i would say with my fh5s i found my endgame. i dont wanna know how much better the FH7 are. the Semi Open back design really helped with the soundstage but still they have deccent isolation. i was walking on the walkway beside a busy road and i didnt hear shit of them while the music was plaiiny. only when the music was off i heard it muffeled

Say no more I've started researching these now! This will be my hobby for the next few days now thank you! I wish I can stop obsessing about new tech sometimes

Are these IEMis a new breed of earphones or have they always been around? I've seen 2 posts now about these IEMis didn't know anything like this exited unless they're just fancy earphones? Can someone enlighten me.

My first set was the Fiio FH3 and they are incredible for the money! I’m sure that set is even better.

Shoot was taken with the new s23 ultra. These are the fiio fh5s. My first ever iem where the t20 from rha which i sadly lost after i moved out. I tried out multiple headphones but i think my heart will stick to iem's cause of their comfort.

How much do they cost? I've got the Galaxy ones for 92€ (~100$)

They can be excellent or atrocious. Just depends. I love the Pixel Buds and Sony XM3 controls. The Galaxy Buds2 Pro are good but the touch surface isn't super clear. I imagine ones that aren't consistent and touch the edge of my ear would be horrible but I've not used a set like that yet

Typically, I disable them. If I ever need touch controls, it's easier to use the controls on the watch to play, pause, etc (Buds Pro 2, Galaxy Watch).

Huh, I actually like them, but the tws I own are the beoplay E8, which has a painfully obvious area where the touch controls are located. It's a giant flat space.

Again, which earbuds do you use? Galaxy Wearable, for example, makes everything to make them customizable

This is an excellent solution for sensitive IEMs. I'm glad the power match proved to be a quick fix! Although sometimes these pairings cause unwanted noise, we want to make sure you're enjoying your music at the highest quality without issue.

What if they keep cost down by eliminating circuitry not everyone needs?

Yeah I wish on my buds 2 pro that there was an option to pause the music when you remove a bud, a la Apple Airpods, rather than have touch controls. Since they don't, I end up using the touch controls all the time to pause my music whenever someone wants to talk to me.

You need to adjust, just like with the almost buttonless cell phones.
This issue goes away once voice control software understands you

I currently have both, due to thinking I'd lost the first set, I prefer the originals in quiet listening spaces. But, the added base in the Dusk helps when outside.

I have the Fiio FW5 with physical buttons and it's substantially more annoying than the Samsung or Sony buds I have with touch controls, they are simultaneously harder to deliberately press and easier to accidently press while pushing in. Physical buttons require more force, too, which tends to dislodge the buds. It's bad enough I don't use them on the Fiio while I use them on the Samsung and Sony all the time, and they pretty much "just work".
One thing I have found is the big brands (Samsung, Sony) do seem much better with the touch controls than Chi-Fi earbud makers. Once you know where the touch surface is and how to hold them (usually by the sides), I literally never trigger my Samsung or Sony buds putting them in or adjusting them.

Occasionally, I accidentally pause, but they're the best way to have controls.
The other options would be using your phone, which means pulling out your phone every time you want to pause (and some earbuds support turning off touch controls) or a remote, which I feel like most people would lose.
