72 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews

These noise-canceling earbuds receive mostly positive feedback for sound quality, comfort, and ANC performance, with several users noting they are a great value compared to bigger brands. However, battery life is a significant point of contention, with some reporting only 3-6 hours of use, far below advertised claims. A few users also mention ear pressure from ANC and discomfort when side-sleeping. Overall, the product is well-regarded for its features and build, but battery inconsistency holds it back.

Pros
  • Great sound quality
  • Comfortable fit with foam tips
  • Effective noise cancellation
  • Good value for money
  • Compact charging case
Cons
  • Inconsistent battery life (3-6 hours)
  • Ear pressure from ANC
  • Uncomfortable for side sleeping
  • No mute/unmute or ANC voice announcements
  • Bulky bud shape for some
