I don’t mind paying more, but experiencing the Sony connection issues have given me cold feet. So if you Google “earbuds issue” are there any in the top 5 that are a safe bet?
Bose, Sennheiser?
They are all disposable because of how those tiny batteries age. I didn’t have a single issue with my akg n400 until the battery has started to go out.
Btr5 and any iem you want. Easy peasy, ggs
I can just say from my own experience that the Galaxy Buds pro (and probably the pro 2) will last for quite a while. Next to no connectivity issues, long battery life, solid sound with some EQ profiles, allthough limited in what you can configure.
Mine survived a ton of gym workouts and fell down so many times. ANC is pretty solid.
I think Sony and Bose have worked out all the “kinks” with the XM5’s and the QC Ultras… also like others have said Airpods Pro 2
There are fewer posts on xm5 issues, but might be because they are newer
Idk I bought them, they seem ok, we will see for how long
