Huawei has announced the latest generation of their open-fit TWS earbuds, the Huawei FreeBuds 5. These ditch the Apple AirPod-esque design that the FreeBuds 4 and FreeBuds 3 used in favour of a new curvey design. At first glance, they were reminiscent of the bean-shaped Samsung Galaxy Buds Live that launched a couple of years…
I reviewed the Edifier TWS NB a couple of years ago, and I was very impressed. My main criticism was how ugly they were. Edifier is now back with the TWS NB2 Pro that has had a complete redesign into something much more stylish. They are also cheaper than the original TWS NB but are…
The Sennheiser CX True Wireless launched last year as a successor to the affordable (for Sennheiser) CX 400BT. They offer a similar specification to the outgoing model but with improvements in key areas such as battery life, upgraded Bluetooth and a new bass boost feature. Specification Driver: TrueResponse Transducer Sennheiser 7mm dynamic driver Frequency response…
I recently reviewed the Redmi Smart Band Pro, which was a good but perhaps unremarkable fitness band that is very similar to the Xiaomi Mi Band 6. I was also sent the Redmi Buds 3, a pair of affordable true wireless earbuds with an Airpodesque design. Priced at under £40 these are well into the…
The Soundpeats H1 Premium are a new pair of earbuds that are a minor update to the existing Soundpeats H1, which have been on Amazon for around 6 months. The only difference between these two earbuds seems to be the inclusion of an AI Voice Assistant. This is a relatively short review as I had…
I have reviewed quite a few EarFun earbuds over the past two years, and they have consistently been good for the price you pay. I was impressed with the original Earfun Air Pro, which I reviewed almost a year ago. Now they are back with a second-generation model that claims to offer a superior level…
EKSA are best known for their affordable over the head gaming headsets. In particular, they have a range of 5.8Ghz wireless headsets that offer ultra-low latency performance. They are now trying to take that template and apply it to the popular true wireless earbuds market. The EKSA GT1 Cobra are an affordable pair of gaming…
I have been impressed with all the headphones and earbuds I have reviewed from Cleer so far, they are big on features and performance while being low on price. The Cleer Ally Plus II are still one of my go-to pairs of earphones for both fitness and general walking around. The Cleer Roam NC is…
Honor launched their latest affordable Earbuds 2 Lite earlier this month. With an RRP of £69.99 they were cheap for ANC TWS earbuds to start with, but you can already pick them up for under £50 on Amazon. Most earbuds at this price offer quite a good sound quality nowadays but fail in many other…
The Nothing ear (1) earbuds have probably been the most marketed and hyped earbuds in existence. As much as I like Carl Pei and what he did with OnePlus I have found the whole Nothing campaign cringeworthy and annoying. Weekly press releases for minor details quickly became tiring. It wouldn’t have been bad if it…
Elevoc is a new company entering the TWS earbud market with the brand launching via Indiegogo. Rather than some generic earbuds, Elevoc has developed their earbuds to offer superior noise-cancelling for calls than most competing models. This is then combined with a relatively low price point for the ANC market, and it makes them quite…
Klipsch is one of the oldest and most reputable audio companies in the game. They are best known for their high-quality horn-loaded loudspeakers but in recent years have expanded into increasingly popular markets such as soundbars and earphones. Klipsch jumped onto the TWS bandwagon back in 2019, with the original T5 True Wireless receiving favourable…
