Alpha Digital V8
A 1.47-inch full-color LCD touch screen with onboard MP3 playback makes these earbuds a standalone music player, backed by 13mm drivers, Bluetooth 5.3, and active noise cancellation. The case charges in 1.5 hours for 32 total hours of battery, and each earbud works independently with a sharing mode for dual mono listening. Best for users wanting a phone-free portable audio player with a screen, though the low fitness score limits their use during intense workouts.

The 30-Second Version
A gimmicky case screen and shockingly good ANC make this a fun toy, but the comfort is rough. Buy it for the screen, not the sound.

Performance
The ANC is the surprise here. It lands in the 86th percentile, which is genuinely impressive for something this cheap. The 13mm drivers push out sound that's solidly middle of the pack, nothing that'll make you sell your nicer buds, but fine for podcasts and gym playlists. The mic is also well above average, so calls won't make you sound like you're underwater. Battery life is decent at 6 hours per bud and 32 total with the case, and the 1.5-hour fast charge is a nice touch.

vs Competition
Stacked against the Nothing Buds 2 or Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro, the V8 gets smoked on sound and comfort. Those are real earbuds for people who care about music. But the Soundcore P31i and SoundPEATS H3 are closer in spirit, budget buds with a trick or two. The V8's screen is unique, but the P31i likely fits better and the H3 probably sounds better. If you want the screen, get the V8. If you want earbuds, look elsewhere.

Ціна
Value & Pricing
At USD 35 to USD 39, this is a fun impulse buy. The price spread across vendors is tiny, but if you're hunting, the lower end of that range is the better deal. You're paying for the screen gimmick and surprisingly good ANC, not for audiophile sound. For the money, it's hard to be mad at it.

Overview
The Alpha Digital V8 is a weird one. It's a budget true wireless earbud that stuffs a full-color 1.47-inch LCD touchscreen into the charging case, which is either a neat party trick or a gimmick you'll forget about in a week. The one thing to know: this is a case-first product. The screen is the star, and the earbuds themselves are serviceable but not special.
Common Questions
Q: Can I use the case screen to control music without my phone?
Yes, the 1.47-inch LCD touchscreen lets you play, pause, skip tracks, adjust volume, and even switch wallpapers. It's basically a tiny MP3 player remote built into the case.
Q: Are these good for working out?
They're IPX4 sweat-resistant and lightweight at 4.6g per bud, but the comfort score is low. If they don't stay put in your ears, no amount of sweat resistance helps. Try them before committing to gym use.
Q: How long does the battery actually last?
About 6 hours on the buds alone and 32 hours total with the case. The case charges fully in 1.5 hours via USB-C, and it also supports Qi wireless charging.
Who Should Skip This
If you're looking for all-day comfort or serious sound quality, this isn't it. Go get the Soundcore P31i for a better fit or the Sony WF-C700N for better sound. The V8 is for people who want a tiny screen on their earbud case and don't mind mediocre ergonomics.
Verdict
The Alpha Digital V8 is a novelty that happens to have decent ANC. If you love gadgets and want a conversation starter on your desk, grab one. If you actually care about how earbuds feel in your ears for more than an hour, this isn't your pick.
