Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I bought refurbished ones of these for $130. It was really bad for the price. The noise cancellation was not very good. The earpiece was big and bulky. It kept falling out and always landed hard on the ground. I really wanted to like it since it arrived practically brand new but it sucked. That's my experience with these.

The reviews for these earbuds are atrocious. Especially for the price.

Recently purchased the XM5s on clearance ~$115. Have several wireless earbuds I can compare them to (Apple AirPods Pro 1, AirPods Pro 3, Powerbeats Pro 2, Google Pixel Buds).

If you can get a good fit, they sound pretty good. But for the life of me, tried all the sizes of the silicon/foam tips, requested additional from Sony, and cannot consistently get a good seal. So YMMV - I'd recommend just getting AirPods Pro 3 and calling it a day.

I got these refurbed for 110$ and my wife has air pod 2 pros. The air pods have better noise canceling, but the airpods just fall out of my ears. I think the sound is better on these though. These are probably the best at noise cancelling outside of Bose or Apple. 200$ is a bit steep. For 100$ I'd buy them again.

Try these - a whole new technology, 98% as good as the industry benchmark flagship and only $46:

If you want the Sony flagship equivalent competitor w the flagship price:

I use these inside a helmet. These are tiny and the best out there - IF YOU GET A GOOD SEAL. Airpods, all of them, are terrible with helmets. I have the Pro 3 and the 4 with ANC. Nope. Bose are still the best, but they are too bulky for helmets. The XM5 have better ANC but are too bulky for helmets. So there's that.

I have somehow huge ear canals, and I got 14mm ear tips from Final, type E, size LL. These are the only tips that make these amazing.

However I got mine refurb for 130, like new. And I want an extra pair, but not at this price.
