#26 Jabra Evolve2 Buds: $351.99 TWS Amazon $351.99 eBay
Pros: Business earbuds with ANC and IP57 protection whose preference score of 84 puts them among the best measured true wireless sets. Deviation is a low 1.33 dB, and sub bass through the midrange stays within 1.5 dB of target, so voices on calls and music both sound natural. Battery life is 8 hours, 33 with the case, with SBC and AAC.
Cons: A 4.8 dB peak near 7.3 kHz next to a 4.6 dB dip near 8.9 kHz can make sibilants a little uneven. They cost far more than the QCY HT05 MeloBuds ANC, which scores just as well, and the score rests on a single measurement.

Frequency Response
How the Jabra Evolve2 Buds 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 filk. Thanks to them for publishing their work.
