekend without charging and by Monday they still have over 50% life showing (via the app).To sum up despite the negatives, at this price point I'm to struggling to find neckband ANC earbuds as good as these. The biggest issue for me is the poor noise isolation and lack of talk-through. So I will be keeping these but will still keep looking out for something that better fits my needs.

I highly rate these earphones having previously used the LG variation as regards neckband headphones. I'm no audiophile but do appreciate quality audio. I draw the line at spending £1000s and I don't use inline DAC amps paired with my mobile phone, though I have considered it when I used to run a wired setup.I own a pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 which are the full size wireless headphones which were widely considered the pinnacle noise cancelling full size headphone till the XM4s came along. The sound quality of the 1More's is I would say not far off the XM3 and honestly I'm hard pressed to tell the difference. I've not tested the noise cancelling outside yet so can't pass judgement in this area.The one bugbear are the tips. They've got large oval shaped bores so good luck finding replacement tips or if you can't get a secure enough fit with the included tips which is currently my problem. Remarkably I'm getting great bass and treble even though the fit could be better.Anyone who complains about the sound on any of these reviews it's because they are getting a poor fit, the better the seal the better the sound. Look at the reviews online and the vast majority rate the 1More's highly, and I can confirm, absolutely love the sound. Hate the fit. My search continues for better ear tips but you might be okay
