Technics EAH-AZ80 - (IMPRESSION + AirPods Pro 2 COMPARISSION)

[@Daudgrzh]

I love that these reviews are short and straight to point without all the fluff

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Knew there was a niche for direct format reviews, thanks for the support 👍🏽

[@H081]

Was contently enjoying your review and became astonished when I saw the view/subscriber count on such a well made and polished video. Thank you for your review and keep up the hard work bro, can’t see you not blowing up with the quality that’s there 👌

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Much appreciated!

[@xboxseriesxgameon2014]

I have a pair and I love them . I had a pair of the bose 2 sent them back

[@Fredo.heavyy]

You made the right decision

[@batdroid2705]

They are fantastic earbuds. I have been using them for a couple of months. Highly recommended

[@yusuff7_]

Which color should I go for?? 😂 the silver ones look great tbh. Which one you got?

[@mrlyles2002able]

I have the AZ70's, the original AZ60's and ordered the AZ80's on Black Friday deal $80 off. I been hooked since the first pair. The Technics sound signature is perfect.

[@8a8i8]

On your point of ip rating. A month ago, I forgot to take them out of my work pants pocket, and it went thru the washing machine. I let them dry out for a few days, and they work just like they did before they went in the wash. I do not recommend anyone trying it for themselves, but it might help reassure you on that ip rating. Who knows, tho? I coulda just been lucky. 🤷🏻‍♂️😆

[@Gloryandhonor1573]

Had my mind set on the Jabra Elite 10 basically because of the great reviews on comfort, i use my buds literally all day in the office, for long time comfort, what's the best choice between the Jabra Elite 10 and of the AZ80?

[@Fredo.heavyy]

AZ80 hands down the better bud at this top tier price point, returning the Jabra Elite 10 RN

[@princesofthepower3690]

@@Fredo.heavyy​​⁠disagree AZ-80 just lack the well rounded balance of the Jabra 10 Elite in terms of sound quality, ANC, fit and comfort as well as battery life and call quality. Especially when you consider you are already spending significantly more money compared to a Jabra 10 Elite. It just don’t really hold up cost/quality wise compared to the Jabras or even One Plus and Nothing Ears imho.

[@davidgoncalves5588]

@@princesofthepower3690 So you are saying that the new Jabra Elite 10 second version are really really better than the Technics?

[@trmzerozeroum]

I'm liking very much your videos man! Congrats and Keep going! One idea, if possible, bring a video about the Denon PerL Pro. It will be awesome

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Haven’t looked into those honestly but let’s see what happens in 2024

Great video

Thank you Fredo now off to buy them

[@TheBigKing0]

Everyone who review these sing their praises. I just might have to invest

[@Fredo.heavyy]

BH has a used pair in black for $200. Might be worth picking up.

@@Fredo.heavyy I’ll keep an eye out! Good stuff btw!

[@jacobynguyen7424]

i couldn't find your videos when doing active activities, I'm trying to find a running earbuds. trying to choose between the sennheiser momentum sports or AZ80 if it stays in the ears while running sprints or jogging. let me know. keep up the great videos.

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Ive put up more miles with the AZ80 than the Momentum sports. Momentum sports wings suck but you can take them off, controls are little annoying. Both fit comfortably for running, sprints and jogging. So if you like Sennheiser sound go with their momentum sports.

[@user-vw7um9vv5p]

Just got mine yesterday, not bad but definitley not loud enough which makes them redundant straight out of the box.

[@ahamedasim3598]

How good its is campared to Jabra Elite 10, Like Soundstage , Bass , Comfort!

[@Yarin.D]

They sound like a really good product... but if they are not sold in my country, should I order them from eBay (without warranty) or go for an alternative like the Sony mx5?

[@BJPerryJr]

I'm gonna have to eventually grab a pair. I almost got last year's but didn't bcuz of mixed reviews, but I think I'm going for it this year. How's the sound quality, including volume compared to the AirPods or the Bose?

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Sound quality is great, aware mode is phenomenal, volume gets nice and loud but no distortion, multipoint is seamless, fit and comfort is amazing. Spend your money on these AZ80 or if your on a budget the Tozo Golden X1 (these pack better IP raining and all same features) Avoid Bose QC2 & Ultra for poor anc, bad connection and buggy up, also lack of firmware updates.

[@amijoe1408]

​@@Fredo.heavyyfor sound wise is tozo x1 n az80 comparable?plus is it reliable for the price bcoz i didnt wanna pay for less than a year of usage before it will suddenly broke like qc bose 2

[@Fredo.heavyy]

I've had the Tozo for 4 months? build quality no issue, I've dropped them and the case serval time. Sound quality is better than AZ80 because more EQ control. Never had connection issue, battery life is good, multipoint works great. You want have any issue like Bose. @@amijoe1408

[@jantonio8611]

Hello Fredo! I really love your reviews, specially because you use your buds for sports! Being that said, I was wondering if this earbuds are recommended for sports? Specifically for running and lifting weights. I've just returned Sony's WF-1000XM5 as they have several sound cuts and also they hurt my ears after some minutes of use. Please could help me with your comments based in your experience? Regards!

[@Fredo.heavyy]

I also have issue with my XM5 but I use them still with these tips: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g52Vf5mcrJyCpbMsi=bJW3vkU239mQWxnf The AZ80 perform very well for running and working out.

[@jantonio8611]

Thanks for your comments, Fredo!!! Kind regards!!!

[@attilab.2818]

Is there any way to figure out which device is connected to and streaming from? The app seems to be quite dumb in this regard. Unfortunately on Android (Samsungs) you have to pause the audio on the current device first, otherwise it won't let me to play on the other device. Also, would be nice to have an option to see a list of the paired devices and easily manage/connect/disconnect/delete them. Can't understand why this basic feature is missing in the app. Question about the Ambient mode: There are a 'Transparency' and an 'Attention' setting. Is the latter supposed to amplify the voices but still block out the surroundings? Mine doesn't work like that in Attention mode. It does amplify everything, not just the voices. Is it a faulty unit or yours are the same? Thank you

[@Aefc85]

Hi great video and review i am thinking of getting these in the uk there currently on sale for £219 do they go loud enough many people saying they are not loud of enough thanx in advance 🤙

[@Fredo.heavyy]

@@Aefc85 yes it’s true the AZ80 don’t have a crazy high max volume if you AB test them against other buds. They do burn in over time and have great sound / clarity, so you don’t need super loud buds to over compensate.

[@Aefc85]

@@Fredo.heavyy really appreciate your reply 🙏 so in your opinion if you had to pick 1 would you go bose quietcomfort ultra technics az80 or sennheiser momentum 4 such a hard choice thanx again 👍

[@mateocayodelgado4841]

I was thinking buying the xm5, but damn, these look really good. Which one do you recommend the most? I care about sound quality, but especially noise cancellation and battery. Incredible video brother, I met you through the Bose QC Ultra video, good luck on your next vids!

[@Fredo.heavyy]

The XM5 didn’t give me a great seal or fit, many others reported this and conclusion that ANC isn’t much better than XM4. AZ80 take the W for me, hands down no competition. Also their transparency mode is god tier.

[@Druufus]

Are they worth it over the AirPods feature-wise? I’ve never owned either, and I own an iPhone. I’ve been told the AZ60M2s are great, but I don’t want to miss out on better ease of use with my primary device.

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Depends. If you want to enter the world of “high” end great sounding earbuds. Or you want the convenience of the Apple ecosystem device switching.

[@Druufus]

@@Fredo.heavyy to be honest, I’m not going to be listening to music with them anywhere near as often as I will be watching shows and KZbin, so the higher sound quality would be nice but not crazily needed. I’m really trying to figure out if the AirPods have any features that I would actually greatly benefit from.

[@attilab.2818]

Are you not experiencing any uneven battery drain and/or charging issues? The right earbud always drains faster than the left while using them. Also, if the case has gone flat, it starts draining the earbuds.

[@Fredo.heavyy]

as long as you're cleaning the contacts from any earwax build up you should be fine

[@attilab.2818]

@Fredo.heavyy I do clean them but there is always a 4-10% difference between the left and right earbud (the right one drains faster) and once the case charging level drops below 20%, it starts draining the earbuds. Put away the earbuds with 20-30% charge left and the flat case drains them to 10% or empty. Happened a few times. The case is also very picky about the what wall charger is being used.

[@305dadecounty305]

[@allenaustin5436]

Hey Fredo, Just wanted say that I've become a new fan of yours and your material and I appreciate all the work that you do. 💯 I was wondering if you had any reviews for any of the Soundcore products out there, and if you do specifically what you thought about them. Is it possible to see any videos in the future on that at all?

[@Fredo.heavyy]

I need to get in communication with them as they do provide some good solutions in the audio space

[@SibTiger33]

Which eq do u use?

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Super bass

[@Mettek23]

After that bought az80, I sold my sony xm5 headphone. Az80 has excellent sound quality. And the bass better with the technics because i have glasses so the sony cant produce perfect bass.
