HTC True Wireless Earbuds 7, IPX4 Splashproof Bluetooth 5.3 Noise Cancelling in-Ear Headphones with 45ms Ultra-Low Latency, 22H Playtime, Built-in Mic for Gaming, Exercising (Black)

This set of wireless headset from HTC is very inexpensive but performs very well. The headset is very easy to pair, just take them out of the case and remove the yellow sticky tab on the charging contact and they should start looking for device to pair. Make sure to remove the yellow tabs and put back into the case upon first use to make sure the buds have a charge. Once paired, the earbud should start working immediately and will automatically connect once you remove them from the case. The build is very good for a sub $40 headset and sound quality is good. What I like: 1. Sleek and good fit 2. Easy to pair 3. Good sound No notable concerns at time of writing.

Several places in the description say noise cancellation, but to be clear there is no ANC. Overall, these do sound pretty good, but I think there are many other options out there that sound as good or better and definitely have more features than these at full price. I like the low profile, and they fit comfortably in my ears (and I have worn them for hours at a time). I have used these for audiobooks, watching videos and music, and I think they sound pretty decent for all of those things. If you can get them greatly discounted, and just want a good pair of knock around earbuds, these work. At the time of my writing this review they are on sale for $26 and are worth considering at that price point, but at the full retail price I think I would pass and look for something better. I waivered between a 3 and a 4 star, but decided on the 4 because honestly they do sound quite decent and for me they are comfortable to wear.

Doesn’t hold a charge and audio cuts in and out

Pairing was so easy. Just remember to take both pieces out of the case when pairing. Sound is outstanding.

I only just received these, but so far they work great! I like how I can use one or both, and they seem to work really well. I have really tiny ears, and so far they fit pretty good, arent too uncomfortable and havent fallen out or anything with just household activities. I havent worked out in them yet though but am hopeful. Sound quality seems good, and set up was pretty easy if you read the instructions. I will note that there are small protective covers over the portion that connects the buds to the base, and I had to remove those before they would connect, but other than that, pretty simple. Definitely a great alternative for someone who doesnt want to spend more than is necessary on apple airpods or someone who doesnt own an apple device, such as myself.

I’m really impressed with these HTC earphones, especially at the price point. Balanced sound of not a little vocal forward. Present bass when song calls for it, but not overpowering. Sensitive touch points. Pretty comfortable, too. Haven’t had to adjust them too much since putting them in and I’ve been listening for a couple of hours straight. Connection seems strong, no glitches. Walked away from phone for maybe 50 feet before started to go in and out. No ANC, but passive isolation is pretty good. Compact case is a nice touch, too. That said, I don’t like that the case lights don’t light up when you open it to tell you how much power it has left.

They are really nice to use on discord and a really inexpensive option.

Too big for my ears.

These are a great buy. Very clear sound and easy to pair with my phone and TV.

Sound Quality (probably the most important): I do like the bass on these earbuds although the very high treble seems to be a little muddy in my opinion. The vocals which are mids are nice and clear. The are no freq specs in the description or with the package but it has to be around 20Hz on the low-end while the high-end would probably be short of 20kHz (20-20K is the typical range of the human audio spectrum). Overall for sound quality, these earbuds are very nice. Battery life for the earbuds seems to be pretty good and the manual says that the case will recharge the earbuds fully three times. This seems reasonable for the small case size. Although I do prefer a digital display on the case that shows how much power is left in the case, due to the small case size that would not be possible and there are three LEDs on the case to indicate the power level of the case. Overall battery life is very good. The USB charging connector is USB type C, which is the same as my Samsung phone charger. Connectivity: Bluetooth works flawlessly. When I leave my phone on the other side of the gym when working out it always stays connected. Phone usage: I did not use these to talk on the phone, so I can not comment on that aspect. Controls: Functionality is controlled by taps (pause, next, previous, answer/end call) which is typical for earbuds of this type. Admittedly, I only use play/pause because I use them at the gym. Although it has a game/music mode it seems that the game mode just enhances the bass, but it is not readily apparent which mode you are in (no indicator that I found). General Overview: I would not hesitate to buy these as the price point is really nice and the sound quality is really pretty good (especially if you like the hear the low end of the audio spectrum). Certainly, a good value for a nice quality earbud. Update (11/09/2022): Not a major issue, but just different: When the earbuds connect to my phone, there is no message that says they are connect (like with all my other devices). It still connected (and reconnects) flawlessly, but it does not announce this via audio.
