I am so glad I saw this video. I have just begun mowing our large yard and have been so bored with ear plugs! Thank you for this informative video! I have been on the fence as to what to do about it and your video helped my choice. Thanks!!

I have owned these earbuds for at least 2 years, they are awesome. I live in Florida, so ear muffs are just not an option (the cups fill with sweat) I have two pair, one in my shop, the other at home. The home ones get used weekends when mowing, pressure washing, etc. Pro Tip: they are the BEST on an airplane! Block out babies, annoying conversations, and listen to your music, movies, whatever. Unlike headsets, these store in a pocket sized hard case, and the battery lasts way longer than the 10 hours that IsoTunes claims. I can easily get 15-20 hours of listening time.

I have two pairs of these. Always have a pair in the truck charging ready to go so when one pair dies I swap them out and have constant entertainment and hearing protection. Absolute must have.

I always enjoy your videos. As a small business owner myself of heating and cooling company. Your content is very relevant. Thank you

They are on my wish list! Great video!

Best tool reviews period!

Hey thanks for the no bull review, I’m buying them now.

I learned about these headphones from Anna of all trades. Good headphone 🎧. Definitely a Christmas 🎄 present.

Thanks for the helpful review

I have a pair of raycon 50 earbuds. I usually use one at a time for phone calls, and then put a regular ear plug in the other ear when I am needing hearing protection, it makes it a little easier to hear conversation with someone. Don't listen to music much when I work.

I have the 2.0 Pro’s and the wireless. Me personally didn’t think I was going to like the wireless but they are my go to know.

Went out and upgraded to the 2.0 pro today, after, my original iso tunes pro’s which I’ve had for 2 years, there was nothing wrong with them, then they decided to melt while charging the other night even tho I’ve used that exact cable and 5amp charging cube every time since I got them to charge them, so regardless, I needed a new pair and I got a deal on them at my local woodworking store, back in the game again, what was said is true I considered the wireless ones but I would totally lose them, and I also tuck the buds in my collar when they aren’t in my ears, but they usually are because I use these every single day almost all day listening to the radio programs I like while I am working, the bigger square case is also a nice upgrade than the previous small circle one as well everything fits much easier and less smooshed which I really didn’t like about the last case but I wanted my investment protected, if I get 2 solid years out of these totally worth it and I’ll upgrade to the next version when these die

Great review. Subbed.

Ohhhhh now your thinking

I just got a pair of these about a month ago i love them battery life is unbelievable!!! I love them they are around my neck everyday and i find myself using them to protect my hearing when i would never take the time to put plugs in.

Exactly what I was looking for! I will be operating a tractor, chainsaw, and other small engines and power tools. Music loudness and quality come second, hearing first.

i have purhcased a set of these alomst 12 months ago, and aside from hearing the phone ring through them, people cannot hear me when i'm talking, they say it sounds like im underwater, wether there is noise around or not. with the hefty little price tag on them i am reluctant to buy another pair if it's the same story. is it possible i just got a dodgy pair? i would really like them to work properly instead of taking them off, cancelling bluetooth and finishing phone call on the headset instead. any advice or experience is much appreciated.

I purchased the galaxy buds plus. I like them for the jobsite because you can control the ambient sound thru the earbuds. So I'm not completely cut off from hearing everything around me on the jobsite. I'm gonna look into the ones in this video as well

What?... I can’t her Rob... what’d he say?.... damn I should had protected my hearing more when I was young. Some tell him he should review hearing protection... could be beneficial

Can we take moment and appreciate the pun of that portapotty “The Throne Depot” out here on the west coast we don’t have that one. LOL

Apparently, I have the iso tunes Pro 1.0 and I have been more disappointed then satisfied with these buds. I find the blue tooth range terrible, I even have troubles with the sound cutting out when I have the phone in my pants pockett opposite the power button. People who call me usually have a hard time hearing me with or without background noise. It could be my Note 8, but I have other cheap wireless buds with way better Bluetooth range. Im going to run them with a new iPhone and see if it improves but I'm not sure they will. Either way keep up the great reviews!

I have 2 pairs of the 2.0's. Always have a set charging in the truck. I like literally can't work without them at this point. I'm a carpenter. Noise protection, I can listen to whatever I want, I can answer phone calls and keep working while I'm talking. Literally must have tool on the job site

I have the older model. They were awesome but not dog proof. I did buy them again though. Defiantly worth the $70.

What did you say there was too much noise around you haha 🍻🥃

Been playing bass in loud bands and working on construction sites for35+years. I dont know how I can still hear😱 I still almost never remember hearing protection unless something is gonna be real bad. Old school muffs for me. Hate ear buds. Put that festool impact to the test when u can. If you haven't already. Thumbs up for the video regardless

I get wax buildup when using earbuds. I bought the 3M Worktunes which are Bluetooth earmuffs. I got to say working all day listening to audiobooks or to music makes a huge difference to the noise of a sander and dust collector The only thing is that when a call comes in you need to remember about all that noise and that you are wearing them

@@scottjohnson5828 I like ear muffs over plugs. I like them but I never used the ISOTunes earbuds so I can't comment on them. What I can tell you is that I can't hear the dust collector and some of the machines when they are running. Is that a good thing or a bad thing I don't know.

Yo compré unos pensando que eran buenos, el primero que llegó cargo 1 vez y luego ya no cargo, después me llegó otro en garantía pero con quien hablaba no me entendían nada como que el micrófono tenía algún problema cuando hay ruido, me mandaron el tercer juego y la verdad estoy buscando vendérselos por lo que no he probado porque me da miedo que salgan mal, así que quiero recuperar algo del dinero, si alguien le interesan los vendo en 1800 pesos, 90usd

I have the gift of selective hearing 😁

Are the earbuds replaceable ?

I wasn't a fan of them. Sure, they're nice, but the cheap earbuds I have provided the same amount of noise reduction. The thing I don't like is because it wraps around your ear, it's not as easy to take on and off. To me, I hate wearing earbuds while talking to someone or while eating. Basically, I like to take them in and out often. Also, noise cancellation doesn't really do much for whoever calls you... I won't buy them again, way too expensive.

The only problem i have with the 2.0s is trying to wear glasses too

Is this good when I'm running a chainsaw out in the woods?

I have fien multimaster that is 15 years old, I call it” THE DEFINATOR”😆

The microphone is terrible for me, on other side cannot listen me well

Ive had these for about 2 weeks now and honestly … theyre just okay. Volume is too low The microfone is absolutely TERRIBLE Noise canceling could be better (im currently looking for better foam tips) Battery life is GREAT

No possibile to hear music during using anything making noise. Very expensive ear protection, very weak to music. Talking by phone also only in quiet place.

Now that Google and Apple have both put contact tracing on their phones that rely on bluetooth, I can see less people even turning BT on. I have a pair of $400 Bose headphones and i don't want to use them much anymore for this reason. Some of us still value privacy, even though you have to fight for it these days.

Right, a typical case of "I've heard about it, but don't know about it". The status indicator you see on your phone for both bluetooth and WiFi only indicate if the functionality is available. It doesn't completely shut down either functionality. For example: newer Android phones can turn WiFi on automatically when you're near a network you've been on in the past. How it does that? It periodically turns on to check the surrounding networks. Similar things happen for bluetooth. Put bluntly: You simply can not claim to value privacy, and use a smartphone at the same time, that's just pure hypocrisy. If you value privacy, like most oldschool people think about it, you can't use any electronic device with a microprocessor. However, privacy is misunderstood, mostly by those who claim to value it so much. Privacy means that your neighbours don't see you naked, because you have curtains, or don't know about your sexual fantasies, because they can't access your browsing history. It doesn't mean that your phone's data can't be used for statistical tracking. If that upsets you, you should also be upset about voting. After all, you as a person get counted, so they know what percentage of people voted. Unless somebody is directly tracking you as a person (like a spouse), your privacy is not being harmed at all. If you're worried about a business scanning the area and storing a reference value for your phone, you should be even more worried about every single security camera and every single person you see. After all, a security camera can uniquely identify you very easily, and every single person who looks at you can give a description of you. The data they store from your phone is just a unique identifier, which is extremely difficult to trace back to you. The only thing they (usually) know about you, is how often you've visited their location. Now, if you're worried about your phone itself tracking you (like Google Maps Timeline), simply don't use a smartphone. You can turn these features off, but if you're worried about something like this, you're probably not gonna believe that they don't track you when you do turn them off, so not using a smartphone is the only solution. TL;DR: Worry about actual privacy, in real life, instead of worrying about an anonymised reference value that could potentially be traced back to you, with a lot of effort. Unless you never leave your house, privacy is an illusion.
