So what makes these Status Earbuds stand out from other earbuds on the market? Lets start with the 20–100hz of bass frequency that does a great job of mimicking the feeling of hearing live music in person.  The first few times I ran with the Status Between 3ANC Earbuds in I could literally feel the bass all the way down my chest with every stride I took. Each time my feet hit the ground it seemed to amplify the vibration even more.

In total Status

Combine that with the noise cancelling element and well you really lock into whatever your listening too when these are in your ears.

Noise Cancelling

Earbuds with 3 Drivers
3 Drivers for Optimal Sound | Keegan Rice Mountain Weekly News

Wearing noise canceling headphones in a recording studio vs outdoors took some time to get use to.  On the trail as I ran by people I felt at times like I might have been talking really low as I really couldn’t hear myself and didn’t want to over due it by screaming.

On the flip side I don’t know if I would have been able to hear someone coming up from behind me on the trail. However, there is a solution to the combination of heavy natural bass and the noise cancelling component by using the Status Transparency Mode, a feature that allows environmental sounds to come in alongside the audio.

When you wear the Status Between 3ANC Wireless Earbuds that sound is soo clear you truly feel like you’ve been transported into a live music event, a music festival or even recording studio wearing over ear monitors.

Pairing

Pairing Earbuds to App

I ran into a bit of problems pairing the device to my phone or maybe wasn’t patient enough. But once everything was in place I was able to access my music library and play it via the wireless earbuds.

Charging

The Status Between 3ANC Earbuds c0me with a hard-shell clam case that works for transporting them and also doubles as a charger. Normally I don’t get too excited about cases but this one’s unique in size and shape, and is about twice the size of an AirPods case.

If the Terminator was to rock wireless earbuds, they would surely be Between 3ANC’s. With a futuristic look and feel these are not your parents old AirPods.

The part that does into your ears is fairly standard, where the real fun happens is in the case that holds the drivers. People will notice these and ask about them for sure.

Great Sounding Earbuds
The Clean Look, Easy to Travel with Case and Amazing Sound Make These Some of the Top Rated Earbuds on the Market | Keegan Rice Mountain Weekly News

Normally it’s hard for me to get excited about a new product I’m testing, like over joyed excited. However the first time I heard my favorite tracks on my playlist come through sounding the best they have especially when compared to my car stero or tv at home thanks to the Statue Between 3ANC Earbuds I knew I had found a company delivery some seriouslly incredible sound at a consumer friendly price.

Having worked in the music industry and listened to bands through in-ear monitors wearing Status Between 3ANC ($249.99) is about as close as you can get to having true band quality audio without being on stage.
