For liberty air 2, its a good one to consider if you value call quality above anything else. Only that not everyone likes the AirPods wannabe design (though its this design that usually gives that best call quality). Newer earpieces are trying to shorten the stem to make it less obstructive and conspicuous.

Liberty air 2 also do not have full control schemes. Although the app allows customisation of controls, you can never have the full control schemes that many other earpieces have. Eg, if you want volume control, you have to sacrifice voice assistant and return track functionality. Not an issue if you never use these.

As for the outliers, the first thing u need to do is to change their eartips. You probably have heard some horror stories like ear infections with the default eartips. Outliers also have some connectivity issues which creative is addressing.

Only outlier gold support app. Outlier air do not. Both have fantastic battery life though.
Ya agreed with u. It has one double tap and hold press. No single tap which is very strange. One downside is no notification sound when taping the touch controls.

Thanks for the inputs. Any reason why liberty air2 or outlier is not recommended? It’s around $130ish in Shopee for air2 and i believe less than 200 for ouier too

The newer Anker earbuds all have white noise, dependable if you're sensitive to it.

Outlier a lot of people have reported ear infections due to the fit/material.

N6pro has the best sound quality of them all, but maybe not everyone can appreciate as it is a right fast sound as compared to consumer friendly V shaped sound with elevated bass and treble.

Melomania 1 has a warm sound and excels at vocals.

75t I feel is too bassy without definition, maybe to appeal to mass consumers.

Call quality have not tried much since I don't call much.

Thanks for the feedback. Between the n6pro and melomania, which has better soundstage and seperation?

Thanks for the reviews
How do you think these ~$200 phones compare to the Sony wf1000 and Sennheiser momentum?

I quite like the wf-1000xm3 also, the sound quality is excellent and has app to customize the earbuds. Sennheiser momentum I don't quite like the sound signature.

Listened to it in shop. Didn't quite like it cos the treble and mids not detailed enough to my liking.

Similar thoughts. The Nuarl N6pro and Noble Falcon was quite decent earphones, but I need the Jabra Elite active 75T to replace my exercise earphone.

These 2 just arrived. :s12:

I was itching to buy another also (managed to get rid of some of my no-brands and sold away my e12 ultra), was considering another soundpeats:

But eventually decided to take a risk and dump to a pair of totally unheard of earbuds in the international scene, but received raving reviews in mainland china.

https://post.smzdm.com/p/a5kq5dnk/

Highlights:
Double master, smooth switching
10-12 hrs of playtime from single charge
2600mah charging case (15 recharges), etc

For mine, it states to be an upgraded white version which has volume control and AI voice control. (Meaning I can use my voice to control all operations of the earbuds)
It has an app to control the AI voice control, not sure if the app has EQ.

Waiting for it to arrive to test the features and sound. (Damage incurred: Less than $60 inclusive of shipping).

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I eventually went for the Air2. After 2 days of use, my thoughts:

Pros: good sound quality, fit is good due to buds of various sizes, call quality is ok, good aesthetics, great value for relatively low cost
Cons: reconnectivity is clunky as sometimes the left earbud will have no sound. Ease of connection not as seamless as Sony wh1000. Charging case feels filmsy and cheap. The cover feels like it is going to snap off anytime.

All in all, happy with my purchase with outlay of $100

That's the connectivity you get from qualcomm tws+. Its driving me crazy, especially if you are a person who connects and switches between multiple devices. Sometimes there is lag in connecting, sometimes only one side have sound, and worst, sometimes it won't connect and erases your earbuds' bluetooth profile from your device.

I am trying to get rid of the tws+ earbuds I owned. Already sold off sabbat e12 ultra, next to go is soundpeats truedots. (Truedots is has high value-to-features worth, but tws+ killed it)

In my opinion:
Double master/mirroring > Tws+ > Master/slave config

Qualcomm's new chips, announced earlier, will feature mirroring, making connection more seamless in the new earbuds which uses them.
