Pros: Premium ANC earbuds with aptX Adaptive, IP57 protection and a preference score of 81, with deviation from target at a low 1.56 dB. Upper bass and lower mids sit within 1.5 dB of target for natural voices, and battery life is 8 hours, 28 with the case.

Frequency Response
How the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Eleven measures across the audible range, against the Harman in-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is a single measurement, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: a single measurement from the squig.link database of dhrme. Thanks to them for publishing their work.
