    Imagine thinking some of the most prominent audio companies are dupes. Also you compared a bunch of ones that are cheaper than the Airpod. Put them against something of similar cost and you'll realize how crap the Airpods are in comparison.

    I see Soundcore there! They should really be more popular than they are. I really like my Liberty 3 Pros but they don’t stay in my ears well. My Sport X10s are great, and have comfortable ear hooks. Lastly, I have a pair of their noise canceling headphones-the Space Ones. Super comfy, and strong noise cancellation that I love for long flights. The reason she’s hearing things through the music when she tries the, on is probably because the Soundcore app is what controls the transparency and noise canceling functions. The app also has a bunch of equalizer presets depending on what genre of music you’re listening to, and you can create custom equalizers as well. The batteries on all of these are great-barely ran down the battery to 75% on my Space Ones on a 10-hour flight home from Europe recently, and that was with using them the whole time. Overall, I like mine and I’m happy to see them here. Lol, it sounds like it, but I promise I’m not paid by Soundcore! Anker is just my favorite brand of charging cables and accessories for electronics, and I love that they have good quality headphones and earbuds at a reasonable price point.

As consumers we need to be critical and do our due diligence before buying, because otherwise, they'll start selling us (more) crappy products at a high price and people will buy them just because of the logo.
