The other true wireless buds I've tested: crinacle.com/guide/tws The IEM Ranking List where I've ranked 1,000+ IEMs: crinacle.com/rankings/iems

There’s a trick to the active noise cancelling that i have yet to see talked about. If you yell “EVERYBODY SHUT UP” as loud as you can, everyone around you literally goes silent, and then they start mocking you but their voices murmer at a frequency low enough that ANC directly cancels it perfectly

You're my king of reviews. No fancy panning montage of 4k shots of the buds with psychedelic music and superficial descriptions, just straight nerd talk and thorough comparisons with every competitors for 20 minutes. Per-fect. Thanks.

Cancel culture is wild, wouldn’t even leave noise alone 😢

Was impressed by the graph from twitter and the review did not disappoint. This review is very on time for me as well because awhile back I lost the case of my wf-1000xm3s in a grab ride (good to know I made a good choice back then even before looking into audio stuff!). It makes me SO sad when I work out. IEM cables and moving machines are a terrifying combination. There's also this really epic thing that women clothing does and it's where they just don't have pockets. I'M LITERALLY USING RAYCONS RIGHT NOW TO SAVE MONEY AND I WANT TO CRY. I'll most likely be getting these when I have some money to spare. Though I'll have to look into other reviews and features of the buds 2 pros vs other TWS on the market since daily driving features like audio pass through and the ANC matters to me as well. I'm only going to be using wireless earbuds at the gym anyway. The care to review and explain things to beginners is definitely going to help a lot of newbies watching this and that's why I love watching your stuff. The quick comparisons to other ear buds at the end was also GREAT because I needed to know quickly without looking through all of your videos (and some of them aren't video reviewed here/on your dead channel so I'd have to visit your website). Keep up the great work and enjoy your time in America!

Funnily enough, the whole thing about ANC not cancelling high frequency noises is what I quite like about them. They allow you to passively be aware of your surroundings while still enjoying your music, because low frequency interference is the biggest encumberance to enjoying most music. The passive noise cancellation on my custom IEMs is amazing but I hate wearing them when out and about.

even foam earplugs have a limit of -33 dB noise reduction since sound doesn't just travel through the ear canal, so one can imagine that TWS buds are not going to fair much better in passive isolation. there's only so much you can do with 3 standard eartip sizes.

Yooo! You're the dude who maintains that list?! That's crazy! I was using that sheet for years!

Discovered you last week just doing some general headphone research. Not an audiophile. Thanks to you I am slightly less ignorant regarding audio. You are entertaining and easy to to listen to - subscribed.

New crinacle video LET'S GOOOO

If you have a Samsung phone, you can in fact EQ these manually. Instead of the app, open the EQ in the phone's settings.

Great review Crin, would love to see these compared to the tws from Final Audio as well!

I would love a video on a deep dive into the Harman target. I know that it’s easiest to say, “this is the most preferred target,” but to my understanding it does go so much deeper than that.

Damnit man. This was such a good review and I haven't delved into audiophile stuff for ages. Easy sub

I love the series + acknowledgement of previous videos in one video, thanks 👍

FANTASTIC review and delivery!! New subscriber for sure!! THANK YOU!! I JUST bought the Buds 2 Pro. I never thought that my Sony XM4's could be beat. So I took a chance on these. I am SOOO glad that I did!! These Samsung's are fantastic!! The ONLY reason that I ditched the XM4's was due to the mic. Whenever I called someone, that person could barely hear me. Said it always sounded like I was under water or talking into a can....don't get me wrong, the music sounded amazing!! But with the Buds 2 Pro, I lost none of the music quality, and gained a MUCH better calling experience (i.e. mic)...SOOOOO glad that I made the switch!!

Enjoyed this immensely and learned a lot too! Keep up the great work!

I like that even though you try to keep it technical you still dumb it down enough that it's understandable. Never once did I feel overwhelmed by information and that is a talent all to itself. I find when channels tend to be too technical they lose my attention span, and I get bored. I never once even thought to pick up my mouse and skip through your video even though I already have buds2pros so I know how good they are.

Amazing review the comparison to other buds is exactly what I want to hear. Great work!

Love the style of this video, even if I wasn't looking for insight into good sounding buds, I would want to watch this

The introduction made me subscribed. Plus I love his confidence.

I think the final ze3000/2000 are strong contenders, they have excellent passive NC with the e-type eartips, and they sound super natural, and has some depth in it's midbass

Great video, bro. Learned a lot in 20+ minutes. Keep up the good work!

Yeah my first video of yours. Absolutely subscribing. The opening was pure gold 🤣

Huge fan. It’s like a theater, a song and engineering mastery at the same time. Plus the information. 11/10 score.

These sound amazing and are overall amazing in general as long as noise canceling and an incredible app aren’t your hard points. The sound is so good, wore them to the gym a few times and I was certain I would have to get comply tips or just use over the ears. Nope…they stayed in through the whole workout, and I sweat like a demon. Great video about a fantastic product

I'm indeed new to the channel. And yes you calling out all the newcomers reactions instantly made my subscribe. Great humour!

followed your reviews and got QCY T5 & Galaxy buds2, I don't regret it one bit. Thanks!!!

Really loved your explanation of passive and active noise cancellation. I've expected my first pair of ANC headphones to magically eliminate everything that I hear.

I recently picked those up and the absolute best part is how comfortable they are, you barely feel them when you use them. The sound is good, it's not gonna blow your mind in my opinion but it's definitely not bad, it's what you expect honestly. I'm however a bit saddened by the lack of customisability for the button presses, well the touch buttons, and their functionality.

I love your confidence! Well done on great content !

Good review and thank you for all those EQ presets 👍

I bought these sand I agree they sound great, im really surprised actually how good they sound.

Great review, thanks to you I pulled the trigger on the Buds Pro. I'll like to know your opinion on Google's products, for example, the recently launched pixel buds pro, since I've seen tons of youtubers calling them the best on the market, problem is, I kinda trust your opinion better. Hope your channel gets bigger

Love this channel l!! Seems we have pretty similar preferences in sound. Just ordered my buds 2 pro's after my current cheap Jabees earbuds fell apart. Really looking forward to hearing how they sound with my s22 ultra.

Another great review! I might be in the market for a new TWS set soon. I don't know how much of this is just this video, but I heard a lot more echo and background noise in this video. I'd reccomend getting the mic closer to your mouth, or switching to a lavalier mic! Sorry to be annoying, but with working on a lot of production and recording lately it really stood out to me.

I've used the Buds+ for a very long time, then made the switch to the Buds Pro in favour of ANC. My main complaint with the Buds Pro (and the reason why I don't want to buy the Buds Pro 2) is because of ear tip compatibility and sound isolation. Without ANC turned on they simply don't sound good, ANC is a must in this case. I use the Buds Pro for everything, that includes going to the gym. Unfortunately the shape of the eartip doesn't fit that well in my ears, no matter the size. I've tried three different ear-tips, including The comply ones (meant for the Jabra 85t, same design) and the weird double ones, but both do not properly fit on the Buds. It literally happened twice so far (once with type) that I removed the Bud from my ear just to find out that the eartip is still in my ear, and that's not a risk I'm willing to take especially when I don't have tweezers on me. They really need to let that odd shape go so it's compatible with more eartips and mitigate tolerance issues with those third party eartips.

Noise cancellation is simply the act of cancelling noise, SUBSRIBED !

yesss, been waiting for this. Wasnt sure if I wanted to upgrade my buds pro 1 to the new set, but after this I might just have to

Amazing, well detailed, great sense of humor type of video my friend. I salute you.

I got these free as a throw-in when I upgraded my Z Fold 2 to the Fold 4. I'm not usually an IEM fan as I generally don't like sh*t crammed into my ears, preferring over-the-ear cans instead. However, I have to say that I've been very pleasantly surprised by these, especially with the Dynamic EQ preset. I've been using these regularly.

Wonderful video crin! What are your thoughts on bluetooth wireless adapters like the FIIO UTWS3 and UTWS5?

Great analysis as always!

Thank you so much for talking about ANC!!! Cant wait for your airpods pro 2 review 🤩🤩

honestly prefer the form factor of the buds+ since the newer cases are chunkier, it's really the only thing that's prevented me from upgrading even if the sound quality isn't perfect

You can tell he was a good student and probably one of those people who you'd ask for help and they'd say no figure it out while hiding his work🤣

Dude your videos are great!

I got the Buds 2 pro yesterday, and oh boy, there something really bad happened. Dont know if my Buds 2 pro is defective, but the bass, a lot of bass, but muddy and not much detail, and the sibilance is off the chart.... I listen to "Kiss me" by Vo.Nai and Ceilena, my Moondrop Kato doesn't have any sib, even the Chu, but buds 2 pro have a lot of sibilance in the chorus, the word "Kiss", "Rises" cut through my skull like a razor.... Does anyone have this issue? or is it just me...

Just discovered this channel. Not only does he know his stuff, he's also funny AF!!!

Love Samsung being the king of TWS audio, but there's still the concern of the potential longevity of the product as batteries degrade and with this product category getting harder to repair with every iteration. I don't want to throw out perfectly good drivers just because the battery doesn't last as long as I want it to.

First time on the channel,love it , great vibe,no bullshit,sub must have 😉

Thank you very much, Crinacle! I just got my Buds2 Pro today and I love them. They are well balanced and the bass is so pleasant. The decision was taken because of your review and the mentions in other videos about the Galaxy lineup. I am wondering now how it compares to the Zero:RED. I hope to test them someday.

Crinacle is a revolutionary figure in the world of Hi-Fi audio, and is the most experienced individual when it comes to tuning measurements in in-ear monitors.

I am curious as to what your thoughts would be on the LG Tone Free line of TWS buds. I personally like the sound signature from my FP9 version of them

Great video, for passive noise canceling pickup a pair of foam tips. I grabbed a pair on Amazon. They are more comfortable and drowns out everything.

I've had two different pairs of these and had the same issue with both: They had a very awkward insertion angle and shallow fit and couldn't get a proper seal no matter what eartip I tried, and the improper shallow fit made the treble extremely sibilant and hurt my ears/upset my tinnitus. All the included tips have wide bores which further worsens the already harsh treble. I had the same issue with the airpods pro 2 for exactly the same reasons. The stem made the awkward insertion angle even worse however, as it got in the way and pressed against my outer ear very uncomfortably. It had the best feeling, most complete and least likely to activate by mistake controls, but that really didn't make up for physical pain, bad sound and upset tinnitus. The Sony LinkBuds S however fit and sound absolutely perfect, they are incredibly comfortable and they include a hardware EQ that has 6 bands (if you count "Clear Bass" which in effect is a sub-200Hz extra EQ band). Not perfect, but flexible enough to customize the frequency response to your liking or needs. They have a straight insertion angle so it copes much better with awkwardly angled canals (you can wear the IEM slightly angled and it'll still fit your outer ear fine), and the tips have narrow bores resulting in less harsh treble. Having tried all three, for me there really was absolutely no contest. I wear the LinkBuds S literally all day and they sound incredible after EQ, whereas the Apple and Samsung offerings were physically unusable for me. So far Sony have never let me down with audio.

Ok, I'm sticking with this dude for actual earbuds reviews 😂⚡⚡⚡

You led me to buy the buds + and boi!!!!! what a buy. From that point on, you've been the main source for audio. The pros, were a disappointing because of the fit, but I traded for the Buds pro 2....I bought two. I can sleep with them on, which make them amazing. Best buy, I got one for daily and one for my PC/sleep. Cant regret a the buy.

Nice...from nowadays ur channel will be my guidelines to buy audio peripheral....honest + audio knowledge....kipidap bro....terbaeek....🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍👍👍

Ahh i hope your videos appear on my youtube suggestions sooner 😂

I use these with my iPhone and just to add in the user experience, it's fine. I used AirPods before this, the Samsung don't have "hey Siri" and other smart stuff that AirPods can do but they connect well, there is no Bluetooth disconnection problems and the range is also fine. However I have to connect them to a friend's Samsung from time to time so that I can update software and change settings like what does single tap/double tap does etc

I would love if Crinacle made a video about the UTWS5 from FiiO. It would make the best Truly Wireless In Ear Monitor in combination with anyone's favorite IEM

Absolute god tier informative review and explanation on these wireless earbuds

I’ve never seen you. But dude, your voice is smooth as hell… and your flex is strong. I’m in, lol.

Well now I have these, and now to find out how to get them to fit properly in my ears... They sound absolutely fantastic, where any other earbuds I had previously sound tinny in comparison. BUT, they just don't wanna fit in my ears... I have used all 3 included sizes, and TWO different brands of aftermarket cups, and they still slowly work themselves out of my ear holes. If anyone has any good recommendations for cups that work well, I would love to hear it!

I had the buds pro and I found some video that suggested changing the rubber tips to “literally anything else” bc they were so bad at passive noise cancelling. I found some old senheisser wired buds I had and used those… different earbuds. Sounds like it’s the same with the buds2 pro

Would love a wireless headphone review! Keep up the great content.

Coming back after 1 year and tons of knowledge acquired to say, Yes! these headphones are the Best 'sounding' in the market. Ditching the V shaped EQ was unexpected, and so surprisingly good. Thanks again

Personally, I’m still gonna stan the N400’s. I genuinely like the “shout” of Harman and Diffuse Field and my personal target has slightly higher treble than Harman.

Still rocking the buds pro, I was surprised at how good they were back then honestly. I did not expect samsung to improve as much as they did with the 2s Edit: they even survived a 50min tumble wash, but one lost a significant amount of bass. Guess it's time to upgrade

You got me. Good delivery. Factual. Humourous. Good video editing. What you going to talk about? I'm in.

Thanks crin just waited for your review and i can say i feel the same way as you about them

Fit: amazing. Noise canceling: very good. Ambient mode: more natural than Buds 2, use it all the time. Bass: eehhhhhh, good, lots of it. Won't blow your mind. Treble: pretty f'ing great. Satisfying, a liiiittle bit spicy (in a good way) Overall... the Hbb x Tripowin Mele are better at $50. But I still think the 2 Pro are very good. Convenience rules

The king of audio strikes again

Hi I love your videos and your ranking list. The new ranking update when??

So I got these free with my Flip4 and overall I can tell you the wireless is convinient, to the point that I have accepted that truly wireless is what we should be targeting for earbuds. Sound wise I have permenantly considered them to be overall average quality. This means better than most consumer things, but worse than most audiophile things. I only ever used the noise cancelation on an international flight. It was definitely better than not having noise cancelation, but there definitely is a pressure it puts in your ear and there is some leaking of higher frequencies in. I lost my pair at a wedding earlier this week. They had a tracking feature built in but did not send me a notification when I left them. Most likely it was added sometime after I received and set up mine. I did not like them enough that I feel that I need to buy a new pair now. Instead I have fiio utws5 and moondrop Kato on the way. We will see if I lile the system better, or if the Ecosystem Integrations™©® of Samsung are worth going back to.

Crin.. this is really important.. is your graphing based on running the buds 2 pro with or without a samsung device as source? As SSC will sound somewhat better than what AAC might. Please clarify.

You should review Oppo enco X2. They have got really great reviews too

Your hair looks dope in this video... noticed the effort👍 Respect.

I just bought the Buds2 yesterday.

I got these, in part because of this review, but I'm a little confused how much people seem to like these. For pop, hiphop and edm these earbuds are honestly amazing and the bass is super detailed and clean but they are HORRID when listening to rock, metal or honestly anything that has a lot of detail in the mids. The mids are completely pulled back and muffled while the bass is super amplified in these earbuds. I guess this is because of the harman signature but even then, the way the mids are pulled back seems super extreme? I would really love to hear some else's opinion about this. I just don't understand why no one is talking about this...

Still rocking my n400's thanks to you and happy about it

The best technical reviewer of this product I've seen. Thank you

This man is as legit as they come. The OG Galaxy Buds Pro really have superior sound to (almost) everything else like his review said. If he says the Buds2 improves, I am sold. Sony has a tough hill to climb fo their XM5s.

I wish he mentioned the 24 audio bit and how he felt about it.

As always, great information.

I love you take and very professional review. I have the liberty 3 pro , airpods pro and just recently got the buds to pro as I recently changed to the samsung ecosystem. I can say that just as you said initially it all depends on the ear shape. For me the liberty 3 pro have a good passive NC if i use the large ear tips. The buds 2 pro using the medium size buds will truly make passive nc bad, but once I put the larger eartips its like im in a vacuum. I tested both ANC from liberty 3 pro and buds 2 pro with a whites noise, fan noise, car sounds outside and also inside with tv and with my ear shape and using the larger tips i personally felt that the buds 2 pro are really to notch, better than the L3pro. But good but for my ears the buds 2 pro are just great

Would love a comparison of the new BOSE TWS and Airpods Pro 2 against the Buds 2 Pro.

GTA VI leaks and uncle Crin in the same day...

F%cking love your videos... The sense of sarcasm is strong in this young Palawan.

Ok, I'm buying these. Thanks for the review!

Like Crinacle says, the passive noise cancellation sucks on the Buds 2 Pro. I just upgraded from the Buds+. The passive noise cancellation was so good that I could vacuum or whatever with them and just enjoy my music. With the Buds 2 Pro, I have to turn the ANC on (killing the battery) to get the same effect. I never had any desire to use ANC before.

air pods pro 2 comparison coming soon?? need to know which to get Edit: you addressed this in the video🙂

thanks for the video. very informative.

Found the most nerd channel ever about earphones, subscribed ❤❤❤😊😊😊

Just ordered the Buds 2 Pro, and the chart vs the Sony XM4 makes me think they will take over as my daily drivers. I have to use the EQ on the Sonys to tame the excessive bass and to bring up the mids and highs, but it looks like the Samsungs are at least better out of the box on mids and highs. I'll probably have to tone down the bass a bit with eq, though.

You can EQ anything on a Samsung phone with the sound assistant app.

This is good to know information. My previous machinist job allowed for its employees to use headphones and earbuds. I NEED a less than stellar passive noise cancel in order to hear any abnormalites when machines run so I can stop them on a dime. Outside of my work I prefer to let some ambient sound through for awareness' sake. I don't want to completely shut the world out.

Awesome video! Now what do you think about the 360 audio feature of the Buds2 Pro, specially compared to the Airpods Pro2?

If you look at Reddit they pretty consistently cite the Liberty 3 Pros as the best sounding TWS. So I think it's pretty insane that you haven't reviewed them yet.
