Tiny, light, secure ear hooks; fiddly to fit

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

  • Well built, very light and pocketable
  • Strong passive isolation for a non-ANC bud
  • Good accessory set incl. foam tips and case
  • Deep, weighty bass and rich, smooth mids
  • Excellent build and comfort; stays in once fitted
  • Low distortion, good tone and resolution
  • Small shells comfy for long sessions

Cons

  • Costly for what you get
  • No controls or mic
  • Foam tips tire the ears after about an hour
  • Bass crowds treble and blunts midrange clarity
  • Outdone for rhythm, dynamics and subtlety
  • No inline remote
  • Heavy bass masks lower mids
  • SoundGuysSep 2022

    For people who take music seriously and want wired, audio-only earphones they can carry anywhere.

  • What Hi-FiJun 2023

    Bold, bassy and very comfortable, but less clear and lively than cheaper class leaders.

  • Clean but bloated V-shaped sound; at its India launch price, rivals like Moondrop Blessing 2 do more.

  • TechPPApr 2021

    Clear, detailed audiophile IEM in a tiny, sturdy package; bass slightly lifted (India review).
