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

  • Head-tracked spatial audio feels surprisingly immersive for the money
  • Loud, generally pleasant sound once set to the Balanced EQ
  • ANC blocks voices and street noise well, useful transparency mode
  • Comfortable and stays in
  • Simple app, multipoint worked smoothly
  • Battery lasted a week of about four hours a day
  • Smooth, immersive spatial audio that works even without the app

Cons

  • Bass gets muddy and distorts when turned up
  • Some vocals distort
  • High-pitched sounds slip past the ANC
  • Answering calls was clumsy
  • Full charge takes about two hours
  • Case has no magnetic lid and the white model picks up dirt
  • Heavy bass muddies vocals and instruments
  • Fine for casual listeners on a budget, with convincing head-tracked spatial audio as the main draw; bass lovers and fussy listeners should look elsewhere.

  • A cheap way to get smooth head-tracked spatial audio and strong ANC, but rivals like the Realme Buds Air 6 sound richer.

  • EditorjiSep 2024

    Good mix of features and price: bassy but clear sound, impressive spatial audio and solid battery, let down by comfort over long sessions.
