What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives inconsistent protection details: the item highlight says IP55, while feature text says IP54. It also describes battery charging time as 30 hours in one field and 30 hours of total playback in feature text. Treat the protection rating and exact battery meaning as unconfirmed, and check the selected listing before buying.

Customer feedback praises sound quality, particularly the wide sound stage. Battery life, comfort, fit and reliability receive mixed feedback, including a report of a right earbud stopping work. For buyers considering the claimed 30-hour total playback, these mixed battery impressions make real-world endurance worth weighing, while fit and comfort matter for in-ear use. The aggregate ratings are more positive than negative overall, but do not resolve those individual concerns.
Positive themes
- Customers praise sound quality and mention a wide sound stage.
Mixed feedback
- Battery life, comfort, fit and reliability receive mixed feedback.
- One customer report mentions the right earbud stopping working.
Frequently asked questions
Do the NeoBuds Planar support wired listening?
The listing says there is no headphone jack and describes wireless Bluetooth connectivity.
What codecs are listed?
The feature text names LDAC, LHDC, aptX, aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless and aptX HD, as well as Snapdragon Sound. Actual codec use depends on device compatibility.
How long does the battery last?
The listing claims 30 hours of total playback and says a 10-minute fast charge provides two hours of playback. It does not clearly give an earbud-only runtime, and one battery field labels 30 hours as charge time.
Are these earbuds waterproof?
The protection details conflict: one listing highlight gives IP55, while feature text gives IP54. The exact rating is therefore unconfirmed in the supplied details.
