Exactly. This man is so dedicated to serving viewers with answers. I even saw his replies on Reddit. He deserves more than 13k subscribers. Its a shame that you have to be a paid actor/reviewer for TH-cam to push your videos thus increasing subscribers. TH-cam sucka för this reason smh
After months of deliberation (so many Reddit threads and YT videos haha), I watched your video and finally able to make a decision 😂 Just ordered a Samsung Buds FE! Really love your video, especially the jumping jack test and the audio part. Hope you get more views!
Haha thank you 😊 you'll be really happy with them, I use them and the Buds Pro 3 more than any of the others (I already sold the Realme and Soundcore!). Enjoy!
You are hands down the best tws reviewer out there! And the only one to proper objectively review them especially the ultra cheap ones. We are blessed to have you! In terms of the video, it is a bit underwhelming seeing that no sub 100 tws graphs better than QCY HT05. I moved back to wired(EA500LM) for travel, some months ago, cause of the underwhelming mostly tunings on tws. But looking up to find a cheap tws for my sister today I run in your HT05 graph and I was like WTF 😃 Than I saw the review and it was as good as I thought. So thank you!
Thanks man, appreciate that! Agree about HT05 - the tuning out of the box is pretty much ideal for me too. Glad you're finding the reviews useful, thanks again for the support 🙌
Is it stil good? The reason I am asking this is because I saw some people say that after 3 months the left earbuds stops working and battery healts decreases.
It's painful to see videos with 30 times the views that didn't put even a tenth of effort in the video as you did. Thanks for the awesome comparison! Based on some long-term issues with the Edifier's I've heard about, I'll be picking up the Liberty 4 NCs.
Thank you! You're absolutely doing your bit to change that by watching it and commenting though, which I appreciate a lot 🙌 I'm not sure Edifier is any worse than Soundcore in terms of issues precipitating in the long run, but regardless of vendor you can do some small things to help prolong the lifespan. I use some budget open-ears for running and gym to keep sweat away from the drivers on my main set as much as possible, and clean the battery connectors regularly so they aren't having to fight through sweat and dirt to charge properly. Only little things but they do make a difference. Thanks again for the support! 🙌
This is magnificent work. I've been trying to decide between the Liberty 4NC and the Oneplus Buds 3. You've not only spoke about, but also demonstrated what was most important to me. I really appreciate the time you took to put this together. Well done.

Thanks for the video! Love the one plus buds 3, the ANC and transparency modes aren’t the strongest but definitely capable, sound personalization helps the sound, full customization of controls, you can’t really go wrong- I’ve preferred these from +$200 tws
I agree, just got back from holiday and they were the buds I took with me - they're good enough at everything most of the time, the classic all-rounder! Thanks for watching 👍
Haha sorry bro. I had a load of work commitments and holiday came about too quickly. I think you'll be happy, I liked all of these buds to be honest - TWS has come a long way these last couple of years. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙌
Having tried many of the buds in this list, the realme air buds pro 5 have by far the best sound quality due to dual drivers and excellent tuning. The earfun and soundcore are close but lack the extra dynamic due to single driver setup. They are however, more comfortable in the ear. I am still *getting used to *the realme buds and it shouldn't be that hard to love earbuds. But the compromise you make on sound quality for me is actually relatively significant.
Very good comprehensive review. You should have way more subscribers than you do. I'm not really looking for earbuds right now but I'm waiting for 2 successors to buds I have now. I hope the Oppo X3 and Liberty 4 Pro come out this year.
Thank you, much appreciated! I'm looking forward to those models too. Earfun Air Pro 4 is coming soon as well, which I'm hoping will be a big improvement from the Air Pro 3 😁
i watched your whole video and was surprised to see such a good sound on the samsungs! And also their lack of stems don't seem to affect the call quality as well
Thanks for sticking it out! 😄 I know it's a long one. But I agree, the Samsung are really good. If they had custom EQ I'd probably recommend them above all the others outright, but they sound so good out of the box to me anyway I just leave them as is. They lack all the features and functions of some of the others but if you want a set that just sounds good out of the box and does all the basics really well they are definitely hard to beat. Thanks again! 🙌
Bought realme buds air 5 pro (60€) and, after 4 years using jabra elite 65t (120€) I can say that they are fucking amazing in comparidon, half the price
Another fanastic review mate! Been waiting on this one for a bit, glad to see it out today. Would have liked to see the Earfun Free Pro 3 and the CMF Buds Pro in this group, but you did give us a good comparative group just the same.
Thanks mate! I did toy with the idea of including the Earfun, but the list was getting out of control 😁 I'm already drafting a 'best under $50' and the CMF are almost certainly going to be in that one 👍

Firstly, I would like to compliment the educational and informative videos you share on your TH-cam channel. Where I live, it's hard to find this type of content in my native language. That being said, considering my preference for bass without compromising overall quality, which of the models "Samsung Galaxy Buds FE, SoundPEATS Air4 Pro or Realme Buds Air 5 Pro" would you choose to ensure a superior auditory experience? (I'm asking because I have difficulty understanding more technical English.)
Thank you! For me, the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE sound best if you don't want to start playing with the equalisers. They have a very clean and punchy bass, not too heavy but good enough. Realme have some good bass boost settings in their app, but the sound isn't quite as good as the Samsung overall 👍
Thanks man, appreciate it! I didn't really rate the Air Pro 3 compared to any of these - th-cam.com/video/CL5irceYt6g/w-d-xo.html - Earfun have sorted some of the issues out but they still don't sound as good as any of these models. I've been in touch with Earfun about it and they've been great to be fair - the Air Pro 4 is coming quite soon so hang on for those if anything 👍
FreeBuds Pro 2 are still £139 here in the UK so they missed the cut off on price and age. Nothing Ear (A) came out just as I finished the review, annoyingly, but they will be included in a part 2 along with Earfun Air Pro 4 and hopefully a new release from Soundcore soon too. I will do a separate review on FreeBuds Pro 3 and might even do a best under 150 video at some point
Woah this is gonna be my lunch and learn today :D I had it on in the background at work this morning, sounding like the Realme or OnePlus are the best bang for buck. Are you gonna review the Buds Air 6 Pro?
Your reviews are so so cool! Hahaha! Now I'm torn between the Creative Outlier Pro which to me, is more dependable for me than the Samsung Galaxy Buds... But I heard the Galaxy Buds are great too.... But it's been hit n miss for me with Samsung ... What do you think of Creative? I had an Outlier V3... My friend said I was super clear on calls.
Thank you! There are loads of good points about the Outlier Pro - the battery life is insane, the case is cool and the fit is really good. But, the sound is a bit muddy and needs eq-ing and the ANC is a bit weak. I do like Creative's products generally though - I still use the Aurvana Ace 2 quite regularly - but their ANC tech is a little way behind some of the other brands. Samsung also has it's pros and cons. They try to box you into their infrastructure so some features like multipoint are restricted unless you have a Samsung phone, but their sound tuning is very good and their ANC is generally pretty decent too
@@ReganCipherso question is, should I still get the Outlier Pro? I know their bass is always good usually haha... ANC Abit weak is kinda fine... Based on your test video I'm like it actually is clear enough... :)
@@JC-wj3hx depends on the price I guess! If you can pick it up for a good price, go for it. Personally though, if it was a choice between Outlier Pro and Galaxy Buds FE for the same price, I'd get the Galaxy Buds FE
@@ReganCipher btw .. just out of curiosity... How does the 1more PistonBuds pro q30 do in your testing? Would u say better than Creative? I heard so many good things about 1More... Esp that but being a company from china I have reservations haha
Nice vid bud. It seems like the oneplus buds 3 or the realme air buds 5 pro will fit my needs but I'm getting anxious about the "shallow fit". So what aftermarket eartips fits the best for the oneplus buds 3? I've been seeing about spinfits cp1025 and I wonder if the feaulle h370 will fit on the case.
Thanks mate! Regarding third party tips, I've been using the ones that came with the Soundpeats Air4 Pro on the Realme and they've worked a treat - happy to send you the measurements if you need them. The Feaulle fit, but they don't stay on either of them....I tried and had to fish the tip out of my ear as it stayed in when I removed them! CP1025 will almost certainly fit, but not sure they will improve things especially as they are similar dimensions to the stock OnePlus ones
@@ReganCipher I tried the L4NC at a local store here in my area and the fit is kinda weird, maybe because I was used to wearing IEMs and their fit is really snug and deep but for the stem style tws (at least for the L4NC), it was a bit shallow and i feel like they are going to fall even though they are not.
Galaxy Buds FE because I like the sound without messing with the EQ, OnePlus because they are the most comfortable. But none are outright best, all of them have compromised you just have to work out which compromises you're willing to accept
Which is better in terms of noise cancellation and microphone quality in particular Anker Liberty 4 NC or Nothing ear a? Because I spoke to someone wearing both, I noticed an intermittent and noticeable deterioration in the sound quality of Anker Liberty 4 NC in all noise cancellation modes. Note he was use IPhone and its IOS Doesn't support LDAC.
There is definitely an EQ shift when you use ANC or transparency compared to ANC off. I haven't tried the Nothing (A) yet as it wasn't released when I filmed this, but I will be doing a Part 2 including the Nothing Ear A, Redmi 5 Pro, Earfun Air Pro 4 and some others as soon as I get them 👍
Should I buy the Realme Buds Air 5 Pro or Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 (not the NC version). For now, the price of both is the same in the country I'm in. Can you help me decide which one to buy?
My English is not very good, so I felt the need to write this comment. I would appreciate it if you could tell me which one I should choose. I am currently undecided between the Realme Buds Air 5 Pro and the Anker Soundcore Liberty 4.
ANC is stronger on Liberty 4 NC but for the sound only you can decide. Listen from 30:00 in the video, you don't need to speak or understand English to listen what sounds better to you
I listen to techno (melodic, anjunadeep-style) and I'd say the Buds FE are probably best suited. Did you listen to the binaural samples I included? You can hear that kick drums sound cleaner and punchier then the OnePlus and Realme
Please i would like to know, how would the QCY HT05 compare to these buds sound wise. I learnt that the qcy ht05 sounds so good that it can compared to buds in 100dollar price range so how does it compare to these ones? Thank you.
Not that far off to be honest! The sound is a bit warmer than most of these, but with a bit of EQ'ing you can get it to sound like the Galaxy Buds FE for example, and unless you're listening to complex classical or rock with loads of midbass, then they can punch their weight with all of them. If you start pushing the bass hard you'll notice they don't slam like the NeoBuds Pro 2, which is to be expected as they (and most of these) use dual drivers, but for me they're good enough most of the time. Where something like HT05 falls a bit short of these is the overall experience - the ANC is a bit weaker, the call quality isn't quite as good and you don't get stuff like in ear detection and spatial audio. They feel a bit budget as well. I use the Feaulle ear tips I linked in my review of it and it definitely helps with the comfort and ANC performance though
@ReganCipher From my experience, the Qcy Melobuds Ht05 are better than the Galaxy Buds and other Apple Airpod Pro, Jabra, Sony... when it comes to phone calls, especially in noisy and windy environments. I think if Qcy can release the same, with just the proximity sensor and multi-point, they will have a winner on their hand. But in reality the Realme Buds Air 5 Pro do exactly that and even better 😅
@@ReganCipher I'm one click away to buy the soundpeats. It sounds pretty much like the earfun air pro 3 and the melobuds (after EQ tuning) . Two of them are my favorite buds. Meanwhile, the L4NC stands up on it's own league. Something about Liberty's sound is way different from the Earfun but just love it. I'm done with BBK's products. Must say I enjoyed using the 5 pro but it's just too fatiguing for my ears. Thanks for your review , I boughtthe qcy melobuds
Which one should I go for soundpeats, air 4 pro or soundcore liberty 4 nc. Price im getting on the soundpeats is 50$ and 80$ for the soundcore. Plus, which one would you pick personally considering the price gap. Thankyou
I have both of them, but the only time I prefer the L4 NC is when I take a flight, as the ANC is much stronger. The L4 NC has lots of additional features - like 3D audio, customisable controls, etc, but I don't really use them. The Air4 Pro are more comfortable, the sound is cleaner, and they're slightly better on calls. I'd probably get the Soundpeats and save the cash unless you really need stronger ANC often or really value those added features. The only other thing to say is the Air4 Pro leaks sound more than the L4 NC, in case that's a deal breaker for you
@@YounisMuhammad-vb8tx No problem! L4 NC has more bass, but it's a little muddy sometimes. With most music, it's fine, but if you listen to rock or music styles with lots of guitars, it can sound a bit messy
@@ReganCipher what would you suggest within the same price range, or a little bit more coming from someone using Fiil T1 Lite for the past 3 years looking for clarity, mids, not bloated low, ANC is optional, and yes good EQ. Im torn between the one that mentioned, soundpeat engine 4, Life Dot 3i, and EarFun Free Pro 3 (mostly shape and Aptx), hope for your reply :)
Great work, however an indepth latency/gaming mode comparison is lacking imo in this year and age. Liberty 4NC is almost unusable for fps gaming, while realme Air 5 pro are really close to a wired PC headphone.
Yeah I thought about adding in more depth in the latency section, but when you factor in separate tests for Android, iOS and Windows, it was just a bit too much to squeeze into one video. Might do a separate latency video at some point. Thanks for the feedback!
I have "Realme Buds Air 5 Pro". The headphones are nice, I want to buy a new headset, but I can't decide. "Realme Buds Air 6 Pro" is new, but there seems to be no difference between it and the 5 Pro in terms of sound quality. Is there any difference in terms of sound between the newly released OPPO Enco Air 4 Pro and Realme Air 5 Pro? The drivers that scare me are Realme uses 11mm woofer, 6mm tweeter but OPPO Enco Air 4 Pro has 12.4mm Dynamic One Driver. I think it's the dual driver model Enco X series of the oppo brand? Does a single driver have worse sound quality than a dual driver? My only expectation from the headphones is the sound quality and high volume. Good bass and good treble. Realme Buds Air 6 Pro Realme Buds Air 6 OPPO Enco Air 4 Pro OPPO Enco X3i OPPO Enco X2 (I don't know how Nothing Ear) I'm undecided between these models.
The only Oppo I have tried is the Enco X2. It sounds better than the Realme but it is old now, has quite weak ANC and bad call quality. Also , Oppo are no longer updating their firmware and it doesn't have a custom EQ. Dual drivers doesn't automatically mean better sound than single drivers, but in TWS it is often the case that the dual driver offerings perform well. There's less space in TWS compared to IEM due to battery, so there's not so much opportunity to do clever things with the airflow like you get on single driver IEMs. Personally, I would wait for the Enco X3. There's barely any difference between the the Realme 5 & 6 Pro, so that wouldn't be an upgrade, and I can't speak for the Enco 4 Pro but it doesn't seem like a big enough upgrade on paper. I'll try and get the Oppo 4 Pro in for testing, but a lot of these buds are aimed at the Indian market so getting them in the UK is sometimes difficult or expensive 😭 Realme was bad enough! Thanks for watching! 🙌
You're right, there doesn't seem to be any difference between the Realme air 5 pro and the 6 pro, except for IP55. It's funny :) Oppo Enco x3i appears on the official website, but I think there are no sales yet. i don't know if the x3i and x3 are the same product. Is Realme or oppo louder in terms of high volume db? (i know that loud noise is harmful for ear health, but sometimes loud noise is needed in the gym)
@tanerjames2765 yeah I reviewed the 6 Pro recently here - th-cam.com/video/dVkeCDlT30I/w-d-xo.html - only very small differences. X3i is the one I'm waiting for but I'm wondering if there will be an X3 too..... Let's wait and see. Regarding the volume, they are both measuring roughly the same through my binaural mics connected to my Sony Xperia 1IV
I know 😭 as you might be able to tell from my changing tan and hair throughout the video, it took me a while to make and when the Nothing (a) came out it was just over the $100 limit so I had to draw the line on that one. I'll follow up with a separate review of it and compare to the others, but my experience previously with Nothing has been a bit disappointing anyway so let's see....anyway, thanks for watching!

What do you think of Creative? I had an Outlier V3... My friend said I was super clear on calls.
Thank you! There are loads of good points about the Outlier Pro - the battery life is insane, the case is cool and the fit is really good. But, the sound is a bit muddy and needs eq-ing and the ANC is a bit weak. I do like Creative's products generally though - I still use the Aurvana Ace 2 quite regularly - but their ANC tech is a little way behind some of the other brands.
Samsung also has it's pros and cons. They try to box you into their infrastructure so some features like multipoint are restricted unless you have a Samsung phone, but their sound tuning is very good and their ANC is generally pretty decent too
@@ReganCipherso question is, should I still get the Outlier Pro? I know their bass is always good usually haha... ANC Abit weak is kinda fine... Based on your test video I'm like it actually is clear enough... :)
@@JC-wj3hx depends on the price I guess! If you can pick it up for a good price, go for it. Personally though, if it was a choice between Outlier Pro and Galaxy Buds FE for the same price, I'd get the Galaxy Buds FE
@@ReganCipherit's Abt 70 bucks here in Singapore... N for me, Galaxy buds r problematic n the Samsung phones give me issues usually.
@@ReganCipher btw .. just out of curiosity... How does the 1more PistonBuds pro q30 do in your testing? Would u say better than Creative? I heard so many good things about 1More... Esp that but being a company from china I have reservations haha
HOW IS THIS NOT BLOWING UP???
Haha thanks ... tell your friends! 😁 All of my better performing videos took a while for the algorithm to pick up, annoyingly. Glad you liked it! 🙌
Nice vid bud. It seems like the oneplus buds 3 or the realme air buds 5 pro will fit my needs but I'm getting anxious about the "shallow fit". So what aftermarket eartips fits the best for the oneplus buds 3? I've been seeing about spinfits cp1025 and I wonder if the feaulle h370 will fit on the case.
Thanks mate! Regarding third party tips, I've been using the ones that came with the Soundpeats Air4 Pro on the Realme and they've worked a treat - happy to send you the measurements if you need them. The Feaulle fit, but they don't stay on either of them....I tried and had to fish the tip out of my ear as it stayed in when I removed them!
CP1025 will almost certainly fit, but not sure they will improve things especially as they are similar dimensions to the stock OnePlus ones
@@ReganCipher I tried the L4NC at a local store here in my area and the fit is kinda weird, maybe because I was used to wearing IEMs and their fit is really snug and deep but for the stem style tws (at least for the L4NC), it was a bit shallow and i feel like they are going to fall even though they are not.
which one will u pick out as the overall best for u?
Galaxy Buds FE because I like the sound without messing with the EQ, OnePlus because they are the most comfortable. But none are outright best, all of them have compromised you just have to work out which compromises you're willing to accept
Which is better in terms of noise cancellation and microphone quality in particular Anker Liberty 4 NC or Nothing ear a? Because I spoke to someone wearing both, I noticed an intermittent and noticeable deterioration in the sound quality of Anker Liberty 4 NC in all noise cancellation modes.
Note he was use IPhone and its IOS Doesn't support LDAC.
There is definitely an EQ shift when you use ANC or transparency compared to ANC off. I haven't tried the Nothing (A) yet as it wasn't released when I filmed this, but I will be doing a Part 2 including the Nothing Ear A, Redmi 5 Pro, Earfun Air Pro 4 and some others as soon as I get them 👍
@@ReganCipher OK, good luck 👍
Should I buy the Realme Buds Air 5 Pro or Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 (not the NC version). For now, the price of both is the same in the country I'm in. Can you help me decide which one to buy?
Did you watch the video? I included binaural sound tests so you can decide for yourself which sounds the best
My English is not very good, so I felt the need to write this comment. I would appreciate it if you could tell me which one I should choose. I am currently undecided between the Realme Buds Air 5 Pro and the Anker Soundcore Liberty 4.
ANC is stronger on Liberty 4 NC but for the sound only you can decide. Listen from 30:00 in the video, you don't need to speak or understand English to listen what sounds better to you
@@ReganCipherty
Which would you recommend in terms of sound experience for techno-house music between the realme air 5 pro the OnePlus buds and the Samsung buds fe?
I listen to techno (melodic, anjunadeep-style) and I'd say the Buds FE are probably best suited. Did you listen to the binaural samples I included? You can hear that kick drums sound cleaner and punchier then the OnePlus and Realme
@@ReganCipher exactly! thank u so much man, this actually helped me make up my mind!
Why don't u include enco air 3 pro. I have seen lots or reviews about it and it crashed realme air 5 pro in sound quality.
At the time Enco Air3 was only available in India, that's why I included Enco X2 instead
Please i would like to know, how would the QCY HT05 compare to these buds sound wise.
I learnt that the qcy ht05 sounds so good that it can compared to buds in 100dollar price range so how does it compare to these ones? Thank you.
Not that far off to be honest! The sound is a bit warmer than most of these, but with a bit of EQ'ing you can get it to sound like the Galaxy Buds FE for example, and unless you're listening to complex classical or rock with loads of midbass, then they can punch their weight with all of them. If you start pushing the bass hard you'll notice they don't slam like the NeoBuds Pro 2, which is to be expected as they (and most of these) use dual drivers, but for me they're good enough most of the time.
Where something like HT05 falls a bit short of these is the overall experience - the ANC is a bit weaker, the call quality isn't quite as good and you don't get stuff like in ear detection and spatial audio. They feel a bit budget as well. I use the Feaulle ear tips I linked in my review of it and it definitely helps with the comfort and ANC performance though
@@ReganCipher you are a legend in my book.
I adore you. Please continue creating great content.
@@princecharles3452 thank you! 🙏
@ReganCipher From my experience, the Qcy Melobuds Ht05 are better than the Galaxy Buds and other Apple Airpod Pro, Jabra, Sony... when it comes to phone calls, especially in noisy and windy environments.
I think if Qcy can release the same, with just the proximity sensor and multi-point, they will have a winner on their hand.
But in reality the Realme Buds Air 5 Pro do exactly that and even better 😅
@princecharles3452 Buy the Realme Buds Air 5 Pro
Kinda like the sound of edifier neobuds 2 pro. But dude, my QCY melobuds are still magical to me apart from the weak ANC
Yeah they take some beating! Still a great option and easily the best choice at that price
@@ReganCipher I'm one click away to buy the soundpeats. It sounds pretty much like the earfun air pro 3 and the melobuds (after EQ tuning) . Two of them are my favorite buds. Meanwhile, the L4NC stands up on it's own league. Something about Liberty's sound is way different from the Earfun but just love it. I'm done with BBK's products. Must say I enjoyed using the 5 pro but it's just too fatiguing for my ears. Thanks for your review , I boughtthe qcy melobuds
Which one should I go for soundpeats, air 4 pro or soundcore liberty 4 nc. Price im getting on the soundpeats is 50$ and 80$ for the soundcore. Plus, which one would you pick personally considering the price gap. Thankyou
I have both of them, but the only time I prefer the L4 NC is when I take a flight, as the ANC is much stronger. The L4 NC has lots of additional features - like 3D audio, customisable controls, etc, but I don't really use them. The Air4 Pro are more comfortable, the sound is cleaner, and they're slightly better on calls. I'd probably get the Soundpeats and save the cash unless you really need stronger ANC often or really value those added features. The only other thing to say is the Air4 Pro leaks sound more than the L4 NC, in case that's a deal breaker for you
Thanks a lot. Also, which one has the better bass @ReganCipher
@@YounisMuhammad-vb8tx No problem! L4 NC has more bass, but it's a little muddy sometimes. With most music, it's fine, but if you listen to rock or music styles with lots of guitars, it can sound a bit messy
@@ReganCipher what would you suggest within the same price range, or a little bit more coming from someone using Fiil T1 Lite for the past 3 years looking for clarity, mids, not bloated low, ANC is optional, and yes good EQ. Im torn between the one that mentioned, soundpeat engine 4, Life Dot 3i, and EarFun Free Pro 3 (mostly shape and Aptx), hope for your reply :)
I bet all of them smoke my old Sony xm3 buds. Tws have come a loooong way since 2019.
Great work, however an indepth latency/gaming mode comparison is lacking imo in this year and age.
Liberty 4NC is almost unusable for fps gaming, while realme Air 5 pro are really close to a wired PC headphone.
Yeah I thought about adding in more depth in the latency section, but when you factor in separate tests for Android, iOS and Windows, it was just a bit too much to squeeze into one video. Might do a separate latency video at some point. Thanks for the feedback!
Good video
Could you drop your EQ settings for the oneplus buds 3 heheheh?
I have "Realme Buds Air 5 Pro".
The headphones are nice, I want to buy a new headset, but I can't decide. "Realme Buds Air 6 Pro" is new, but there seems to be no difference between it and the 5 Pro in terms of sound quality.
Is there any difference in terms of sound between the newly released OPPO Enco Air 4 Pro and Realme Air 5 Pro?
The drivers that scare me are Realme uses 11mm woofer, 6mm tweeter but OPPO Enco Air 4 Pro has 12.4mm Dynamic One Driver.
I think it's the dual driver model Enco X series of the oppo brand?
Does a single driver have worse sound quality than a dual driver?
My only expectation from the headphones is the sound quality and high volume. Good bass and good treble.
Realme Buds Air 6 Pro
Realme Buds Air 6
OPPO Enco Air 4 Pro
OPPO Enco X3i
OPPO Enco X2
(I don't know how Nothing Ear)
I'm undecided between these models.
The only Oppo I have tried is the Enco X2. It sounds better than the Realme but it is old now, has quite weak ANC and bad call quality. Also , Oppo are no longer updating their firmware and it doesn't have a custom EQ.
Dual drivers doesn't automatically mean better sound than single drivers, but in TWS it is often the case that the dual driver offerings perform well. There's less space in TWS compared to IEM due to battery, so there's not so much opportunity to do clever things with the airflow like you get on single driver IEMs.
Personally, I would wait for the Enco X3. There's barely any difference between the the Realme 5 & 6 Pro, so that wouldn't be an upgrade, and I can't speak for the Enco 4 Pro but it doesn't seem like a big enough upgrade on paper.
I'll try and get the Oppo 4 Pro in for testing, but a lot of these buds are aimed at the Indian market so getting them in the UK is sometimes difficult or expensive 😭 Realme was bad enough!
Thanks for watching! 🙌
You're right, there doesn't seem to be any difference between the Realme air 5 pro and the 6 pro, except for IP55. It's funny :)
Oppo Enco x3i appears on the official website, but I think there are no sales yet.
i don't know if the x3i and x3 are the same product.
Is Realme or oppo louder in terms of high volume db?
(i know that loud noise is harmful for ear health, but sometimes loud noise is needed in the gym)
@tanerjames2765 yeah I reviewed the 6 Pro recently here - th-cam.com/video/dVkeCDlT30I/w-d-xo.html - only very small differences. X3i is the one I'm waiting for but I'm wondering if there will be an X3 too..... Let's wait and see.
Regarding the volume, they are both measuring roughly the same through my binaural mics connected to my Sony Xperia 1IV
Galaxy Buds pro or Qcy HT05??
I'd probably go for the Buds Pro if you can afford it, but HT05 at the price is well worth it
Realme Buds Air 5 Pro 🔥
What’s name of song? Shazam not working((
It didn't get released unfortunately 😕
you're missing the last contender!! Nothing Ear (a)
I know 😭 as you might be able to tell from my changing tan and hair throughout the video, it took me a while to make and when the Nothing (a) came out it was just over the $100 limit so I had to draw the line on that one. I'll follow up with a separate review of it and compare to the others, but my experience previously with Nothing has been a bit disappointing anyway so let's see....anyway, thanks for watching!
