I cannot believe the sound quality to price ratio you get with these. My Bose QuietComforts, though better at ANC, are a close match in regards to sound quality. I also have the Nothing Buds (a), and they do not match the sound quality that these particular CMFs provide. These CMFs have dual drivers, while many others utilize single drivers. I find this dual driver design superior for louder listening, especially for high frequencies or spatial effects as those beloved deep bass notes don't drown out the highs as they are emitted from a dedicated driver. Build quality, being honest, is a B-, while the Nothing Buds get an A- from me. They're all plastic at the end of the day, I just feel the CMFs could of used a bit higher quality material, yet it does keep the bud weight down, so maybe it wasn't by accident. Battery life is not an issue and a full charge of the case will easily carry you through the day. With ANC off, it will last you several days of moderate to heavy use. Noise canceling is pretty good, but I'm comparing that to a much more expensive set designed specifically for ANC, so they do the job well. So for the price, build, sound and features, you sincerely can't go wrong with a set of these. I'm big into music, and especially the quality side of things as true high fidelity music hits different. With LDAC support on these with a new enough device, you can aquire some high quality music on your phone using applications such as Tidal or QoBoz. If you really want to enjoy the full sound quality, start there. As a bonus, the case and its ability to deactivate its control features by a double press is a huge plus if you're worried about mistakenly triggering commands. The Nothing Brand is not playing around as they have a plethora of devices out, and they are not stopping as far as improvements..Firmware updates which take a few minutes will be needed out of the box, so plan on that on your first use. 5☆ Read more

These earbuds are amazing. Great fit. Noise cancelling is good and wonderful range of sound. Glad I did research to find this brand/model over some of the larger brands. Connected seamlessly to my phone. Having a case with control features is a big plus also. Would definitely recommend these buds. Read more

I bought these on sale about a year ago at $50 and it was an amazing purchase. They have great value for their price and their app is very usable and clean. The sound quality is great, I use the electronic eq setting with ultra bass off, and I think they sound wonderful for being a budget pair of earbuds. Their connectivity can be iffy at times, but I’ve found that to be a source issue more than anything. The noise cancellation is pretty good, obviously not going to be the best, but with music at half volume it does a great job. The earbud controls as well as the dial on the case are very easy to use and customizable. The durability of the case is also pretty impressive as well, I’ve dropped it many times while running on concrete and only have a few scratches and marks to show from it. If you’re considering these, I would definitely recommend getting them. Read more

I've been testing out the buds for a little over a week now and I have to say, I really like them. Off the bat, I love the design of the buds and the case, and the bass even at the lowest setting is really strong, in a good way. The buds fit well in my ears which is usually a problem having to find one that do. Audio quality is crystal clear and the app lets you adjust as needed. Had some trouble connecting the buds at first, my phone (S22 Ultra) didn't detect them right away but other devices that are just as old, did. The smart dial, which is the main reason I wanted to try out these buds didn't work initially, so I did some research and connected them to my tablet which did work, and that someway got my phone to connect the dial as well. And I have to the say, the smart dial is an AWESOME feature to have!!! It acts like a controller for the buds and can make for a cool fidget toy. I came from the Galaxy buds 2 which is almost double the price of these buds at the time. And I would say, these are the better sounding devices. Everything sounds great coming in, and during my call tests, they are pretty good but you won't sound as clear, a bit distance or washed out, as talking directly into your phone's mic. And as good as these buds are, there are some drawbacks, the touch controls on the buds themselves LACK a single tap/play pause feature which is standard for other buds but you can do it via the smart dial. The in-ear detection that would play or pause your music when you take the buds on or off works well with music apps but not 100% of the time and doesn't really work for video apps like Youtube and Netflix, so you have to pause the video directly. And there are times when I would put in the buds and it seems like the noise cancelling would toggle and off for a sec to adjust to the last setting you had them on. Speaking of noise cancelling, they are good, both transparency mode and active. Active is not going to blow you away but it definitely works and even the more expensive Samsung buds I had, weren't any better at NC. All the pros and overall quality of the buds, I say its worth the price you are paying, so give them a shot! Read more

Great sound! Not perfect, but perfect for my needs. I primarily listen to audiobooks so crisp clear voice is what I look for in earbuds, and these do not disappoint. I got these to get me though waiting for replacements to my Samsung buds, I did not expect to fall in love, but I did and won't be going back to the Samsung buds. The case Wheel control save's me time and again... Not reaching for my ear when someone comes up to my desk is cool, I just click the wheel to stop my book, no one even has a clue that I'm listening to my books. I am very please with the ANC, not overly complicated and fit so easily that I forget I'm wearing them. I really appreciate that the app is easy to use and connects automatically. I have to mention that Nothing's customer support is phenomenal! Extremely prompt with answers to any question I have! Read more
