What to know before buying

Battery claims depend on configuration. The listing gives 38 hours overall, but also states up to 5.5 hours of listening with ANC on and up to 22 hours including the case in that mode. A 10-minute USB-C charge is separately claimed to provide up to 10 hours of playback.
The case Super Mic requires keeping the case close and pointed towards the mouth. The listing recommends a 5cm distance in loud environments. Dual Connection limits some Super Mic functions and may delay activation.

Listing details to confirm

The listing details are inconsistent: they give 38 Hours as battery life and case battery life, while manufacturer feature text specifies 22 hours with ANC on. The product title claims IP54, but detailed specifications only say Water Resistant. The title and feature copy claim LDAC Hi-Res while the technical fields do not specify a codec. Confirm the relevant configuration and protection rating before buying.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

Listeners who want in-ear wireless earbuds with adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode and LDAC-compatible audio.
People who make calls or voice notes and are willing to use the charging case as a close-range microphone.
Buyers wanting wireless case charging and app-based EQ customisation.

Less suited to

People who need a firmly established ANC-on total battery figure, as the listing gives different case-inclusive claims.
Anyone seeking a wired headphone connection, since the listed connection is wireless and the jack field says No Jacket (Wireless).
Callers who do not want to hold the charging case close to their mouth to use the Super Mic.

Customer feedback highlights perceived strengths in build quality, sound and design, including a report of noticeable bass with ANC on. Opinions are mixed on noise cancellation, functionality, battery life, fit and value, with reports ranging from acceptable use to charging or comfort concerns. Those differences matter for earbuds advertised with ANC and mode-dependent battery claims, so fit and actual use conditions may shape the experience. The overall rating distribution is mostly positive but includes a notable low-rating share, and ratings alone do not identify why customers were dissatisfied.

Mixed feedback

Frequently asked questions

How long does the battery last?

The listing gives up to 38 hours overall, but specifies up to 5.5 hours of listening with ANC enabled and up to 22 hours including the case in that mode. Treat the longer figure as configuration-dependent.

How does the Super Mic work?

Press the TALK button and keep the charging case close and pointed towards your mouth. The listing recommends 5cm in loud environments. Dual Connection limits some Super Mic features.

Does the case support wireless charging?

Yes. The listing describes built-in wireless charging for the case, as well as a 10-minute USB-C charge claimed to deliver up to 10 hours of playback.

Are the earbuds water-resistant?

The detailed specification says Water Resistant, while the product title claims IP54. The listing does not resolve that difference, so confirm the rating before relying on it.
