Light, but large buds misfit some ears

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

  • Over 7 h with ANC in their run-down
  • Light and comfortable for a couple of hours
  • Buttons work well without pushing the bud into the ear
  • Good app with EQ and DSEE
  • Balanced sound with decent mids; rare custom EQ profiles at this price
  • ANC effective for its size and price
  • Clear, natural call voice, above rivals at the price

Cons

  • ANC measured hardly better than passive seal
  • Thin bass and subdued treble
  • Fit doesn't suit larger ears
  • Plasticky build and flimsy-feeling lid; SBC/AAC only
  • Battery shorter than competitors
  • Strong wind muffles calls
  • No wear detection or wireless charging
  • SoundGuysNov 2024

    Light and long-lasting, but measured ANC barely beats passive isolation and the build feels cheap; not worth full price. Tested US version.

  • GSMArenaApr 2023

    A strong overall package for the money with good sound, ANC and fit; battery and missing auto-pause hold it back. Tested global version.

  • DigitJul 2023

    Well-rounded sound for Indian listening tastes; ANC holds up, though controls and fit can make or break it. Indian review.

  • Tech AdvisorJul 2023

    Sound great for the money and a good non-Apple alternative; ANC, controls and features are middling. Tested European version.
