Excellent video Andy! I appreciate how you can talk about the sound and be so much more descriptive than many other channels reviewing these wireless earbuds. Even if I don’t have an earbud in front of me, I can see what you’re saying on the frequency response graphs. It’s obvious you’re in a different league compared to other channels who gloss over audio performance.
Normally, I use earbuds in the Metro. In the past, I had a silicone allergy, so I had to use half in-ear buds, but I shared your concern about them easily falling out. Therefore, I switched to the hook style of on-ear buds. Currently, my silicone allergy has improved, so I returned to in-ear buds and recently upgraded from Soundcore Liberty 4 Classic to 4 Pro, and I am very satisfied with everything I got. The preference A/B mode allows me to customize my buds to my taste without EQ adjustment. As for Earfun, I have three pairs of different models. I used them only once or twice and never used them again due to the dry sound. I recently tried Liberty 4 in Airplane mode on my last trip. It fully eliminated the engine noise, but if you pause the music, you can still hear the PA announcements. I have the Samsung Buds 3 (not pro) for myself it's the best half in ear as I try.
Another solid and in depth review Andy, thank you. I agree with much of what you said with these models, haven't used the 1+ buds 3 yet though. My stem buds of the year and of present are the nothing ear 2024. They were my go to fast more often than my other favorites that are 2-3x their price. Excellent Buds and and excellent video here. Ty
7:28 Wrong! All AirPods DO have ANC off as an option, you just need to turn it on way down in the AirPods settings menu under "Off Listening Mode". Otherwise great video!
Awesome video, AS ALWAYS, thanx Man. By the way, I once forgot one of my AirPods Pro 2 in the pocket of my jeans and washed the jeans with 60°. And this earbud, still works absolutely NORMAL, even after accidentally dropped the same earbud into a glass of Orange Juice, with no negative effect, still works like the other one. Why only one earbud? Because I’m SSD = Single Side Deaf and that’s why only my right ear works and I only wear 1 earbud all the time. Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭
As much as I don't like Apple 🍏, as much it's impossible not to recommend the Airpods Pro 2 or Airpod 4 ANC to anyone in the Apple closesystem 🔐, the same for the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and all people in the Samsung closesytem On the other hand, it's obvious that without even realizing it, unconsciously majority of people favor, respect Apple 🍏 and consider the use of an iPhone, Apple products as natural, obvious, normal, which is why we generally see Apple earbuds tested on iPhones to ensure they have the best possible performance, when, Samsung, Huawei, OnePlus... earbuds are not necessarily entitled to the same treatment and are not necessarily tested with smartphones of their respective brands. Back to the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, in truth, it's very, very difficult if not impossible for me to recommend them (I'm a user of Samsung products, but I hate any product that is linked and restricted by an ecosystem), especially when products like Huawei Freebuds Pro 3 /4, Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro, OnePlus Buds Pro 3... exist 🤷🏽♂️ On the other hand, no, the Airpods Pro 2 are not the best earbuds with stems on the market.
I believe the AirPods Pro 2 is still your best option as long as you use an iPhone but in all other cases I recommend the OnePlus or the Soundcore instead. Just as you do 🙂
You're so right bro, airpods are always tested on apple products and samsung/other brands of earbuds do not get the same treatment. Im using buds 3 pros on S24 and Z flip 5 and they work amazing, anc and transparency are unbelievable. Switching is seamless. Sucks we don't get to see that in reviews.
Hi Andy I guess You’ve got the wrong Firmware Update on Your AirPods Pro 2 or Your iPhone, because I CAN turn off the ANC MODE on my AirPods Pro 2 in the settings or the Control Center Volume-Slider. Greetings from Helvetia 🇨🇭
I was wrong, turning "Off Listening Mode" on in the settings will bring it back. But it's turned off by default as I could see that's why I must have missed it...

Hi Andy
I guess You’ve got the wrong Firmware Update on Your AirPods Pro 2 or Your iPhone, because I CAN turn off the ANC MODE on my AirPods Pro 2 in the settings or the Control Center Volume-Slider.
Greetings from Helvetia 🇨🇭
They seem to have removed the ANC off option, I checked it on both my iPad and on my wife's iPhone.
I was wrong, turning "Off Listening Mode" on in the settings will bring it back. But it's turned off by default as I could see that's why I must have missed it...
Conclusion is if your budget is low earfun pro 4 are best
Samsung wins with b3p. I usually hate Samsung but couldn't deny them on these.
BRO YOU FORGOT ABOUT B&O
Yeah and many others...
