Performance
The comfort score is the standout here, landing in the 95th percentile. The silicone ear hooks are soft, flexible, and stay put during intense movement. Sound quality is about average for this category, which is honestly fine for underwater listening where clarity matters more than audiophile detail. But the battery life is a real letdown. Eight hours in Bluetooth mode and twelve in MP3 mode puts it near the bottom of our database. For a device meant to live in a gym bag, that's rough.

vs Competition
The S710 doesn't really compete with the AirPods Pro 3 or Sony WF-C700N. Those are daily drivers with great sound, ANC, and mics. The S710 is a single-purpose tool. The Soundcore P31i is closer in spirit, but even that is more of an all-rounder. If you need something that works on land and in water, the S710's MP3 mode is the differentiator. But for everyday listening, any of those competitors will run circles around it.

Precio
Value & Pricing
At $60 USD, this is a fair price for a dedicated swim headphone with an MP3 player built in. You're not paying for premium sound or call quality. You're paying for waterproofing and convenience. If you swim laps regularly and just want podcasts or playlists without your phone nearby, this does the job. If you want one pair of earbuds for everything, keep looking.

Overview
The SANOTO S710 is a niche product that knows exactly what it is: a cheap way to get music in your ears while you swim. The built-in 8GB MP3 player is the real selling point here, because Bluetooth doesn't work underwater. At around $60 USD, you're getting a dedicated swim companion, not an everyday earbud. Just don't expect it to replace your daily drivers.
Common Questions
Q: Can I use Bluetooth while swimming?
No. Bluetooth doesn't travel through water. You need to load music onto the 8GB internal storage and switch to MP3 mode before you get in the pool.
Q: How long does the battery actually last?
About 8 hours in Bluetooth mode and up to 12 hours in MP3 mode. That's on the low end for earbuds, so charge it before every swim session.
Q: Will these stay in my ears during flip turns?
Yes. The silicone ear hooks are flexible and grip well. Most swimmers report they stay put even during intense laps.
Who Should Skip This
If you're looking for an everyday earbud with good call quality and all-day battery, this isn't it. Go get the Soundcore P31i or Sony WF-C700N instead. The S710 is for swimmers who need a cheap, waterproof MP3 player that happens to be shaped like earbuds.
Verdict
Buy the SANOTO S710 if you swim regularly and want a cheap, comfortable way to listen to music without your phone. The IPX8 rating and built-in MP3 player are the whole story. Skip it if you need good battery life, call quality, or anything resembling premium sound. This is a pool toy, and that's okay.
