Who wins on what

Ranked by what users actually praise

Overall Impression

Affordable option with fit improvements over the original Copenhagen. One commenter says the Copenhagen 2 is more reliable than Apple's earbuds and even cheaper, positioning it as a budget-friendly choice. Another notes the original Copenhagen felt too big and fell out constantly, while the Copenhagen 2 fixes that fit issue. The same commenter adds that sound quality and battery life beat Urbanista's Austin model, suggesting Urbanista improved on its own earlier designs. For buyers frustrated with oversized earbuds or looking for a cheaper alternative to premium brands, these comments suggest the Copenhagen 2 is a reasonable pick worth considering.

Reliability problems plague some units, especially with pairing. Multiple users report serious connectivity failures: one had either earbud randomly stop working, with factory resets failing nine times out of ten and support unable to help beyond suggesting the same reset. Another commenter says only their right earbud works and nothing re-pairs them together. These reports point to inconsistent Bluetooth pairing and possible hardware faults that persist even after extended charging, suggesting quality control issues that potential buyers should weigh against the earbuds' affordability and fit advantages.

Left earbud defects and tip dependence raise durability concerns. Separate from pairing issues, users report the left earbud running noticeably quieter than the right, and another whose left earbud stopped charging after the case took a physical blow. A different commenter also warns that removing the rubber ear tips causes sound quality to suffer, implying the fit and seal of those tips matter significantly to performance. Together these reports suggest the earbuds can be fragile in ways that affect both audio balance and charging reliability.
