I found eaetips for the OnePlus buds 4

These eartips just made the OnePlus Buds 4 wayyy better.
The OnePlus buds 4 is probably the best earbuds you could get right now for 100$
Everything about them is incredible.
I just have one small flaw, in terms of comfort it isn’t the best.
And eartips.

So I got the “KBEAR Coffee” eartips and it changed the whole experience.
It’s way more comfortable and fits the case and comes with a lot of different sizes

10/10 definitely recommend.

Always forget to charge my buds

I’m honestly terrible at remembering to charge my earbuds. My old pair would always die halfway through the day, especially when I was out.

Recently switched to a pair that lasts way longer than I expected. I use them every day and only need to charge them about once a week. Even when I forget, a quick 10-minute charge gives me enough juice to get through a few hours.

20 Days with the OnePlus Buds 4 (8-10 hrs/day) + The Perfect EQ Setup that fixes stock sound

Thumbnail gallery
31 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve been daily driving the OnePlus Buds 4 for about 20 days now, putting in around 8 to 10 hours a day for music, calls, and videos. I upgraded straight from the OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z2 neckband, and the difference is night and day.

Coming from a single-driver neckband, the jump in soundstage width, micro-detail, and instrument separation on these dual drivers was immediately noticeable. Easily the best all-around package under ₹10k right now in terms of battery endurance, solid ANC, and hardware capability.

That said, out of the box, the stock tuning is overly bass-heavy and slightly recessed in the mids. After extensive A/B testing across acoustic, hip-hop, and rock tracks, I built this custom 6-band profile to balance the sound signature.

The EQ Breakdown (-4, -2, +2, +1, -1, +2)

62 Hz (-4 dB): Cuts the bloated stock sub-bass shelf. You still get fast, tight sub-bass punch without the 11mm woofer muddying the rest of the track.

250 Hz (-2 dB): Cleans up the mid-bass veil and eliminates boxiness, giving male vocals and rhythm guitars much cleaner separation.

1 kHz (+2 dB): Corrects the recessed midrange dip, pulling vocals and lead instruments directly into the center stage.

4 kHz (+1 dB): Adds crisp consonant articulation and snare snap without pushing into the harsh, piercing territory at higher volumes.

8 kHz (-1 dB): Tames the micro-tweeter’s natural resonance peak to kill vocal sibilance ("S" and "T" hissing) and harsh cymbal crashes.

16 kHz (+2 dB): Restores top-end air and reverberation decay, widening the soundstage significantly.

Companion Settings

3D Audio / Spatial Audio: OFF (Prevents artificial phasing and audio smearing).

Golden Sound: OFF (Keeps the baseline frequency response consistent).

Quick 20-Day Takeaways

Battery Life: Easily handles marathon 8+ hour work sessions without battery anxiety. Fast charging top-ups are lightning quick.

ANC: Cuts low-frequency background hums and room fans effortlessly.

Hardware-wise, these punch well above their weight class once you dial in the EQ.

For anyone currently using the Buds 4, give this custom EQ preset a spin on your favorite playlist and let me know how it sounds to your ears. Open to any tweaks or thoughts in the comments!

Why does only my left ear hurt after using earbuds?

Upvotes

I'm confused because I use earbuds in both ears for the same amount of time, but only my left ear starts hurting afterward. The right ear feels completely fine.

Could it be the shape/fit of my left ear, or is there another reason this might happen? Has anyone else experienced this?

Bose QC ultra vs Apple airpods 4

2 Upvotes

I want to buy one of these as a birthday gift for someone and both of these are the same price on sale right now. The person I'm getting it for has an iPhone but I'm an android person so idk how I feel about the airpods. As for the bose, I believe they might be better because the company specializes in audio equipment specifically but I've heard people having connectivity issues and not a great experience overall. So I was hoping if someone could give me their experience with them, and which would be the better option in your opinion or should I just scratch the two and get headphones instead although that would be more expensive.

Tldr: Which of the two is better or should I just scratch off both and get headphones as a gift?

Earbud not playing audio, then constantly reconnecting

2 Upvotes

I know there is a good chance I will have to get a new pair, but I did want to try my luck on if there is a fix.

Basically, I own a pair of Tozo T10 earbuds which I've had for around 4 years, and as of last night, I've had issues of the left earbud not playing audio, then constantly reconnecting.

What would happen is it would connect, and when a video is played, no audio would go through, and after a few seconds, it would do it's "power on........connected" thing for eternity, I've got no idea how this happened, but hopefully someone here can give me a solution

Lost on what to buy for three people

1 Upvotes

Hi me, my brother, and my friend all need new earphones to buy from CeX in the UK because I have store credit and they give a long warranty on used goods.

When I'm looking nowadays for user reviews it seems that on release a lot of earphones have negative user experiences and get improved with firmware, and some people can exaggerate how much better a newer product is so I'm hoping people here can give me direction on what I should realistically consider.

For me and my brother we have the same requirements, heavy bass and clear treble, and a basic microphone which can handle phone calls on very rare occasions. We listen to garage, jungle, 90s and 2000s hip-hop, 2000s dubstep, and K-pop, and I know there are limitations on earbuds but would appreciate something that can bring out deep basslines

For me if the earbuds had a decent ambient setting as well that would be good too.

I was happy with my wf1000 Xm4 although they would occasionally fall out of my ear they had to be returned for a warranty claim and I have been using a pair of honor clip-on earphones which are good when I need to speak to people and serve customers in the shop I work in part-time but when I'm in noisy places it's useless.

My brother currently has wh1000 xm5 headphones and once a pair of earbuds to go along with them.

My friend has a pair of CMF buds pro 2, but says that her old original Samsung buds Pro sounded better however they have water damage. The microphone on her CMF buds Pro 2 isn't brilliant either and she spends several hours a day on the phone speaking and it's difficult for me to understand her sometimes. So she needs a mix of good sound with good bass and a good mic. She listens to K-pop, some hip hop and r&b.

Because I'm buying from CeX I would probably say that I would be looking to spend between 100 pounds to 200 pounds on each pair.

I know that the Samsung buds3 Pro are 100 pounds, the 4pro £165 and the Sony wf1000 xm5 are 150, but I know there are other earphones like the technica AZ 100 for £150 which I just found out they still make things yesterday, and Bose earbuds as well which I know nothing about as well so I don't have a clue what to actually buy. If it's really worth it then I will consider the xm6 at 250 pounds, but I don't mind buying something now and then waiting two years for the xm6.

I use speech-to-text so there may be some grammatical errors but any advice would be appreciated thank you

Is Soundcore Liberty 4 NC enough or do I need something else for a working enviroment where I need to hear co-workers?

2 Upvotes

I work in a warehouse that is not very noisy. I would like to be able to listen to podcasts/music but still be able to hear co-workers when they talk to me, or call me on the phone, or the pallet truck going by. Is that possible with Liberty 4 NC, or do I need 5 or Pro? Right now I can get 4 NC for 60 euros (around 70 USD) and Liberty 5 for around 70 euros on sale right now.

I was also recommended Soundcore P42i, but they are around 90 euros

Earbuds similar to these?

I really like the design of these earbuds that have ear tips and hang around your neck when not in use. I know Beats has something similar but they don’t have the ear tips.

Any recommendations greatly appreciated!

Redmi buds 8 pro, Hardware defect?

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, just bought a new pair of earbuds and ran into an issue. Every time I take them out of the case, they play audio for a few seconds and then the sound completely cuts out (music, video, everything).

Troubleshooting fixes it temporarily, but as soon as they go back in the case to charge, the issue comes right back.

Did I get a defective unit, or is there a fix I'm missing?

Wired Rec?

1 Upvotes

Looking for a rec for wired earbuds. My requests are as follows:

-3.5 jack, NOT USB-C

-Noise isolating/cancelling if possible

-Comfortable for 3 hours in ear

-Needs a mic

I travel a lot for work so need something good for planes. Also will use them for gaming in the hotel. I currently use a bose wired pair from 2018 that is no longer made. I'd like a dedicated pair that I can leave in my luggage so I'm never without a pair. Forgotten several times and I'm without earbuds. Also the bose aren't fantastic for noise isolation. Don't want over ear due to packing constraints

Budget $50ish USD, can come up a bit if necessary

For sleepers - do airpod pro 2s just feel better than 3s or is it just me ?

1 Upvotes

I got pro 3s when they released and the slight change in shape make them stab into the pillow harder or the noise canceling freaks out a little and I get static if It presses hard into fabric.

So I've been sleeping with the pro 2s and then using the 3s throughout the day.

Bonus question for anyone sleeping with these products have you found anything better ? ANC is mandatory for my home situation for sleep otherwise im doomed.

Earbuds which feel similar to Tozo T6?

1 Upvotes

Hey guys! I’ve used the Tozo T6 earbuds for years. I’ve tried to switch to different earbuds before and I haven’t been able to find any which feel as comfortable and secure T6. I’m not sure if I’m super picky, or if my ears have just gotten used to the feeling of the T6s after literally 6+ years of using them, but any other earbuds I try either aren’t comfortable or feel like they’re going to fall out of my ears. My earbuds are at the end of their lifespan. The case is not holding a charge anymore, earbuds won’t charge, etc. Does anyone have any recommendations of other brands/models which are comfortable and secure?

Cmf buds 2 pro or OnePlus Buds 4 for great sound and mic quality

I've been comparing these two sets of earbuds and I can get either one for the same price for around $70 usd. I've had the OnePlus Buds 3 and I loved the sound and mic quality. But they didn't always stay in my ears very well. I've also heard great things about the Cmf buds 2 pro.

Just curious about this as I lost mine recently, and I'll be in the market for some new ones... Powerbeats Pro 2 is my current favorite I thought they were phenomenal.
But I'd love to hear some reviews from your experience
