    UPDATE: The actual fast charge of the earbuds with ANC ON is 1.2h with 10 mins in the case. The 10 min charge that equals 8 hours I believe is the fast charge of the case battery not the earbuds.

      Add the galaxy Bud 2 soon? Specifically the none pros, can be had for as low as $60

    • @oh0stv
      @oh0stv Рік тому

      i mean, with 4h of total playback, 8h with 10min would make a lot of sense, even with anc off.

      How much bigger is the nothing ear buds case compared to airpods. It's a deal breaker if it's too big to fit in pocket. Especially since I typically wear jeans that are on the tighter side

    These are an improvement over the 1st gen buds. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_KUgrKdeM Pros: The fit is fantastic. This is the biggest plus. They stay in my ears when running and become unnoticeable. They are tight but comfortable. The sound quality is about the same as the 1st gen buds. They pair more easily with my LG G8 ThinQ and immediately reconnect when removed from the case. The sound balance is excellent, good but not overpowering base and clean mid tones and highs.Cons: The noise cancellation is good but perhaps a little less effective than the Bose ANC on the 1st gen buds. Passthrough mode as not as good as the 1st gen buds making it a little more difficult to hear conversations when in passthrough.

    Fast charging for the Nothing is 8hr on a 10 min charge but you have to be charging the case at the same time the buds are in it. If you just put them in the case without the charging cable you'll get 1-2 hrs playback. Big difference there. Thanks for the comparison nice job 🔥🔥🇺🇸

    The problem that I've always had and that I still have with earbuds that barely have 4 hours of battery 🔋 life in ANC is that 1-2 after, they end up with a maximum of 2 hours of battery🔋 life.
    $150 may seem ''little'' compared to other high-end earbuds at $250-$300, but I think that's way too much for earbuds that can only be used for 2 years.
    The Earfun Air S at $60 for 2 years, ok, the JBL Live Pro 2 at $80-$100 for 8 hours of battery so at least 3-4 years of use ok, but earbuds at more than $100 for 2 years maximum, Nope 🙅🏽‍♂️.
    Ps: on the other hand, the microphones of the Nothing in a noisy environment are really good, well above the Airpods Pro, they are as good in this area as the Earfun Air S.

    I went with the pro 2 AirPods due to nothing having QC issues.
    AirPods case is the most convenient also, i know they are double the price (at least in Sweden) but i got apple Care with them so it's ok.
    Version 1 of nothing is notorious for disconnects, no pairing, random stops.

    James: You point out that the fit of these buds is overall great. Were you able to get a fit test performed in the app that verified that you were using the correct size? Every "fit test" I took with any and all the included tips told me to either "adjust or change the tips". Did you ever get a "good fit" in the app? I can't with mine.

    Is the battery life og nothing ear 2 good. Theoretically 4 hours with ANC seems poor. How is it in real life scenario with High ANC and 50% volume.
    I usually use without listening to music with just ANC on while flying Airplane. How is the battery in such a scenario. Can it last 5 hours with just anc and no music???
    If anyone can share it will be a great help and will be highly appreciated!

    3. Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3
    4. Airpods Pro 2 (im using apple for all my devices)
