Overhyped? (Status Between 3ANC) RANKED Against 25 Earbuds

[@pickyaudio]

Thanks for watching! Something I want to add. When I spoke about the sound that is with ANC ON (this is just what I do in every review). With ANC OFF or Transparency on I prefer the sound. The bass and mids are fuller plus the treble is slightly less sibilant.

[@BJPerryJr]

Another great Picky review. I got my 3anc when they were first released & they're still my favorite in my collection, even over the MTW4. That's just my opinion. They're way more comfortable than I thought they'd be too

[@pickyaudio]

Cheers BJ! Yea the comfort really surprised me

[@BJPerryJr]

@pickyaudio they don't have the best ANC or transparency mode, but they both are usable and decent in my opinion but the sound quality is the catch. I can get whatever sound I'm wanting and crazy volume too. I easily recommend them personally. Besides all that, thanks for another great Picky review and keep up the good work 💯💪👍

[@pickyaudio]

@bjperryjr4664 Thanks man! Yea I agree, I filmed this video over a week ago but since then they’ve been my go to earbud for everything basically

[@reklovjj]

Well after trying all of them my pick is 3ANC and all the other ones were returned and zero regrets! You do not expand on things enough such as multipoint to make folks realize how easy it is to listen to 2 devices! No other device is as great as 3 ANC. I have mine for almost a year no issue whatsoever and in changing ear tips I broke the left one. Status sent me a new one for free no questions asked.

[@pickyaudio]

Basically every earbud today has multipoint. You can connect two devices to the earbuds. Some have takeover some don’t. Thats very important to some and not others

[@reklovjj]

@@pickyaudio just to say ANC 3 is the most responsive of all of them! To me it might not be better in “gizmoz” but does a decent job generally and incredible sound quality. And yes AZ80 is great yet not worth double the price compared to 3ANC. FYI my second best is Oneplus Buds 3 and that one got pretty much all gizmoz. So the two combined cost the same as an AZ80…

[@pickyaudio]

@reklovjj fair call! True it is very snappy

[@mikesmith5389]

I'm still using and loving my Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+ the passive noise reduction is better than any ANC earbuds I've tried and the sound is just wonderful, I forget I'm wearing them. They've now brought out the M100 as a replacement and I know you have to fork out to buy these buds but it would be mighty interesting to know how they stack up against the best, especially as they are not overly expensive.

[@pickyaudio]

I haven’t heard of them I’ll keep them in mind 👍

[@ibrahimdemircan2246]

Hi James, I just discovered your channel and I've been watching every single one of your videos. I'm really impressed with your reviews. I'd like to request a comparison video from you. Would you be able to do a comparison of the highest output headphones (115 decibels+)?

[@_-Z-]

Thank you for another awesome comparison, Picky! 👍

[@pickyaudio]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@mikeevans7381]

I'm hoping that Status will make more products. They're headphones are old and the earbuds have been around for a while hopefully they're not a one-hit wonder of the earbud world. Thanks for the review nice job. 💯🔥🔥🇺🇸

[@pickyaudio]

Cheers Mike, I’m all here for the Status takeover 🙌

[@rezzywiththebeats]

Thanks for the review! One question--do you know if you can have ANC entirely off during phone calls? You mentioned that whatever setting it is on before a call is what you'll get during a call, but unsure if you have ANC/transparency off before the call if it'll stay off? I ask because I've now run into trouble with both the Technics AZ80 and the Jabra Elite 10 Gen 2. Both of them have ANC on during phone calls and you can't turn it off completely. I get sick from ANC so need it off. BTW I did donate/purchase your spreadsheet. Very helpful!

[@CircuitBird]

I'm curious to know your opinion of the Bang & Olufen Beoplay EX earbuds. I have a pair and love them, but my complaint is that even though they're securely in your ears, they don't feel secure. I also think the ANC could've been better for B&O's £350 GBP price point.

[@redcolourbenzene7762]

I've been waiting for this! Thank you! Can you please comment on your pick between these and AZ80 please? And how do you rate the bass performance of az80 (specially in the Superbass preset) compared to other earbuds? Subbass of az80 too if possible please.

[@pickyaudio]

It’s really neck and neck. I’ve been using the 3ANC more often probably just cause they’re new. AZ80 is better overall and more sound options in the app. Superbass is a bit boomy you can get better sub bass on a pair like the sen Mom 4.

[@redcolourbenzene7762]

​​@@pickyaudio I have the AZ80 and momentum 4s with me rn, I can't quite figure out the eq I like on them, even after the sound personalisation.. I think I'm leaning towards keeping the az80, just trying to hear some others opinions too! In your opinion what would I be missing out on if I choose the AZ80 over the momentums?

[@georgenorthcutt6774]

Those are nice, but Is it bad that I’m wanting to buy IEMs instead? I’ve had the Shure se215 but I gave them to my church band. I currently use the FiiO BTR3K for the Bluetooth audio.

[@saucyjack6444]

Hey, thank you for some throughly great content, i recently lost one of my beats earbuds so im looking to get a know pair. Have you tested out the Skullcandy Rail ANC? im inbetween those and the new Nothing Ear

[@vaticregok479]

I have the Skullcandy Rail ANC and am very dissatisfied. I will be looking at getting the 3ANC.

[@TheMattsjeepsrt8]

I've had 3 pairs of skullcandy earbuds and all 3 pairs had issues after some time. Get either the 3anc or sony xm5

[@MrXrisd01]

What would be the best earbuds to use specifically for Chatgpt besides the Nothing buds?

[@mailriddler]

Can you also review and compare Master and Dynamics MW09? I feel they are one of the best buds out in the market.

[@davidesammarco8717]

Hi man, thanks for videos are very good for entertiment ✌🏻. At the moment i’m looking for a quality-prize earbuds for my samsung phone and i noticed that you never mentioned the Buds 2 Pro, respect for the range 100€/150€ are they not a good choice? I have also watched a italian guy that mentioned the customization’s app for Nothing Ear, it would be possible to have a ranked video with “Ecosystem brand integrations”? Thanks for listening

[@FFMEHEDI99]

JBL tune 230 nc vs JBL reflect mini nc....Which one will be the best please replay please❤

[@3oriigingaming]

How's your Sennheiser MTW4 performing? Any issues so far?

[@infamousX]

I have Soundpeats Engine 4 and Opera 5. Is it worth getting AZ80 ? Because they are quite expensive. All I care about is sound quality and good fit so I can use them while working out. I dont care about ANC and other features.

[@pickyaudio]

It’s not a massive leap in audio quality but when it comes to fit they’re much better for me. The AZ80 have been one of my go to training earbuds because of the fit and sound

[@JosueACastillo619]

Have you done a review on the master n dynamics earbuds?

[@ilkerustunn]

i was waiting status between 3anc finally :)

[@chakibharbibi8877]

Who is the best between nothing ear a and one plus buds 3

[@chaddwarika5171]

How is it compared to the tune buds bass wise??

[@jesusdudebamadude5559]

Wait so your supposed to on the wings and the ear tips?

[@randomguy1612]

Yes Im thinking of getting them, when they go cheaper

[@pickyaudio]

👍👍

[@pimpster341]

Now might the time they are 179$ on Amazon thinking about pulling the trigger myself on a pair of these to replace my Gen 1 Apple AP Pro’s

[@andredobbs5390]

They are 159 right now until Sept 2

[@DangaWaT]

I love these earbuds. Best iv tried by far.

Finally. Been waiting for this @picky👍👍👍

[@sithumnethsara111]

guys, what is the best QCY earbud in your opinion?

[@pickyaudio]

Melobuds or HT05 are the best I’ve tested

[@mingyang5558]

Strange. You usually have your personal scores after each category, but not this one. What did you get for the call quality and sound quality for this bud, if you don’t mind me asking. TY!

[@pickyaudio]

Yea It’s tough when there are close to 30 earbuds now on the Ranking. I still need still mention the score in the 3ANC for each category.

[@mingyang5558]

@@pickyaudio. No worries. I went and downloaded your custom score and found the probable best buds for my needs as call quality, for me was just a teeny bit more important to me: Nothing Ear (2024). TY!

[@danielcastillo4962]

The Volume level on the AZ-80, is really that bad at the point you don’t enjoy music because you need to add an extra punch? I read a lot of reviews, some say there are loud enough and some say they’re not.

[@6982chad]

Ive got the az80 and i got them because of all the great reviews, and although i do like them i was Dissapointed, i like my music loud, and theyre just not. Theyre super comfortable and do sound good and the noise canceling works good. But the galaxy buds pro 2 i returned i thought actually sounded better and had more features they just didnt fit well at all. At this point Ive jusy basicly accepted that im not gonna find a set that are actually loud and just make due with what ive got. 🤷‍♂️

[@andrewmcmillan7015]

Honestly. Honestly. I do not comment on KZbin videos, but I had to just to for this video. Straight to business at the start. Delivered something that me completely double guess my opinion on the product, all without your take or thoughts. Then you hit with the details and thoughts to inform me and provide your review. Keep doing what you’re doing the way you’re doing it. I GENUINELY have not commented on a KZbin video since I was like 15.

[@JoePolice]

I still love my soundpeats opera 05 great sounding affordable price i just can't spend on those expensive buds.

[@pickyaudio]

I revisited them to compare to the 3ANC and I agree the sound is solid.

Guys, what do you think, should I buy Liberty 4 NC during this period or will the company update the version because it updates a lot of new items?

[@zubair1149]

Depends on your patience and budget. Usually when the new one releases, they would tend to price it higher than the old one anyway. I'd say buy the Liberty 4 NC unless your budget can handle the higher cost of the upcoming one

[@MML66]

@@zubair1149 Thank you for your response and help. What matters to me more than money is time, because I will buy it in two months, and I don’t know if they will launch a new generation, and what matters most to me is improving the ANC.

I don’t think they’re the best far from it lmao smh ugh 😑!

Best sound at their price yes. Best overall definitely not
