There’s a Dutch weather man who reviews a crazy amount of earbuds as a hobby. They’re all Bluetooth ones though. I found that you get better quality for a similar price if you get a wired one.
Anyway, recommend that you check out https://www.scarbir.com/
He has lists per price range, but also recommendations per usage type. E.g. I bought ones that were less affected by wind noise (during a call).
Are you after wireless or wired earbuds? And what kind of music do you generally listen to?
I will only buy wireless ones, and I think that I just need the best that I could get in most categories, good ANC, good sound…

Skullcandy has been a good experience. Cheap and durable. I’ve had two, a pair of Smokin’ Buds 2 (died from a broken cable, now discontinued), and a pair of Jib True (my current earbuds).
I bought the Jib True five years ago for about $40 and so far they’ve survived a dog, getting dropped in the toilet, and multiple drops onto a hard surface. I haven’t noticed any battery degradation. The audio quality is kinda mid (I used them in a factory at my previous job) and I can’t speak for the microphone, but they’ve served me well. My biggest issue has been some oxidation on the charging pins and contacts.
Seconded.
I’ve got a pair of Skullcandy Mods. The sound quality is decent but not stellar, battery life is good, charge time is good and they feel pretty solidly made. Pretty good deal for $40 on Amazon.
I previously had some of their ANC overears that while not spectacular, were much better than I expected given the price point.
Beats fit pro are good but pricy. You can always buy second hand/refurbished from eBay.
