Revainrating 4 out of 5

$35 aren't bad for in-ear headphones

Overall: They're great for the price. If you mainly use voice and calls, you won't miss a thing. If you're trying to hear the full spectrum of a great soundtrack in your game or music, there are likely other options that sound better. (Of course they cost more) Good: I'm skeptical about true wireless headphones because I'm always afraid that they will fall out. I have other wireless bluetooth headphones that have an extra wingtip on the earbud that prevents the earbud from falling out, which I wish. They don't usually fall out and I've worn them when I skate and got over sharper cracks in the road and it's been fine. They wanted to fall out when I bent down to pick something up, but if you don't flip upside down often it should be fine. I love that they include different ear tips and the small ones match mine. There are no complaints about the comfort, I wear them for 8 hours straight and haven't had any issues with discomfort, irritation or anything else. Low Latency/Nintendo Switch: I bought this because I wanted a low latency option when running. Play in handheld mode on Nintendo Switch. The Gulikit Bluetooth adapter does not take these low latency headphones into account. It's a bit disappointing because I specifically got them to see if they really have low latency and they really don't live up to that (but that's also understandable given the price). They have lower latency than my other headphones but still have very low latency even when watching YouTube videos. I'm VERY picky (probably more than the average customer) as I mostly play rhythm games on my Switch and watch videos of people playing drums and other instruments on my phone. Audio: This is a good choice for audio books. Podcasts and phone calls, with lots of mids and highs that are crisp but not the best for music. The bass is not very strong, I would say that in music it sounds thin rather than full. The mic sounds good when I'm on calls, I've had no complaints about picking up ambient noise (although I usually call in quieter places or indoors). Ease of Use: The earbuds connect to each other. immediately after removal from the housing. You can also use a bud if you like. It was very easy and simple to connect to my devices and switch them from switch to phone and back. No need to fiddle with settings on any device. Touch controls are responsive. The only time they weren't as responsive was when I was in the freezer, but I think cold hands might have more to do with it than anything. I was impressed with the range of the headphones, I still got sound from my phone which was upstairs when I went downstairs. Noise. At the same time, since ambient noise is in the mid-low range, you'll lose even more bass range in your music when you're outdoors. Pros + $35 low price + clear mids and highs + touch control sensitive/good + microphone quality seems good (for indoor phone calls) + easy to connect (fast, no issues) + reliable battery life Cons + no bass + not true low latency ( aptx LL) + no wing to keep it more secure in the ear + no ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) Overall the main reason for a 4/5 is the lack of really low latency

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • I can hurt myself
