This is what they sound like: crisp and clear are the two words that come to mind when listening to the Free Byrd. In Supertramp's "Even In The Quietest Moments", for example, they transport the twelve-string guitar crystal clear into the ear canal and don't get confused when the arrangement becomes increasingly dense towards the end...

Strong TWS debut from beyerdynamic: The Free Byrd score with excellent workmanship, an excellent sound and good ANC. However, the wearing comfort could be improved and the app should offer more options.

Depending on your requirements and budget, it's easy to choose between the premium in-ears: the Huawei Freebuds Pro 2 are available from 140 euros, making them the budget tip in the test. They sound decent and sit comfortably even over a longer period of time. Only those who make a lot of calls in noisy environments should invest a few euros more...
