Light, soft pads; small on-ear cups not for all

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

  • Layered, clear sound at normal volume
  • About 50 h in their use; quick 10-min top-up
  • Stable multipoint pairing
  • Soft pads, cups fold flat
  • More depth than expected, decent bass and clear vocals
  • About 50 h battery, quick charge
  • Multipoint and a wired option

Cons

  • Bass and stage shrink when loud
  • Wireless mic hard for callers to hear
  • Creaky plastic; no ANC
  • Muffled wireless calls (wired mic fine)
  • On-ear fit won't suit everyone
  • Light build feels a bit cheap; no ANC
  • Highs lack detail
  • TechRadarNov 2022

    A sound everyday budget pair with enormous battery; not for audiophiles and weak for calls.

  • T3Oct 2021

    Impressive for little money thanks to the battery; the wireless mic is the weak spot.

  • Audio46Jun 2022

    A good budget pick for easy listening; treble detail is where it falls short.
