Im very impressed by how well structured and profesional this video is.
Thanks a lot!
I agree
Same here!

Love your ranking system! It really helps viewers figure out what features they want to prioritize.
That's why I do it! Glad I could help 😊
Is every item equally important for the overall ranking?
note that they just help, and according to my ears
im listening to premier pro atm and i can say it sounds more 'exciting' and 'highend' than rests above
absolutely love how meticulous and structured this comparison video is. thank you so much, just placed an order for the soundcore headphones
I appreciate it, thank you! 🙏🏼
WOW!
I haven't seen such a well-structured technology video in a long time...
Thanks a lot!
Wow, the quality and clarity of this video is exceptional. You perfectly laid everything out in a very easy to understand way, thank you for the effort you put into this video! I just bought the 1MORE Sonoflow, excited to try it out
Thank you very much - that's exactly what I aim for!
How's the frequency curve approximately.
Is it too V-shaped
This video is so detailed. I can't even imagine the amount of work that went into making this video. Great job indeed.
I really appreciate it, thank you 🙌🏼
I own both 1more sonoflow and w820nb plus and I definitely agree with you in the sound quality and ANC department. Finally found someone with similar sound preference. Please do more budget sound gears - maybe edifier bookshelf speakers? Great production quality well presented video!
Thanks a lot! How about this for an Edifier bookshelf speaker review 👉🏼 th-cam.com/video/dJikoUW2D08/w-d-xo.html
Cual de los dos se escucha mejor ?
Estoy entre estos dos ?
What's the better one in those?
Which has the best call quality is noisy environment
Great video, really well presented and easy to follow, I ended up going with the 1more Sonoflow in Black Friday sales - totally impressed for the price for my first pair of 'real' headphones 😎 Feel like when weighing everything up the 1MORE is superb value and incredibly comfortable.
Thanks a lot!
very useful! helped a lot! Thank you for such valuable programme!
A very well structured and concise video facilitating a much easier buying choice Thanks
Your channel perhaps is the most objective tech review channel out there! Thank you for making such a concise and on point description of your experience with the devices you review. It really helps me better understand how to experience each device without even trying it, and eventually make a better educated purchase decision.
Couldn't ask for better feedback really - thank you very much!
great comparision at the end with a table that shows all of them. thanks!
Thanks a lot!
I just wanna say thanks for such an in-depth review over these headphones. I've been considering getting a pair of over-head headphones recently and this has really helped me with looking for the right pair. Much appreciated!
Thanks a lot for watching!
Thank you! This was the perfect video to help me decide between the three I had already narrowed down to 😂
Your video is extremely comprehensive! Well done!
Glad I could help!
You have the best channel on TH-cam regarding audio hardware. Hands down man, you are very smart, structured-thinking and overall amazing video creator!
After the week i've had, that's awesome to hear! Thank you 👊🏼
Thank you very much for the video!🙏🏻 Its the best review I saw so far
Ah that's great to hear!
i just got the sony, and will change to sound core thanks to you.. would have never even heard of it.
i only hope the sound leakage isnt a big deal
such a well structured and informative vid. so helpful. well done.
Thank you so much!
Great video Im thinking on buying those space one and this video helped me a lot thanks.
Thank you 🙌🏼
No bass
I prefer the edifier for android devices. With LDAC and tons of customization options in some apps and you also can tweak those options in the developer settings which boost the volume and audio quality by a significant amount.
Note: For people with DolbyAtmos on their phone i recommend turning it off, it interfere with the ANC and the sound quality.
got the soundcore space one and absolutely loving it, very comfortable, can wear it for long hours and the ANC is also very good
is it too bass heavy ? hows the soundstage?
U can make in the app in the eq presets for your taste
@@lavatr8322u can make your eq setup by your taste
Fantastic comparison video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks a lot!
Thanks so much! This is gold for working out what I need
You're welcome!
Thank you so much for this very comprehensive review. You deserve all the praises 👏🏽
I really appreciate it, thank you!
Great video, first one ive seen of yours but great job, definitely going to watch more
Glad to hear it!
Great comparison! wish i saw this vid before I bought the Sennheiser 350bt great sound & learned that my ear is mid to big size lol after couple of hours gets hot and the microphone is horrible, people can hear everything around me except myself especially in noisy environment and one thing i didn't expect at a weight of ~230 (advertised) found that when I leave it around my neck for some time while walking causes neck pain, still love how it sounds n wish its driver bigger with same clarity but more oomf.
hope this helps someone and thanks again! Cheers
That's useful to know, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for useful info! Does it work well in a bit noisy places? And how long the headphone can last btw, cuz i really hope it can last longer than a year for this price range😅
I saw this video showed up on my feed and I am looking for a pair of decent-quality headphones that's not going to burn through my life's savings. I'm extremely impressed with your video quality, at first I was saying to myself it would be nice if he could have each category listed out and then I could compare which one I want and which one I don't, but then you have them out one by one and even compare each for us. That's the quality we're looking for in a tech review video. Thank you, you've helped me make my decision a lot easier.
That’s great to hear. I’m here to help people!
I buy the Soundcore Space One and it would arrive tomorrow! thank you so much for making this video and the amazing quality of it, I love it!
Enjoy them!
Que buen video, detallista donde tiene que ser y simple cuando es requerido, dejando una comparativa muy clara así como una preferencia clara luego de todos los puntos de vista. Gracias por la recomendación, saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Thank you! Hello from the UK 👋🏼
Such a great overview. And THANK YOU for including sound leakage. It's such an important factor to consider for a lot of people when buying headphones but the majority of reviewers tend to just ignore it entirely. This was so helpful!
Glad I could help, thanks for watching!
Great review, just purchased your number 1 choice after watching, thanks!
Thank you, I hope you like them!
Great review. Really good and informative. Definitely a subscriber now.
Thank you so much! Welcome 👊🏼
This review is so spotless and really informative, concise but so helpful, THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad to hear it!
Just want I needed to in regards to level of information, really sold on the Space one's!
Adam, thanks for another excellent review. Also thanks for letting us meet your pooch😁 Very cute. Also much appreciate your Space One vs Q45 addendum. Man, you are my favorite tech reviewer.
It's been a while since Lilly was on the channel, so I thought i'd let her briefly say hi 😄 I really appreciate the support, thank you!
I think the space one are the best pair you can have on this list if you have all the features the anc is not bad at all and my pair I had had no bugs at all
Soundcore space Q45 are better than space one
@@BlueEndSK yes , but there's more features on the space one ...I wish they make one with the quality of the space q45 by the features of the one
@@isabellefortin7561 my Q45 will arrive in 3 days, I am so excited, but I never knew about the space one having more features.... idk now
I've got the sound core space ones and they are fantastic 100% recommend
What are your thoughts after 6 months ?
Also how is their service?
@@vedanshubansal116 don't recommend, the sound quality is AWFUL. I've had them for 3 days now. I'm praying for a refund lol. 90% of youtube reviews for them are sponsored, check out Flossy carter's review, it's the only legit one i found.
I do own the sonoflow and after a couple of months the sound got better imo. Also I tend to like a warmer/bass profile headphone, so for me they are great.
I was getting a headache about researching what headphones to buy. Especially that these will be my first ever wireless headphones. Your video is so professional and so well structured it made decision 1000 times easier. Thank you I really appreciate it.
Thanks a lot 👊🏼
Hello, which one do you end up getting and what are the considerations?
@@sherine9033 soundcore one. They are great.
which one you picked ?
An amazing review video. Love the format.
Thank you!
Best review of all internet I found. Thank you very much. This will be decisive for me to choose my headphones.
Wow, thank you so much! 🙌🏼
Had to subscribe after watching this video. Class comparison 👏🏾
👊🏼
Thank you appreciate your time you took for this review!
Thank you for watching it!
Thanks for this review it was awesome i was stuck on a good pair of over ear headphones as I’ve always only ever had in ear headphones and usually just apple but one hard stomp or a knock and those things can come flying out then you’re off to buy another pair, I’ve always been happy with their ANC so I’m hoping the edifier comes close
After watching your review I decided to go for them and being better then the 1more they where cheaper on Amazon so I third I’d go for them!
Thanks I’ve subbed now I’m onto another of your videos😂
Awesome, glad to hear it!
was looking for something exactly like this. after watching some other videos comparing the space one with the space q45 I'll buy the space one now. hopefully gonna arrive in a few and gonna be good.
Amazing review! Really helpful
Thank you 🙌
thanks that really helped me because i was decicing between the 1 more sonoflow and the soundcore space ones il go for the soundcore headphones
Glad I could help!
Did you get them? Are they good?
Best review video so far. Information is on point. Thanks
👊🏼
Subscribed.
Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you!
Hey man awesome review very detailed, you got a new subscriber
Thank you 👊🏼
wow. great review, thank you!
Thanks a lot!
As per usual, amazing informative video! now im waiting for the review on the Jabra Elite 10 / Elite 8
I'm literally wearing the Elite 10 right now doing the battery testing 😅 Aiming to squeeze in the full review (vs Elite 8 Active) before the 22nd when the new iPhones arrive. Busy times!
*Edit: Sorry, I was so surprised by the coincidence of your comment that I didn't even say 'thank you'. I'm sorry, and thanks a lot!
That ranking at the end really sealed the deal, made this whole video worth it rather than the cop out "it depends" you always see from reviews!
I appreciate it, thank you!
I'm really glad you put on a Comfort ranking, Many tech youtubers tends to ignore & skip that, which makes me not want to trust Tech youtubers in general anymore
But this have set up my expectations regarding that, this is a well thought & put video that makes it easier for me to decide on my budget headphones, and most likely i am going for the soundcore, it seems to be the best design with best comfort & quality on it's budget, and seen many people compliment it so much for those aspects
Thanks. I would say that comfort can be subjective - everyone has a different experience, so that may be why reviewers omit comfort in their videos. I've tried to include as much helpful info as I can though!
Very good channel! Which of them would you say is the most comfortable (headband and headphones). Thanks!
So helpful, thank you so much :) Thanks for all the effort you put in reviewing these headphones :)
Glad to hear it!
Do you have the Sony wh-xb910n? If you do is there a noticeable difference between them and the Sony wh-ch720n in terms of sound leakage? Having low sound leakage is important to me. Great video btw
Thank you! So there is a difference and the XB910N leak a little bit more - but I actually think it’s because of the sound difference. The more bass-heavy sound is easier to hear, so maybe if you tuned the headphones to have the same sound then the leakage would be similar? It’s not a huge difference either way
Hello! Nice quality from your video, thank you. I have doubts between sound core Q45 and the soundcore space one. Which one would you prefer without taking acount into the diference of price?
2 people asked this in 1 minute! Ok i'm gonna write a little review post on the community tab about this, it'll be up tonight and i'll message back once it goes live!
Forgot to say earlier: thank you! Also, the post is now live on the community tab. But if you still have questions then please ask and i'll do my best to answer 👍🏼
absolutely excellent video! congrats
Thank you so much!
Hi thanks for the reviews. I'm new to the channel and thought this was extremely well done.
I tried wireless but was not happy with the sound. I didn't want to spend a fortune and got soundcore Q 45's. I sold them.. I use IEM's when I'm out as the sound is excellent and they are so portable.
Thank you very much! Welcome to the channel 👋
This is a great review video.. subscribed your channel. 😊
Thank you! Welcome to the team 👊🏼
I got a set of renewed Sennheiser HD450BTs for $99 and added a set of aftermarket earcups. They now sit on my ears like a cloud. I'm not afraid of renewed products because they're tested out and I usually don't have any problems. you'd have to spend about twice as much to get anything noticably better.
This video really helped me get my first budget 🎧 headphone haha
I had to buy one quickly for an event but the budget is quite tight.
Glad I could help!
I've had a similar version same bill design Sennheiser 450 Bt special edition with noise cancellation. I have big ears big head no issue with the cups or pads the Comfort was okay extremely heavy user use them for hours even fell asleep in them a couple of times great for earmuffs for the winter time works well in -35.40 Celsius. Yes it does get very hot you are very correct about that and the controls where pretty annoying upgraded to the Sennheiser momentum 4 night and day far more Superior. Really great in-depth video. PS in my old Sennheiser BT 450 special edition I fried the ANC the second year in when snow showing LOL the sweat from my ear shorted out the ANC so I just turned it off and used passive mode😂
Very concise, on-point review, love it!
Thanks!
Your reviews are always extremely well done. Your ranking system is fantastic as well. Thank you.
Thank you 👊🏼
I've been daily driving (literally using it almost every day) the *Sennhier HD350BT* as my primary headphones for over 3 years now (I don't use any other earphone/headphones), if anyone has any doubts regarding it, feel free to ask me anything :).
Nice 👍🏼
I read a comment above saying it gets heated quickly and the microphone doesn't work that well and sound leaks alot
@@cyclops9202 i spent the entire lockdown wearing these for online meetings and lectures. No one really complained about my mic quality and I could hear everyone perfectly well. I still use em for long calls and I've not really had issues. The "side tone" feature is a bit unique, you can hear yourself and your surroundings too. Could get annoying if you're in a loud environment as environmental noises will come through. It was kinda a useful feature for me as it helped me understand if i needed to move/shift I was having a conversation with someone as I know how i sound to them(if that makes sense). As for the ear cups, they used to feel really warm on the ears after an hour of use and after 2 hours I would start feeling uncomfortable. However the pleather that covers the cushions wore off in a year-ish worth of heavy use and now they are much more comfortable. The sound leaks more now too, but only at louder volumes. However, more than sound leakage, it's the overall volume that might be a problem for some. For other headphones I'm usually around the 50-60% level of volume for normal use and 70-80% if I want the sound to feel loud, on the Sennheisers, 60-70% feels normal and 80-90 starts feeling loud-ish. If you're used to listening to stuff at lower volumes, then the Sennheiser will not cause any issues. I especially noticed this when I travelled on a train and I could hear the people around me even though the volume was at 100% volume.
Do they get loud though? Not loud enough, but LOUD lol
@@LooneyToon8 100% volume is loud, but not an uncomfortable loud.
Awesome video, awesome comparison.
Thank you 🙏🏼
After watching how detailed yet concise this video was, I had to subscribe.
Love to hear it 👊🏼
Extremely well done 👍
Thank you!
Loved the design of 'sound-core space one' but it is for $250+ here in India, So i will go for sony CH 720n that will cost me around 95$. Thanks for the info. Nice video.
Thanks!
Me too. After watching this video i decided to buy soundcore but too expensive in India, so going for Sony 720n. Comfort is my first priority, hope this headphones reaches my expectations. Fingers crossed 🤞.
Nope It's 9,000/- on Amazon
@@WINayKumR ya now it's 9000 but in sale i bought it for 7000 using bank offer and discount.
@@saikiranpoluri7457how is the Sony ?
Is the sound too V-shaped? Does it come with a Carry case
Great Video, you really helped me. I want to ask, how extreme the sound leaking on the Soundcore Headphones are.
Not terrible. Someone close by will be able to hear your music at around 40/50% volume. That's the same for most headphones though
hi there, great video, very in-depth and somehow concise as well, but i have shortlisted to buying either the soundcore space q45s' (they are 98 pounds on offer so just a tenner more for these)or the space ones, would you recommend one over the other for the price?
Check out the latest post on my community tab. Has a full breakdown of all the differences
Great video! Got yourself a new subscriber!
Thank you, welcome to the team! 👊🏼
thank you for the review, now i know which headphone I should buy :3
Thanks for watching!
perfect, perfect down to the last minute detail
Thank you 🙌🏼
I own Sennheiser 4.40BT for 5 years now. They are basically identical to 350BT, tho they have AUX and MicroUSB instead of Type C. What I love the most about them is that they are built like a tank. They've fallen multiple times on a concrete, sometimes at speed and only have some scratches on them. Battery life is solid. They fit me well, but in the summer they tend to be on a warmer side. Definitely try them on as headband might be a bit hard for some. Oh yeah, the sound quality is really good. If 350s are like that then I highly recommend them.
wait you can what to them XD
same reason I use android I have dropped my Galaxy S10+ at least 40 times even into steel ridges
Thank u for this vid, subsribed
🙌🏼
Nicely done!! 😊
Thanks a lot!
I decided with the sonoflow based on the extra battery life and there was a discount code, wish me luck
Hi Adam, I just tried the Space One and they make my ears hurt. I have used many other headphones without any similar problems. Is there anything you know about the Space One that would make them susceptible to causing ear pain?
Also, in your excellent review, you mentioned some glitches in the first pair you received. If you don't mind, would you please describe the glitches you encountered with your first pair.
Thanks!
Ah i'm sorry to hear that. Nothing comes to mind about why this would be without you being more specific. For instance, are the ear cups pressing on your ears?
So one of the worst glitches was the wearing detection calibration. You had to calibrate the setting first by laying them down on a desk and then putting them on (they didn't register they were on the desk, so wearing detection didn't work). But when the ear cups were brought closer together, they would audibly 'screech' (yes, seriously, I have a video of it).
Also cupping the ear cup for easy chat would activate it, but it would never turn off again when you let go. You had to power the headphones off and on again. There were a couple of other things too but they were definitely not ready to pass QA checks
@@insidetechltd Thanks for your response. The earcups are not pressing my ears. They fit comfortably. What I am having is inner ear pain when the ANC is on. I have used many headphones but I have never experienced this. I checked out another reviewer (link below starting at 2:45) and they described a similar problem.
th-cam.com/video/M2oipNghlxw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=KZGMBw7jTycmh4AU
Ah ok I understand this problem. It affects people to different extents and I didn't personally experience it - it's a difficult thing to point out unless you actually have it yourself. The only solutions are to either have ANC on a lower setting (if Adaptive is still giving you trouble) or otherwise you might just be better off with a different pair of headphones - sorry!
thanks for the video, I want to ask you, if you had to buy music headphones with 150 euros, what would you get?
Awesome video - great work :)
Thank you 🙌🏼
A very useful and informative video.
Thank you very much!
THANK YOU 🙏 ❤
This dude did an entire analysis. Amazing video.
Thank you 💚
Your videos are top notch quality bro! I also have a question -would you reccomend these Space Ones over Life Q35? They are similar price range. I now wondering which should I buy... The new ones looks obviously better, all these new features as well but Q35 had hard shell case so it looks much premium. Maybe you can help me in my purchase?
Buy the Space One
Space One - the 35's premium case isn't enough to justify everything else that's better about Space One
Great Video. I'm ready to pull the trigger on the Soundcore Space One, but i have a question maybe you can answer. They say it can connect with AUX, i assume that is the 3.5mm cord. Can this method be used if the battery was dead?
Thank you! Yes you can. That’s what “passive playback” is so I can confirm this works with space one 👍🏼
Hi! what a nice and very informative review.
Just a question, If you're gonna compare the Edifier w820nb in terms of the sound quality only, what is the ranking?
The edifier w820nb plus is a little bit pricey for my budget and honestly, I'm just looking for a wired and wireless headphone that is good for listening to music. Do you have any recommendations?
Thank you! I don’t think there’s a huge difference overall. The LDAC codec doesn’t make as much difference as some audiophiles may try to claim. The drivers and tuning is most important and they’re really close. If you find a deal on the 820NB and like them…go for it!
the fact that you mentioned Taylors version just gained you a new subscriber
I might be one of those people who has been listening on repeat lately 😅
Thanks for making this video. This actually makes it easier for me to choose what budget headphone to buy next(I'm choosing Soundcore Space One btw).
You're welcome!
Hi! I was thinking to get Edifier W820NB. I'm a student so my budget is tight and i want them for watching videos etc. Do u think it will be enough? Thank you for the video btw.
Yes, a great option on a budget!
Please do a earbuds ranking and recommendation under 30 to 25 dollars
Like Qcy, soundpeats , soundcore ,etc
We're just coming into iPhone season so i'm super busy right now - but it's a cool topic so i'll keep this in mind for the future
Nice review video...
Please review the Bose QC Ultra headphones...
Thank you...
Thank you! I'll be covering those headphones on the channel soon
Thanks for amazing video!! I wanna ask if all i care about is the sound quality and the durability, is the Sennheiser one the best choice😅?
Thanks! Yes I would say that is the best choice for those things 👍🏼
@@insidetechltd thank you so much!!!!
Very good quality video.Thx.
Thank you!
Great video very helpful
Thanks!
when i had my sony wh 1000mh3 i loved thre transprancy hand over the cup thing since they broke i have had soundcore q10 and i have q20 but today they stopped taking charge so i just ordered the space ones in blue as has all i need
I hope you like them!
Part of why this was a great review was the great choice of music 😂 From one Paramore fan to another!
Thank you! Love Paramore ❤️
the Sennheiser's HD 450BT's are 129 ( Canadian ) 95 ( USD ) for black friday....i just need a set of headphones for watching netflix and my ipad for movies and utube....the noise cancellation and calls are not important but good sound is ....would these be a good buy ?....cheers from Canada
