I broke my Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and can get some from Costco for $160. What else should I be considering in that price range? What do you like?

    All I can say is don’t buy the Sony wf-1000 series. My XM4s are in for warranty repair for the second time in 6 months.

      The WF-1000XM4 is fine long as you don’t update the firmware to 2.0.0.

      Got mine as a refurbished unit couple months ago, came with 2.0.0 by default and it ended up almost nuking the battery after two months lol. I ended up having to get the battery replaced, plus downgrading to 1.3.3 and it’s been smooth sailing ever since thankfully.

        My issue has been the right earbud getting capped at ~10% volume - left is fine, right is almost inaudible. Luckily didn’t have the battery issues others had with 2.0.0
