This is a very (very) long review.
For context: my AirPods Pro 2 got damaged and I’m replacing them with these until I can afford a new pair of AirPods Pro 2.
In short, for under PhP1K, they are great. Not excellent, not good, not okay—but great.
Why? Read on to know.
I’m so glad these use USB-C. And while I understand that asking for wireless charging at this price point is too much, it still would have been nice to have.
The overall sound has a “V” sound signature, but has great instrument/vocal/sound separation in music/shows/movies. So unless you’re an audiophile with excellent hearing—you’ll enjoy these earbuds.
The noise cancellation isn’t on par with the AirPods Pro 2 because sudden noises like people chatting or fingers snapping will still cut through—but consistent noise like wind, engines, and electric motors are blocked out.
The transparency mode is okay—almost “meh”. But when compared to the AirPods Pro 2—the transparency mode is bad. The transparency mode sounds like there’s something in your ears but you can still make out sounds and words, whereas the AirPods Pro 2’s transparency mode sound like there’s nothing in your ears.
Also, wind noise reduction doesn’t do much, if anything at all.
Speaking of wind noise reduction, that’s something the can only be toggled via the Soundcore app. And the Soundcore app is great—almost excellent.
Within the app—I can change the earbuds’ controls (tap, double tap, triple tap, and tap and hold), change the EQ and enable 3D surround (which I prefer to be enabled), see the individual battery life of both earbuds, connect to two devices at once, find missing earbuds, change how fast the earbuds power off when they’re disconnected and not being worn, change the prompt tones, do a fit test, update the earbuds’ firmware (which I did upon unboxing), switch from noise cancellation to transparency mode and vice versa, change the noise cancellation level (1-5, indoors/outdoors/transport/, and adaptive noise cancellation—though I set mine to 5 for maximum cancelling), and contacting customer support directly.
There’s also a recently added feature called “Gaming Mode” and it does exactly what it says it should do—which is reduce the latency between what’s being shown versus what’s being heard—albeit, at the cost of reduced sound quality by disabling 3D Surround Sound and the EQ settings.
I also like the blue color of the charging case and the earbuds, even if I wanted black in the first place. Both the stems of the earbuds and the charging case have a mild soft touch plastic feel to them.
The battery life though so far is excellent. I think they could last for 6-10 hours without the charging case. But battery life will degrade over time as all batteries do.
The packaging is great and the box comes with a lot of paperwork, a USB-A-to-C cable, and extra small and large ear tips.
The charging case’s built-in phone stand and magnets are excellent.
A problem I’ve run into is the earbuds’ controls don’t always work, and when they do, they’re very sensitive. As in a lot of surfaces that aren’t my fingers will trigger the controls.
I haven’t drained these enough to know how fast they charge since it’s my first day with them.
Oh, and the delivery was fast, within 1.5 days. No complaints there.

title: Detailed comparison to AirPods Pro 2
detailedReviews 2: content: As I bought this product for sound quality and yes this is my first tws so sound is ok no issues
Sound :- 4/5, bass is good
Fit :- 3.5/5
Battery life :- 4.8/5
Build :- 4.5/5
Charging :- 4.5/5
Passive noice cancellation :- 3.5/5
Connectivity :- 3.8/5
Don't be amused by the app setting it's not beneficial for everyone it's just basic feature
I face several issues as his product has mono bud connectivity my be that's the reason I face face sync issues while my device( phone ) is slightly at a distance of 10-15 feet also notice sound fluctuations tooat the same time maybe it's because of distance but it's not that far and no obstructions in between.
No dual pairing support
One more even if I put my hand on one bud then also faced connectivity issue
But mostly it's because of distance and obstruction
I choose these over realme t200 lite because they are slightly higher priced and ya the trust comes with realme is different but I'm not disappointed with these one you can go for them

detailedReviews 3: content: Bass is overpowering by default—needs FLAT EQ and wide-bore eartips for balanced sound. Bluetooth range is decent (10–15 ft). Battery life is solid. No dual-device pairing. Indoor calls are clear. Fit is comfortable and looks sleek. Great value for the price.

detailedReviews 4: content: Product Quality:seems good quality
Performance:not that good
Best Feature:cheap
Updated review: got the sound a lot better using Wavelet app instead of Soundcore app. Wavelet has better presets and also manual equaliser adjustment. Their bright setting finally gets the bass under control.
I read these were bass heavy before I ordered, but that you could adjust it in the soundcore app equaliser. Well after adjusting it's still bad.
Ok for basic use, but if you listen to music, these are very lacking In quality. Even in reduced base or increased treble setting, ( or any other setting) they are soo bass heavy they have very little mid range mid range or tone or clarity and higher volumes are pretty distorted.
My free wired headphones from another phone are way better than these at music and clarity of sound. I thought these would be better, but they are definitely not.
Will probably sell these on and buy wired usb headphones.
Cheap at 443, But would not have liked to pay more.
Plus point, even without NC they do block out a lot of sound when in the ear.
Didn,t bother checking the microphone as I already read it's not that good and was not what I needed anyway.

detailedReviews 5: content: Quality:really good
Performance:amazing
came with spare buds in different lobe sizes and a type c usb. the material is of plastic, but it doesnt feel flimsy or low quality. the magnet holding the buds is really strong. the green colour is a lovely dark green shade, exactly as pictured.
the buds come with an installable app. the anc modes are many and works amazingly. cancels out all outside noises when the anc mode is on. the equaliser is aldo customable according to preference. the fit test is useful, and i find the ability to remove dual connections useful too. the functionality of these earbuds are great.
music quality is amazing to me. not too much bass and it doesnt drown out anything. greatly balanced. but again, equaliser is highly customisable so i think it is suited for many people.
in terms of wearability, the provided different sizes of buds definitely helps. i find that it doesnt get uncomfy, and doesnt slip out from the ear easily.
cons:
- pretty hard to open w one hand. but i guess that proves it to be a good thing if it drops, especially with how strong the magnets holding the buds are.
- cant change the name of the buds 💔 hopefully next software update ...
anyways.. this is a 9.5/10 budget earbud tbh .. i recommend it!

Quality:good
Sound-wise, it’s good,
the audio isn’t too heavy or too sharp, just nicely balanced. However, when it comes to comfort, it really falls short. My ears start to itch even after wearing it for less than an hour. I also own the SoundPEATS Air3 Deluxe, and honestly, it’s way more comfortable to wear. Comfort is super important to me since I have sensitive ears, and unfortunately, the R50i NC just doesn’t deliver in that aspect.
Another thing I noticed is that it takes about 3–4 seconds to connect automatically to my devices, which is kind of annoying. My Soundcore H30i, for example, connects instantly, but the R50i NC always lags behind. The mic quality is just decent, not terrible, but not that clear either.
Overall, decent sound but disappointing comfort and connectivity.

(Video is not related to the product review)
The only down side i can say abt is that the case doesnt show its battery percentage so, its a hit or miss, the earbuds’ percentage tho can be viewed on the app (or if you’re using ios, it shows on the battery widget).
Battery lasts 5hrs with nonstop music with ANC activated. It doesnt hurt the ears, and the fit is perfect.
The bass is heavy if you set the eq in bass booster, but its all clear and balanced without having to set modes on the equalizer.
It can pair with 2 devices at once, and the bluetooth pairs smoothly. Hope it lasts! Its worth the price I must say.

detailedReviews 9: content: Good headphones for the price, battery life is as advised, quality is great but the box keeps falling down as its slippery. Sound is flat, with minimal bass but clear would be fine for casual music and calls. would suggest this over other brands flooding the market.

detailedReviews 10: content: For the price i paid these are amazing little earbuds. No noise cancelling but it isolates some noise, sat on a bus you can't hear as much going on. Battery seems to last well too, i used mostly when going on the bus for a day, and never worried about battery life, something i usually do with my galaxy buds pro. For the price these are impressive, i picked up as a cheap spare however they are normally taken when travelling and i dont want to lose my more expensive samsung buds pro. Very good value, case is quite large however, and the earbuds seem to pull on the ear after a while, feels like they could fall out.
