Edifier NeoBuds Pro 2 : Competitor For Earbuds Of The Year!

[@TheBigKing0]

That mic test was so impressive I’m convinced you accidentally uploaded the camera audio

[@lookin4talentt]

I know.. I have the neobud S and even they don't sound as good

[@loconius]

For real!!! Those mics were crazy!!

[@ELJefeReviews]

Good to see you got your hands on these early!

[@OfficialGamesky]

Yessir, did you?

[@ELJefeReviews]

@@OfficialGamesky Sadly no. Edifier among other brands have forgotten about me. I'll be ordering a pair with your link.

[@devaditya449]

@@OfficialGamesky please help. i bought the chinese variant and the audio notification language is in chinese. is it possible to switch it to english?

[@MazzEffect7]

That battery life and lack of wireless charging is a dealbreaker for me, but man oh man, that mic quality is insanely good! 😲

[@stkyfngrszmooth]

Me too. What a bummer that Edifier seemed to just kinda warm over the originals instead of putting out something brand new.

[@kbalaz]

My NeoBuds Pro 2 are on their way. I have the first gen and hands down best earbuds I have ever tried. Phone calls are insanely clear, that sub bass feeling is crazy. Battery life doesn't matter to me much as I'm not walking around with these in my head all day. 90 minutes at the gym while I am working out leaves me with 75-80% battery life left with high noise cancellation on and ldac turned on. If you aren't plugged in all day long and 4-5 hours battery is good enough for you, you won't be disappointed in these that is for sure.

[@andersjacobsen2267]

Hi I have the first gen and considering these for the spatial audio for music. Do you know if you can listen to spatial audio WITHOUT the headtracking? Also, how does the sound compare to the first gen?

[@kbalaz]

@@andersjacobsen2267I don't use the head tracking, find it weird. Sound wise, very similar, slight edge top end to second gen. Noise cancellation is better 2nd gen. Only drawback is battery life. I get maybe 2 hours, which isn't a deal breaker for the majority of what I use them for.

[@steffenneuhaus3397]

The microphone attachment is really from the buds? Raw? I can't imagine that. The sound quality is perfect. And no one has ever been able to do that. That can't be right

[@Bawkzers]

I just watched 2 other reviews of these buds and the mic quality didn't match. The mic quality samples on the other 2 ones sounded like standard ear bud calls. Not sure what Gamesky did to get that clear of a sample.

[@Garythefireman66]

The mediocre battery life is my biggest issue with these. The mics sound insane. Like top tier. I would have gladly taken a little more size on the buds if it meant better battery life

[@anthonytaylor4720]

Who else was instantly uninterested once they heard the battery life 🤔

[@MentalMoor]

Please bring back the usual noise testing with pub noise playing on your laptop. But the microphone sounds ridiculously good!

[@mohammedaiyaad4546]

i own the black color of neo buds pro 2 , its works great so far . The main deal breaker is that its poor battery life... great anc , equalizer is a bit complicated but good enough, its pretty good for morning walk and jogging since it fits really really well... The case and buds are plastic built but it gives that premium sony vibe ... the app is optimized now ... so far i am happy with this product .. microphone for receiving call is magnificent... That's all ❤

[@kandi215]

Awesome review, like always, but I like how you brought us into your world and did the mic test outside. As a long time listener, this was a pleasant surprise! Keep making content, because some of your fans can’t wait to see what you present!

[@ddeliyski]

I just upgraded from the first version. Initially I copied my settings and used LDAC plus custom EQ. Sound on the PRO 2 was lacking bass. The old ones felt like subwoofers inside my head. Only after your video I tried the Dynamic mode and the bass on the version 2 came through 😁 Thanks for the video!

[@DestroF777]

How much better would you say it is compared to the first one ? I own the first ones now for nearly 2 years and I am looking for an upgrade. Is it worth it ? Especially if you consider the Anker Soundcore options available

[@ddeliyski]

@@DestroF777 I am still trying to get the best our of them. It's really important what are you feeding them, where the signal is coming from. They sound better with my old Huawei p30 pro which has dolby atmos and factory 10 band EQ. Make sure your device supports one of the better codes - LDAC etc. On the whole the new one sound more open and clear with very high highs and bass doesn't go as low as the old version. You should try them 👍

[@DestroF777]

@ddeliyski I wish I could try them, unfortunately they are not very big here in South Africa where I am from. Did you look at the Sony XM4's ?

[@ddeliyski]

@@DestroF777 I'm thinking about the Sony xm5 actually...

[@fiddlix]

The battery life is a no go for me. Does it do multipoint..?

[@andersjacobsen2267]

Hi great video! Im a fan of spatial audio, but not the headtracking. Can the headtracking but turned OFF when using the spatial audio?

[@misusatriyo]

Is the battery life better than the previous neobuds?

[@petermurage8685]

Great review,Gamesky. What do you think of the jabra elite8 active. I feel they are a better purchase decision than these

[@Advisorblogger]

It sounds interesting. I can see it getting into the buds of year competition. I am currently in my liberty 4nc. Dope vid

[@afincongcingboy]

Do you chage to neobuds pro2? How's it compared to l4nc? I'm in l4nc also considering to switch..

[@mikeevans7381]

There's no single tap or press and hold on the controls how can you control everything? Thanks for the review. Call quality was really good. 💯👍🇺🇸

[@OfficialGamesky]

Use the smart sensors for play/pause

[@douchebaggins7]

Yes that will work but I don't want to take one out every time. Literally almost every other bud has 3 and 4 tap options. 2 in this day and age is just unacceptable in my opinion.

[@jimmydeneus7109]

Is it worth the money 🙏🙏💯💯

[@mojolafakeye6488]

Wonder if the sound is more detailed than the soundpeats opera 05

[@IsraelMagalit]

Those are the best sounding mics I've ever heard in BT earbuds

[@drbijubkp]

Hi Im torn between the call quality of this one and nothing ear 2. Could you please help me out. I ride a bike with a helmet on. I need a good earbud for calls good anc in a noisy and windy environment for android. Thank you. Grest videos. Big fan. The mic quality on these buds was phenomenal. Are they for real

Sir seems like no rating today scale of 1 to 10 for rock hiphop easy listening?😊

[@Paul.D1983]

[@Smykonis]

I like your tests. They are so interesting. Great job. Best channel with earbuds reviews.

[@richardmontoya3449]

Just received mine and these buds are really high quality the volume doesn’t get very loud though

[@andiegich]

I would have purchased it but mention that the battery life is less than 4.5 hrs when ANC is on is a BIG No for me.

[@roguegorilla8981]

The real question is are they any different sound wise than the Neobuds S? I would assume they used the samw driver set up.

[@Agenthoneydew33]

That mic test was crazy

[@DeneF]

Thanks for making the video.

[@ohno1one]

Can you turn transparency mode on while using only one bud?

[@andrea5101]

Edifier NeoBuds Pro 2 vs. SoundPeats Opera 05 vs. Soundcore Liberty 4 NC... It seems that the Opera 05 has the best sound quality, but the NeoBuds Pro 2 are on the same level. The Liberty 4NC has the best features, but the NeoBuds Pro 2 are right behind except for battery life. So, are Edifier the ones to choose? And what if I can buy Liberty 4NC or Opera 05 for 70$ and Edifier for 110$? How things will change?

[@ChristianCalero-z4w]

I was in the same situation, it is complicated, but in the end I ended up deciding on the liberty 4nc for all its features at the lowest possible price, they have wireless charging and a greater number of functions above its competition, I can say that they have good sound mainly In bass and within the app with the equalizer you get even better sound quality, with a broader sound stage, strong and clear voices, greetings.

[@andrea5101]

@@ChristianCalero-z4w I've done the same reasoning

[@fabiyeah]

i think these have the best mic quality i've heard in any of your test videos

[@CHEIF_L97]

Can I use ambient/Transparency on single earbud use

[@marchervais1269]

By the way, what about starting to test smartwatches. I am 68, not really a sportsman, and I am searching a health watch, because I would like to be informed if I am about to make a stroke. I know that the best one is apple but I am allergic to the apple world, and also they have a very bad autonomy. This being said, with the competition I am really lost. Some advertise features that don't work properly, some advertise features that don't work in ce, some request in addition to the price of the watch the registration to a paying service with the phone app. I already bought one that looked very good on the paper, but I returned it, because the results was completely incredible. You want to enlarge your activity... This is a good branch for someone serious

[@marchervais1269]

I just bought them for 85€ on aliexpress for 11-11 promo. i hope they are not with the app in chinese, and thay are half as good as what you said, because i am very satisfied with my realme buds air 5 pro. I don't really need them i just couldn't resist to the price. hope that the ANC is as good as you say, because this is the only flaw of my other earbuds. the ANC is not perfect

[@neoniccortessjrsmith9223]

Such low battery makes them a big No no

[@zygote8888]

[@igorcicimov6234]

Did I miss the multipoint part of the video??

[@douchebaggins7]

Yes, cause they don't have it. The negatives outway the positives on these, especially for the price.

[@igorcicimov6234]

Yeah, it's almost 2024 and multipoint is basically a standard especially if you have a pro in the name of the product. Even Bose had to learn that the hard way after all the criticism they coped for the absence of one. It is a feature that everyone can benefit from not like the high res that depends on the phone you have or music services you have subscribed to.

[@dennischow7784]

The microphone doesn't completely block out the noise on the street, but man, the mic sounds incredibly natural and close. Absolutely loving it!

[@iago.bertoldi]

Hello, I purchased one, and I have noticed that one of the headphones is draining the battery faster than the other, have you noticed anything with yours?

[@PetrOsetr]

This is how it works man. Right one will drain faster if i remember correctly

[@petermurage8685]

Only thing I hated with the original Neobuds pro was the battery life.

[@douchebaggins7]

Then you'll hate these as well.

[@sheahill6628]

Excellent video review.

[@tmb3131]

Just bought these and the battery life with ANC OFF and no LDAC (iphone) was LESS than 2 hours. Battery drain for the right bud was significantly higher with a contrast of 1% to 37% remaining and end of each cycle. CASE charging used 47% of capacity for 1 charge. ZERO customer service so far.

[@armaanmodi]

The mics are great !!!

[@kingsber325]

god dam these ear buds seem fire 🔥

[@stkyfngrszmooth]

Since I already have the original Neobuds Pro, the crappy battery life, controls, and no multipoint are all deal breakers for me. If Edifier brought something entirely new and different to the table, that would be one thing, but since these seem to be nothing but a warmed over version of the originals, I'll pass thanks. However, the review was awesome, as always, so huge props to the Gamester.

[@bradwhalen2000]

Do you have a $100 alternative?

[@stkyfngrszmooth]

@@bradwhalen2000 Do you mean like the Liberty 4 NC?

[@vermilion6966]

Idk, had neobuds pro (1 not 2) not only left ear died after 10 days of use, they also had meh sound. realme air 3 had better sound... its actually stupid. ANC is strong, yes. But because its quite agressive they create a vacuum feeling and distort the sound both - the sound of the song and the sounds inside comparing to more 'budget' buds. However passive NC is veeery good. Like. Real good.

[@gavinrussell8891]

The Neo Buds Pro had very poor bass so I am surprised to hear that the Pro 2 has some of the best bass on the market?

[@malcontent_1]

The real world mic test was way more informative than the "crowd noise" in studio (I never hear the noise "which you can hear here"). Shame about battery life.

[@prometheusxc]

Miserable battery life and the same control scheme from Edifier (only double and triple tap? what?) make these an easy pass. They tune their earbuds well and give you solid ANC but miss on a LOT otherwise. No multipoint or wireless charging either.

[@douchebaggins7]

Totally agree. I got these for free, would never pay for them. I mean 2 tap control per bud is just plain dumb these days. They do sound good but the negatives kill them.

[@outermarker5801]

Seen multiple reviews now and none of them have call quality this good. Are you sure you haven't mistakenly used the camera mic audio? Anyway, as others have said, battery that low in this day and age is a dealbreaker for me too. And batteries degrade. Finally very few mention it but that bloated, permission hungry app is also a turn off. Edifier is quickly becoming a no go brand for me.

[@Megatron-sl5us]

Man, the battery life is extremely poor. I dislike earbuds that have five hours or less. Especially if you have to turn on ANC or use higher codecs.

[@marymadigan9707]

Have the first one nice review 😎🇨🇮

[@fastrack2170]

That Mic quality almost sounds fake! Impressive lol

[@rommrafael]

is there a way to set noise cancelling to off by default

[@CB-dy2pc]

I have these and whilst good they are nothing special they need tweaking in the app to sound good, I also have the Marshall Major Motif 2 that just came out and they absolutely blow these out of the water however they are 50quid more but as well as they sounding tons better with way more clarity and loudness they also have wireless charging and look better that's an extra 50 quid well spent imo, I primarily listen to rock

Here's the short version. 1.sound quality is pretty good. 2 cool charge case. 3 very light and conformable. The noise reduction options and call quality are pretty good but will drain the crappy battery even more. That being said. No wireless charger. Battery life is pretty bad. My right goes to 10% in about 4 hours while left is 45%. Only two tap control options per bud is horrible, so I'm not sure what you mean by "control everything." The app only gives you two and three tap options. Very mixed bag for me. Great review by the way.
