If you were to use these for riding outdoors, you'd need to turn the Transparent mode off so you'd be pretty much isolated from traffic sounds. The mics pick up too much wind-crackle for that. This is fine for a lot of things but it won't let you hear the traffic around you while cycling outside. Transparent modeĪnd what about the Transparent mode? It works by taking some feed from the built-in microphones and mixing it into the audio so you can hear what is going on around you. I left them turned off (the default setting) while training and couldn't hear the turbo even with music at a reasonably low level – just the sound of a loud freehub when I stopped pedalling. I didn't use these noise reduction features much. They can muck up the audio in certain environments, though, making it sound like it's coming up through the plug hole in a sink. These noise reduction modes aren't perfect but they do help to remove background sounds. well, you can probably work that one out for yourself. The app also allows you to choose different levels of active noise cancelling (ANC): Strong to eliminate most external noise, Mild to filter out human voices, and Wind Noise Resistance, which. There are quite a few different options available to you.
If you prefer, you can double tap the right earbud to increase volume and double tap the left one to reduce it, or set it so that double tapping allows you to move to previous/next tracks. You can, though customise these settings via 1More's smartphone app. It also allows you to pause and play your audio. 'Double tap' lets you answer or end a phone call. 'Touch and hold' switches between Active Noise Reduction, Transparent and Off modes, for example. Several functions can be operated via the 'touch area' on the back of the earbuds while they're in place. They keep on performing no matter how much sweat you send their way. I've not had this happen at all with the 1More Comfobuds Minis. One thing I've experienced with some sports earbuds is a temporary drop in volume caused by sweat covering the sound filter even when no moisture is getting inside. More significantly, it means that they should be sweatproof, and I've found that to be the case. The earbuds have an IPX5 rating meaning that they're protected against low pressure water stream. Remember when we had the record UK temperature? All my riding for a few weeks was in the garage from hell recovering from a wrist operation.
I didn't find myself needing to dab at them so that they'd stay securely in position either, and I promise you, I've had some super-hot turbo sessions this summer. I expected them to fall out sooner or later when mashing out a sweaty session on the turbo but, fair play, that never happened. I picked the ones that felt most comfortable and that was sufficient for me. With the 1More Comfobuds Minis you get several different sized silicone tips to fit different ear anatomies.
You really don't want earbuds to come out unexpectedly because, without wires to tether them to your device, they could end up anywhere. Most earbuds that I've used for sport have had some sort of fin or arm to hold them in place, but you don't get anything of that kind here. I can't say I'm especially fussed either way about the size and weight of wireless earbuds but these are way smaller and lighter than others I've used.

Each one is less than 4g, while we weighed the case at 35g – so the two earbuds plus the case come in at under 43g. The earbuds themselves aren't a regular shape but their maximum dimensions are 17 x 15 x 13mm. It wouldn't be fair if we judged them in a scenario for which they're not intended, so we stuck to the indoor trainer with these.ġMore claims its Comfobuds Minis are the 'world's smallest active noise cancelling earbuds' and they really are tiny. I ride outside while wearing earbuds a lot – sue me – but the safety instructions for these earbuds say 'Do not use in traffic'. The battery life is reasonable, and you're getting good value for money here.īefore we get going, let's make it clear that we've been reviewing these while on the turbo. The 1More Comfobuds Mini earbuds are exceptionally small and light and provide decent if unexceptional audio for your turbo sessions while being unaffected by sweat.
