Thanks for sharing your eq settings, it does sound better than the stock tuning. I had been using the Pop preset which sounds better than the default too. I feel these are pretty much on par with the one plus bud 3, really good deal for $50
Been using these for 2+ weeks now, and this video is very accurate. The sound quality is richer than the original Melobuds, but I agree that the tuning isn't as good, which EQing easily helped to fix. The ANC is very impressive as well. That adaptive ANC feature is top tier, and in terms of blocking out noise, they come shockingly close to my Buds FE, which are like 2x the price. The range of features and overall customization at hand, especially when it comes to Transparency Mode was also incredibly impressive, and I loved that these have a sleeping mode. They've been made far less buggy after the firmware updates too. So yeah. These are extremely solid budget earbuds and I personally think they're a better buy than even the Liberty 4 NC. The Melobuds were like a 7.5/10 good, but these are a rock solid 8.5/10, so can confirm that there's a pretty big improvement.
I've been using these for about 3 weeks now and the only real complaint I have is they randomly switch out of ANC on their own every now and then. It'll happen even when I'm sitting, not touching anything, not moving, not tapping any controls or doing anything with the app, and the battery level will be fine. They'll just POOF switch to normal mode. Beyond that annoyance, these are great value for the money.
Almosy bought them just a few hours before you uploaded lol. Ended up getting the engine 4, since I wanted something a bit different, and already have a couple anc ones, including the HT05. Plus it was cheaper.
"QCY just CRUSHED the Budget Earbud Market!" You won't beat this test for a long time :)) You can see more commitment in him. There, the microphone test and comparison were unbeatable. Now you were probably pressed for time. I bought HT05 but had to return it due to a manufacturing defect. Microphones stopped working - no voice recording. Perhaps I will order them again because the first impression was good. The new QCY MeloBuds Pro model seems to be very underdeveloped based on your test and others (QCY MeloBuds Pro - 'best TWS under $40' contender! Review, Binaural ANC & Sound Test & Call Samples). Perhaps further updates will improve the situation, but in my opinion it will be necessary to release another improved version in terms of physical structure and changes in design. Looking at the price/quality ratio, I now prefer HT05. Then I can safely wait for a new revision, e.g. QCY MeloBuds Pro (SE). Thanks for the test(s). I consider them one of the best.
Picky Audio you would do a blind test comparing audio codecs in earbuds. I wonder if there are any differences or if it's just a placebo effect. Greetings from Poland.
I can answer that for him. He would tell you there's a difference but it's not a big one like 2 to 5% depending on the earbuds and the audio source. And there's no difference between LDAC, LHDC or Aptx adaptive. The most important thing is the quality of the driver's and the tuning of them. Hopefully that helps. 💯🙏🇺🇸
Tengo unos qcy t13 me gustaron pero dura poco la batería y no tiene la calidad de audio a la que estoy acostumbrado, estoy pensando seriamente en comprar estos por esa razón, algo con lo que estoy totalmente de acuerdo es con la función para pasar a anc o transparencia sin tener que pasar por anc off sería muy cómodo poder configurar eso, creo que es simplemente un ajuste en la app ojalá lo pueda hacer en el futuro 😅
It's really the product I was waiting for from Qcy (since the Qcy 11s Pro), it's what we call an upgrade 👍🏽 My only apprehension is the quality of the microphones in a phone call in noisy and windy environments, the Ht05 Melobuds are impressive in this area. In fact, beyond the sound 🔊 quality of the Ht05 Melobuds, the real reason why I use them on a daily basis is the quality of the microphones, and if as you say, the quality of the microphones of both earbuds is the same, direct purchase 😅, and at worst, I send them back and keep my Qcy Ht05 or switch to Realme Buds Air 5 Pro which are also very very good in real use. 🙏🏽
Thanks for the review. I got a pair recently and I was wondering, which spinfit tips do you think would work with these? Also, do you think they would improve the sound or the comfort?
Great review man! You say "you would have to spend 3 times as much to get significantly better noise cancellation". I wonder if the Samsung FE, the Soundcore Liberty 4NC and even the Soundcore Space A40 wouldn't actually give you noticeably better ANC for just a little more $?
Unfortunately, they don't. I have both the Buds FE and Melobuds Pro, but they're both surprisingly really close overall in ANC quality, although the Buds FE are still superior because they do block more decibles, but just slightly more. And I also have the Bose QC Ultra's and yeah... he couldn't have said anything more accurate LOL. You really don't need to spend more than 100$ for great ANC imo.
@@kenjid.guzman1170 Thanks for your take man! Wow,Bose Ultra's? My ass hurts (where my wallet sits) just thinking about those! I think I'm looking at the Earfun Air Pro 4 now though, unless Soundpeats comes out with a new one with significantly better ANC than their latest.
Is there a budget earbud that has a physical buttons rather than touch? 😅 I hate when sleeping on my side and the bud suddenly triggers the touch control.
If you are on Samsung's "closystem", Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, if not, Sony XM5, Huawei Freebuds Pro 3, Soundcore Liberty 4 NC, Qcy Ht08 Melobuds Pro... are better options. 🙏🏽
A little disappointed by this i'm NGL. I have the QCY HT05 and I think they are a very solid bud but was hoping these pros would improve sound quality a little especially in the highs.
Sound is better than Soundcore Liberty 4NC and is great in EQ bass and for me they king on earbuds cheap and do great after last update I have and Earfun air pro 3 and 4 and compared they best for price and sound Earfun air pro 4 is great only when u use EQ only is 2 times more expensive for me QCY is best value sound and ANC and transparency all work great most love sound ANC is strong alot no white hiss like my Liberty 4NC for me they best for money I get mine from AliExpress pay 31£ with case and cleaning pen and make my mind to return my Earfun air pro 4 and Liberty 4 NC only be keep because same buy on deals Earfun air pro 4 for 56£ and Liberty 4 NC for 44£ which not so bad only QCY is king for 30£ better than Soundcore Liberty 4 NC is
Would the Melobuds pro compare well against the OnePlus Buds 3? I'm torn between which pair I should get. 48 dollars is better than 99 though. Regardless of price which one is better and by how much?
@@sivemed3377 yeah its still the same for me, really dumb. FW updates themselves are great though, just got one yesterday which fixed the "on ear detection" hyper sensibility. EDIT: Workaround is first selecting a preset other than Default, clicking customize, Reset, Making changes and only then save.

Mine just arrived... Bass is awesome and loving them for gaming!
I really was waiting for your video to decide whether to buy them or nah, thanks I'm gonna buy them
Thanks GOAT. U are the only person that i will believe in.
I appreciate that 🙌
I’m soo happy you did this review
I was choosing between qcy melobuds and cmf pro 2
Even tho this wasn’t a bud pro 2 comparison i feel the qcy and cmf are very good
Cmf buds Pro 2 are amazing I use them everyday 🔥
Almosy bought them just a few hours before you uploaded lol. Ended up getting the engine 4, since I wanted something a bit different, and already have a couple anc ones, including the HT05. Plus it was cheaper.
Thanks for sharing all the details and your scoring grid. Super detailed reviews as usual!!
Thank you for another awesome comparison, Picky! 👍

Are the QCY Melobuds Pro headphones better than the Liberty 4NC in terms of sound?
Would this be a great upgrade if I came from Moondrop Space Travel?

I'm confused with ranking a little. Are they better with transparency and anc than Liberty 4 NC?

Great review man!
Hi, in your spreadsheet, the formula for cell M31 is incorrect and has a hardcoded value. Love your work!

@@kenjid.guzman1170 Do Qcy melobuds do better sounding than Buds FE, i'm wondering one of them

How does the sound quality compare to the soundpeats engine 4?
Sound is better than Soundcore Liberty 4NC and is great in EQ bass and for me they king on earbuds cheap and do great after last update I have and Earfun air pro 3 and 4 and compared they best for price and sound
Earfun air pro 4 is great only when u use EQ only is 2 times more expensive for me QCY is best value sound and ANC and transparency all work great most love sound ANC is strong alot no white hiss like my Liberty 4NC for me they best for money I get mine from AliExpress pay 31£ with case and cleaning pen and make my mind to return my Earfun air pro 4 and Liberty 4 NC only be keep because same buy on deals Earfun air pro 4 for 56£ and Liberty 4 NC for 44£ which not so bad only QCY is king for 30£ better than Soundcore Liberty 4 NC is
