MODERATORS
I use the Google pixel buds pro 2 that I've had for a couple of years now, they still last about 6-8h before I need to pop them back in the case for a bit. I don't think the case has ever ran out on me.
The thing to remember with these is the battery is tiny, so if you want good battery life (and sound quality), you kinda need to spend a bit more than whatever the cheaper end is selling for or it will just contain the cheapest battery the manufacturer could fit in for the price.
Companies like Apple, Google, Sony etc don't want a reputation for worse battery life than the competition, so their prices will tend to reflect what you should expect to pay
Same... in fact, I just noticed that I've had my Pixel Buds Pros for 3 years today and they still have pretty decent battery. I rarely wear them for more than 3 hours at a time, but I do have a pair of Pixel Bud 2s that I keep around just in case I need to be on an extra long call.
I spent like less than $100 for the Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 so yea its considered budget.
