- The 1MORE ComfoBuds Pro are the latest set
of active noise cancellation true wireless earbuds
coming from 1MORE.
And they're packing a bunch of features that we're into,
including five different listening modes,
along with that sound quality
that we've come to expect from 1MORE.
Now, my name is Jeff, also known as El Jefe,
and I am here to tell you whether or not
these are gonna be worth your hard-earned money.
Now, if you're interested in checking
these out for yourself, hit the links that I'm gonna leave
in the description box down below.
And if you have any questions or concerns about the way
that I receive or review any of these products,
I'm gonna leave that disclosure
for you right down there as well.
So let's get into it.
These are on a Bluetooth 5.0,
along with SBC and AAC as their connection codecs.
When it comes to Bluetooth range,
these are gonna give you 39 feet
or right around 12 meters worth of Bluetooth range.
Now, when you're gonna be watching video on your Android
or iOS device, there's gonna be little to no latency or lag
when you're watching videos.
Now, when it comes to gaming,
that's where performance tends to vary just a little bit.
So if you're gonna be playing high-performance,
first-person shooter games, and you're competitive,
these may not work that well for you.
You might notice a little bit of a delay there.
But if you're just gonna be playing some more casual games;
Asphalt 9, Clash of Clans, things like that,
it's not gonna be an issue.
Now these are also featuring dual connect
or independent mode, and that's where you can use one earbud
while you leave the other one charging in the case,
and then you can swap them out and vice versa.
So no issues with that.
I know some people like to use one earbud at work, you know,
halfway through the day, and then they wanna switch out.
They've got you covered when it comes to that.
And then last but not least,
these also feature in ear detection
or what they call smart play.
And that's basically where when you put them in,
they'll start playing on their own.
And when you take them out,
they will automatically pause themselves.
So that's an awesome feature.
And with the 1MORE MUSIC app,
you can actually adjust exactly how that feature functions.
So you can turn it off all the way,
or you can make it so it only pauses, any combination.
So they've got you covered for that.
So now let's move over to the battery life.
So as far as the case is concerned,
the case is gonna give you an additional three
to four charges.
So anywhere around 25 to 28 hours.
As far as the playback time is concerned,
they were claiming six hours
with noise cancellation turned on
and eight hours with noise cancellation turned off.
In my own actual testing, at 75% volume,
with ANC in the strongest setting,
I was able to pull six hours and three minutes
out of these earbuds.
With active noise cancellation turned off,
I was able to pull seven hours and 48 minutes.
So overall, the battery life
of these earbuds is pretty good.
Now they also feature that fast charge function.
So if you do run them down all the way,
you can drop them into their case for 10 minutes.
And that'll give you an additional two hours worth
of playback time.
As far as charging the case itself,
that's gonna be a USB Type-C.
Unfortunately, there is no wireless charging
on these earbuds at this time.
So now let's jump over to the comfort and the controls.
Now let me preface this by saying that, you know, comfort,
it's highly subjective.
Everybody's ears are shaped differently.
So what's comfortable for me and my big ears
may not apply to you, but people do find this helpful.
So this is why I share this.
As far as my own ears, these are very light
and very comfortable.
Now I tend to have big cheeks right here.
So usually with stem-style earbuds,
sometimes if they're too close to my ear
or if the hook is too tight, then they'll run into my cheeks
and it can cause an issue where they'll break the seal.
With these, that is not a problem.
The way that they are shaped is super ergonomic,
and it does not cause me any kinda grief.
So so far in all of my listening sessions,
no ear fatigue whatsoever.
Now, they do include
a bunch of different ear tips with them.
But the ear tips that were included were not my favorite.
Let me just put it that way.
Even with the largest size,
I was having a lot of trouble getting them to seal
in my ear.
Now that is a me-problem, let's just make that clear.
But I did have to swap out these ear tips
over to a set of CP360 from SpinFit.
So if you're interested in checking out those ear tips,
I'll leave links to those in the description box
down below as well.
If you've been watching my channel for a while,
you know I'm a big fan of their ear tips.
They seal super, super well, and they provide
much better sound quality in most instances.
So that's why I went ahead and swapped that out to those.
But overall, comfort has been very, very good for me.
As far as the control scheme,
these are using full-touch controls.
So it is a easy-to-learn, tap, tap, triple tap, long press.
It works like a charm.
So once you get the hang of it,
no problems with that whatsoever.
On top of that, using the 1MORE MUSIC app,
you can adjust those functions.
You can make it work, controls your noise canceling.
You can get volume control, skip track,
answering phone calls, whatever you wanna do,
you've got the ability to make that adjustment.
Overall, I found it very easy to use.
And so far my experience with them has been good.
So now before we move any further,
let me hit you with a question real quick.
What is the very first song you're gonna listen to
when you get a set of earbuds?
So let's say you grab a new set of headphones
a new set of earbuds.
What's that number one track that you wanna see
if these are gonna sound good for you,
if these are gonna work for you?
Let me know what that song is down in the comment section.
Now let's get into the performance of these earbuds.
So as I said, in the beginning of this video,
there are five listening modes.
So let me break that down.
Active noise cancellation, strong,
active noise cancellation, mild.
Then you've got the wind noise reduction mode,
ambient sound, and then everything off just regular sound.
So those are the five modes.
With ANC Strong,
that is obviously the strongest version of it.
And it actually works very, very well.
And it's easily on par with a lot
of the other true wireless earbuds coming in right
around that $100 mark.
Very good noise cancellation.
Now obviously, this can be improved
by using superior ear tips.
When I initially tested the noise cancellation,
I was using the stock ear tips,
and I don't know if I was getting that good of a seal,
because the noise cancellation didn't seem that good.
But when I got a better seal from the improved ear tips,
definitely improved the performance
of that noise cancellation, so overall, very, very good.
ANC Mild is basically just a reduced version of that ANC.
Sounds better like if you're inside your house,
and maybe there's some ambient noise,
maybe they've got an air conditioner or something going,
it's gonna take care of that very well.
And then wind noise reduction is,
if you're gonna be wearing them outside,
you got a little bit of a breeze going on.
That's gonna sort of use an algorithm
to kinda tamp down that noise.
Overall, it works okay.
Last but not least, you've got the ambient sound mode,
and that's where you can activate the microphone.
So you can hear your surroundings
and maintain situational awareness.
Now, this is very good.
And the way that I'll personally use it is if I go
for a walk, I want to make sure I have that mode on,
so that if I'm going across the street
or doing things like that, I can be mindful of traffic.
And also, maybe you never know, man,
somebody might try to run up on you.
You wanna be able to hear those footsteps, right?
So very good.
And overall, it actually worked pretty well.
The sound coming through doesn't sound overly processed.
You can hold conversations with people.
You can even watch TV, if you want it to.
So overall, it actually does work pretty well.
And now let's get into the volume.
So as far as volume is concerned,
I gave these a nine out of 10.
These get quite loud.
Now, not the loudest earbuds on the market,
but way more than loud enough for your boy.
So nine out of 10, very, very good volume.
Comfortable listening for me comes in right around 65
to 70%, even lower when I turn on that noise cancellation,
which is nice, 'cause once you get that isolated sound,
you can listen to them at a lower volume level
and protect your hearing.
So that's super important.
The lower volume that you can listen to your earbuds at,
the better it is gonna be for your ear.
So you can enjoy your music into your old age,
but overall, excellent volume.
Even for those volume junkies out there,
these are gonna have you covered.
Now when it comes to sound quality,
this is what I expect from 1MORE.
That warmth, that richness,
that just buttery, smooth tuning, I absolutely love it.
They give you that nice deep bass extension.
So if you're gonna be listening to hip-hop or trap or EDM,
these things pound, these drivers are bringing that bass,
but it doesn't muddy up the mids.
So that's where they do a lot of this tuning where they get,
this is where that warmness and that richness comes in.
You get excellent vocal clarity from these guys,
because that mid-range has, I don't know,
this buttery smoothness to it that I really truly enjoy.
Very, very nice, and you get some nice trouble,
it isn't overly done.
It isn't really, really sharp or piercing.
It rolls off right at the right point.
You can pull a little more out of it if you want to use it
like Wavelet or one of those EQ apps.
But overall, I can listen to these just as they are,
right out of the box, and I will truly enjoy them.
1MORE really is tuned
the way that I personally prefer my sound quality,
more on the warmer side
versus that purely balanced, flat sound.
So it doesn't really matter
what genre of music you're listening to.
Because when I test, I test with all kinds of genres;
hip-hop, ballads, classical, reggae, Latin music,
I mean, I'm doing all of it.
And these really performed well.
I haven't really found any weak points in its sound.
So overall, I mean, just excellent,
like really, really well done here.
And if you're interested in any of the songs
or checking out one of my playlist,
I'm actually dabbling with Amazon HD Music.
So I'm gonna leave a link to that down below.
And I'm also gonna leave you a link for a free trial,
if you're interested in trying that out.
But they've got some pretty serious,
high-quality tracks on there.
I'm using their Ultra HD, and it is (clicking) excellent.
Let me tell you, so I'm trying that out right now,
but let me know, if you guys,
if any of you are using that Amazon Music,
let me know what you think of it so far.
So so far, I am highly impressed
with the 1MORE ComfoBuds Pro
in the time that I've spent with them.
I have seriously enjoyed the sound quality.
These have been great so far, and this is an easy recommend
from your boy, El Jefe.
Considering how competitive the $100 market is.
This is a nice addition, and I'm really happy
that 1MORE brought out something, bringing this level
of quality for a pretty decently low price.
And now before we go any further,
I'm gonna hit you with some quick mic quality samples.
This way you can hear what they sound like indoors
and outdoors, and that way you can decide
whether or not that's gonna work for you.
All right, so here we have the call quality test
for the 1MORE ComfoBuds Pro.
So testing, testing, one, two, three.
It's actually, pretty breezy out here today.
Outdoor test, obviously.
So there should be a pretty good test.
Testing, testing, one, two, three.
All right, so here we have the call quality tests
for the 1MORE ComfoBuds Pro indoors.
So testing, testing one, two, three semi-quiet room
shouldn't be too bad in here.
A little bit of computer noise in the background.
Testing, testing, one, two, three.
Now, with all of that out of the way, if you're interested

With that said, I'm out, peace.
