Each part is measured the same way for every model (from specs and lab test measurements where they exist) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Plain USB-C plug works with many devices
  • Simple inline volume and play controls with mic
  • Nothing to set up
  • Calls among the clearest in its group
  • Clear treble that never turns harsh
  • Feels sturdy; tactile remote buttons
  • Open fit lets you hear surroundings

Cons

  • Thin bass and weak vocals; leaks sound
  • Hard shell with no tips, falls out during exercise
  • Did not work with some Android phones
  • Muffled, thin sound with weak bass and small stage
  • Quiet, and channels were slightly uneven
  • Hard plastic fit, falls out when active
  • Voice cut out in a noisy subway test
  • SoundGuysJul 2025

    Fine only if you want the cheapest plug-in buds for a USB-C iPhone; they will not match better earphones and don't work with every phone.

  • TechGearLabMay 2026

    Durable and good for calls, but only worth it for Apple fans who like an open fit; other buds sound better for the money.

  • TechRadarNov 2024

    Pretty solid for the low price, provided you don't need ear tips (read via an inkl syndicated copy).
