## IQbuds Reviews in United States

### *---- "Con man"
I bought these earbuds a couple years ago to help with my hearing loss in dealing with real estate clients from the moment I purchased these I regretted it. They were terrible. They never worked properly and had been a big waste of money thankfully, there’s other options available now, but I wish I was able to get my money back
-- Mrk1ngsir, 2025-04-04

### **--- "Great idea, but the app is buggy and frustrating"
This product is wireless… But the app is clearly under-developed and full of problems. The latest firmware release doesn’t work.
-- Schochohdude, 2021-10-17

### ***-- "The buds are great, app is frustrating"
I love the buds. Absolutely amazing for my kind of hearing issues. The app is frustrating in that the Ear ID process is lengthy, and anything that comes up while you’re doing it, like a call or anything that requires you to leave the app cancels the process and you have to start from scratch.

So I did it three times yesterday before I got an Ear ID, and now this morning I logged in and it has disappeared, so I have to do the process yet again.

Also, when you select a profile to change settings, most of the time it doesn’t actually switch to that profile, so changes you make don’t get pushed to the app, you have to quit the app and go back in to make it select it.

I hope they can fix these issues. It’s an otherwise great product.

### ***** "Much better than expected."
First, other than a purchaser, I do not have any connection with Nuheara.

I received my buds today. I ordered then on January 7, and have them today.

Positives:

Fresh out of the box, that had about 75% charge. Check.

Second, pairing with my phone was easy,. Check. 

Third, able to adjust the sounds both outside and from my phone. Check.

Forth, the carrying case with battery backup for more life without a wire. Check. By the way, the web site does state that these buds a episodic, meaning not for hours and hours of continuous use. Check.

Negatives:

Bose is the other company I have used. One can get about 10 hours of continuous use, or about 8 hours as headphones while listening to music. Also, the ear buds are attached to a collar that hold the battery and computer. 

So is the only negative I have so far. The buds drop out of my ears too easily. Especially in this day and age of using around-the-ear looped masks due to Covid. Putting a mask on and off is a chore with these buds. That is upsetting to me right now. As a crafter, I will developer a work-around such as a lanyard.  Bose on the other hand, if the bud falls out, it is attached to a wire, thus does not drop to the ground or run the risk of getting lost, as I have with other earphones.

Comparisons, Nuheara vs Bose

Both provide directional, volume and pitch control. Having used both, I feel they work about the same. Esthetically, Nuheara “looks” better. No collar or wires. Personally, as a woman, I don’t care about the collar. I have been surprised at the number of people who don’t even see it until I take the buds out, for example. 

Finally, Bose has stopped making their HearBuds, so I have no real choice but to go with something like Nuheara. This is no disrespect tot he company, just my preference as a frontline worker during this Covid pandemic, and not interested at all to lost these buds as they fall out too easily form my ears. But as I stated above, I will developer something that will at least prevent my losing them. (At $160 to replace, I don’t have that kind of money just laying around)
But Bose lasts longer, and much less worry of losing a bud
-- Java Grandma, 2021-01-16

### ***** "Excellent for those with hearing loss"
I have moderate to severe hearing loss and am always on the lookout for ear buds. I run 35 miles a week and need something reliable. 

I have the IQ Buds 2 Max and love them. They aren’t a replacement for my much more expensive Phonak Audeo Marvel 90s, but they are perfect for my daily runs.  The set up process to customize them to accommodate my hearing loss was quick and easy. The case keeps them charged and they came with a wide assortment of tips.  They don’t fall out even when I’m doing sprints.  I highly recommend them.
-- Running in PNC, 2020-10-25

### *---- "App is stuck"
I go through the First setup screens. It says connect to Bluetooth and come back. I do and I can’t get out of that screen or get to the app. Awful first experience.
-- jammin11, 2020-09-24

### **--- "Issues"
Due to COVID I waited 3 months from time I ordered. Unit arrived today with a necessary firmware update. Since updating the earbuds will cycle through modes while chewing food. The battery also cycles up and down at random. 2 stars until fixed.
-- BlackBox85, 2020-09-23

### *---- "When they work"
Sometimes don’t spend the money
-- Richsbike, 2020-08-24

### *---- "Videos (with audio) to set up earbuds, when the reason for buying them, was to improve hearing?"
I can barely understand a word in the video tutorials. Why would anyone think the spoken word was better than the printed word to impart information to folks whose hearing is buggered? I’ve been trying to set up my Boosts for over an hour. I couldn’t get phone support. I’m “this close” to returning them!
-- OyVey!, 2020-03-27

### **--- "Work well but connectivity is terrible"
The buds are hard to connect and then lose connectivity for no reason. When they do connect, often the app says they are not connected. Nice idea but a failure of execution
