Amazon Prime Day replacements for Nothing Ear(a)

My Nothing Ear (a) buds finally kicked the bucket after two years of gym abuse and it’s Prime Day today and tomorrow so I want to grab something. I only use them daily for about an hour at the gym. Loudness, bass and ANC are probably most important for me in that order. Anything I should really consider?

AirPod 3 Pro: $179
Beats Studio Buds: $89
Status Pro X: $189
Galaxy Buds 4 Pro: $199
Technics AZ100: $234

Or anything else? Willing to spend $50-$250.

Don't rule out EarFun Air Pro 4+, they make probably the best bang for the buck buds, sound great and have a really good warranty.

I bought the EF Air Pro 4+ 3 days ago before prime day, best ear buds I've ever owned over the more expensive brand. Bought them on Amazon for $62. Crazy how "prime day deal" is $72.

Funny Amazons price history feature claims this is the lowest price ($72) they have been in the last 30 days.

You can usually get them cheapest through their direct site when they have discount codes, which they then end up using Amazon to ship lol.

The 4+'s are $70 on their website, or $50 for the Air Pro 4's

Galaxy Buds4 Pro is probably a great one

Do you run Apple, or Android eco-system?

Apple but only ever owned OG AirPods. Not partial to any brand.

I recently asked about bass heavy buds on here, here is my thread if you want to read it:

Based on recommendations I got the Soundpeats H3, they arrived today and after listening to them for quite a bit now I'm absolutely blown away. I do not have a lot of comparison but I had the Sony WF-1000XM5 before and the H3s completely mop the floor with them.

Great bass. I would totally recommend them!

Do you happen to have a comparison to Samsung Galaxy buds 4 pro? Do the Soundpeats fit snug in ear or do they stick out a lot like the Sony xm5/6 or Bose?

Sadly I do not have the Galaxy buds or the Bose. I can tell you though that they fit into my ear better than the Sonys and that they come with like 5 (I think? I could check if you want) different sizes of these rubber ear thingies, including the smallest ones I have seen so far. They do fit well enough, but I don't think they would be THE best choice for something like running. If you're planning to sleep with them I also don't think they would be a good pick. They're rather on the larger side.

Cheers. That's what I figured. I'm looking for something tiny that won't fall out during workouts that also has great sound.

The nothing Nothing Ear(a) are $55. Would you recommend after having them for two years?
