beyerdynamic Free BYRD Grey True Wireless Bluetooth in-Ear Headphones, Active Noise Cancelling, Long Battery Life, Microphone, IPX4, Sound Personalization and Alexa Built-in

They have excellent sound quality, great bass, no clipping, just 10/10 on that front. I don't have much need for noise cancellation but they seem to do a pretty good job, just know I've dropped my earbuds a few times over the last few months on concrete/tile and the ANC on my right bud has gotten pretty fuzzy/warbley so I had to disable it, but otherwise they're still 100% functional. I've had a lot of annoyances with other wireless earbuds that are too flimsy or had touch buttons on awkward places that could be activated when out of your ear, which made them extremely annoying to handle. So I love that these are bigger and have a lot more space to hold onto, never had any accidental button presses. They have a sensor to detect when they're in ear, and sends a pause/unpause to your media when you take them out and put them back in. I really like this feature but some may find it annoying, I'm not sure if it can be disabled in the app. I have encountered ZERO syncing issues; I've had wireless earbuds that stop connecting with each other, that try to connect individually with my device, that refuse to connect entirely. I've never had any of those problems with these earbuds. They have an 8-9 hour full charge plus like 3 full charges in the case. If I remember to put them back in my case when I step away from my desk I never run out of battery. Something people don't tell you about wireless earbuds is that they're not really ideal for voice calls and listening to media at the same time, because the headset driver uses half of the Bluetooth bandwidth for its microphone, this makes all of the sound they output very low quality. This is a problem with Bluetooth 5.0 and not the devices, however, it will only use the headset driver and not output any sound to the main stereo output when connected to a call on windows. So even if you have an external microphone, you're still reduced to halved audio quality when using these for a call.

These are able to compete with the FIIO fw5 buds sound wise certainly, although they aren't really audiophile buds... I'll explain. No LDAC or high end codec on the Beyerdynamic Free Byrds unless you consider aptx adaptive high end. Here's the kicker, IT DOESN'T MATTER. I use AAC on these Free Byrds with my Google 6 Pro phone and the sound is absolutely amazing. The air around the instruments is amazing, the sound is colored, so not audiophile, to bring you deep bass with thick mids, the sound is warm for sure but without too much bass and without drowning out the highs which are readily audible but not sharp at all. I can hear every note from every instrument presented easily. Also to be noted is the fantastic soundstage with pin-perfect imaging. It's uncanny how good these sound as sound comes from exactly where the artist meant them to come from, literally all over the place... above your eye, check, outside the width of your ear, check, deeper in the back of your head, check. The entire codec war is going to be null and void with these buds. CLEAN sound, loud and clear on the spot and they can play loud if that's what you're in to. Use the hearing test to personalize the sound to your hearing abilities and it only gets better. I have a ton of money in audio and qualify as one of those strange audiophile people and I'll tell you quickly these things are absolutely awesome sounding, for the price its absolutely a no brainer. I also have Beyerdynamic DT990 Pros and the Beyerdynamic Amiron Homes both of which are no slouch in the audio dept and these buds just make me shake my head. Its comparison to the 770 closed backs is spot on but the buds sound wider. No way was this a rushed product thrown together just to get on the market, these are WELL thought out and executed even for picky listeners who want to hear the mids also. This was Beyerdynamics warning to the others, "We are here now, and we're not playing games." Buy with confidence...

These earbuds have rich, punchy sound with luscious (but not boomy) bass and good mids and highs, and the sound can be tailored even further to your liking with audio testing and preset EQs in the companion app. This set also comes with a wide assortment of OEM eartips, including Small to Extra Large in silicone and Small to Large in memory foam, so you can more easily find a size that will stay in your ears. Battery life is also wonderfully lengthy. That being said, I wish the companion app had a completely customizable EQ slider, and the buds themselves are a tad on the chunky side. The ambient noise mode is also kind of just adequate, though noise canceling does the job well. The durability of these buds' plastics is also questionable, as cracks have started to develop in my left earbud, so make sure to take a little extra care of them. Still, for a sound-first pair of earbuds, and for Beyerdynamic's first foray into the true wireless arena, they do what they set out to do very well. EDIT: Unfortunately, I had to knock a star off of my review because the cracks finally did my left earbud in. They still sounded fantastic right up to the end, but these earbuds' build quality must be called into question.

My older pair of Apple AirPods Pro died so I was trying to decide between buying another pair of the same or this one. I already own the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro headphones which are professional grade, which I use for professional purposes. So I was eager to try these Bluetooth earphones by the same manufacturer. I’m a bit of a sound snob, so I actually rate these Beyerdynamic earphones better than the Apple AirPods in terms of their frequency response & overall detailing of sound you can hear. If you download the Beyerdynamic MIY app, it even allows you to personalise the frequency response as per your hearing ability. It beats the Apple AirPods Pro hands down in terms of overall sound quality and accuracy. That said, it does lack the seamless functionality of its Apple competitor, such as switching between devices, and of course the ability to locate them if misplaced or lost. As a sound snob, I’m willing to sacrifice a little user-ease for the superior sound quality. The battery life has been quite decent so far. It remains to see how great the overall life of the battery itself holds up.

Fan de Beyerdynamic. Son el cuarto producto que compro de esta marca y nunca decepcionan. La calidad de audio es excelente. Pros: *Insuperable calidad de audio para in-ears *Bajos claros y potentes. El fuerte de estos audifonos. Mejor que los Sony WF-1000XM4 que usé como comparación. *Medios claros, las voces se escuchan muy bien. Aquí los Sony empatan o ganan, muy parejo. *Altos cristalinos y que no fastidian (suele ser el caso con algunos de los productos de Beyerdynamic). No encontré diferencias vs los Sony. *Buena cancelación de ruido, aunque no soy muy crítico en este aspecto. *Buen nivel de volumen, normalmente los escucho a la mitad y es suficiente. Incluso en volúmenes bajos el sonido es claro. Cons: *Todo lo relacionado al software: *Sin Ecualizador. Tiene una opción en la app para ajustar el sonido según un test. No lo encontré útil y siento que acaba molestando más que ayudando. No tiene ajuste por frecuencias, solo EQs precargados (los típicos Rock, Clásica, Bass Boost, etc) *Los comandos no son programables y no son estándar (e.g. tres toques en el audífono izquierdo para canción anterior y tres en el derecho para la siguiente, ¡¿por qué hacer eso?! *Para apagar la cancelación de ruido hay que ir a la app. Dos toques en el auricular izquierdo la encienden y alternan entre modo transparente y ANC. Un toque en falso y la vuelvo a prender (¿por qué no alternar entre Transparente, ANC y apagado? *En general son muy grandes y la forma es poco natural, duele si pones la cabeza sobre la almohada con ellos. Resumen: Compré estos audífonos porque no aguanté la curiosidad respecto a lo que Beyerdynamic lograría con su primera entrada al true wireless. Son muy buenos audífonos y en calidad de audio me gustan más que mis Sony WF-1000XM4. Peeeero, me tomó muchas horas de escuchar ambos pares para poderme decidir, ambos suenan muy bien. Aunque soy fan de Beyerdynamic y sus Custom One Pro Plus y DT900 Pro X son los mejores que he tenido, por comodidad y calidad del software, recomiendo que mejor consideren los WF-1000XM4 si buscan audífonos inalambricos.

j'ai deux autres paires d'écouteurs, notamment des Sony wf 1000 xm5, j'ai acheté les free byrd car je dispose aussi d'un casque beyer dynamic dont j'apprécie la qualité de fabrication et la restitution sonore. je ne suis pas déçu par ses écouteurs qui permettent une écoute très qualitative notamment de fichiers hires via un Dap et qui se rapproche à mon avis d'une écoute hi fi au casque sous réserve évidemment d'une bonne source et de fichiers non compressés, j'ai également une sensation de scène ouverte et d'une restitution claire et détaillée, bref c'est un véritable plaisir. ils sont à mon avis supérieurs aux écouteurs Sony pour la restitution. Je n'ai pas testé l'anc.

Als Kopfhörerfan musste ich die Free BYRDs einfach ausprobieren. Die ersten TWS von Beyerdynamic. Die sehr positiven Testberichte taten ihr Übriges. Und so kann ich mir nun bereits seit ein paar Tagen selber ein Bild von diesen TWS machen. Was wird für 239,- Euro geboten? Sehr gut verarbeitete InEars. Hatte ich von Beyerdynamic etwas anderes erwartet? Nein. Perfekt. Ein erstaunlich kleines Case (Vergleich Sony, Grell Audio) welches sich sogar per NFC laden lässt. Perfekt. Ausreichend viele Pads, sodass für jedes Ohr die richtige Größe dabei sein sollte. Ich habe mehrfach zwischen zwei Größen gewechselt. Wie bei allen InEars sehr wichtig, um einen wirklich guten Sound zu erhalten. Jetzt habe ich die richtige Größe gefunden. Perfekt. Verbindung zum Smartphone herstellen. Wie bitte? So schnell kann das gehen? Sekunden! Ich bin begeistert. Dann die MIY App aus dem Store herunterladen, in einem ruhigen Raum einschließen und den personalisierten Klang per "Hörtest" durch die App ermitteln lassen. Lohnt das? Auf jeden Fall. Geniale Anpassung an das eigene Hörvermögen! Zum Klang: Einfach beeindruckend. InEars, die eine solche Bühne bieten? Aus meiner Sicht können da nur die Konkurrenten von Grell mithalten. Die Free BYRDs bieten jedoch den detaillierten und für mich auch unverfälschteren Klang. Beyerdynamic nutzt die Kompetenz und jahrelange Erfahrung und punktet klar. ANC: funktioniert gut. Ein Vergleich zu anderen Anbietern fällt mir aber schwer. Vielleicht liegen hier die Sony vorn. Für mich ist die Leistung aber wirklich gut. Der Transparenzmodus macht was er soll. Während Musik weiter klar rüber kommt, werden Außengeräusche durchgereicht. Steuerung: jeder Hersteller hat sein eigenes Konzept. Beyerdynamic tippt mehrfach und wischt nicht. Nach kurzer Zeit habe ich recht zielsicher getroffen und gesteuert. Passt. Fazit? Was hat mich beeindruckt? Ganz klar der Sound. Der ist einfach extraklasse. Ich kann stundenlang begeistert zuhören. Kann ich die Free BYRDs empfehlen? Ja. Uneingeschränkt.

Price is worth for what I got. 👍
