Score breakdown
Each part is measured the same way for every model (from specs and lab test measurements where they exist) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.
Pros
- Crisp sound with deep, controlled bass and good separation
- Very comfortable light buds
- Lasted most of a week of 3-4 h daily use
- Useful app with custom EQ and personal sound
- More refined mids and tighter bass than Ear (1)
- Callers heard the reviewer well
- Smooth two-device switching
Cons
- ANC barely masks a ceiling fan
- Transparency sounds artificially boosted
- Case scratches easily
- Treble gets sibilant at high volume
- ANC weak on voices; adaptive mode briefly cut out
- Only 4-5.7 h measured per charge
- Case scuffs quickly
-
A clear improvement over the Ear (1) with lively, balanced sound and comfortable fit; noise cancelling is the letdown.
-
Worth it for the design, detailed sound, calls and features, but sharp treble, average ANC and short battery hold it back.

TechRadarJul 2023
Feature-rich and among the most comfortable buds around, with decent ANC and fine everyday sound, but weak battery. Tested the global model.
-
SoundGuysMar 2023
Lab tests rate the sound highly while noise cancelling lands in the lower half of earbuds measured. Tested the global model.
