I am looking for new wireless earbuds. I plan to mostly use them with my iphone. Airpods are nice but a bit expensive for me. So while checking out other earbuds I came across nothing ear 2. Is anyone here using them? I would love to hear about your opinions, pros cons etc.

I used to have the 1st gen AirPods Pro, now I’ve got the Ear (2) black (I switched from iPhone to Nothing Phone). I have to say, I really like them. The ANC isn’t quite as good, but for the money they’re great. Sound is really good, but that might be the Nothing X app and its equaliser at work. I’ve tried them with an iPhone and can’t quite get them to sound as good.

The fit (for me) is more comfortable than the AirPods, and so far I haven’t had any crackling sound; something the AirPods are known for. Battery life isn’t quite as good, but it’s decent enough. The case charges quickly with USB-C. One other thing, the sound made when switching between ANC and transparency is a little odd. Certainly not as polished as the AirPods. not a dealbreaker though.

Pros: Sound quality, fit, nice case, USB-C Cons: Battery life not as good, have to do a bit of equaliser work to get the best sound from iPhone.

Hope that helps!
