WEBVTT 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:08.719 there's a lot of Buzz about these cmf buds Pro two from nothing's budget brand 00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:14.480 cmf because they're so dang cheap so we're going to find out if there's any 00:00:10.719 --> 00:00:16.199 reason to pay more I mean 3 through 50 00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:20.439 for the kind of Flagship buds from the major brands could these be that much 00:00:18.240 --> 00:00:23.880 worse first thing you notice a fun color it comes in multiple colors I probably 00:00:22.119 --> 00:00:28.199 wouldn't choose the blue but it's nice to have these options and there they are 00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:34.239 inside too more comments on those after we look at what else it comes with cable 00:00:30.400 --> 00:00:36.040 USB a to type c interesting choice not C 00:00:34.239 --> 00:00:42.239 to c i you know that's probably philosophical on the one hand you're like come on get on the bus it's a USBC 00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:45.160 future USBC everything but on the other hand there's lots of a ports around 00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:50.280 still so it's probably just going to depend on you and what you have laying around does your laptop have an a port 00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:54.640 this is really short and there's no adapter but you know what it's a budget 00:00:52.160 --> 00:00:58.440 product so okay we do got ear tips and there's some instructions in there too 00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:04.040 how many sizes of ear tips do we get they are silicone which I would expect 00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:09.759 and you get the size that's on the bud which looks like Medium as well as a 00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:14.880 smaller and a larger and they match the color that you bought the buds 00:01:11.880 --> 00:01:17.759 themselves glossy hard plastic injection 00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:22.640 molded stem design they're only glossy on this part the stem is actually matte 00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:27.200 there's some symbols on here I don't know what they mean these pop off yep 00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:30.479 normal kind of standard there's three microphones on each one we will do a mic 00:01:29.320 --> 00:01:36.159 test later there's a little dot up here that could potentially be a mic there's one over 00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:40.040 here where that looks a little bigger it might be a vent for the drivers but for 00:01:38.360 --> 00:01:43.799 sure these two dots at the end of the stems are going to be two out of your 00:01:41.720 --> 00:01:48.200 three mics there's two drivers actually there's a bigger one and a small one 00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:51.240 it's 11 mm driver and then a 6 mm driver and we're going to see how they sound 00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:56.560 later on kind of cool how they fit in there kind of just flip on top like that 00:01:54.360 --> 00:02:02.039 magnetic kind of looks like it's agnostic but it ain't not only does it 00:01:59.360 --> 00:02:06.159 not close properly if you screw it up but you can see that the Pogo pins won't 00:02:04.479 --> 00:02:10.200 align because they're on the inside of the stem and right there and when you 00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:14.959 put the wrong stem on there they are just not aligned they're rotated off by 00:02:12.640 --> 00:02:18.760 like 50° or something is there an indicator on the stem of which one's the 00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:25.440 right side usually nothing does like a big red dot but on 00:02:22.519 --> 00:02:29.519 here they look identical it's a square design USBC charging has a indicator 00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:33.680 light on it for pairing and stuff what's unique about the case is that it 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:38.800 actually has this control on it this dial satisfyingly 00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:42.760 tactile it spins infinitely in either direction why do I need this there's 00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:46.400 always some false negatives when you're trying to deal with the buttons on an 00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:49.760 earphone you click it it doesn't work I have to click it again and then it turns 00:02:47.480 --> 00:02:54.319 out to be a double click next song sucks so maybe this is a godsend let's get 00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:57.879 these in my ear holes pretty good seal I'm getting a decent amount of passive 00:02:56.120 --> 00:03:01.519 isolation my voice sounds different to me things seem a little quieter out here 00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:06.000 this is what they look like oh I think that wasn't passive 00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:12.319 isolation I think that was active noise cancelling I pulled it out and everything 00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:14.920 changed James's famous Shake test they I 00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:18.840 mean they're really in there IP rating though I would say the standard IP 00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:23.799 rating for truly wireless earbuds is usually IP X4 which means that the X 00:03:21.920 --> 00:03:29.239 means they did not test it or get a rating for ingress protection of dust 00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:34.840 and debris uh and then the four would be splashes and stuff these are 55 which is 00:03:32.040 --> 00:03:38.799 pretty good I'd like to see 65 cuz there's lots of devices that have the 00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:43.560 six the highest rating for dust but it's nice that they have a rating at all and 00:03:41.040 --> 00:03:46.319 then for the five water protection normally with a four you're just saying 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:50.000 hey that's that's going to be good for like sweat at the gym and I guess you 00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:54.680 could wear them in the rain like you would hope but the five gets you like 00:03:51.920 --> 00:03:58.239 sprays from any angle sprays of water for 3 minutes so I mean you could 00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:01.720 probably get away with wearing these in the shower unless you like freaking 00:04:00.200 --> 00:04:05.920 really were shooting at them for your whole shower your shower I kind of 00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:09.959 wanted to wear them in the shower the other day man I was I was like I don't 00:04:08.040 --> 00:04:13.000 have a lot of time and I love listening to a podcast or something with that 00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:17.239 found time you know when you're washing dishes and stuff like that might be nice 00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:20.600 something I really care about with my earphones is the interface and messing 00:04:19.320 --> 00:04:25.479 with that stuff is typically when I like to listen to them for the first time so we'll do all that right after this 00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:30.320 message from our sponsor thanks to Corsair for sponsoring

00:05:00.320 --> 00:05:05.639 all right nothing X start I've actually 00:05:03.840 --> 00:05:09.840 never really seen this before it had issues pairing automatically and then it 00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:13.840 has this kind of troubleshooting flow now where I can choose which earphone 00:05:11.880 --> 00:05:18.560 I'm having trouble pairing and it's this one and now wow I don't need this it 00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:23.000 gives me the instructions right here open the case without removing the buds 00:05:20.479 --> 00:05:27.160 which I did locate the button inside the case and hold it for two seconds that 00:05:25.280 --> 00:05:31.080 little can you even see how discreet this little button is yes I see it how 00:05:29.880 --> 00:05:35.840 does it know they're blue is that a happy 00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:39.680 accident super slick interface all right we're connected and I got my battery 00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:44.000 level for each earbud right there got a cool visualization smart dial I'm 00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:48.680 interested in this feature set up smart dial for more features let's try it oh 00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:54.919 this is the Smart dial when I read smart dial I thought it 00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:58.199 was a way to dial people's numbers 00:05:54.919 --> 00:06:00.120 smartly so you can actually get a press 00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:05.360 a double press a triple press a press and hold and the rotate and looks like 00:06:02.840 --> 00:06:10.000 by default there's just no action and it's nice that that's an option because 00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:12.919 it's kind of sensitive this could go off in your pocket and that would suck let's 00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:19.080 see what options you have for each one of these starting with the rotate which I think is the most interesting okay 00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:22.479 it's volume or nothing what about seek imagine if this is like your 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:29.720 iPod what the hell why can't I do 00:06:26.960 --> 00:06:34.319 anything okay well I can't edit any these I don't know why maybe it needs to 00:06:31.520 --> 00:06:38.919 be playing music first okay I got these in now let's try this again oh cool I 00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:44.440 can just select the earbud controls or the smart doll controls earbud 00:06:41.919 --> 00:06:50.680 controls I can choose right or left I can make them different wow this is like 00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:52.520 so so many options I like that you can 00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:57.199 really customize this transparency control you can choose whether or not it 00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:58.720 rotates through off which is dope double 00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:04.400 tap and hold is the only one that exposes volume I will make it up on the 00:07:01.440 --> 00:07:10.280 right and down on the left okay I could change those can I change this 00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:12.440 now I can what was the difference I put 00:07:10.280 --> 00:07:15.680 them in my ear maybe it was bugging out before maybe you need to have them in 00:07:13.599 --> 00:07:20.520 your ear I don't know you can make it turn on low lag mode on and off which is 00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:24.560 cool oh look at that you can actually have chat GPT as your voice assistant 00:07:22.520 --> 00:07:28.360 which is pretty cool I believe that is only supported on specific nothing 00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:31.000 phones and it looks like you have to have it installed too I wish wish that 00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:35.840 was a link that I can just go and install it uh I want to try that so I'm 00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:39.960 going to get that now okay that appears to be set up now I think maybe I'll 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:44.400 close the app launch it 00:07:42.039 --> 00:07:46.759 again I did see this pop up before but it got dismissed but it's here again 00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:54.159 which is good enabling seamless interaction with chat GPT as a custom voice AI while on the Move let's try it 00:07:51.599 --> 00:07:58.599 chat GPT is there now finally let's listen to these 00:07:55.599 --> 00:08:01.280 things whoa these are base heavy holy 00:07:58.599 --> 00:08:06.280 cow all Al they seem to be like blasting right now let's try turn it down okay 00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:11.720 this is kind of annoying there is a volume sound like 00:08:08.840 --> 00:08:17.440 boop boop boop with each step but there's a lag in the volume sound so if 00:08:13.960 --> 00:08:19.319 I go like it only makes one Boop sound 00:08:17.440 --> 00:08:22.759 even though I went like 10 steps and that Boop sound is like pretty delayed 00:08:21.280 --> 00:08:29.840 so it's kind of bizarre holy cow is this the is this the 00:08:26.520 --> 00:08:31.360 default curve this is not space I some 00:08:29.840 --> 00:08:35.640 people are really going to like this but this is like definitely overcooked 00:08:33.640 --> 00:08:40.200 compared to what the artist intended I should note now that these have direct 00:08:37.839 --> 00:08:44.080 optio on them and dur obviously comes from the home theater space you can get 00:08:41.719 --> 00:08:47.720 an AVR that has dra room correction on it and they are respected brand in that 00:08:45.839 --> 00:08:53.320 space they know what they're doing this product is to help optimize sound using 00:08:50.839 --> 00:08:58.920 high resolution filters in headphones and in your car in other products they 00:08:55.360 --> 00:09:01.839 allow a brand to Simply use dra's own 00:08:58.920 --> 00:09:05.600 Target curve curve or the brand own Target curve and in this case I'm pretty 00:09:04.040 --> 00:09:10.040 sure they're using the Brand's Target curve because this is far from accurate 00:09:07.920 --> 00:09:15.920 that's not to say you don't like it you know different strokes but it ain't flat 00:09:12.680 --> 00:09:18.519 man how loud does this go way loud I 00:09:15.920 --> 00:09:22.720 don't even want to go all the way yeah this is going to hurt me that's for sure 00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:26.360 let's see how the volume works on here okay it worked but it was pretty 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:30.920 slow I didn't think it was going to work at first so I'm double tap and hold 00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:36.760 this is just straight up not working that's why they have the dial cuz the 00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:41.720 interface sucks on the buds yeah this interface sucks it appears that the top 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:47.240 of the stem is is really where the read is yeah right here this from here up 00:09:44.920 --> 00:09:52.959 you're you're better off let's check out some EQ options in the app 00:09:50.760 --> 00:09:57.160 equalizer whoa they got the dra one right 00:09:54.680 --> 00:10:01.360 there and then here's custom they do give you the plus 6 DB 00:09:59.880 --> 00:10:08.120 I mean honestly with the base turned all the way down it's still 00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:10.640 normal when you crank it it is 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:14.360 thumpy I wish it showed those dials when you're on these other ones so you could 00:10:12.079 --> 00:10:21.160 get a sense of where they are but I expect that especially the optio one is 00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:25.160 probably tuned with a lot more granularity than those dots that we get 00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:28.880 exposed to in custom oh they do give you a little Cloud for the other ones 00:10:27.160 --> 00:10:34.200 interestingly you can switch between these so quickly but when you go to opio 00:10:32.800 --> 00:10:38.360 it takes longer and actually interrupts the music for a second I love this song 00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:41.120 it's got a really good flam I love a good flam you know what that is it's 00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:44.639 when you take both drumsticks you make them a little offset and then you hit 00:10:42.680 --> 00:10:49.440 the drum with it so they go yeah this much bass is just not right 00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:54.320 for metal but they really dancable they sound great putting you in rock mode 00:10:51.360 --> 00:11:00.360 really made it crunchier oh I don't like this Rocky Q check out the delay on this 00:10:56.839 --> 00:11:00.360 uh button here 00:11:00.760 --> 00:11:05.880 the music is starting even later than you can see the visualization go it's 00:11:03.760 --> 00:11:12.320 like music's playing now stop let's talk battery life claims 00:11:09.680 --> 00:11:18.440 they got 60 Milah hours on the buds and 460 Mah hours in the case that'll net 00:11:15.040 --> 00:11:20.480 you 43 hours of play back with no a ANC 00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:25.279 on with including you know charging it through the case which is 11 hours on 00:11:22.920 --> 00:11:29.959 the buds themselves however I almost always use a andc and that will net me 6 00:11:27.959 --> 00:11:36.160 and 1/2 hours on the buz and 26 uh all told 10 minutes of 00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:39.240 charging gets you 3 hours no ANC or 1.8 00:11:36.160 --> 00:11:42.120 hours do that conversion to minutes 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:47.320 yourself with ANC I'm not in a great environment to assess the quality of the 00:11:43.959 --> 00:11:49.040 ANC what I can say is it sounds normal 00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:53.200 you know it's kind of table Stakes on a lot of earbuds now I mean these These 00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:57.120 are 60 bucks and they have them and they have this chat GPT thing which is 00:11:55.519 --> 00:12:01.160 interesting to me and I want to try just very briefly it seems like it just 00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:05.000 launches the app I'm not hearing anything in my ears at all it's just 00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:08.240 telling me there that I can't have chat GPT on when I hold down this but a 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:13.079 different assistant when I hold down that it's one assistant for all let's 00:12:10.800 --> 00:12:13.079 see what 00:12:14.760 --> 00:12:19.920 happens yeah apparently the assistant button just launches the whatever 00:12:18.199 --> 00:12:25.519 assistant on your phone and does nothing in the buds uh not sure what's up with 00:12:22.880 --> 00:12:29.680 that okay I did hear it say here's what I found on the web in the buds but it 00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:35.360 never went like what's up or like boink or anything like that hello how are 00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:39.600 you I'm great thanks for asking I can hear it but like there's there's no way 00:12:37.160 --> 00:12:44.360 to know that it's even listening that is unfortunate I don't expect that to be 00:12:41.839 --> 00:12:49.639 normal I'm assuming there's something wrong right now with our setup or our 00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:52.279 firmware or it's a bug de fix it's not 00:12:49.639 --> 00:12:57.240 working right now um overall take on these things 60 bucks or 90 Canadian 00:12:55.360 --> 00:13:01.079 these are really great value the build quality is cool the sound quality is not 00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:06.000 bad at all it's definitely
