These are really good for the price and ranked as the best under $100 headphones by SoundGuys.
Gonna pick these up as a beater anc headset to keep in my backpack for traveling.

for traveling? dont think so, sis
I own this and open run and open run mini. Open run mini fits me perfectly, and I prefer that over the move. Open move is a little stiffer than open run, so the fit is not as good in my experience. Open run sounds noticeably better than open move imo. But the open move has USB-C while the runs have a proprietary magnetic charger, which is a big win for the move.
I tried these years ago before buying original Airpods and they made my ears tickle when listening to music. Do these newer ones still have that issue or is that something that can't really be solved due to the bone conduction?

oH, I've seen multiple reviews on YouTube talk about how the 2.0's were able to solve this. Worth a watch.
