I scoured the internet for some kind of answer to my indecisiveness on whether I should get the xm5s or the galaxy buds 2 pro
I ended up getting the Xm5s... and tbh they're great.
My biggest worry was that I was afraid that they were going to sound like ass because my apple beats pro 2 sounded like complete dog doo doo
And everything I read from redditors was like "nah they're not the best, they sound bad compared to this or that" and it just fueled my indecisiveness
The xm5s blow the apple beats pro 2 out of the water and I'm really really happy with my choice. I'm not super into audiophile so I don't care as long as they sound good
With the right fit earbuds and the ANC I can watch lecture videos and completely focus on school in a pretty busy environment
When I listen to music they sound just as good as my wired headphone and with the ANC it's even better because I just hear the music.
So I guess this is for any other indecisive people out there who find it hard to pick between products. Just pick one, you can always return it in the end if you don't like it, if you're just a casual listener like me that doesn't care too much about the small things about sound, the sound will probably sound just fine for the average person.
Just don't get the apple beats pro, they're actually truly bad and left an actual bad impression on wireless listening for me.
