Really like mine, bought them as my big he’s sucked for going to the gym.
Really nice case, plenty of options to fit your ears.
Only downside I have with them is the 6ish hour battery life is kinds short for most wireless earbuds, but thats down to how much energy all the noise cancelling tech uses.
When and if these die, or I put them down and get them nicked I would probably replace them with the same thing, but only if they’re on offer as got 50% off. I wouldn’t pay full price for them.
Noise cancelling non existent but average earphone.
30 earphones better than this 300 earphone
Had these for about 5 months, they are perfect for work because I can listen to a podcast and turn on the transparent feature so I can still hear what is happening around me. When not at work I can simply enjoy the sound quality and it’s superb. Great product and bought at a great price.
It’s great for long journeys or listening at home
However, I would not be able to run with these, and have in fact had one drop out when walking on the stree
I have given it 4 stars only because the design means that I have trouble making them feel safe in my ears and not falling out, when I twist them to “lock” them in place the volume goes up. sound is great all other is good. Early days so think will get use to them
Noticed the EQ was on sale and decided to pick it up instead of the Sony Linkbuds S. And oh boy was that a good decision. Lack of LDAC means nothing when the sheer sound quality and bass is on another level. ANC is not a strong point by any means on these, very much mid tier at best.
The app is quite finicky, doesn’t always work and forgets the sound preset.
Overall it’s a good option if you can get them at this reduced price.
Having read an awful lot of reviews prior to purchasing I was aware that some people were critical of these for various reasons, including poor fit, unstable connection, and difficulty getting the buds to go back in the charging case correctly. I can’t find fault with them at all and I’ve not had any of these problems, not even once.
So in summary- awesome sound quality, brilliant build quality and aesthetic design.ignore the haters these are a top drawer product at a great price ..caveat to that ..I wouldn’t pay the original 300+ price tag though but for c.120ish that I paid, I am very happy customer.
Who knew earbuds could sound this good, but only if they can fit your ears. unfortunately they don’t fit me very well. they Keep popping out. But I do recommend them
The bass weight, extension and reverberation is a little less than my cx400bt but it’s not bass light – in fact the lesser reverb makes the soundstage feel wider and less closed in than the Senn, which with the tonal balance makes for a fresher cleaner sound.
The sound quality of these compared favourably against my reference Sennheiser CX400BT and Sony WF-XB700 earphones.
B&O provide an app with an equaliser that lets you change the frequency response. It took me a while to work out but moving the control from left to right increases treble and moving top to bottom increases bass.
Moving on to other aspects:
Lying on one’s side, the weight makes them fall out.
Putting them in their case requires orienting them just so which is more fiddly and slower than others I have.
To skip tracks you need to download an update via the app which takes half hour to install. Skipping then requires 3 taps which is too much tapping and one can’t change the control scheme via the app.
You need to touch twice to change volume, presumably to avoid inadvertently changing volume when reorienting them in one’s ear but I found that practically I often did change the volume unintentionally because their weight and shape meant I handled them more than the others.
Their price was high but is now almost reasonable for the performance and brand and certainly better value than the noise cancelling Sennheiser MTW3 which has a similar upper mid forward sound.
Bought these to replace lost Jabra 75t and once set up, a marked improvement. Took a little playing around to get the app to work but probably me rather than the system. ANC is OK, not great but more than adequate. Best feature is the sound though. Close to what you would get from good quality headphones. Very pleased and looking forward to refining the fit by trying out the various buds. Not sure I would want to pay the original price but for 120, great value.
After longer use, you can feel them in ears, because they are slightly too big. It’s not a pain, but little rest makes you feel better. Beside this they are very good.
The sound is clear, and I set these to the warm eq on the app, which I never had problems with compared to some other reviews I have seen. The bass as everyone loves bass, is clean not boomy and over cooked, mids and high are detailed, the low end is rumbly but yet uplifting overall in sound as a whole. Case and the buds themselves look stunning, really classy.
My only gripe with them, the ANC feature is not the first in class compared to Sony WF-1000XM4’s or Bose QC, personally I found if you want best ANC the Sonys are you’re choice, and sadly did make me pass the EQ’s onto a friend (kind of want to EQ back lol). But if like me Sound is what you want trust me click buy, you will not be disappointed, volume at 100% also doesn’t make music fall apart and distort like many other buds do, B&O if you wanna send me a new pair please do .
I hope B&O release an firmware updates the ANC, just to help high frequency sounds, not so much on the low the foam ear tips definitely do have an impact and highly recommend putting them on.
I love the sound from these ear buds. They make listening to music a joy. The noise cancelling is not as good as my Sony over the ear headphones but I didn’t buy them for that. Case is nice and compact and does a good job of making sure the buds are always charged and ready to go when I need them. The buds can be a little fiddly to put into the case with the foam tips on though. Yes they are very expensive but the sound quality makes them worth it.
