*small Update* I was just informed by 1More that contraire to their first statement, there is no dedicated Game Mode. It is still very much usable while gaming, though.

When I was 5...I took the wheel off a Hot wheels car and stuck it in my ear... Mom had a shit fit and removed it with a tweezer... These buds remind me of that day.
7 millimeters is not "small" for true wireless earbuds. Yes, there are bigger ones out there but even the Sony WF-1000XM4 only have 6mm drivers and the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 have 7mm to only name two (great sounding) TWS. Driver size does not matter with regard to how good buds sound :)
Typical is / was 8-15mm. But they are getting smaller in the last years. And yes, i know that size does not equal “quality”, its about loudness and bass, which in the End means clarity and reproduction. 👍
Great review. Can you tell me if you feel the earbud pressing on your ears when side-sleeping? I’m trying to decide between the 1more comfo buds z or this mini one, in terms of which would hurt my ears less.
hey, glad you liked it. To be honest, i've never slept with them still in my ears, but i had them in a side sleeping position while watching a movie in the evening, and they did not hurt or press to much in any kind.
@@joo6253 hello im also side sleeper. what do you think? i need to wear almost all night because of noisy neighbors all night and a glass factory starts shift at 6AM
@@silentminority2074 hi! I’ve tried using it while side sleeping. They are small enough but because the pillow I use is firm (memory foam pillow), I can feel it pressing in my ear. On a soft shredded latex/polyester mix pillow, it is soft enough to not press the earbuds on the ear. The noise cancellation is great tho, I can hardly hear my hubby’s snoring with it on.
Hi, nice review. Can you tell me if these earbuds remember your settings. I would want ANC on all the time so if I removed them they would auto pause and I could put them back in the case to recharge. Next time I used them would ANC still be activated. I have seen conflicting reports of this in different reviews. Thanks in advance!
Hey, they always turn ANC off when you put them back into the Case. They dont remember your settings, the only thing they remember is your EQ setting through SoundID.
there is an experimental feature that turns them off silently after 40 Minutes when listening to their soothing sounds inside the App. Maybe this helps.
Hi, do you say that without any music, Anc on mode disturbs your ear? I want to buy them for sleeping without any music or sound playing? And my 2nd question which also a friend asked below is, if i see it with Comply foam eartips, will there be a problem?
its not really disturbing, but you can hear the "white noise" when you only have ANC on. To your second Question, there should not be any problem with adding a pair of foam eartips.
@@LeechTM while using samsung galaxy buds 2 - which are tiny also- the case can not be closed but for my use, there isnt amy problem. Maybe same problem can occur for 1more mini.
Hi, the mics are "okay" for a 7mm Driver, its nothing special. And yes, you can use only one earbud if you like. I dont understand the Interlocutor Question. I googled the word, but don't get the Question. Are you asking about the Quality that arrives at your Caller on the other side? Or are you asking if someone can hear your Music, when fe. riding on the Subway?
you can hear outside noise, but not that much. They mics are pretty good in just catching your voice, even though they have no stems to bring them closer to your mouth.
Was thinking if i should take these ones, or airpods pro... What would you suggest ? I talk much on the phone and also i switch connection from iphone to macbook 1000 times a day from my airpods v1...as far as i understood the bluetooth 5.2 gives opporunity to connect to 2 devices simulatniusly , so ill be able to connect to my iphone and macbook the same time ? and also are there many bugs in that aspect also ? like when i get calls on iphone but i am listening to some audio thing on macbook .... would it stop the macbook and switch to iphone call and then reverse to macboook ? Thanks , and sorry for many questions, would appreciate if you answer a little elaborated way.
Hey. So, airpods pro in Germany currently cost 170€. These right here, cost 89€. If you are willing to spend more Money, than dont go for the 1More Mini, but rather the 1More Evo. Its a night and Day Situation in my Opinion, when it comes to sound, noise cancelling and overall usage. And, the Evo only cost 139€ right now. Now to your Multi Point Question. You can connect to 2 Devices simultaneously, lets say your phone and you macbook, and while listening to a yt Vid on your Macbook, a call comes in. So, it automatically switches to your phone. And as soon as you end the call, and start the playback again, it switches back to your macbook. I had no issues with Multi Point, when it was properly integrated in the Earbud Software.
@@LeechTM tbh also thinking maybe to pick a Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 ... instead of airpods pro ... i know that is 100$ more (i will buy in USA) , but i guess the quality is much more supreme....? whats ypur take on that one?
@@inv3st_eth839 havent had any experience with any Sennheiser Buds yet, but what i heard so far from other reviewers, they havent improved much on the second Version. If this is your first set of in ear Buds, feel free to try more than one pair, and send the ones you dont like back.
Your welcome. I just tested it for you with only 1 Bud inserted. As soon as you take out the second Bud, it defaults back to the normal mode. So, ambient and ANC do NOT work with 1 Bud only. Performance wise, i cannot answer, since i havent tried the Soundcore a2 nc buds.
Why doesn't earbud makers get it? Almost every everyday earbud user wears one bud at a time to hear surroundings as well getting their calls and notifications and extend battery power then using stereo mode when listening to music, etc. at specific times. To me transparency mode is more important than ANC even though I want ANC too! 1 More hit a home run with mini's (which I have) except their transparency mode only works in stereo mode. BUMMER! I hope they can change that with an update but I doubt that they will. Again why don't all makers get it and also reviewers only mention transparency mode as a minor mention and they could help change the problem by magnifying the problem. Nice review otherwise? Cheers!
thanks. I never only used one earbud. So i did not think of testing it for that specific Feature. I rather want to hear, or not hear my surroundings. Have you tried the Linkbuds from Sony yet? These sound like they could be interesting for you.
Hlo...iam looking for the best smallest and best earbuds cause i have a small ears.....which earbuds do you think is best that i should pick up among all the earbuds 2022??
Hey, you should go and buy some for testing, and send the other ones back. As a hind, my girlfriend has also very small ears, these ones did not fit her!
mhhh, thats a hard question. I think i like the Nothing ear 1s a tad better, due to the bigger driver (creating a "fuller" Sound) But for a 7 Millimeter Driver, and SoundID, they are pretty great. I also like the ANC on the Comfobuds more.
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! I succumbed to the sirens recommending these earbuds, and i received mine today. they came without additional eartips, but looked like they are normal. Frankly i don't know how you could like those earbuds. As usally, i tried them on a difficult piece that i know well, and that i always use to test any new sound equipent that i get : the Mozart Requiem. Because there are many chorals, and if the sound doesnt pass, i will hear it immediately. I almost don't exagerate, but the singers seemed to to be singing through toilet paper rolls, the instruments are not separated, and there might have been be some reverberation added. I used the AAC codec. Believe me or not, i am using earphones headsets for decades, and TWS earbuds since they are out, I am 66 and i have been a full time free lancer in hi fi magazines in my early twenties. Of course when you get older you loose some of your hearing capacities, but these earbuds deliver one of the worst sound that i have ever heard. You might say that it could happen because i didn't get additional eartips in the box, but fitting my eartips would have changed the bass, not the mediums, and it would have had no effect on the terrible result that i got. There was nothing that an equalization could save.. I tried to tweak dolby atmos : when its released bad, it stays bad ! To be sure, i compared them with my tozo NC2, a good entry price set of earbuds costing half the price. The tozo are not perfect, but compared to these ones, it's night and day. I have other sets of earbuds, but i didn't try do compare them to all my collection. At this stage, no need. BUT ITS NOT ALL !! Lets speak of the active noise canceling : The active noise canceling is rather nice powerful, with many options The pass-through feature , is great (i never had a so good one). I like it. What i didnt like at all, is that it's ABSOLUTELY impossible to toggle it in by tappiing the headset. No tweak in the app for that. Can you imagine : you are in a noisy environment lets's say a supermarket, you set the noise reduction. Great! But if you need to speak to someone and you want to toggle the passthrough, you will have to say "excuse me" to the person in front of you, to take out your phone, to select the app, to toggle the passthrough, and only then you will be good to speak. BUT ITS NOT ALL !! I hope to be the only one in the world with this problem, but i am allergic to these earbuds. It's the second time that i am allergic to some earbuds. The first ones was the pamu quiet mini. I tried everything on the pamu like adding a finger nail vernish on the plastic to avoid a direct contact with my ears. because otherwise they was rather good, and i didn't want to loose them. Nothing worked. About the 1more comfort mini, i wore them about one hour, and some time later, my both ear canals began to be irritated. Frankly I don't know where the comfort is here, and about the possibility to sleep on them, forget it. i hope that i will be the only one beiing allergic to them, maybe you will not be. BUT what i am sure of, is that nothing was done by one more to choose its components in order that this do not happen. And here another questionnable problem : even if you don't feel an allergy with it, does this mean that these earbuds are ok for your health. As i am still on time to return them, this is the next step that i will make. Regards.
Wow, okay. I think you missed quite a few things here. First, to toggle ANC / Transparent mode, just slightly hold your Finger on them for 1 1/2 seconds, and thats it. I use it regularly, works flawless. If your earcanals get irritated, then the tips you used, are to big. Use smaller ones. Sound Quality, its good enough for a seven mm driver. But as always, sound is subjective. I mostly listen to Metal or Electronic Music, and with the SoundID tuning, it is absolutely okay, for the Size of the Driver. The SoundID makes these Buds, without that, they sound not that great.
@@LeechTM about pressing a long time, I will test it again. If I missed it I will correct my comment. About the size of the tips. I can't exchange them because there was no spares in the box. But big or small the silicone tips never caused me any irritation. To be complete, when I had an allergy with the pamu, I changed the tips for tips of another brand. It made no improvement

How long does it take before you feel ear fatigue?
@@landrodaoud1531 i often use them until they run out of battery, without having any fatigue.

In ANC mode, when the battery runs down, do they shut off quietly? I don't want a "Power Off" announcement when sleeping!

Is the ambient mode any good? I mean REALLY good? Excellent video Sir
Mhhh, i tested it while cooking lunch, and i switched on ambient. It was very clear, and i could hear all the sounds very clearly.
You mist have both buds in ears for ambient mode to work other wise ambient mode is off and the one bud is stuffy.
