Sound Performance
The sound performance of the SoundPeats feels classy and well balanced with great bass output. These earbuds also feature CVC 6.0 noise cancellation technology which cancels out unwanted sounds and background noise to provide an enjoyable listening experience. The result is that the sound feels more pronounced with crystal clear treble, punchy bass and crisp highs. Listening to electronic dance music on these earbuds was pure joy – the sound hits pretty hard and does not distort at high volumes. The vocal sound from audiobooks also sounded crisp and clear. Although the sound is not the best we have ever heard, they certainly do meet high expectations and are highly for money at this price range. The call quality on these earbuds was also very good – we were able to hear the other person on the line clearly as if we were speaking through a landline. The Bluetooth streaming is also stable and we did not experience any dips in sound performance. If you are looking for a set of high quality earbuds for causal, the SoundPeats easily fits that description.
Design
The controls on the SoundPeats are easy and straightforward to use – there are 3 buttons on the right earbud which allow you to adjust the volume settings and turn the earbuds on or off. The Bluetooth range is easily a good 30 feet and the SoundPeats will automatically connect to your mobile device the second time you switch it on. Furthermore, these Bluetooth headphones are made of a lightweight material with nano coating to withstand sweat and water, making them ideal companions to take on the go or while travelling. The battery life lasts a good 6 hours of continuous playtime with its 95mAh battery and it takes approximately 1 to 2 hours to fully charge these earbuds.
Bluetooth Connectivity
The Bluetooth connection on the SoundPeats was stable and consistent; these earbuds have high-fidelity stereo sound quality with aptx codec, which improves the overall sound quality. These earbuds are compatible with almost all smartphones and will connect to iPhone and Android devices. We particularly liked the fact that the SoundPeats came with extra ear tips and ear hooks which you can try out to get the perfect fit in the ear – this is essential to reduce sound leakage and to get the optimal sound performance. The clip attached to the wire of the earbuds is also useful if you need to pin it to your shirt for more support and prevent the wires from getting in your way. You can also switch and control music and calls easily via the buttons on the right earbud, making them truly hands free.
