Is BASS Enough? (SoundPEATS Air4 & Air4 Lite) vs Air3 vs Air3 Deluxe HS

[@thefirstrangers]

The call quality on the Air 4s sound a little odd. Air 3 deluxe and air 4 lite, are pretty comparable which is interesting

[@jortuspelatus7364]

Finally the Air4 coverage I waited for! I was pleasantly suprised on the Air4 Lite's mic quality, an upgrade over the Deluxe HS I'm currently rocking while the Air4 sounded too bassy and a bit garbled. I think you should follow up your sound test of the Air4 with a device that supports AptX Lossless, if you could secure one in the future.

[@pickyaudio]

Nice! Yea I don't think it will make a massive difference but would be cool to try out

[@karimgeniokarim-genio5086]

are you sure the 4 lite is better than hs deluxe for CALLS ? they seem identical in this test....but as you have both would you please confirm if indoor and outdoor what is better ?! any detailed input is appreciated !

[@haiducchu]

That wouldn't be necessary. I only detect a small change in sound detail between SBC and LDAC. Sound signature is still exactly the same

[@mike_t_007]

​@@haiducchuDepends on what you're listening to. LDAC comes on handy with hifi audio like music from Tidal and FLAC files

[@saifsham]

Which one is the best for calling, considering cellular calls and internet (WhatsApp or messenger) calls, among Deluxe HS or Air4 or Air4 lite ??

[@leedaq7767]

damm air 3 delux HS call quality is the best

[@junesebastian392]

my air4 got mic problem, the other line can't hear me, blurred and distorted.

[@WVMUSIC_NL]

Hm interesting! I have the air 3 deluxe hs which have the best sound quality I ever experienced on earbuds but I thought the air 4 would have noise cancellation but apparently they don’t have it…. Now I already like my bass a lot on the air 3 deluxe hdr but I don’t want to loose the treble and highs either. So I don’t know if I would like to upgrade. Though I like the bass of the AirPods 3 a lot! But I think those are too expensive.

[@mike_t_007]

Definitely agree 👍🏾 SoundPetes tuned these perfectly. They compare to the Airpods Pro 2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmK9ZXmjoqaorrcfeature=shared

[@Blu3_777]

The Air 4 is probably like my Samsung Galaxy buds live which is also an open style earbud, so with the anc on it don't block to much noise (some) but does increase the sound and hugely increases the bass. For that reason The lives have become my favorite earbuds for the fact I can hear my surroundings and still and a party in my ears. Could these be a similar experience? Do the get loud enough with anc on?

[@pickyaudio]

I have tested the buds live ANC and they did block out some noise. They're a solid semi in ear bud!

[@gtbigdog3507]

I bought the Air 4 and was excited. Unfortunately the phone calls are terrible. What use is dual connect if you can’t talk on the phone

[@pickyaudio]

Yea interesting to see that the air4 lite has the better call quality. This could be due to the different chips

[@WVMUSIC_NL]

Can I download your eq settings for the air 3 deluxe hs? I wonder if you have those?

[@RedPanda_00806]

is the AIR4 lite exactly the same measures than the standard Air 3 ?? I can't find it on the website.

[@francischiew7080]

what all this chinese made earphones is seriously lacking in their own sound technology unlike the like of jbl senheiser or sony each of them have their own technology through decades of research/actual product / refinement. what this chinese company is using snapdragon tech. the overall package is not harmonious nor properly thought out

[@iLKA_2404]

When will the Air 4 Pro be released? Air 3 Pro is on sale now in my country so kinda undecided whether to wait for Air 4 Pro or buy Air 3 Pro

[@kristinahernandez866]

Hi having problems with the 3 and one side of working n the other one is not help.. happen to no how to fix? It did say 10 percent battery low I had it charging for 2 days and nothing.. the left one said 100 percent n the right now nothing thanks

[@TheBioversion]

No-one is actually noting that the Air 4s have 13mm membrane compared 10 14.2mm of Air 3? The sound quality should be distinctively worse in bass area!?

[@pickyaudio]

The driver size does not always determine the sound

[@bubbleytea]

Have you tried the amazon echo buds gen 3 that are also half in ear? Curious to know your thoughts on how those compare to the air4.

[@rurouniYT]

Been waiting for this one. Love my semi in ear ear buds. Bought the Truefree T3 as a holdout pair to replace my failed SoundPeats TrueAir 2 (dead battery on left bud). From your review though, they may have to hold me out until the TrueAir 5s 😂

[@pickyaudio]

[@aktaruzzamanaktar2981]

Will you please suggest me which one is better (capsule 3 Pro / Air 4)?

[@karimgeniokarim-genio5086]

capsule 3 pro is ahed...just look at other review on YT !!!!!

[@MacgyverFreitas]

I wanted to know what the latency is like using the LC3 codec, since lower latency is one of the promises, and also what impact it has on battery life using LE Audio with LC3. Currently the only headset I've seen that supports it is the Soundpeats Air 4, and the device has to have Snapdragon 888 or higher. I couldn't find any information about Apple or Exynos, but recent generations should have support

[@chenpopkaewlar7857]

What is the difference between soundpeats air 4 pro and soundpeats capsule 3 pro and which one should I choose?

[@QuietLionGaming]

Been waiting for this one! Thanks, brother 💪🎧 The AirPods 3 did not fit my ears well, so I will most likely skip on these. I’ll keep my Air3s for now.

[@pickyaudio]

No worries bro!

[@martinmilan156]

As a first timer on earbuds (since I only use beats solo pro which stresses me out), what will happen if I use the LDAC one on my apple products? Thanks!

[@miloufrance]

For me personally, I'm not very interested in active noise cancellation. The technology itself has altered the expressive qualities of some music, so I opted for the Air4 Lite. However, if I were to choose again, I might go for the Air3. Upon closer examination of the headphone drivers, the Air3 boasts a larger size. I don't doubt the Air4 Lite's analytical capabilities, but do you really enjoy headphones that emphasize only analytical prowess? It's not the sound profile I prefer; the sound tends to be relatively sharp, and without EQ intervention, it can be quite unbearable. Not to mention the bass, where it's challenging to appreciate the impact, and the midrange is overly pronounced. Overall, it lacks that warm feeling and is prone to auditory fatigue. Additionally, the headphones have some inherent background noise. Perhaps not something you'll hear frequently, but it does exist. If not intervened by EQ adjustments, the Air4 Lite is essentially unusable for me, at least that's how it appears. I've tried it with two Android phones and an iPhone. The best experience was on the LG G7, but keep in mind that I had already enabled the bass boost and made adjustments within the app. Additionally, I made similar adjustments to the phone's built-in EQ and finally fine-tuned the EQ in Spotify to achieve a relatively better result. On the iPhone, the performance was mediocre. The issue is not with clarity but primarily lies in the weak bass, overall dry sound, and piercing midrange.

[@imonutiy]

How would you compare Air 4 base with NO ANC vs Air 3 base. Air 3 sound ideal for me but battery does not last one session for me, so using ANC all the time is not an option.

Your channel has become my go-to reference before purchasing earbuds. The reviews you provide consistently align with my experiences. The way you rank open-air earbuds based on fit and experience resonates with me, as I own nearly all the models you've discussed. I trust your evaluations and will depend on your advice for my this purchase decision.

[@immiteshk]

Cannot agree more regarding the anc mode on air 4. Without anc mode they sound very bad.

[@HungryMan-t1h]

i am hard bass lover please suggestion soundpeats air4 pro VS fiil cc pro????? 😢😢😢

[@nivinhanna]

Agree with this after having tried the Air 4 and returning them. I felt the extra bass, at least for me, wasn't enough to displace my Air3 HS, as the HS did everything else better. I also found the Air4 had quite a bit of hiss and random circuitry related noises with noise cancelling on. I also experienced some random bluetooth disconnects. One thing they did do better is feel a little more comfy in my ear compared to the HS.

[@dalecabanlong7551]

I just bought a brand new air 3 deluxe hs yesterday, im kinda regretting my decision because i think air 4 is better. What do you think has the best sound quality overall, the deluxe hs or the air 4?

[@chanwingcheung6610]

Thank you so much for the review, I have a question about call quality. I really need the call quality and I think Air 4 Lite sounds more natural than Air 4. Is it because you turn the noise canceling on in Air 4? Will the Air 4 voice sound the same as the Air 4 Lite when you turn off the noise canceling? I am using Air 3 now. Too many complaints. Thank you.

May I suggest the classical music eq in combination with the anc on? It won’t make them perfect but bring the treble and mids out pretty nice. I just got my hand on a pair of these the other day, I think they’re low key the best gaming buds atm. I grabbed them for my rog ally, the white matches the ally perfect, latency is super low and the semi-in ear design makes them incredibly comfortable for long wear

The air 3 deluxe hs seems quite adequate in terms of overall sound quality and bass. On the other hand, I want to switch to a higher model, but air 4 does not support ldac, instead there is snapdragon aptx, but I do not know if this will replace hs 3, I am also a bass liked.air4 lite also has ldac support, but the bass is probably the worst among these 3 models.Which one do you think I should buy among the air3 delux hs air4 air 4 lite?

I bought these just because my phone has aptx lossless and there are so few lossless earbuds and Bose still hasn't hasn't given the QC2'S the lossless they promised, which was 50% of the reason i got them. I haven't used a semi in earbud in years, it's a nice change

[@redi6]

Just got the air4, great review by the way. with anc on (which is a must) they are great. however, there is one thing that's bothering me. with anc on, in the right ear, i can hear what sounds like a low level wind noise. with anc on and nothing playing, i can hear this noise, but even when i'm listening to podcasts, i can still hear it. i've tried flipping the earbuds (in case it was an issue with my ear) and it's for sure just the right bud. have you noticed any sound like this with anc on?

The Air3 mic comparison didn't seem honest here. In fact, in your previous videos you showed them clearly with higher volume. And when we forget the volume and look only at the noise reduction, it's clear the Air3 does the same good noise reduction. So it seems the low volume is placed there on purpose to make the Air3 look bad. Not honest. It has disappointed me.

Those buds are second to none. Sure airpods 2 pro sound better someone might argue, havent heard airpods 2 pro so cant say that for certain but its hard to imagine for me a bud sounding much better than these, and even if other buds can for 5 hours not good enough for me.
