Review
In the package is the case, a short micro-USB cable and two earphones.
When you place the earphones in the case they will automatically charge, to make sure they are always fully charged and ready to use.
The case is made of good quality plastic and has a lid for extra protection. Some earphones come with a open charging case, so having a lid here is nice. It makes sure that dust etc stays out of the case, but also makes sure the earphones don’t fall out. It’s also slightly transparent, so the charging lights on the earphones are visible without opening the lid.
The case gives an extra battery capacity of 800mAh, which will give a total of up to 32 hours of use, which is 8 full charges of the earphones.
The earphones have a standby time of 120 hours, and max 4 hours of music. I usually get a bit more than 3 hours of loud music in daily use. Charging them from 0 to 100% takes about two hours.
Pairing with a phone, table or laptop is very easy.
- Just turn on bluetooth on the device.
- Take the earphones out of the case.
- Select the right side earphone in the list of available devices (the left side will automatically connect to the right side so no need to do anything with it).
After the pairing is done, there’s no need to do this again. The earphones will automatically connect every time you take the earphones out of the case.
Using only one earphone for calls is also possible. Take out only the right one and leave the left in the case.
The re-connecting with my phone is also fast enough to answers calls while both earphones are in the case. When I get a call, I’ll just pull out the right one and by the time it’s in my ear the connection is ready and the call has automatically been answered. No need to accept the call from the phone.
The sound quality is surprisingly good for the price, and they even have good bass.
The high to low tones are nicely spread and the sound is clear and crisp.
At loud volumes the sound is still clear and the bass doesn’t kill of the other tones. Overall the sound quality is very good for the price.
They are comfortable to use and sit nicely in the ears. The rubber buds also blocks out most of the surrounding sound, so wearing them in noisy places is no problem. I tested in a airplane, and it worked very good while watching movies and listening to music.
On each earphone there’s a led indicator, that is mostly only used to show you power and connection status. After connecting to a device the led switches off. The flat side that points out from the ear, is also a physical button. There’s one on each earphone, and they’re used to answer/reject calls, control music, or activate Google Assistant or Siri. When it comes to music you can play, pause, skip to the next song, skip to the beginning of a song or skip to the previous song.
Supported BT profiles are HFP/HSP/A2DP/AVRCP
Conclusion
These earphones are very good for the price, and the extra battery provided by the case is very nice to have! Sound quality is good and their comfortable to use. The case also has a lid for extra protection against dust etc.
