Review on LG Tone Free FP5 - TWS Bluetooth Earbuds with Active Noise Cancelling, Meridian Sound, 3D Immersive Audio, and 3 Microphones by Richard Cheng

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great sound, trouble exercising

My first impression was that these are amazing headphones. The sound quality is comparable to similarly priced headphones like Airpods. In office environments, the active noise cancellation actually works decently. They can't match the noise cancellation but do an excellent job. My headphone issues came up during my first run with them and I was hoping that would be my primary use case. Unfortunately, I immediately stopped active use and docked two stars after this run: (1) The headphones did NOT stay in my ears while running. They started falling out within the first 10 yards of my run and kept falling out throughout the first mile before I gave them up. I'm tired of picking her out of the grass. (2) Active noise cancellation SIGNIFICANTLY amplifies wind noise when activated. Don't plan on using active noise cancellation in windy conditions. I really wanted to like these headphones and was initially impressed with their use at home. If you want to use them indoors, they can even be five star headphones. However, I would not recommend them for active or outdoor use. But that's just me. (I received this product in exchange for an honest review and I'm offering that here.)

Pros
