Cherry Bullet deserve a mention for sure. I've never seen Bora skip a line and all her parts are generally really hard + choreos are not trivially easy either. But the entire group is quite good.

With NMIXX I'm not sure. Obviously if you can trust what we are being shown and what we hear then they are the best by a landslide but the issue is that sometimes it's a bit too good to be true. If I listen to their O.O MR removed with supposed live vocals and compared it to them singing on VLIVE (2 different occasions) standing still there are far more imperfections while standing still compared to the MR removed while dancing intense choreo - something tells me that is simply not possible. You can also see that they actually have to focus to sing the songs on VLIVE and it shows on their faces. There's very clearly a lot of prerecorded and lipsynced parts in their music show stages at least. They've also lipsynced on radio live - something that other groups received tons of hate for. Almost every single group has done this at some point.

I'll give you a concrete example of the overhyping and hypocrisy:

Tons of views, every single top comment is praising their live vocals. This stage is mostly lipsync and only a single word or two at a time are sung loudly. It's hard to find someone singing a full line live in this performance, it's always just a few words.

There's nothing wrong with this, this is the norm when performing to intense choreo. Almost every single group is doing this. You sing what is possible and skip the rest. But if discussing who has the best live singing then you should judge it based on performances that are near 100% live performed and not on how good they are at shouting out 1-3 words at the end of a line.

So where does this leave us? NMIXX is generally considered to have the best live vocals of the 4th gen with performances mostly using prerecorded vocals and as low as 20% of the lines being actually sung while a group like Cherry Bullet that put on an extremely impressive live performances during intense choreo with 95%+ lines sung are not even considered to be in the same league and rarely even mentioned

That being said NMIXX is one of my favorite groups and in my opinion THE most talented group, not only in vocals but in general. I would never drag them in any way, just trying to bring another perspective to this. It is the correct decision by the companies to present flawless performances no matter what methods are used, there's a reason Cherry Bullet is pretty nugu and on the verge of disbandment - nobody actually cares about real live performances.

it might be me but i feel a lot of groups are using this technique of doing live with a little bit of lipsync here and there in the performance

i kinda had this feelings that some live performance aren't 100% live especially after i saw itzy cheshire live performance and their encore stage

Yeji and chaeryeong were struggling to reach the high note of the chorus during the encore stage stage, especially yeji it was obvious that she was really struggling

but in the live performance they were able to reach this note with ease and no problem when they are dancing etc...

so i wouldn't be surprise if lip sync decrease but we get more live/lip sync performance
