Borrowed my friends pair for a day and they are awesome lightweight and comfortable with the comply tips that are included wondering when best buy will have in stock so i can purchase my own
DeathWaitingRoom –
Watch many videos about these earbuds, now im just waiting for them to restock please hurry and restock lol
BrianTVegas –
Ive tried them all. Momentums 1,2 & 3, Airpod Pro’s, Beats & the list continues. If you are after the BEST FIT (once you find the right size foam tips) & BEST SOUNDING earbuds these are it. I tried the EQ’s and they are aweome but i had issues with them fallong out when I ran. Plus the touch controls were super touch. These EX’s are much more user friendly. The ANC is better with the airpod pros & Momentum 3’s but for me the fact that these EX’s sounds quality is more important. The EQ’s caused ear fatique but the EX… NONE! Going on 3hrs with it in my ears At The Moment without even adjauting them 1x. If you think 150$ is to much more go with the Momentum 2’s. If you care more about ANC, gonwith thr Airpod Pros. If you care about SOUND… go with these BEOPLAY EX’s.

I get it. You have some AirPods Pros you swear by. You’re convinced they are the best sounding, most high quality, and coolest things you have. But let me tell you: there are better options out there. These will sound breathtaking to you compared to so many other buds on the market. The sound and the build quality are worthy of the $399. They’re buds you can buy and not have to worry about upgrading later on. The sound is that good. They may not be the best at ANC. If you want the best ANC, get the Sony buds or the Seinhesser MW3. The black versions of these look outstanding. They also come in gold if that’s your thing!

These are really nice. Fit is great and the sound is amazing. Battery life is acceptable. Noise canceling could be better, so much so I sometimes don’t know which setting is which when I toggle by tapping the left ear bud. If that is important to you then look elsewhere. If fit and sound are important these are your buds.

So i’ve always been a skull candy person. Well my current pair of earbuds from them finally after a couple years started wearing out. I decided to start checking out other brands because why not. Came across these and started watching reviews because 400$ lol. I said why not everything seems pretty awesome with them etc. all i can say is, MONEY WELL SPENT. These are the absolute clearest and cleanest sounding earbuds i have ever experienced. The sound quality is INSANE. Perfect bass, treble, mids, highs, lows, you name it. I always needed volume maxed out on other earbuds but not these. All i can say is try them. Dont let the 400$ price tag scare you. They are fantastic.

These headphones sound absolutely amazing. I test rode the sennheiser momentum true wireless 3 airpod pro 2 and these ex easily blows them out the water as far as sound quality. The base is very beefy which I love. My only gripe is the app needs some work. It is pretty basic. Also when you are going from ANC, ambient sound and neutral you can barely tell the difference when something is playing. Also the ambient sound on the airpod pros are way better than these literally sound like you have nothing in your ears. For the money i feel like that is not acceptable I guess the airpods spoiled me. Ill be keeping these for my work out headphones for best sound quality. My airpod pros 2 will be my out and about headphones. If you are all about music you wont be disappointed. Also to note when i was doing the firmware update was very buggy. I kept getting bluetooth connection errors. I literally had to put the case right on top of my iphone 14 max for the update to push. It literally took like 5 tries. Not a good out of box experience.

These are the best sounding earbuds I’ve ever had. Before these I had the original Bose QC’s and there is a big difference in sound quality. The bass response with these is amazing, the depth and clarity are stunning. As others have said, if you are looking for the best noise canceling earbuds these are not it. If the noise canceling was better they’d be absolutely unreal!! But if you want the best sounding earbuds, these are it!
TCM7 –
These things are unreal! I have owned nearly every earbud available, AirPod Pros 1&2, Sennheiser Momentum’s, Bose Quiet Comfort II’s, Beats Pro Fit True, Sony XM4’s, and NOTHING even remotely compares to the sound quality of these. They are on a level that I cannot describe in a review. Listening to music that I have been listening to for years is like a brand new experience, because I am hearing elements in the songs that I never heard before.
Is the noise cancellation as good as Bose Quiet Comfort II’s? No, but it’s just as good as the AirPod Pros. However, with the amazing sound dynamic trust me when I say it won’t even matter.
The fit of these is outstanding! Hands down the most comfortable fitting earbuds I have tried. The AirPod Pros would slowly pop out of my ears, these simply do not.
Absolutely worth every penny. The construction of the charging case and feel of the buds shows that the quality is worth it alone, let alone for how amazing they sound!

These sound great and are surprisingly comfortable. I have the Sennheiser ear buds and they feel too large in my small ears (but otherwise sound nice). I have also used the Master and Dynamic MW07… those are comfortable and sound great (real ice looking too). Alas, my daughter stole them. I was going to get myself an upgrade to the MW08 but Best Buy seems to have stopped selling them. So, I decided to give these “Bangs” a try. My “other half” has had a previous version of Bang earbuds but they had a leather case that does not charge wirelessly. I don’t do leather and wireless charging is the best. So, gave this a try and they are surprisingly good and have wireless charging. I have small ears but they seem to stay put quite well. I have also had air pods and airpod pros and they would fall out of my ears … more importantly, they sound terrible.
Anyone who has tried the earbuds from any of the Best Buy Magnolia line know that those earbuds are on another level and cannot be compared to an apple product.
Another great feature of these is that you can listen to only one pod seamlessly without one turning off and I don’t think it matters which one you take out. This is nice in an office where you want to hear what’s going on around you but need to make a call.
In spite of the steep price tag, I find this to be great. I did ding them in battery life because I think all my other ear buds have better battery life. But I would still get these again bc of the comfort and sound. Plus it’s nothing to put them in the wireless charger… when I remember to do it!
Fujifilm –
As I read somewhere, if anc is important then don’t get these. If you really like to hear clean, clear music get these.
EXCUSTOMER –
Best Buy is a bunch of thieves!!! Charged my credit card without shipping the merchandise. Tried calling and passed around for 1-hour BS!!!
MichaelM –
Sound quality is excellent. In ear fit is secure. They are exactly what I was searching for.
Dylan –
Very good earbuds, use for commute or home listening. Very good product
Chad –
Great for music. Battery life is a bit less than other ear buds. Fairly comfortable as well
Aplew –
Great sound, a little tough to figure out the pairing at first, but now it is flawless. Love these and they fit better than any of the other wireless ear buds I’ve used.
JeremyS –
The audio quality is great but the glass piece over the logo is a terrible design for something like this. I bought this as a gift for my son and while wearing them, one fell out and hit the ground and the glass cover shattered. Though it doesn’t seem to have an effect on the audio quality, it’s highly annoying that there are materials on this that can shatter so easily. For as much as they cost, they should be designed in a way that this can’t happen/use materials that don’t shatter.
Samtennis –
My son did research to find the best wireless headphones for his dad’s Christmas present, and we chose these based on that research and customer reviews. No doubt, we are very happy with our decision to get the Bang & Olufsen brand. The earbuds are comfortable to wear and the sound is crisp and clear. My husband loves them and they’re well worth the extra money.

Bang and Olufsen (B&O) changed things up with the Beoplay EX over the Beoplay EQ. They added larger drivers, increased comfort, added stems for better call quality, and improved ANC all while keeping their stellar build quality, feature set, and audio quality.
I’ve gone through so many earbuds that I’ve lost track. Every time I think I find a pair that works for me, they either experience glitching, won’t stay in my ears, or hurt my ears. I’ve given up on trying to find the absolute best earbud that’s the most comfortable with the highest level of ANC and audio quality that I like.
Other brands have come close in terms of audio quality, but their earbuds hurt my ears. I’m not sure what B&O has done here, as stem-styled earbuds usually fall out of my ears, but the Beoplay EX are extremely comfortable and stay in my ears. I can walk, eat, jog, exercise, bend over, and lay down without the earbuds budging. That’s all with the medium rubber ear tips.
The Beoplay EX are easy to pop in and out of your ears with a slight twist. They feature a stem and have improved phone call quality compared to the Beoplay EQ. They still aren’t the absolute best but are a viable solution.
The EX feature stellar audio quality. B&O added a larger driver in the earbuds and sculpted their sound to be a bit more neutral out of the box. There’s still some emphasis on bass, these fit within the standard V-shaped Harmon curve, but they’re mostly neutral as-is. B&O offer an EQ in their companion app. I wish it were at least a 3-band EQ, it isn’t. B&O went with a more consumer-friendly approach with a circle and a selector you drag around. It works, but I would have preferred a 3-band EQ for more advanced users.
It took me about a minute to find the EQ I prefer and, with it enabled, the EX really shine. Bass is booming without being overbearing and bleeding into the mids. Highs are prominent yet not piercing, and vocals are clean. Everything about their audio quality is clean and defining. The EX use Bluetooth 5.2 and you can use each earbud independently. I haven’t had any skipping issues with my notebook, desktop, smartphone, tablet, or handheld console.
They have a wide sound stage for earbuds, wider than I would have thought. I can place instruments and vocals with audio reaching further away than other earbuds that tend to focus audio in the middle of your head. Still not as wide as open-backed headphones, but better than most.
Battery life is acceptable. B&O rates the EX for 6 hours of use with ANC and that fits in my experience. Turning ANC or transparency off results in better battery life (7-8 hours), but I’m fine with 6 hours. That’s the norm these days for true wireless earbud battery life.
Their case is small and made of the same aluminum as the earbuds. It features both USB-C and Qi charging. B&O’s companion app can tell you the battery percentage of the case and earbuds. It’s not as small as other earbuds from a fruit-labeled company, but it is smaller than most.
There are only two drawbacks with the EX that keep them from getting a perfect score from me: transparency and ANC. Transparency is just OK, not as good as earbuds from said fruit-labeled company. It’s serviceable, I just wish it were more natural sounding. Second, the ANC is on par with $100-$150 earbuds. It’s fine and, when music is playing, you won’t hear outside noise (these do get extremely loud). But, for their price, the ANC should be better.
Having said that, the Beoplay EX have become my daily drivers for a few reasons. First, their audio quality is better than every other pair of true wireless earbuds I’ve tried (over 15 different pairs at this point). Second, I can wear them for hours on end without comfort issues and they stay in. Third, their build quality is as good as their audio quality. I can deal with having subpar transparency and middling ANC if it means having a better fit and sound quality.
I highly recommend these for anyone wanting better sound quality out of their earbuds and are willing to have OK ANC.

A little bit expensive but if you wanna play you have to pay, One of the best headphones sets are probably ever owned Superb quality Awesome sound just overall OUTSTANDING.
MikeT –
I don’t normally leave reviews, but these ear buds deserve one. These are by far the best sounding ear buds I have used. Now when I say best sounding, I mean best quality over a wide range. They are very loud and the base is amazing. They also respond very well throughout a wide frequency range to deliver a really high quality immersive sound. Im definitely glad I purchased these.
HKing –
So far so good… I’ve been through a few premium earbuds, most of which my right earbud would malfunction within a few months, and so far these are holding on and playing strong. Excellent sound quality, battery life, and noise cancelation. My only con is they pick up a lot of background noise on phone calls.
Weeee –
Not good don’t buy them…… noise canceling is non existing sennheiser momentum 3 sound better with noise canceling……sound superior when in a quit environment with little to no noise at all…. Excellent for audio files and music lovers but in a suit setting only
Chris –
Sound quality is great but as far as that I should have returned when I could have .app is horribly slow works about a 1/4 of the time set my phone calls to anc and everycall I get it changes it’s frustrating Bluetooth will drop just with phone in my pocket too much buck not enough bang been threw 2 updates and still seems the same all I’m saying is their is definitely better and cheaper options out their unless ur gonna use these just for music definitely would not recommend
Summer –
Probably one of the best in ear headphones that I’ve ever used I’ve had Bose I’ve had Bowers & Wilkins and these by far the best ones I’ve tried out. Also the best sounding bass.
DnnG –
As far as sound goes (with a little help from the app equalizer), the best sounding earbuds I’ve ever had! They were extremely expensive, though…and the noise cancellation is good. Its not Bose-level noise cancellation (but who is?). If you have Apple Airpods Pro (2nd Generation) or Bose QC 2 earbuds and you have an iPhone, you are in good hands, though. No need to get these if you have two or either. I got them to experiment and it turned out way better than expected. I also use the Comply foam (medium sized) tips and they reassure my experience with these Bang earbuds. But note, only get these if you can afford them and it wont burden you. Like I said before, these are great but not worth going into pointless debt. No earbuds are worth that! Be responsible. But if you do get them…enjoy!!!
Harry –
Meh. sound is good. comfortable in the ear. Bluetooth is questionable. (Range is not great). I give it a 4 out of 5 only because I’m partial to the brand. its really a 3 out 5. (if range is important to you)
DCB4LIFE –
I bought is based off of other peoples reviews. I am definitely not impressed like everyone else’s. The controls on these headphones are the worst. You have to be really precise with where you touch to be able to play the song skip this song. Especially when you want to skip a song and have to touch the outside of the headphone more than one time. If you miss any of the area of the headphones the song will pause, and will have you sitting there waiting for it to play not knowing that its paused . It took me while just walking three or four times just to get it to skip a song because it kept pausing . I’ve tried several different headphones, and these are bar far the worst controlling ones I’ve used. The Apple iPods touch is way easier and doesn’t require you to have to touch the whole entire area of the outside of the headphone to do anything on it. Sound quality is good but not as good as I thought it was gonna be these are very expensive I would save my money by buying something cheaper.
Hugz4Nugz –
I love these headphones. They sound great and I enjoy everything about them. Highly recommend of your an audiophile.
Boom –
Not what i expected for $400. They might wokr better for someone elses ear type? The (anc) doesnt exist imo.
dcbehan –
Best sound of any true wireless earbuds out there. Lackluster ANC, broken connectivity when using two devices (tried multiple pairs, zero issues with other earphones). Useless support; asking same questions over and over, ignoring the very detailed replies.
Too expensive to be so problematic, not ready for prime time.
MattC –
Best sounding earbuds I’ve ever had and finally a pair that you can actually take a call on without cut outs and muffled voices. App is great too!
SaurabhD –
Osam products nice befry life superior sound quality
Nick –
Great sound , too bad the right ear bud on my pair plays at a lower volume now compared to the left. Extended warranty they offer is trash. 7-10 days without a set of 400 dollar ear buds. Then aft we r all that they say they are having delays because they switched vendors.
TheSniper23 –
I would not waste your money on these headphones. I recently ordered a pair to use while working out since they have the IP-57 rating. Straight out of the box they had connection issues. When riding my bike with my daughter they would not hold a solid connection. Not to mention for $399 headphones that are supposed to be high end, the sound quality was subpar at best. I would not waste your money on these.
Jimmie –
No good for anything, I have a problem with the pencil type buds staying in my ear so if you do, don’t waste your money. Horrible sound quality as well, people constantly complained they couldn’t hear me during phone conversations. The battery life is disgusting, I wear one at a time, the one bud lasted like 3 hours, not good enough for me.
Kevintrontaco –
These look high end and sound fantastic. Noise cancelling isn’t as strong as others but these work really well for me. Highly recommend.
JimmyS –
Love these bio ex ear buds they sound amazing batteries last long just the right fit for my ears
RonM –
Fit great with terrific sound. Easy to use with the quality you expect from B&O.
CodyB –
By far the best earbuds I’ve tried. A tad pricy. But it’s worth every penny
AdanV –
Hands down the best set of earbuds money can buy. The only downfall to these is the inability to search for them like AirPods do at a fraction of the cost.
Zach95 –
These are my go to eaebuds when lifting weights. The music remains clear even when straining myself.
GregL –
If they didntnfall out of ny ears all the time no matter what tips i use theyvwould be awesome! They have majore fitment issues for me.
lovexcraft –
So I have had these earbuds for about a month now and I can tell you where they are great and where they can improve.
The sound quality is by far the best I have heard in a earbud especially paired with a HiFi music provider like Deezer as an example. I could hear instruments and noises in songs I never heard before. They are amazing in sound quality but the built in equalizer in the app is alright nothing to brag about. If it irks you that much you can find a 3rd party equalizer as well and some music providers also have a equalizer.
The comfort in ear is pretty good and I haven’t had them fall out yet. They are pretty sturdy despite the glass because I have dropped them and no scratches!
Where these earbuds lack is in the Noise Cancellation. They are not the best for Noise Cancelling but they get the job somewhat done and I listen to my music loud anyways so I can’t hear anything. Bose Quiet Comfort II is the best in Noise Cancellation hands down.
Sound Quality: 9/10
Build: 9/10
Noise Cancellation: 6/10
Overall I give 8/10
I am more of an audiophile and don’t really care for the noise cancellation. I got these a bit cheaper with a reward and they were discounted a bit as well. Worth the money if you can afford but best paired with an android that runs a stronger Qualcomm chip and a music provider that has HiFi quality
TaniaZ –
Excellent product! The sound is exceptional. I’m glad I made this purchase.
minh –
Great sound quality TWS and comfortable wearing. However, the open design leaked too much and did not provide enough isolation for noise cancelation
OswaldoF –
The earbuds are the best ones i have ever got compared from the other ones ive owned
JohnB –
Crisp strong sound. Comfortable fit. I didn’t buy them for noise reduction so don’t really care about that
Andres –
Was looking forward to this headphones but didn’t find them to be as expected.
Lsquared –
Not worth the high price tag. The sound quality is great, but you can achieve the same quality at a lower price point. The ANC is sub-par which affects the sound quality from truly shining. Occasionally have an earbud drop connection. Recommend looking at competitors unless you’re really sold on the build and style.
