Here is the breakdown:
Pros:
Sound quality - 9.5/10
These sound GREAT and BETTER THAN ITS PRICE, and way better than the Apple EarPods or Samsung’s equivalent that is bundled in with your phone.
The mids and highs are clear and not muddy at all like other cheap earbuds, and the high frequencies are not ear-piercing and actually enjoyable.
You can REALLY FEEL THE BASS. Like I’m not kidding, these buds give a nice PUNCH of bass to music, and it’s not too heavy that its overbearing, but just right enough to give an extra dimension that EarPods lack. In fact, these have more bass than my Sennheiser ANC 4.50 headphones that costs at least triple of Lasuney’s price, so it’s pretty shocking on how good these sound.
It also has no noticeable distortion at higher volume, and I usually have it at around 60 percent volume, so this is definitely loud enough.
Listening to music on this is very enjoyable, especially having voices articulate and clear, and a distinct separation of instruments within the sound (not muddy at all). Also, the soundstage is pretty wide and you can really feel it when you listen to some 8D music.
Sure, these buds are no Bose’s high-end earbuds, but the fact that they come SO SO CLOSE to it is astonishing, especially for a fraction of its price. Honestly, they’re very comparable to Apple AirPods 1/2, and have much better bass. I’m actually really satisfied with the way these sound, and based on purely their sound, I’d price it at least $50.
In terms of watching videos on Netflix or YouTube, I didn’t notice any audio lag with the video. The audio seems to be in sync with the mouths of people talking, so these are great for content consuming.
For the average consumer, these would suffice you more than enough for listening to everyday music and watching videos, and you’ll even be surprised of the BASS.
Earbuds Design - 10/10:
The earbuds have a very minimalistic design with a matte black body and an oval glossy face that houses the microphone, LED, and capacitive buttons.
3 words: These FIT GREAT! Like I’m not joking, they fit really well in my ears and have interchangeable eartip sizes so you can find your fit. I’ve had troubles getting the right fit with bluetooth earbuds - AirPods would sometime slip a little, and the Anker Liberty Air always fall out, but even with shaking my head really hard and smiling, they don’t come out.
For me, they are COMFORTABLE and doesn’t make my ear sweat or get tiered. In terms of weight, I barely notice it as it’s nice and light.
Remember, these earbuds have passive noise isolation, and it does a remarkable job. Wearing this in the dining halls with music on, I don’t get disturbed by the people around me as I feel immersed in the music. You can hear faintly outside of people talking, and it’s no ANC, but honestly I like this better because you don’t get that vacuum airplane feeling that ANC earbuds and headphones give, like the Apple AirPods Pro. The isolation on these are really good to the point where you can hear breathing and heartbeat when everything else is quite.
Battery Life: 10/10
No complaints here. It’ll last you enough for a movie or two, and just pop them into the charging case and boom, extra hours. I’ve been using this for one week, and with some everyday use for about an hour or two, they’re still going strong and I’ll probably need to charge these buds once every week or so based on my usage. Your mileage may vary, but based on the company’s claims, I think it’s about that much battery life.
Convenience: 10/10
Bluetooth earbuds beats cables easily. Best thing about these is how convenient they are. Just pick these up from the pocket and open the case and they connect straight to your phone instantly. No lag, no nonsense, no plug in, just pure instant connection.
Packaging: 10/10
The packaging is very nice and solid. The box came in great condition and felt as premium as Apple boxes (surprisingly good box), and everything came wrapped well. There is a warranty card, manual, additional eartips, a micro-usb cable, and the earbuds themselves. Overall, great unboxing experience. Makes you excited!
Cons:
Microphone: 9/10
The microphone on these two earbuds are surprisingly very clear and can pick up my voice well, especially in quite places. During calls, the person on the other line said that it sounds normal as though I’m using my phone’s regular mic. However, if you’re in pretty loud crowded environment, the outside noise reduces its ability to pick up your voice. Yet, even in an everyday Starbucks, the person on the other line said they can still hear me. The voice quality of the call though is clear and not robotic like cheap Bluetooth headphones, so I’m satisfied.
Controls: 8.5/10
The controls are intuitive and straight forward. Double tap to play/pause, answer calls; triple tap for Siri (Yes, this can use Siri!), and hold to skip tracks. No volume controls here, but that’s not an issue for me cuz I rarely use the touch sensor in general. Yet, you do need to read the manual for this one and play around with the touch sensor to find its sensor area to get used to it. You sometimes need to retry tapping, but honestly this goes to AirPods 1 and Anker Liberty Air too.
Case: 8.7/10
The case is small and compact and fits an my pocket easily. It’s made out of a non-rubberized smooth matte finish plastic that gives no fingerprints at all. However, because of its smoothness, it sometimes slip from my fingers. Also, the top lid is sturdy but isn’t as confident as the hinge of AirPods, but for 30ish bucks, they’re fine for everyday use.
On the other hand, the magnets in the case is SO SATISFYING. I can’t open the case one handed, but when you drop in the earbuds into the case, it just CLICKS so NICELY, and the SNAP when you close the case is satisfying. They charge using micro-usb and have nice light indicators telling its battery percentage.
Other things to note:
You can pair each earbud individually to different devices too, but I haven’t tried that.
There is no restriction in which earbuds you use. Whether its only the left or right or both, they connect and work solo or together.
They connect REALLY FAST, like the instant you open the case and BOOM, connected. There is also a subtle female British voice that says connected once it connects to your device.
If you used different devices with these earbuds and wanted to change the device, you have to use it like any other Bluetooth headphones and unpair them from what you’re using currently and then tap their name on Bluetooth on the other device to pair.
I’m not sure how water resistant these are, but they handled the rain so no problems here.
Overall, I give it a 9.5/10 for everything and 10/10 for value. These are minimalistic, well designed, great sounding and powerful BASS (like really good and clear bass) earbuds. The most important part about Bluetooth is convenience, and these are very convenient. Would be a great present! Highly recommend and an easy buy for anyone looking for earbuds under 50 that sounds great and works well.
