Hi all how many of you are premium and affordable users. Premium meaning , a user who buy 200 to 300 dollars earbud superb anc and sounds. Eg brand bose queit comfort ultra gen 2.
Budget user who spent about 70 to 100+(not exceeding 100), like anker soundcore 5. As long anc ok and sound ok.

Qn. Is it worth it to buy 300+ earbud?

instead of a binary choice, suggest to look at it in terms of your own requirements and budget

$30 earbud already has ANC

$300 earbud may be worth it, for those who can hear the difference

everyone can enjoy both at the same time, need not be a binary choice, most important, don't care about others, look at your own needs

Apart from the (subjective/intensely personal) audio signature preference, the design, branding, the (pseudo. /s) science behind the construct etc also can also emotively affect purchase choice.

And then there is the budget.

The issue is batteries will not last be it premium or affordable. Nowadays I go for affordable TWS and premium wried earpiece.

Not worth it to get anything more than $150 these days when cheaper earbuds can also have really good audio quality.

Batteries for such wireless earbuds will die fast. Battery life is short so you charge more often, run up charge cycles, and battery life becomes shorter and shorter.

Because now China products very cheap... I can buy 10 $30 earpiece to replace a $300 ear piece, let's say 1 last for 6 months can last me 5 years
