Light, but clamp and warm pads tire several reviewers

Each part is rated on one scale for every earbud and headphone, from lab test measurements where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Very long battery, USB-C, cable for wired use
  • Light; easy to keep and repair
  • Mic rejects wind fairly well
  • Multipoint and Fast Pair
  • Spacious sound with punchy bass and clear vocals
  • Sounds tighter still on the cable
  • Around 60 h battery

Cons

  • Weak sub-bass, dull highs; sound only fair
  • Pads run tight and warm, big ears touch the drivers
  • No ANC, weak isolation
  • Voices sound thin on calls; low-latency mode barely helps
  • No ANC; buses and trains get through
  • Bluetooth volume ceiling is low
  • Beep at max volume interrupts music
  • SoundGuysFeb 2023

    Light, simple budget wireless pair with huge battery claims; sound is only decent and the pads trap heat.

  • What Hi-FiMay 2023

    Good value: spacious, punchy sound over Bluetooth and even better wired, but no noise cancelling for commuting.

  • Tom's GuideMay 2022

    Versatile, well-tuned sound and near-endless battery, held back by a tiring fit and weak isolation.

  • Outlook BusinessNov 2022

    Indian review: rich, balanced sound and great battery, but build and outdoor calls disappoint for the Rs 13,500 MRP.

  • Expert ReviewsJul 2022

    A mixed bag: detailed, wide sound for the money, let down by comfort, isolation and the app.
