55 out of 100 low confidence 7 reviews

These wired USB-C earbuds receive mixed feedback. While many users appreciate the comfortable fit, good sound quality for the price, and compatibility with various devices, a significant number report durability issues such as the wire breaking or one earbud failing within days. The cable noise (microphonics) is also a noted drawback for some.

Pros
  • Comfortable fit
  • Good sound quality for price
  • USB-C compatibility
  • Clear sound across frequencies
  • Good bass response
Cons
  • Wire breaks easily
  • One earbud stops working quickly
  • Cable noise (microphonics)
  • Poor durability
  • Inline controls positioned too close to head
