00:00:00
today I'll be scoring and ranking six of
00:00:01
the best sports earbuds there's going to
00:00:03
be a total of 12 categories and I'll
00:00:05
cover the basis of what makes a good
00:00:07
earbud but also focus on training
00:00:09
specific categories like running weight
00:00:11
training and the dust and water
00:00:13
resistance now the newest Bud on this
00:00:15
ranking is the Sennheiser momentum sport
00:00:17
the main contenders there are going to
00:00:19
be the Jabra Elite a active and Beats
00:00:21
fit Pro but I wanted to added some
00:00:23
cheaper alternatives like the soundcore
00:00:24
sport X10 Jabra Elite 4 Active and the
00:00:27
old Sennheiser sport cuz it might be
00:00:29
worth saving some money and going for
00:00:30
one of those cheaper options you can
00:00:32
also customize this scoring and compare
00:00:34
every detail nice and easily with my
00:00:36
spreadsheet linked below I'll explain
00:00:38
more about that later though now let's
00:00:39
start with category one comfort and the
00:00:42
senisa momentum sport get the lowest
00:00:44
score with an 8 out of 10 I would
00:00:46
personally score them lower for myself
00:00:48
but I don't want to skew the scoring too
00:00:49
much here because this is just my
00:00:51
experience with the earbuds but the
00:00:53
ergonomics are just a bit off they have
00:00:54
a lot of bulk and chunking areas you
00:00:56
don't want near the nozzle the actual
00:00:57
feel in the ear is okay minimal suction
00:01:00
pressure and they advertise it's a
00:01:01
semiopen fit but it's just a regular
00:01:03
inar fit regular ear tips what they're
00:01:05
talking about there is the acoustic
00:01:06
relief channel to improve airf flow on
00:01:08
the earbud which will reduce body Bor
00:01:10
noise from heavy breathing and the
00:01:11
impact you make on the ground when
00:01:13
running but back to the fit if I use any
00:01:15
of the three sizes of included wing tips
00:01:17
I get pretty bad discomfort after about
00:01:19
20 minutes and I tried using the wing
00:01:20
tips over multiple days to see if my
00:01:22
ears would adapt but the same issue
00:01:24
happened and I do have larger than
00:01:25
average ears so it could just be my ear
00:01:27
canal shape you can put on a cover so
00:01:29
you don't have to to use a wing tip and
00:01:30
the comfort is much better still not
00:01:32
amazing but I can wear the earbuds for
00:01:34
long periods without my ears being in
00:01:35
agony the siser sport also have this
00:01:37
issue it's a very chunky earbud but it's
00:01:39
not as bad so they get an 8.5 same with
00:01:42
the Elite 4 Active they have a bit of a
00:01:43
deeper fit with some slight suction and
00:01:45
pressure in the ear canal the rest of
00:01:47
the buds get a score of nine that just
00:01:48
have a much lighter feel in the ear and
00:01:50
they're buds I can wear for long periods
00:01:51
with no issues now keep in mind this is
00:01:53
how the buds fit me I've tested over 100
00:01:56
True W ear buds and I rarely get issues
00:01:58
with discomfort but I speak to some
00:02:00
fellow reviewers that have the momentum
00:02:02
Sport and they had no issues with
00:02:03
comfort so keep that in mind but now
00:02:05
let's talk about how secure the bud stay
00:02:07
in first starting with running cuz
00:02:09
there's a lot to this so I took all the
00:02:11
earbuds for a run and I tracked things
00:02:13
like body born noise so hearing your own
00:02:15
heavy breathing as well as impact you
00:02:17
make on the ground it also tracks how
00:02:19
much the earbuds move and make noise in
00:02:21
your ear as well as how much wind the
00:02:22
microphones pick up with the
00:02:24
transparency mode on so I scored all
00:02:26
these subcategories on a scale of 1 to 5
00:02:29
the lower the score here the less noise
00:02:31
so the better so when it came to heavy
00:02:33
breathing the Beats fit Pro were the
00:02:35
best the jbra Elite 4 and AD active have
00:02:37
the most but still a 3 out of five isn't
00:02:39
too loud now when it comes to impact on
00:02:41
the ground when running the main issue
00:02:43
here is that it kind of reverberates
00:02:45
into your ear tip and this is a low
00:02:47
frequency sound which is kind of loud in
00:02:49
your ear canal but it's also going to
00:02:50
take away from Bass with the music
00:02:52
you're listening to so all the buds here
00:02:54
get a 2 out of five it is quite minimal
00:02:56
but this is just something to keep in
00:02:57
mind when you are going to be running
00:02:59
you might want to turn the the base up a
00:03:00
little bit in the EQ a unique issue to
00:03:02
the momentum sport though is with the
00:03:04
left ebud making a slight clicking sound
00:03:07
every time I made kind of moderate to
00:03:09
heavier impact on the ground I think the
00:03:11
reason for this is that the left ebud
00:03:13
houses the heart rate and body
00:03:14
temperature tracking which I'll talk
00:03:16
about later but I'm not sure if this is
00:03:17
like a fault with my earbuds only so if
00:03:19
you do own a pair let me know in the
00:03:21
comments if you have that same clicking
00:03:22
issue now the noise the earbud makes in
00:03:25
your ear canal just by like kind of
00:03:26
moving out of place can also be quite
00:03:28
distracting and take away from your
00:03:30
music so the Beats fit Pro and soundcore
00:03:32
Sport X10 have the least followed by the
00:03:34
momentum Sport and the rest of the
00:03:36
earbuds with a score of three now
00:03:38
probably the most important thing to
00:03:39
cover here is how much wind is picked up
00:03:41
through the microphones with the
00:03:43
transparency mode on cuz it's likely
00:03:44
you'll want to be able to hear your
00:03:45
surroundings when you're outside
00:03:47
exercising now wind getting picked up is
00:03:49
inevitable with the transparency mode
00:03:51
but some earbuds have a lot more than
00:03:53
others and I will have a full category
00:03:55
dedicated to the quality of the
00:03:56
transparency mode later in the video or
00:03:58
you can just check the time stamps below
00:04:00
now the senis of sport have the least
00:04:02
amount because they actually don't use a
00:04:03
transparency mode but they use aware ear
00:04:06
tip so that actually l in some sound
00:04:07
through the ear tips themselves so they
00:04:09
aren't using microphones to artificially
00:04:11
pump in your surroundings it's not as
00:04:12
clear as a transparency mode but it does
00:04:14
get the job done so the Beats fit Pro
00:04:16
have the least with a score of two
00:04:18
followed by the sound sport X10 with a
00:04:19
score of three and the rest of the
00:04:21
earbuds have a score of four so when
00:04:23
wind hits the microphones it's pretty
00:04:25
loud and it's just another sound that's
00:04:26
going to take away from whatever you're
00:04:28
listening to so you might have to turn
00:04:29
the the volume up especially if you're
00:04:31
listening to a podcast or low-level
00:04:32
music and this was tested on a day where
00:04:34
it wasn't even that windy but when you
00:04:36
are running due to that forward momentum
00:04:38
the mics are going to pick up wind if
00:04:40
it's windy or not now the Beats fit Pro
00:04:42
Jabra Elite 8 active and soundcore Sport
00:04:44
X10 all have an automatic wind noise
00:04:46
reduction mode which will automatically
00:04:48
turn the transparency mode off when the
00:04:50
mics pick up wind and then it will turn
00:04:51
the transparency mode back on when
00:04:53
there's no more wind detected but the
00:04:55
issue here is that your transparency
00:04:56
mode will turn off so you're not able to
00:04:57
hear your surroundings as well now
00:04:59
actually can't turn this feature off on
00:05:01
the Beats fit Pro it's just kind of
00:05:02
baked into the earbuds but it actually
00:05:04
works quite well so I explain that in
00:05:05
the transparency section so taking all
00:05:07
this into account Here's the final
00:05:09
scores for running so the Beats fit Pro
00:05:11
are the best overall followed by the
00:05:12
soundcore sport X10 and sanaz Sport even
00:05:15
the dber buzs with that lower score
00:05:17
they're still not terrible with running
00:05:18
just keep in mind you're going to hear
00:05:20
more of that body born noise now
00:05:22
category three is how well the buds work
00:05:24
with weight training and this is an
00:05:25
easier one to score I'm going to give
00:05:27
all the buds that have a wing tip a
00:05:28
score of 10 the buds without a wing tip
00:05:30
a score of nine so if you are able to
00:05:32
use the wing tips without any discomfort
00:05:34
that's really going to lock the bud in
00:05:36
place to the point where you won't even
00:05:37
have to readjust throughout your
00:05:38
workouts with the buds without a wing
00:05:40
tip you might have to readjust here and
00:05:41
there for me even with the buds without
00:05:43
a wing tip and the momentum sport
00:05:44
without a wing tip I'm barely needing to
00:05:46
readjust throughout my workouts but if
00:05:48
you're going to be doing more explosive
00:05:49
movements maybe calisthetics yoga where
00:05:52
you're really like leaning upside down
00:05:53
and stuff like that you might prefer a
00:05:55
bud with a wing tip and another thing I
00:05:57
look at when weight training is a Bud's
00:05:59
moving out of place when you're maybe
00:06:00
leaning over for a row and lying down
00:06:02
from a bench press the buds always move
00:06:03
out of place quite easily so for me the
00:06:06
Beats fit Pro and sanor Sport X10 move
00:06:08
out of place the most the rest of the
00:06:10
buds aren't too bad but again this is
00:06:12
just how they work for me it's really
00:06:14
going to depend on how the buds fit you
00:06:16
now category four is the IP rating so
00:06:18
dust and water resistance so the Beats
00:06:20
fit Pro have an ipx4 rating so you only
00:06:22
get water resistance the sport X10 have
00:06:25
an ipx7 waterproof rating so you can
00:06:27
submerge those buds in water preferably
00:06:29
by accident senis of sport have an IP 54
00:06:32
so you get dust and water resistance the
00:06:34
momentum sport bumps it up to an IP 55
00:06:37
rating so slightly better water
00:06:38
resistance and the buds are also
00:06:39
shockproof so they have a higher chance
00:06:41
to survive some drops the Elite 4 Active
00:06:43
are dust resistant and waterproof but
00:06:46
the elite a active go all out military
00:06:48
grade so dust proof not just dust
00:06:50
resistant waterproof as well as shock
00:06:52
proof so welld deserving of a 10 out of
00:06:54
10 score there all right category five
00:06:56
is case and battery life so with the
00:06:58
scoring here I'm taking into account
00:07:00
earbud battery total battery charging
00:07:03
the case size and if the case has dust
00:07:05
or water resistance so to keep this
00:07:07
simple here is all the scoring with all
00:07:08
the advertised numbers and specs that
00:07:10
you're getting so pause here for a
00:07:12
longer look and keep in mind this is
00:07:14
with noise cancelling on and the siser
00:07:16
sport are the only Bud without noise
00:07:18
cancelling and all the cases are quite
00:07:20
thin except for the siser sport that's
00:07:22
the chunkiest case I've ever tested and
00:07:24
here's a top down of all the cases so
00:07:26
you can see the overall size so Elite 8
00:07:28
active is the most compact and thinnest
00:07:30
overall all right category six is
00:07:32
controls and it's nice to see most of
00:07:34
the earbuds use a physical button
00:07:36
control only the ciser sport uses touch
00:07:38
controls and the new momentum sport use
00:07:40
touch controls and haptic feedback so
00:07:43
you have the option to tap on the ebud
00:07:44
or knee your ear to activate them so you
00:07:46
could have your earbuds covered with the
00:07:48
beanie or use gloves and still use the
00:07:49
controls you can adjust the sensitivity
00:07:52
but you still need to press pretty hard
00:07:53
on your face and randomly my left ebod
00:07:56
won't respond and when I adjust the
00:07:57
right ebod the controls will activate
00:07:59
sometimes
00:08:00
now in further testing when using the
00:08:01
wing tips I noticed the control
00:08:03
sensitivity was much better I think this
00:08:05
is due to my pretty large ears so when
00:08:07
I'm using no wing tip the top of the bud
00:08:09
has nowhere to rest so if you have
00:08:11
smaller ears and don't use the wing tip
00:08:12
the sensitivity should still be okay but
00:08:14
again if you can use those wing tips the
00:08:16
controls are going to work a lot better
00:08:18
now the earbuds with wearing detection
00:08:20
are the Beats fit Pro Jabra Elite 8
00:08:22
active and momentum sport so this will
00:08:24
automatically pause your music when you
00:08:26
take one or both earbuds out and resume
00:08:28
playback when you put them back in your
00:08:29
ear is and all of the earbuds give you
00:08:31
the option to adjust volume using the
00:08:33
controls it's only an issue on the Beats
00:08:35
fit Pro cuz you need to choose between
00:08:37
controlling volume or noise cancelling
00:08:39
you kind have both at the same time but
00:08:41
they do have always on Siri so if you're
00:08:43
in the Apple ecosystem you can control
00:08:45
the volume and a lot of other features
00:08:46
with your voice the elite a active also
00:08:49
has the same integration with Google
00:08:50
Assistant but only on Android devices
00:08:53
now more Niche feature I like to look
00:08:54
for with controls is being able to
00:08:56
customize the ambient switching so this
00:08:59
gives you the the freedom to switch
00:09:00
between let's just say noise cancelling
00:09:01
and transparency when you're using your
00:09:03
controls or add noise cancelling off
00:09:05
into the mix or just choose two of those
00:09:07
so the Beats fit Pro Jabra Elite 8 and
00:09:09
four active and soundcore Sport X10 give
00:09:12
you this Freedom so here's all the
00:09:13
scoring taking everything into account
00:09:15
now if you want to see and compare all
00:09:17
the small details like the exact
00:09:18
functions and the customization you get
00:09:21
it's all on my spreadsheet linked below
00:09:23
now under category 7 connectivity I'll
00:09:25
first mention that all the buds allow
00:09:27
you to use one ebod at a time where
00:09:29
leave the other in the case and they all
00:09:30
work in mono mode except for the
00:09:32
Sennheiser Sport and sound sport X10 so
00:09:35
mono mode will mean that the bud will
00:09:36
play the left and right audio Channel
00:09:38
when using just one earbud so basically
00:09:40
you won't miss anything with whatever
00:09:42
music you are listening to again to keep
00:09:44
it simple here's the scoring and specs
00:09:46
that you're getting for each earbud so
00:09:47
only the elite a active and momentum
00:09:49
sport have multipoint connection so that
00:09:51
allows you to connect two devices to the
00:09:53
earbuds at the same time and only the
00:09:55
momentum sport have high reses playback
00:09:57
with Apex adaptive 24-bit 96 khz the
00:10:00
Beats fit Pro does have seamless
00:10:02
switching between Apple devices which I
00:10:04
use and it has improved a lot over the
00:10:06
last 2 years it's now actually quite
00:10:08
seamless where you don't even need to
00:10:09
pause playback before playing it on your
00:10:11
other device it'll automatically switch
00:10:13
between devices for you where with the
00:10:14
other buds that have multipoint
00:10:15
connection you need to pause playback
00:10:17
before playing it on your other device
00:10:19
but for calls that will automatically
00:10:21
switch over all right category 8 is core
00:10:23
quality and I run through three tests
00:10:25
here a quiet room a simulation loud kid
00:10:28
setting cuz it's quite SP ertic voices
00:10:30
and a simulation Windy City with
00:10:31
construction so here is a scoring taking
00:10:34
into account the average of all three
00:10:35
tests now the earbuds that allow you to
00:10:37
mute the microphone with the controls
00:10:39
include the befit pro Jabra Elite 4 and
00:10:41
eight active but the Beats fit Pro are
00:10:44
the only earbud that allows you to
00:10:45
toggle between noise cancelling and
00:10:47
transparency when you're on a call the
00:10:48
Elite 4 and eight active automatically
00:10:50
use side tone which is pretty much a
00:10:52
transparency mode you can turn this on
00:10:54
and off on calls with the eight active
00:10:56
but not on the four the senheiser sport
00:10:58
and momentum sport also give you the
00:11:00
option to turn Sid tone on with the sore
00:11:02
sport X10 will'll switch to noise
00:11:03
cancelling off on a call and then you
00:11:05
can't change it after that but now I'll
00:11:06
leave you with all three samples going
00:11:08
from worst to best all right here's the
00:11:11
core quality of the senisa momentum
00:11:13
sport in a quiet room all right here's a
00:11:15
core quality of the sener sport and a
00:11:17
quiet room all right here's a core
00:11:18
quality of the Beats fit Pro and a quiet
00:11:20
room all right here's a core quality of
00:11:22
the jbra Elite 4 Active in a quiet room
00:11:24
all right here's the core quality of the
00:11:26
Jabra Elite a active in a quiet room all
00:11:29
right right here's the core quality of
00:11:30
the sound cor sport X10 in a quiet room
00:11:33
all right now we're going to see how the
00:11:34
microphones block out some simulation
00:11:36
loud kid noise all right here's a siser
00:11:38
sport with some simulation loud kid
00:11:40
noise all right here's a siser momentum
00:11:42
Sport with some simulation loud kid
00:11:44
noise all right here's a sound call
00:11:46
Sport X10 with some simulation loud kid
00:11:48
noise all right here's a Beats fit Pro
00:11:50
with some simulation loud kid noise all
00:11:52
right here's the Elite 4 Active with
00:11:53
some simulation loud kid noise all right
00:11:56
here's the elite eight active with some
00:11:58
simulation loud kid noise noise all
00:12:00
right now I've got some city noise
00:12:02
construction noise and some simulation
00:12:04
wind all right this city
00:12:16
noise noise constru noise and simulation
00:12:20
all right acity noise construction noise
00:12:23
and some simulation wi all right we some
00:12:27
fitting noise constructing noise and
00:12:29
some simulation wind all right here's
00:12:31
the sound sport X10 with some city noise
00:12:34
construction noise and some simulation
00:12:36
wind all right category 9 is app
00:12:39
customization and extra features so the
00:12:41
Elite 4 Active get a score of seven as
00:12:43
you get a five band EQ some noise
00:12:45
cancelling personalization and find my
00:12:47
buds feature which uses location but you
00:12:49
don't get any control customization the
00:12:51
befit pro get a 7.5 the settings are
00:12:53
built into iOS but you can download an
00:12:55
app on Android you get no EQ
00:12:57
customization and you can't customizer
00:12:59
controls except for that long hold but
00:13:01
you do get ios only features like
00:13:03
spatial audio always on Siri and audio
00:13:05
customization through the accessibility
00:13:07
settings the Sennheiser sport get a
00:13:09
score of eight with a three band EQ
00:13:11
soundcheck will adjust the EQ for you
00:13:13
based on a hearing test and you get
00:13:14
solid control customization the
00:13:16
soundcore sport X10 get an 8.5 with a
00:13:19
decent 8 band EQ control customization
00:13:22
and a built-in kind of meditation timer
00:13:24
thing the Jabra Elite 8 active you get a
00:13:26
score of nine you get a five band AQ
00:13:29
control customization including call
00:13:30
controls F my buds with location spatial
00:13:33
audio on any device extras like
00:13:35
soundscapes Spotify tap to quickly open
00:13:38
Spotify using your earbud controls and
00:13:40
you get the always on Google Assistant
00:13:42
which will also read notifications
00:13:43
straight to your earbuds and the
00:13:45
momentum sport also get a nine you get a
00:13:47
five band EQ sound check control
00:13:49
customization sound zones allows you to
00:13:52
set EQ and noise control settings based
00:13:53
on locations that you've saved but it's
00:13:55
a heart rate and body temperature
00:13:57
tracking that gives them the extra
00:13:58
points I go into detail about this in my
00:14:00
full review so check it out up here if
00:14:02
you're interested in that but to sum it
00:14:04
up it works great in my testing as well
00:14:06
as any Optical heart rate sensor does
00:14:08
and it's in your ear so you don't have
00:14:09
to worry about wearing a fitness watch
00:14:11
but you can sync it up to fitness
00:14:12
watches if you like as well as apps like
00:14:14
straa polar flow zift and a lot more now
00:14:17
on to category 10 noise cancelling and
00:14:20
how I test my noise cancelling I Chuck
00:14:21
on my soundbar quite loud and I'm
00:14:23
playing simulation plane noise and some
00:14:25
crowd noise so I'm getting low Middle
00:14:27
High consistent and inconsistency SS and
00:14:29
here are all the scores of the plane
00:14:31
noise and crowd noise test and that
00:14:33
total score I take the average and round
00:14:35
it up to the nearest half and of course
00:14:37
the siser sport doesn't have noise
00:14:39
cancelling but with the regular ear tips
00:14:40
it still blocks out some noise because
00:14:42
you get pretty decent passive noise
00:14:43
isolation it lets in pretty much all the
00:14:45
low frequency noise but it does block
00:14:47
out voices and higher frequencies
00:14:48
slightly now when it comes to EQ shift
00:14:51
that's how your sound quality will
00:14:52
change with noise cancelling on compared
00:14:54
to transparency compared to noise
00:14:56
cancelling off and all the earbuds are
00:14:58
fine except for the soundcore sport X10
00:15:00
so when you go from noise cancelling on
00:15:02
to transparency you get about a 15% base
00:15:04
reduction and with noise cancelling on
00:15:06
to noise cancelling off it's about a 20%
00:15:08
base reduction and a 10% treble
00:15:10
reduction so it honestly sounds like a
00:15:12
different earbud when you switch between
00:15:13
the three I know this can be a deal
00:15:15
breaker for some people so I have to
00:15:17
point it out now category 11 is the
00:15:19
transparency mode so here is the scoring
00:15:21
for the buds the Beats fit Pro overall
00:15:24
the best and with this scoring I'm
00:15:25
taking into account how much occlusion
00:15:27
the buds have so if it has a high
00:15:29
occlusion when you speak yourself your
00:15:31
own voice sounds kind of muffled and you
00:15:32
just get like a blocked ear kind of
00:15:34
effect so the Elite 4 Active have a
00:15:36
noticeable amount the rest of the
00:15:37
earbuds are okay but the Beats fit Pro
00:15:39
do have the least now white noise is
00:15:41
another issue this can come across as
00:15:43
like a hissing sound sometimes it might
00:15:45
sound like there's an air conditioner on
00:15:47
in the distance with the transparency
00:15:48
mode on so again the Beats fit Pro have
00:15:50
the least and the soundcore sport X10
00:15:52
have the most so if you're outside you
00:15:54
won't notice it as much but still the
00:15:56
sport X10 you probably will notice it
00:15:58
outside and finally there's the
00:16:00
automatic wind noise reduction that I
00:16:01
spoke about earlier again the Beats fit
00:16:03
Pro does this the best so the mics
00:16:05
already don't pick up too much win but
00:16:07
they do pick up a lot it'll quickly
00:16:09
transition out of the transparency mode
00:16:11
and within a couple of seconds it'll
00:16:12
turn the transparency mode back on where
00:16:14
with the Elite 8 active and Sport X10 it
00:16:17
usually takes about 10 seconds for that
00:16:19
transparency mode to switch back on but
00:16:21
it's nice that you have the option to
00:16:22
turn this on or off in the apps all
00:16:24
right now onto the final round sound
00:16:26
quality and let's start with volume here
00:16:28
so these are the results results I got
00:16:29
in my max volume test now keep in mind
00:16:31
when you start venturing above 80 DB
00:16:33
you're starting to get into hearing loss
00:16:35
territory but a lot of people just like
00:16:36
to know what the loudest ebud is so here
00:16:38
you go so the momentum sport are the
00:16:40
quietest at max volume but they still go
00:16:43
incredibly loud you might just notice
00:16:45
you have to listen at a slightly higher
00:16:46
percentage of volume than the other
00:16:47
earbuds but now onto the sound quality
00:16:50
itself I'm going to start with the
00:16:51
lowest Rank and work our way up to the
00:16:53
highest so we're starting with the jbra
00:16:55
Elite 4 Active with a score of seven you
00:16:57
get a pretty well-rounded stock tuning
00:16:59
slightly Bas boosted you get clear mids
00:17:01
and the treble is okay it does like a
00:17:03
bit of that upper treble Sparkle and can
00:17:05
still get a bit harsh at times you can
00:17:06
fix this in the EQ a bit and if you want
00:17:08
to push out some strong base you can do
00:17:09
this as well next with the score of 7.5
00:17:12
is the Sennheiser sport this is a unique
00:17:14
truning with base that's on the boier
00:17:16
side the subbase is a bit lacking the
00:17:18
mids are recessed but ver will still cut
00:17:20
through quite well but the treble is a
00:17:22
standout it has great detail and some
00:17:24
nice upper treble Sparkle So this brings
00:17:26
out things like crashes high hats
00:17:28
acoustic guitars and orchestration very
00:17:30
well so it's definitely an energetic
00:17:32
tuning that works well when training the
00:17:34
three-band EQ doesn't give you too much
00:17:36
freedom and you can't really get that
00:17:37
subbase to a nice level now the
00:17:39
soundcore sport X10 also get a 7.5 this
00:17:42
is definitely the most energetic truning
00:17:44
out of all the buds deep thumping base
00:17:46
full mid base that is a little bit on
00:17:48
the boomy side slight recession in the
00:17:50
mids but the vocals still come through
00:17:51
well so you get nice detail some sparkle
00:17:54
but it can get a little bit harsh you
00:17:55
can reduce this with the EQ but only so
00:17:57
much but overall if you like a v-shaped
00:17:59
tuning with some over-the top base these
00:18:01
are going to be the pair for you next
00:18:03
with a score of eight is a Jabra Elite 8
00:18:05
active basically take the elite for
00:18:07
active and improve everything slightly
00:18:09
so again it's a slightly base boosted
00:18:11
tuning that's powerful but you get
00:18:13
decent overall Clarity you also get
00:18:14
Dolby spatial audio but honestly like
00:18:17
most spatial audio it's not great next
00:18:19
is the beat spit Pro also with a score
00:18:21
of eight this is the most balanced
00:18:23
tuning out of all the earbuds so you get
00:18:24
a tasteful amount of deep subbase the
00:18:27
mid base is a bit lacking and the treble
00:18:29
has nice detail but does like that upper
00:18:30
treble Sparkle the mids are the standout
00:18:33
though so vocals are at the Forefront
00:18:35
they're not too forc though so combine
00:18:37
this with the clean base and you get the
00:18:39
best instrument separation out of all
00:18:40
the buds so you can really pick out
00:18:42
individual instruments and sounds in
00:18:44
that Sound Stage the only issue here is
00:18:45
a lack of EQ customization so you'll
00:18:47
have to use an external EQ so only
00:18:49
really useful on an Android device but
00:18:51
you do get spal audio on iOS devices and
00:18:54
this is slightly better than the Elite 8
00:18:55
active but still not great but now the
00:18:58
best overall sound is going to the
00:18:59
Sennheiser momentum sport they get a
00:19:01
score of 8.5 so take the Beats fit Pro
00:19:04
tuning but just give it more energy so
00:19:06
the mids are also the main focus but the
00:19:08
bass is richer and so is a trouble you
00:19:10
get more Sparkle and just has better
00:19:11
presence overall they have the most open
00:19:13
Sound Stage as well and if you want to
00:19:15
turn them into base cannons you can do
00:19:17
so by chucking on that Basse boost
00:19:18
special EQ preset and play around with
00:19:20
the band EQ as well also love the
00:19:22
ability to quickly base boost the buzz
00:19:24
just using the controls I have mine set
00:19:25
to a triple tap on the left earbud so if
00:19:27
you need a little bit of extra base for
00:19:29
whatever it is you're doing you don't
00:19:30
even have to use your phone very handy
00:19:32
all right but that wraps up all 12
00:19:34
categories and before I show you the
00:19:35
final score this scoring doesn't really
00:19:37
mean much if certain categories matter
00:19:39
more to you so that's why I created my
00:19:41
custom scoring spreadsheet free to
00:19:43
download link below so on there you get
00:19:45
detailed notes for every single score
00:19:47
there's a tab with all the main specs
00:19:49
for each earbud there's also a core
00:19:50
quality tab with a score for each of the
00:19:52
three tests but it's a personalized
00:19:54
scoring where you can have some fun so
00:19:56
you just fill out a number in the
00:19:57
importance column and that will change
00:19:58
the weight of the scoring for that
00:20:00
entire category zero will get rid of the
00:20:02
category two to double its importance or
00:20:04
five will times it by five you can do
00:20:05
whatever you want in there and once
00:20:07
you've done that you'll get a new total
00:20:08
score for each earbud but now here are
00:20:10
all the final scores so the senis of
00:20:12
sport are in last place with a score of
00:20:14
90 a half out of 120 fair enough
00:20:17
considering they don't have noise
00:20:18
cancelling or transparency Mode still
00:20:20
might be worth it with the lowest wind
00:20:22
noise when running they're really the
00:20:23
only in rear that does this in fifth
00:20:26
place with 912 is the Elite 4 Active
00:20:28
probably not worth it seeing you can get
00:20:30
the sound call Sport X10 for a cheaper
00:20:32
price and are overall better in fourth
00:20:34
place with a score of 96 that's
00:20:37
definitely the best all round option if
00:20:38
you're looking to save some money now in
00:20:40
third place is the Beats fit Pro with 97
00:20:42
and a half so if running is your main
00:20:44
priority this is going to be a great bud
00:20:46
and if you're in the Apple ecosystem you
00:20:47
get tons of extra features and they just
00:20:49
work seamlessly now in second place is
00:20:51
the senisa momentum Sport with a score
00:20:53
of 100 as long as they fit you well
00:20:55
they're a great allrounder with the best
00:20:57
sound quality and you get the heart rate
00:20:58
and body temperature sensor which could
00:21:00
be a big one for you as well but the
00:21:02
best value is going to be the Jabra
00:21:03
Elite 8 active with an easy win
00:21:05
finishing with3 A2 and they really nail
00:21:08
every category the only issue is
00:21:10
slightly more body born noise when
00:21:11
running but I hope this video and
00:21:13
scoring system helps you decide which
00:21:15
pair is going to work the best for you
00:21:16
but if you're looking for more Sports

tip check out my top 10 open earbud
00:21:21
