Hi, for future videos can you add timestamps? It makes it much easier, conveniant and just better to come back and look at. I know its in description but its just an overall better viewer experience 👍❤
Noble Audio FoKus Pro and Mystique are still king in my personal experience (Mystique definitely is an un upgrade and has a functional microphone during calls), but the HiFiMan Svana is right up there depending on personal preference. I have a pair of FoKus Pro, 2x Mystique, MTW3 (for lifting/gym due to great ANC). and kept the Svanar as well though I don't use them as much.
you are absolutely on point with the sound qualities. I have apple AirPods pro, momentum true wireless 3 and mystique. since I'm not worried about repercussions for saying stuff, I think apple AirPods pros are really bad for the price. My ears hurt after listening to them for too long. momentum has a V shaped sound, and yes the vocals sometimes get lost in there. mystique has a similar problem, the mid range is muddied. Perhaps more muddied than momentum(better tuned). I'm gon try that Final ZE8000, I have a problem with earbuds falling out so it'd be perfect if it doesn't fall and I want that noise canceling. Momentum has great noise cancelling(I just turn it on not playing anything on my flights, and I could fall asleep easily).
We recently picked up some lower priced stuff from 1More and I'm hoping to do a video on those soon. Really solid "bang for your buck" both in terms of features and sound quality.
appreciate the insightful rating of the earbuds! do you have a recommendation for a TOTL true wireless earbuds that reigns supreme in the category of sound clarity, instrument separation and thumping bass? thanks in advance!
FoKus Prestige is probably still our top pick in the TWS category. Svanar Wireless has the edge in some aspects of detail and timbre, but overall - especially if you want hard hitting bass - FoKus has the edge.
I read that I need Snapdragon Sound compatible devices for Final ZE8000. Did you use them with a similar device or one without it? How does the experience differ?
Snapdragon Sound gives you some enhanced options for spatial sound and gaming, but we did most of our testing across stuff like iPhones and audiophile DAPs that were just using AAC or aptX Bluetooth 5.0 connection.
Great video. Would've liked to see waterproof standard along with the "baseball card" of each model. The FoKus Mistique isn't rated for use in rain, for example, and their marketing lists them as good for "occasional workouts"
Not to nitpick, however you said the ZE8000’s bass response is more about the texture than the feel. Aren’t those pretty much one in the same? Would love to hear your expanded thoughts on that statement, not sure what you meant by that. I would categorize feeling/texture as essentially one in the same
This is Steve (Matt did this review), but I think what he means by feel here is more impact/physicality. Texture meaning that you can perceive the details in the texture of the instruments - the plucking of a bass guitar string, the vibration of a drum skin - vs "impact" or "feeling the bass" meaning just more air moving and creating a more noticeable physical response. So ZE8000 has a stronger sense that you can feel the texture and character of the instruments, but less of a direct physical impact.
Hey Bloom team. Do you guys, or anyone committing on this video, have an opinion of The GEEKFLY GF10? I own the GEEKFLY GF10, Noble Fokus mystique, Campfire Audio Orbit, and Sony WF-1000XM5. I know people will scoff at the fact that the GEEKFLY doesn't support the latest Bluetooth and only uses AAC codec, but it seems they make up for it with their excellent five drivers(7mm titanium ball top Dynamic, 2 full range BA's, and 2 14 layer piezo electric ceramic tweeters.plus they are amplified using a class A amplification. Any thoughts? Do we place too much emphasis on the latest Bluetooth and codecs? Starts to sound like the old argument that more drivers in an iem means better sound quality. Can be true but certainly not always.
Pretty nice review. I have used Jabra Elite 6, Sony XM4, Bose Earbuds, and now on the Mystique. Mystique misses on all the other features but the sound paired to my a&k SR25 is like end game atleast on wireless side
hi im deciding between the svanar wireless and noble audio prestige but wondering about the loudness of these as i like to listen to my music very loudly. which one is louder? do both these crank?
In terms of raw volume, the FoKus Prestige gets a little bit louder than Svanar wireless, but personally I haven't tested the absolute max limits of either.
it all depends on personal preference man, the reviews serve as a guide to your preferred qualities. Some people prefer good bass, some prefer good treble, some likes wide soundstage...etc.
Hey there, I don't believe we deleted your last comment, but if they somehow did, we apologize! As for the comparison. the Svanar takes the cake for offering a more complete sound signature. It has great texture in the lowend, where the Sennhesier Momentum 3 has more boom, with a bit more bloat.
I think some people might listen to ZE8000 and like it more than some comparably priced wired in-ears, but I think overall, most good comparably priced in-ears are going to give you better performance.
$500,000usd budget Im looking for the best most expensive tws If you come please provide me with that information so that i can purchase that would be greatly appreciated
@2:42 the sound is "dry" and "brittle"?! C'mon now, how pretentious can you get. Why not include the time stamp of the particular song you're listening to to come up with these descriptors. It's honestly ridiculous how audiophiles want to feel so special that they pretend they can taste, touch and feel music better than us normal folks who can only hear it.
Honestly, including some specific song references in our videos is a good idea. We typically pick a few songs when we do a written review to point out specific characteristics in specific instruments and specific songs. I know it can sound pretentious sometimes, but our hope is to offer some kind of description on the experience that will be helpful to people interested in buying something featured in our reviews. Maybe "brittle" doesn't make sense to everyone, but if that's the word we came up with, maybe someone listening will have experienced treble characteristics that they didn't like and the word "brittle" describes what they felt as well. We're always open to feedback, and hope to improve the quality of our reviews to be useful to as many people as possible!
Ha2 its funny when audiophiles Needs TWS. U talk u much with zero important input How bout multipoint?.. Airpod dun have it Most of ur pick doesnt.. Do ur homewerk then review.. peace!

You guys rock! There really are so many amazing options these days. I bought the Noble Mystique from you guys and they’re sick!
Noble Audio FoKus Pro and Mystique are still king in my personal experience (Mystique definitely is an un upgrade and has a functional microphone during calls), but the HiFiMan Svana is right up there depending on personal preference. I have a pair of FoKus Pro, 2x Mystique, MTW3 (for lifting/gym due to great ANC). and kept the Svanar as well though I don't use them as much.
Any reviews of the denon perl ?

Momentum has great noise cancelling(I just turn it on not playing anything on my flights, and I could fall asleep easily).
Now that the Noble FoKus Prestige is out, is Svanar Wireless better or Prestige better (sound quality only, ignoring ANC/transparency/etc.).
All of these are quite premium, would love to see a budget shootout! Really loving the nothing ear (2) right now

Well, the video is called “the best” not the cheapest

How do these TWS earbuds fare against the Beoplay EX? Would love your review on it

Nicely done! What a clear and thorough explanation of each set. I'm a Momentum 3 user and they are fun. This review got me thinking about the Svanar
Thank you!

Is ZE8000 better than Pixel Buds Pro?

Timbre+detail of the bass as opposed to dynamics and slam (air movement) with less timbre+detail

When you say charge time do you mean runtime? Charge time is how long it takes to charge.

Which earbuds have the best sound for iPhone users?

@@PureValentinowhat can you recommend? For iphone ipad user
Great video - very helpful.
If you compare the svanar by hihiman to the momemtum 3 tws from Sennheiser, which one sound the best? Which one has the best bass (punchy bass)?
What ??!! You delete my last comments?! Wow… i am speechless
Sennheiser doesn't charge. The case and the buds don't connect. Look elsewhere.

Is final Ze8000 better than wired earphones like Ie 600?
