Fantastic Affordable Entry To Wireless Earbuds
BUILD QUALITY: It comes in a medium to large sized quality plastic case which is used to store the earphones along with charge them. It has a magnetic clasp to keep the lid closed which feels solid to open and close. The earbuds themselves are held it place with magnets which I did not expect at this price point. This makes it very easy to place them in the case and remove them. On the front of the case it shows a battery indicator, so you know how much charge you have left (see pictures). The earbuds hold a 4-hour charge with another 10-hours included in the case for a total of 14-hours. The case itself along with the earbuds charge slower than their more expensive counterparts. The earbuds themselves are medium to large in size. They are surrounded in glossy black plastic except for the outer part which is a matte black. There is a small button on each which is very stiff but solid. It does not shake. A small LED is located beside it which constantly blinks red when they aren’t paired, white/red when trying to pair, or white when paired. I find this to be a negative as it can be distracting for those around you or if you are in a dark room. I would prefer that it blink when I first turn them on but once they are connected the lights turn off which the more expensive models do. They are relatively comfortable. But it takes some playing around with the ear tips to make them fit right. The comfort themselves is about average. Which at this price point is to be expected. It does come with three different rubber ear tips and two memory foam ear tips. I went for the foam ear tips and the seal they made in my ear are incredible. To the point where the noise isolation they provide are better than any of my other earbuds, even those that include active noise isolation. EASE OF USE: As for the Bluetooth connection. It’s solid. The earbuds are easy to pair. Just turn on pairing mode, open Bluetooth in your phone and connect. Once you’ve connected they will reconnect quickly due to Bluetooth 5.0. I did have some drop outs, but it reconnected quickly and happened seldom. The left earbud is the master unit. Which means that it holds the Bluetooth connection to the device (cell phone, etc.). Then the right earbuds connect itself to the left earbud. You can use the left earbud independently without the right. You CANNOT use the right bud independently without the left from my testing. When you take out the left earbud it will say “connected.” If you then take out the right earbud it will make a jingle sound as will the left verifying they are connected to each other. Earlier on in truly wireless earbuds (especially those priced at this range) this is where they would fail most often is not connecting with each other. However, these connect with each other 10/10 times without any problems. Which is truly remarkable for this price point. The ease of use and them “just working” was refreshing. Gosh I love technology. Some other random things I haven’t mentioned yet. The earbuds also have some onboard controls. Due to the button being so firm and hard to depress I found the controls to work only some of the time. Likely due to user error on my part but I haven’t had problems with any other earbuds in that regard. They fit securely in the ear and won’t fall out when running or working out. They come with IPX4 rating which means they can easily handle sweat, rain, or accidental spills. SOUND QUALITY: Sound quality for these is excellent especially, for this price point as long as you can get a solid seal. Without a solid seal no earbuds will sound good. As I said earlier I had a tremendous seal on these which made them sound great. Yes, great. I was blown away at how good these sounded for the price point. They were balanced, with good bass (not overbearing, but not anemic either. Once again very dependent on the seal you have), crisp, with good detail, with a more forward and fun natural sound. Depth and imaging was meh. Soundstage was small. I didn’t hear any bloat, brightness, muddiness, congestion, or harshness. THIS OR MORE EXPENSIVE MODELS? What is the difference between these and more expensive models you might ask? None of the things listed below I would expect these to have at this price point. As the ones which do are usually at least $100 - $200 more expensive. The value for these for what you get is tremendous. - These do not come with a passthrough/ambient mode. Which uses microphones to allow you to hear what is going on around you with the earbuds in place. I don’t expect something priced in this range to have it. But this made me completely unaware of the sound around me which I don’t like as it could leave me open to threats when I am out and about. As I couldn’t hear anything with them in my ears. - No active noise isolation. Just excellent passive noise isolation (for me at least). - No auto pause when you take out an earbud. - No quick charge. - Cannot use just the left OR just the right. But instead just the left. Which honestly for this price point is impressive. - Doesn’t come with an app where you can control EQ settings or adjust what buttons do. CONCLUSION: I have almost no negatives for these. The ones I do have are limited and easily overlooked for the price. If you are looking at earbuds at all and are not wanting to break the bank these should be among the choices. As the bang for your buck is fantastic. They just work and come in a very good case. You’ll be hard pressed to find better for cheaper or around the same price. I have a feeling these will be hard to find in stock.

Great true wireless on a budget
I overall found these to be quality headphones. The paired right out of the box and had sufficient battery to go as soon as they were unboxed which was nice. The storage box has plenty of charge -- these will last for most walks or commutes. The memory foam within the earbuds is what really makes these nice. It molds the earbud into your ear and holds it securely. I don't like to run with earbuds on (cuz, SAFETY!) but I don't think these would bounce around in your ears the way others have on me. Overall the sound quality was nice. I have a nice pair of over the hear noise cancelling headphones I use (or used to use, thanks COVID-19) on long flights and I wouldn't trade those for these -- but for something small, unobtrusive, packable that delivers high quality sound while on the tread mill etc. theyre tough to beat, especially at this price point. I do have a couple complaint worth noting: The bluetooth connectivity got a little wonky if you try to manually turn them off and on instead of just using the storage box. I also did find it hard to use the controls on the device, they didn't seem to respond the way the instructions said they should -- I really couldn't get anything but single tap to work, double tap or long tap almost never worked. You also have to stand still to effectively use the buttons anyway, at which point it was easier to fish my phone out and just control from there. Neither of these are deal breakers as they don't impact day to day usage -- but worth noting.

Comfortable earbuds
These are great wireless earbuds with good sound quality, easy to use features/controls and are very comfortable. They work well with my phone (Galaxy S9) for listening to music or taking a phone call. The memory foam tips are very comfortable and work a lot like earplugs. They really block out most external sounds so you can hear whatever you're listening to without distractions. A drawback to this would be if you're out walking or something where you sometimes need to hear things around you. The stated battery life is 4 hours, per the manufacturer's website, and can be recharged by the case for additional listening time, total time, per the manufacturer is 14 hours. They seem to last a long time, but I did not fully test until they were completely drained. Sound quality is excellent with good bass and clear highs. Call quality was also good. I could hear callers very well and they had no trouble hearing me. Out of the box they aren't charged, so you have to first plug in the case and let it charge, then put the earbuds inside the case to charge them. A little inconvenient, but not really unexpected. Once charged, remove them from the case and they power on, and if not paired, will go into pairing mode. Pretty standard to pair to any device. I actually had to research on the manufacturer's site how to pair to a second device as this information was not included or at least not obvious to me in the packaged instructions. My second device was my laptop, as I wanted to try them in a online meeting. The sound was fine, but for some reason the microphone would not work with my PC. I also watched a movie on my computer and the sound quality/immersive experience with headphones was excellent. If you don't like the memory foam tips, they also come with 3 sizes of the standard silicone tips. I didn't try those. The foam tips were very comfortable and it also comes with a replacement set for those. Controlling music and volume was pretty easy. Given the size, you don't get a lot of buttons, so the right earbud controls play/pause, volume up, and skip forward while the left controls play/pause, volume down, and skip backward. Overall, excellent wireless earbuds and a good value for the money.

Succeeds at their design intent.
The search for perfection in a product is a game that's rarely won. There are too many variables, particularly when you're talking about audio equipment. I own 5, maybe more (not sure where they all are!) sets of headphones. All in that search for perfection of sound and comfort. The JVC HA A10T clearly states the design intent is to "fit comfortably in your ears". They nailed it. They come with several different sizes and shapes of memory foam tips to match your ear shape and size. They are so comfortable that I wear them for hours (and the battery lasts multiple walking sessions of 5-11 miles or 3+ hours). I've used them running and the tight, comfortable fit keeps perspiration out of my ears, so check, good for sports. The general sound is good. When using them for phone calls I've never had a complaint either. My only gripe is when I turn up the music cymbals are really disappointing. Enough that I usually turn the volume back down. So on the perfection scale? Meet design intent for comfort: Perfect Sound: not perfect Price/Value: near perfect.

Great sound, fit, price...try them out!
The JVC HA-A10T truly wireless ear buds seem like an absolute steal for the price that they are selling them for. Don’t get me wrong, they are not feature rich and don’t offer touch controls or anything beyond a single button that on each ear bud that either pauses/resumes with a short press or FF (right) RW (left) with a long press. Other than that, you can’t control the volume from them and there is no voice assistant either. However, not everyone requires all those extra features, or they don’t want to spend a lot to get them. These are a great balance of looks, fitment, features, and sound quality. Sound quality is really good on these, and I was surprised. When I first put them on I was not impressed, so you might have to spend some time trying out the many different memory foam or gel pieces that you are presented with. Once I found the right pair, they fit snug and sounded great. Bass was deep and the trebles where high. They do fit deep in your ear canal and after a while I did find them to be less and less comfortable, so I might have to play around with the different ear gels some more. Battery life is rated at 4 hours and the charging case holds another 10 from what JVC claims. I have had similar real-world results with those numbers. The case top is secured with a magnetic clam shell top and the earpieces also held in place with magnets. It is a satisfying feeling and they do feel secure in there. Phone call quality was lacking on these, but not horrible. Pairing the devices was a breeze and the connection between them and my Galaxy Note 10+ does have an occasional choppiness that I haven’t experienced with my other headsets, however, that initial choppiness goes away after a few seconds and does not seem to come back. Over-all, for the money, you cannot go wrong with these and they might be the perfect ear buds for someone to get to do a trial run to see if they are prone to loosing something this small.
