This is what i was founding! Thanks!
You're amazing! Thanks for the review
Thanks for watching - happy you enjoyed it. Do come on back for new videos every week! 😁
Hey I literally came across your channel by accident. And I am happy I did..love the in depth reviews with your unique style. Keep going strong..yes I agree the world needs some love ..😁😁😁👍👍👍
Hey Patrick, welcome to the GearUP fam! Hope you keep coming back for more of the good stuff, lol
It's tough to beat Soundcore when it comes to value. That said, Edifier put up a good fight. Me personally, I prefer the looks of the WH950NB over the Q45. I feel like its more simple, plus it reminds me of the Skullcandy Hesh, which I like quite a lot. Both are very decent at the end of the day. Would love to win one for sure
I found your channel on my recommendations. Great review
Great points - thanks for sharing! Brands like Edifier and 1More are definitely catching up to Soundcore.
Love how you review gear. Refreshing, informative... and very close to answering real world questions. The perfect bridge between some audiophile fluff and customer advice/tests. Good work on this - will be watching more of your videos and def hitting the subscribe button.
Thanks for the props! I appreciate you watching this and hope you come back every week for new episodes. 😁 Have a great weekend!
I’m looking to upgrade my headphone and then I found your channel! Really like how you do the detailed review and comparison. And now you make me want to listen to this Edifier 950Nb. I checked out your other videos and it’s great as expected 👍
Welcome to the channel 🤘! Let us know what headphones you settle on - lots of folks here would like know what you think!
Thanks Aaron ! Have a great weekend 😊
You the same! Get some good R&R. Are you taking part in the giveaway?
Hairdryer test, great idea!!
It's like a wind tunnel for the home, lol!
Keep up the good work Aaron! I subscribed after watching your Liberty 4 review. I ve see ALL reviews and your review was the most accurate of all. I know as I got them and all your cons were spot on.
The stem controls are more usable now since Soundcore added sensitivity strength in the app, which didn't exist when I shot the review. Did you end up returning them?
@@gearupaaron At the time you reviewed them, they felt almost like a beta version!!!!!!! so many issues. spatial audio useless. connectivity issues, audio quality, so many issues. but MIC quality was super fine so I got them on a trip at NYC and wished for a firmware upgrade. :)
Thankfully I got to a beta firmware testing group and I can now say that with the firmware update that is coming these buds performance will be phenomenal compared to the product released at first!!
I HAVE to say that if someone wants a REAL, unbiased review to decide if a product is worth it or not based on their needs, then your reviews are a MUST! Keep it up man!
Happy to help (and maybe keep you entertained at the same time)! Do share the word🤘
One of your videos was suggested by RUclips and here I am
Finally, the WH950NB has arrived! It´s simply AMAZING!! Confortable, light, beautifull. The sound quality is impressive. Very Clear, I can feel all stereo effect. Really that sound isn't so loud in bluetooth mode, but when I use the WH950NB in wired mode connected in my soundblaster Z sound card, it releases your power. I'm trully satisfied. Best acquisition of the year until now. Thanks once more for your analisys, Aaron. It was decisive for my choice.
Happy you're enjoying your new toy! Did you manage to get it at a good price?
@@gearupaaron Well, in my country , unfortunelly, the products are overpriced because the high taxes and it’s hard to compares the price with other countries. I bough the wh950nb for USD 142,00 (BRL 692,00)
Ooof, that's steep 💰
Nice review. Call quality seems really good.
Definitely different tuning between each other, but the 950NB sounds richer to me.
Hi, great review. Continue in headphones reviews.
RUclips showed me your channel when I found some headphones reviews.
I prefer black color.
Very nice review. 👍🏽
Thanks for watching, sir! 😁
Bubble great giveaway . I feel like its more simple, plus it reminds me of the Skullcandy Hesh, which I like quite a lot. Both are very decent at the end of the day , color is black
How did i find your channel @gear up with Aron? One Faithful day in October 2022 I felt the need to review headphones that are great and fairly priced. Searched for headphone/ earbud reviews and behold! your channel came up. I watched your review on a soundcore earbud. I was impressed with how you did your review and here I am still tuning in to your content to this day. Continue producing quality tech content @GearupwithAron. Black with Gold accents is my preferred 950NB color...
The mic quality on edifier seems to be a bit better than soundcore. Almost indistinguishable though. Thanks for the video!
Good ears! Thanks for watching... And don't forget about the giveaway 😀
Concerning the Q45's app. I like the 'Piano' & 'Acoustic' presets out of the 22 presets. Also, Q45 has LDAC too. Plus, an 8 band EQ. And multiple ANC modes Adaptive or 1-5 & Transparency has multiple adjustments too. Firmware updates are nice too. Still, my Oneodio A70s have a slightly better 3D sound field. But, no ANC or LDAC. Also, they were built for pros or semi pro DJs. Yeah, the Edifier did have a better mic though........PS I just got my Q45s a week ago.
Happy to hear you're enjoying your Soundcores 🤘Thanks for sharing your experience!
Well, to be honest I found your chapter when I was searching about the soundcore q45 and edifier wh950nb, so tais is my first video I believe. And to me the white color is amazing
Thanks for watching and your support, Felipe! 🤙🙌
Best headphones, . I feel like its more simple, plus it reminds me of the Skullcandy Hesh, which I like quite a lot. Both are very decent at the end of the day , color is black
Thanks for sharing your experience! Can't believe the Hesh still goes for $100 on Amazon 😧
Hi Aaron! I'm from Brazil and i appreciate your review. Was so simple, but very very explicative. I'm looking for a comparative video about this headphones and found your channel. The WH950NB is my choice! Congratulations for your videos! God bless you!
Well, thanks so much for checking out this video, Jackson! I'm glad it helped your decision with the Edifier. Do let us know what you think of it when you get it 😁
@@gearupaaron Sure! In truth, my first contact with Edifier product was in 2009 when i bought a 2.1 system, the x100b (basic, but very good sound quality). Today I have the edifier TWS 1 pro and I love it. Thanks for your reply !
@@gearupaaron last time i bought edifier w820nb plus,i was disappointed because of the volume,it was quite low compared to same priced headphones like anker soundcore life q20+,now i'm planning to buy the edifier w950nb,does this headphone has the same "low volume" issue like edifier w820nb plus??
Holy cow that’s a good microphone on the Edifier
Not bad, innit?
I had to subscribe now as he said this is the best RUclips channel.
It's just hearsay, lol! Still, glad you made it here... Welcome to the GearUP fam! 🤘🔥
Hi Aaron love watching your videos. I discovered your channel recently on twitter while scrolling through tweets, probably because I retweeted some headphones related tweets. I would love to try out the awesome Edifier headphone, 55 hours of play time is absolutely insane. The noise cancellation and mic is great too. If I win I would love the 950NB in black. Much love
Happy your found this channel! Black is a good color for these 950s 😎
Recently I was reading TWS reviews on reddit when I saw that someone recommends your channel. I checked out some videos and subscribed. Currently still in search for a good TWS that would uncover the market to me, an iem user.
Sorry for the belated response... Yours got lost in the shuffle 😔. Appreciate you watching this, btw. Have you narrowed down your TWS selection yet?
Aaron Thanks Much!
🤘🤘👍👍✌️✌️😁
Yo! Excelent review i enjoy watching tech videos and thats how i found your channel and got addicted to your videos (excelent reviews, comparasons and tests, and very enjoyable too). Most of the time these products are out of my finantial reach (i use the haylou gt1 that i boght in 2020) but now, i have a little hope to get ones and tried them my self, if so i like the black ones.
Keep up the good work Aaron!!.
greetings from México.
ps: Also, you look like Franco escamilla a famous comedian from México , just a curios fact jejeje😅
Thanks for the comedy tip, Miguel! Go Mexico! 🇲🇽 Don't worry, look out for more giveaways in the coming months 😎
The edifier wh950nb seems to be a good alternative that's on par with the sony variant!! Been looking for headphones now but I'll try my luck here too
Don't worry, there are more giveaways coming up 😎
I'm an audiophile type with some "consumer V shaped" sensibilities regarding sound signatures. In other words, I like my mids scooped, my bass feeling round and punchy and trebs rolled back but clear and sparkly. With my listening centralizing around deep bass electronic music, bass driven hard rock and reggae, these do it for me without any hesitance.
Out of the box these sound alright enough that they feel exciting and promising right off the hop (It helped with them being exceptionally comfy). I left them in dynamic mode and skipped the custom EQ in app (I found it unnecessarily confusing). Between Wavelet and the Samsung EQ I was able to dial an extraordinarily adequate sound signature. Very balanced but deep bass, only missing the truely sub bass frequencies... I hear everything in the music with clarity and distinction between the sounds. Sound stage is a bit tight but with Wavelet, adding 15 percent soundstage does the trick for that. My only complaint is that the trebs, no matter what I do, sound a bit harsh and crunchy. I tamed this with tweaking but it comes with sacrifice as I have to dull down the trebles a bit more than I would like to control the harshness. But I'm still satisfied with the result.
Please note though, OOTB, these headphones sound only pretty ok. With EQ and settings tweaking while using LDAC and maxxed out data transmission specs, they sound AWESOME. Truly. I am super into the sound signature I got out of these. Very immersive and satisfying.
The pads and headband material is this type of soft that could only be compared to the skin of an infant? If you like soft, you will want to continually touch these. The headband I have seen complaints about, I have an egg shaped head so anything beyond the cushion of the band does not touch my head. Zero complaints with the comfort of that.
Clamp force is very comparable to the q35's however maybe slightly looser. They create a great seal. I can still wear them at the gym and they barely slide back on my sweaty bald head while laying on the bench. Only a slight adjustment is needed to to orient them to prevent slide. Otherwise they are very stable.
ANC is pretty damn good but sitting with silence or quiet segments in a song I could still hear the bus engine while in transit. Very minimized but it still cut through. Walking on the street I could slightly hear cars passing. Compared to how they sounded when anc was off however made their performance notably more impressive as they were doing a great job of reducing their sound by a large margin. However, these do not block out sound well enough that you can put them on and sit in silence with no music playing. For example I could still hear my gf watching IG on her phone beside me when I had no music playing.
The depth of the earpad memory foam is entirely adequate, unlike the soundcore q35's. Those earpads feel trashy, especially when compared to the Edifiers. When the q35's are on you can see the foam fully compressed and the frame of them are barely cushioned at all. They're foamy enough, but BARELY. The edifier's when on have more cushion to give then are "required" and do not look maxxed out when viewing them on.
Sure these lack 2 trendy features, those being "auto off" when you take them off your head and "cup for transparency". But with the button layout being reliable and ergonomic to achieve those 2 things without any hitches or room for failure, I can't see why those features would be missed. From experience, the auto off features on headphones often don't work right. With an ANC button ands pause button made with tactile rubber right where my hands go when reaching to take them off, I don't see why I would need the features these are missing.
I do not reccomend for gaming though. They sounded BAD when plugged in and bass was very distorted.
The construction of these are refined, the cup swivel feels pro, the hinges feel sturdy and the overall construction does not feel cheap or vulnerable to breaking. Everything about them feels VERY NICE. They don't creak or make sounds other than the following: When sitting with the music off and anc on, if I turn my head back and forth I can sometimes hear the metal connecting material in contact with the earcup plastic.
In others words you're a pretentious poser. Any one that calls themselves an audiophile is a douchebag.
Hey Aaron, great comparison. 😊I'd love to see a head-to-head battle between the Soundcore Space Q45 and the JBL Live 660. That would be a really fierce battle! I have them both and can't decide which would win. I'd love to hear what a real reviewer would say.
How do you know I'm not AI-generated? 😁
@@gearupaaron Well for starters, despite your uncanny resemblance to Jason Scott Lee, you're not a 10. Have you seen some of those AI's?
@dontsurroundurselfwithurself Maybe I should make a quasi Jason Scott Lee avatar as my digital presenter, but with my voice. 🤔
Soft sound bluetooth, I found this channel because of the review you do, the color I want is black
Edifier’s mic is loud and clear! SC’s sounds painful, I’d feel bad for the others on the other end of the call.
From Edifier's retweet. Honestly I was tempted not to follow your channel thinking that's another paid review. Buy I ended up watching the all video. You clearly made your point like Leo from Kitguru. I wish I knew your channel when I had to choose between Sony and Bose. Nice work. Keep it up.
Thanks 🤘 for the props, Vale and happy you found this channel. Hope to see you around soon!
I'll be. Even for fun.
😂🤘
I wanted to buy some wireless headphones - as a gift for my daughter and I was just looking for some reviews/advices. I found this and subscribed! And yes, I will try my luck here too! Thanks for the chance. I really loved your video and looking forward to watch more. Let me get some mango ice cream and hit the play button! Yeeeeeeeeei! Thank you! 😍
Welcome to the GearUP fam, Daniel 🤘! Feel free to ask anyone here if you have further Qs about headphones.
Found your channel from your latest post on twitter talking about the contest. I would have to pick black as a color as I would get the white ones to dirty I think.
Fwiw, it's easy enough to clean. Don't ask me how I found out 😁 ... Anyway, happy you found this channel and thanks for your comment 🤘
I own the JBL 660 nc Tomorrowland and they are very good,have good nc and I paid 129,00 Euro.I also have the Soundcore Q20i and for the price of 34,99 Euro they are great,with good anc. I am still looking for one with ldac support.The Soundcore Q45 looks weird on the head and the 1 More too.Might try the Edifier 950 nc and change the earcups if too warm,with cooling gel earcups.
Found the video on my fyp, rly good, like the giveaway, thanks
Hello! Keep up the awesome work! I enjoyed each of your videos! I am about to purchase the Edifier because it seems more comfortable and durable and also with better sound in terms of quality, i think that the nc might not have significant differences and at last i prefer the edifier design (because of the shape). But I see that it does not support AAC and i run an iPhone, i am going to connect them frequently into laptop. I want to know if i can fix the most of the problem with SBC when using iPhone by optimising it using EQ. What is your opinion? 😀
I'm wondering how the XROUND Voca Max compares to these two
I came across your channel because most videos i watch are mostly about tech. It sometimes come up as recommended but this video in particular i searched cause i was looking for a comparison between both these headphones specifically. I do hope i win. id like the white one please. Even if its the one you’re using. I don’t mind if its 2nd hand. Thank you!
Found looking through headset reviews.
Cool, thanks for checking GearUP out! 🤙
Tbh found u by accident , but dang such good and detailed review and quality , u finna get more subs soon dude. Hope I cop those headphones.
Yeah, Gagan! Thank you for your subs and the props 🤘🔥
Boot new headphone , I found this channel because of the review you do, the color I want is black
If I have Q45 for [100%] price then WH950ND [89%] price and WB820NB [40%] price and Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT2 [144%] price. Which one should I choose?
Hey Aaron, your channel came up while searching for reviews on buds and earphones….I’ve been stuck ever since. In a good way of course 💪🏾👍🏾.
Keep doing the do bro #White headphones rock!!
Thanks for your support, Robin! Hope you keep coming back for more of the good stuff 😁
Where is this recorded? I like the scenery or land, I think I saw a creek or pond in the back.
Oh ok, now I got to that part, nevermind
Hi, could I ask you for your opinion? I was intending to get these headphones but I think the lack of AAC could be a major problem given that I use iPhone and mainly Apple Music. At this point would you advise me to focus on the Soundcore or look at the Sennheiser Accentum?
Headphones with no AAC support on iOS will switch to SBC, which is ideal for most kinds of listening. Of course, feel free to check out the other brands you suggested. 😁
Hi Aaron, I think this is the first site I have subscribed to because of the quality and tech advice. This is important question and sorry if I missed it. The Sony extra bass 910’s are on sale at more than 50% off for $120 today and the Ediphier has a $40 off coupon so they listened to you. I’ve had two pair of 910’s and I don’t return stuff. 1st pair fell in the ocean off a catamaran in Cancun. Loved them although the bass vibrated and cut out mids and highs somewhat. 2nd pair might have been a defect. feedback bass vibrations even with eq set low. Which do I replace with tomorrow at under $150 each?
Appreciate the support, Jeff - glad you found this channel! Sounds like you prefer plenty of bass for headphones, so you want to stick with the 910. Otherwise, the Edifier just feels higher end and more future-proof.
I listen to everything. Preference is rock and metal. I will try the 910’s again because they retail for $130 more than the sale, but mids and highs are important in my music. Ya had me an Edifier fan. Maybe just the Sony build quality and higher mid level retail price point says this is a deal? I understand your neutrality. Thanks for the fast response. @@gearupaaron
Interesting! Versus the $150 sony 720n headphones?
I had a (really) brief listen to the Sony and found ANC way superior but SQ not as rich.
How do the Q45’s compare to athm50bt ?
That’s a solid review. I’m in the middle of selecting a good pair of all around muffs, got tired of in ears tbh. Right now WH950 are equivalent of 110 vs 120 USD for Q45. Which one would You pulled the trigger on in this case? Any other favourites in the price range under 150?
Really depends on your priority - like, are you needing ANC, sound, comfort, so on and so forth.
@@gearupaaron tbh right now just need a good all-arounders. Kinda sleept all the ANC era cause though I was ok with what I was using but…but after hitting 40 the balance started to shift towards comfort and I really can’t say in ears are in the comfort zone. Maybe it’s me not being compatible but they just don’t seem right, can’t say whether it’s a fit issue, or the feeling of pressure or just the “budget” problem. Never really put more than 70 bucks for a pair so there can be that. The idea is to return to big ol bulky “tank operator style”. As they are targeted to
Jack of all trades - being used in and outdoors - think a “nice” ANC would be nice. This also means they will be used just as much for music (metal, rock, instrumental, OST’s) as for media consumption (movies, podcasts). Other stuff like wear sensors or fancy ambient touch control is of course added value but can live w/o that. Source is not super demanding - mostly iPhone 13 PRO I think having AAC would be beneficial over SBC?! Also I’m not expecting audiophile level (as the price point suggest also ;) ) but SQ is important.
After watching some solid options from your portfolio of content I’ve pinpointed those two as solid contenders with unfortunate price differences that’s why wanted to ask a “what if…” question. There’s also a good chance I’m missing some other option.
Anyway, that’s a long one from me.
Gotcha. I think you'll be happy with either especially if there's a $10 difference between the two where you're at. I'd probably do the same. 😎
Help me out guys. I need pros and cron. Im confused which one to pick. Edifier wh950nb, jbl tune 770nc or sony ch720n.
Bunny get giveaway, I found this channel because of the review you do, the color I want is black
Despite anc, how is it compare to Ath m50x bt2
You mean SQ-wise? Audio-Technica trumps it.
Same dilemma. Still not seeing anything or any experiences from users that will make me choose one over the other :( I really need help
Are you asking about bass quality too? If so, I just replied to another person below with my thoughts on that.
How are the edifiers for watching movies? I have a nebula cosmos projector and having the space Q45 for movies is awesome so I wanna know how they compare.
In Movie mode, latency is pretty solid. However, I've noticed that Nebula projectors seem to bias audio towards Soundcore products. Others tend to delay more drastically somehow.
@@gearupaaron good to know. Thanks for the video.
@@gearupaaron most of the time I’m using the nebula with my ps4 to watch Blu-ray’s so I usually just use an aux cable.
@@sharksbean Okay, I see.
@@sharksbean No problem - thank you for watching and your comments!
as a Q45 owner - what would you say is the best eq setting? and do you have your own eq settings you would like to share with us? greets Wouter
For testing purposes, I leave mine in the default factory setting, as the company intended, lol.
Sounded like the Soundcore has much better noise cancelling.
Hey Aaron love your videos the way I found your channel was when I was in search for some headphones and still am lol 😅 but I ran into your video on the status headphones that you did and loved the way you reviewed them and been following you ever since from that video. I hope this gives me a chance of winning the giveaway it would be really great for me since I’m a student and don’t really have the budget of buying headphones and the colors I would love is the white one and if I do win the giveaway can you please sign the boxcase of the headphones
Thanks for your kind words and props! It's great having you as part of the GearUP fam 🤘😎
Which one should i go if they both offering same price discount?
Depends on your criteria/priorities in a headphone.
Why would you have a hair dryer when you have almost no hair like me (second degree humour inside) ?
IMO, it always comes to what feeds your need and budget.
Enjoy the new year and go on with informative content like this one !
Happy New Year to you too! 🎉
no AAC on the edifier is really a bummer. I was considering to get it, but maybe not
Are you running an iPhone?
@@gearupaaron yes iphone
Couldn’t stand the q45s without the extra bass setting. Returned them. Hoping the edifiers do better
Same here.
Edifiers are much better btw!!
@@growth_with_nick I'm curious to test them as well but kinda still amazed by thx audio amp power and clarity and subtle details with Razer barcudda pro
Oh dang I shoulda checked those out too haha
@@growth_with_nick biiiig boy soundstage and zero fatigue for long listening works with both Bluetooth and 2.4ghz for pc
who is best for bass edifier or soundcore? reply plz
Personally, I prefer bass on the Edifier, which is smoother and more welcoming, whereas the Q45 hits lower (but doesn't slam hard for bass lovers). Hope that helps some! Thanks for watching this 🤙
Always refreshing to see your videos. My Q45s are still holding up!
They're built almost like tanks! Thanks for watching, as always 🤘
If I want to lay in bed with one of these on, which is more likely to handle some side-sleeping position listening?
Hi Jonathan, personally neither would work for side sleeping, but I think the 950 would probably be the least intrusive. Have a great weekend and thanks for watching 🤘
does 950nb have multipoint connectivity?
Yes, it does.
Aaron...you left your headphones out in the 🌧️ again! 😂
I like living on the edge 😁
It is a shame that there is no possibility to turn off the hear-through while having a call with Edifier, which makes them unusable in an open office environment where people around you talk and you get distracted by the voice around you...really sad, otherwise I will buy them immediately as their mic is way more natural than Soundcore's one.
Fwiw, you can adjust the strength of the hear-through from within the app. Level 1 is pretty soft. Hope that helps some! Thanks for watching, btw 😁
Soundcore has an app too 🤔
Yup, I covered the app in detail in prior Soundcore videos, so didn't feel like repeating myself. Thanks for watching this!
Good review. But why you don't show soundcore app??
IIRC, I did a deep dive in either the Q30 and/or Q35 video. The app functions are fundamentally the same.
@@gearupaaronok but Soundcore has more preloaded presets and genres, e.g. reading, and Edifier doesn't seem to have this....but its still better then my old Sony wh710n hehe')
so for iphone user which one the best? should i go with soundcore cuz its have aac? but what if i use edifier with equalizer is it still good?
Apple devices have preferential treatment toward AAC, so in this case, the Soundcore will serve you better. You could still get the Edifier (and even though technically SBC has a slightly better sample rate than AAC), but it will perform worse when paired with an iPhone. Hope that helps some!
@@gearupaaron thanks, it helps a lot, have you tried the edifier with 3.5? cuz i played fps game and if use 3.5 is it gonna sound good on iphone (im using converter), cuz i want the edifier tbh hahaha
Sorry, what's 3.5?
@@gearupaaron 3.5 audio cable
14:00 and 14:46. 14:23 and 15:05
Aaron you are cool man. You alright with me.
Cheers, mate! Glad you enjoyed it 😎
If one only prefer sound quality and wider sound stage which one will you recommend?
Tough one because the Edifier has better SQ (to me) and the Soundcore has a wider soundstage.
What about Google Fast Pair?
Yes it does, Saeed. Thanks for your question!
How much would you price the edifier, I'm a retailer looking to price it
In the $145-155 range, since it's new. Never been asked that question before, so a million life points for you, lol!
@@gearupaaron Thanks I saw some retailers selling the Q45 for 90$ and my whole world collapsed😱
Oooff, that's quite the bargain
My experience with the Soundcore products (Q10 Q20 Q20+ Q35 and Q45) remains constant. Just meh ANC and not so hot ambient mode. Never liked the soundcore app (just me anyway).
If the Edifier was closer to $100 I'd buy right away. I just cannot find a ANC over the ear headphones that also has excellent ambient mode. My fault for being pretty deaf. Curse you all of the concerts in my 20's.
I'm sure those concerts were worth it, right? You're right that good ambient is really hard to find even in 2023.
The cleer Alpha have an amazing ambient mode! Also they basically have all the top tier features most headphones have. My favorite is their conversation mode. Sounds like I dont even have headphones on
Is the edifier foam pads replaceable like their other offerings?
Yes, it snaps right off!
edifier rt your tweet , black thanks
Head to the video for details on what it takes to qualify. 👍
the size of the drivers is never a factor of sound quality
It's a factor though not the sole factor.
You missed a big point in the video. Edifiers sound mich more natural and less mechanic than soundcore. Like the sound of the vocal or instruments fell more natural and realistic with edifiers and you can't fix that with eqing the soundcores.
Who is the winner interm of sound? 😅
There isn't really - both offer differing tuning and have strengths/weakness in their own right, so it's a matter of taste.
@@gearupaaron I just bought 980 with the prize of 100$ while Q45 is 100$ too.
Hope it is a good deal for 980
Man your anc testing method 💀
🤙 Hope it helped, at least!
I guess as usual Edifier win in aspect of mic quality, but Soundcore is better in Noise Cancelling and Ambient Mode. Thanks for the detailed review.
I just happened know this underrated tech channel when I was browsing on youtube main page after I mindlessly searching for new ANC headphones. For the colour, I like black the most, because it masks the wear and tear after certain time.
Happy you found GearUP, Bryan! Thanks for sharing your observation too - ANC is a close call depending on what sounds they're exposed to, but ambient is definitely for the Soundcore.
Okay so in conclusion, which is the best Bluetooth headphone option on the market to listen to Scary Pockets under $200? Lol im serious😂
How about the Audio Technica ATH-M50XBT2 - they use the wired version in their studios 😁
@@gearupaaron Hey Aaron. So you would reccomend ATH-M50XBT2 over Edifer or soundcore?That model AT Is best buy I supose under 200$?I'm in dilemma, this Edifier or spend 20$ more for ATH-M50XBT2, for music quality...
If it's purely for music quality, then yes - Audio Technica FTW!
ANC is clearly better on Q45s.
Active noise cancellation invented by Bose not Soundcore...
It was a joke 🤣
I pick edifier due to its design and comfort. The looks are lowkey i cant rock soundcore its ugly asf
Good reasons 👍 And thanks for watching!
