      Dude, I've tried Raycon earbuds which broke after 2 months, then tried Senheisser earbuds cuz I had some extra money, which also broke in 2 months. They were like $200 btw. Now I have these $36 earbuds that I honestly like more and they have lasted longer. Somehow they charge way faster than those 2, last way longer in battery life, sound pretty much the same, and they even have a little display on the charging case to show you what % charge the case is and if the earbuds are in, how charged up they are. TOZO Tonal Dots are great for being so cheap and honestly as good as these hundred-dollar earbuds. Raycon say they are 'half the price' but that's only because the other 'expensive' brands are like $200+, so Raycon could still be $100 and not be lying. Ngl the Senheisser earbuds were the worst of the 3 while being the most expensive. They lasted for the shortest time and when they broke they had this ear-piercing noise making it pretty much impossible to use them again.

    • @DogsRSweet
      @DogsRSweet 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      They are good, but sometimes they can be kinda crap. I've had one pair that wouldn't work without both earbuds out of the case, so you couldn't listen with only one. I've also had one that would lose sync with itself, so one earbud would play a second or half second after the sound played in the other ear.
      I just bought the newest raycon ones that are supposed to be really durable. Not because I wanted to be like, a status symbol, but because I need an earbud which won't break when I fall asleep wearing them and eventually roll on top of them. Which is why my earbuds usually end up breaking

    • @Sir_Corgerus
      @Sir_Corgerus 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I beg to differ. Hi-Fi headphones (not to confuse the ones using shady marketing to appear good quality) are genuinely better than wireless or cheap wired headphones in terms of sound quality. But to most people it doesn't matter, they use what is cheap or accepted the most in society.
      Good sound can come cheap, the IEM market is a great example of this.

    I use Dacom Bluetooth headphones. They're pretty cheap, have a battery that lasts a whole day, and I can wear them while I'm in the shower. Oh, and they're also pretty hard to lose cause they're connected together by a short wire. I've been using them for about a year and a half now, I think. Maybe a bit less, and so far haven't noticed any problems.

    Apple has the inability to make earbuds and pods the size and shape of the normal human ear. Haven’t used Apple earbuds/pods since the Shuffle (the long stick one) because they hurt my ears if they’re in my ears for more than 10 minutes.
    The only Air Pods I have are ones that I found on the ground in the case, and the previous owners didn’t set up the FindMy thing so I literally cannot give them back, and they’ve been sitting on my desk, out of battery, for a solid 3 months now.

    Honestly I have always stuck to jabra earbuds when it comes to wireless, are they the cheapest.. no, the best sounding, probably not. But unlike apple and many other brands they sell replacement cases and singular ear buds and their support has always been great unlike a certain fruit company which is known for making as difficult to repair or replace parts as possible.
    I have a pair of 65t jabras from 2018 that still work flawlessly to this day despite going through the washing machine more than once.

    Few things: I don’t care about regular AirPods or AirPods Max (this one is stupid, imo).
    But I have not seen any other wireless headphone connect as seemingly to a phone than my AirPods (or the Pro in my case). Mind you, I have had androids for years until last year. I have tried every single Samsung galaxy sinxe S9+, I have had Lg g5/6, the MacLaren one plus, and one of the Huawei and Xaiomi phones. I have also tried multiple wireless/bluetooth earbuds from Sony, LG5, Bose, Sennheiser and Samsung. Nothing beats how seamless the connection is between the AirPods Pro and any of my apple devices (never tried it on my watch). Unless they can release something as good as that, I’ll be stuck with my AirPods.
    I loved the Sony XM4s and XM5s (both headphone and earbuds) and would have loved to keep using it if not for some specific problem: I can’t use it as smoothly as I can with my AirPods. They do have the best ANc and sound (when you get the equalizer set up properly)
    Although, I’ll probably be back to an Android fold next year so it’ll be the Sony ones again

    And I won't lose them, they even come with an optional headphone cable, they are both Bluetooth and NFC so you can use hi-def audio formats ( NFC can transmit more data faster than Bluetooth alone )
    Can even sync to multiple devices

    To be fair, it looked to me like it was a hard battle before other brands could beat the sound quality versus the Airpods/Pro. Now, they've pretty much caught up and even overtook Apple on that end. There's probably never going to be anything actually "revolutionary" with regards to the "TWS" tech though until we reach a breakthrough with minuscule size battery technology. At the end of the day, it's electricity that's driving these mini in-ear speakers.

    Look, I both love and hate my IPhone. It’s made in China and it’s made out of something weak like paper mache or Raditz. Then I have to spend a ridiculous amount to replace it or worse upgrade to the newest model when it breaks. The reason I like it is because it is easy to use. Because of planned obsolescence is why I typically avoid the new phones, hell Moist Critical has a video on the newest IPhone’s durability where the guy testing it was able to crack and crush the shell casing with his bare hands.
