Affordable, true wireless stereo earbuds. Let's check these out
0:11
Dave Taylor here, and I'm checking out these. These, let me open it up so you can see what's
0:15
inside, are the Edifier X3 Lite true wireless stereo in-ear headphones. I know, they call
0:22
them headphones, I call them earbuds, you can call them whatever you want, but they're actually
0:27
pretty slick, and they're incredibly affordable. They feature 6mm drivers with super bass
0:34
and you can see they're small and easy and comfortable. They have A2DP, AVRCP, and HFP
0:42
so they don't have aptX and they don't have AAC, but you're not going to find that you notice that
0:47
for most applications. So, what this means is that your Android, your iPhone, your computer
0:55
Bluetooth 5.3, the very latest version of Bluetooth, it's going to work great, it's going to sound
1:00
really good. You can even go into what they call gaming mode, and you get 60 millisecond low
1:06
latency, which is pretty darn good for games, and that'll help you have that, avoid that problem of
1:13
you hear a sound just after something has happened, and it's not good in games. So, most of this is
1:20
powered by the Edifier Connect app, and I'll show you that in just a second. Let me just tell you
1:25
battery life, six hours on the earbuds, and then three more charges gives you a full 24 hours on
1:31
this unit, and they fit. It's incredibly light, it feels like it's almost an empty shell, and the
1:39
microphone has built-in microphones with ENC, which is environmental noise cancelling. So, I'm going
1:44
to give you a demo of that too. It includes three sizes of ear tips, it also includes a charging
1:50
cable, and on the back there's USB-C. Thank you Edifier for not using micro USB, USB-C way better
1:58
and USB-C charging, super easy to work with, tiny light on the front that shows you when it's
2:03
charged. And with all that, let me put these in my ear, and I've already paired them with my iPhone
2:09
15 Pro. So, let's get that all going, and let me start a recording so you can see what I'm doing
2:19
because that's always fun. And let's see, we'll go to Bluetooth and make sure they're connected
2:26
and it looks like they already are, which is great. So, now we can go back to the app and launch it
2:32
and it will see the earbuds in just a second or two. There we go, and you can see they're both
2:38
fully charged, and if I swipe to the side, I get four different EQ modes from which to choose
2:45
which are Classic, Pop, Classical, and Rock, and I'll say they actually make a pretty big difference
2:51
It's a little slow on the switch, but honestly, once you pick on the EQ that you like, you're never
2:58
going to switch again. And then you can also get to this Game Mode that I talked about, which lowers
3:03
your latency, which is the delay, and I'll say even without Game Mode on, if you watch a video or
3:09
something, it's all going to seem very much in sync. Then if you go to Settings, then there's a lot of
3:14
interesting things. So, there's also a Find My feature, just like with the Apple AirPods and such
3:21
so you can use that to show where your earbuds are or where they've last reported a location
3:27
on a map. I'm not going to show you because I don't want to show you my studio home address
3:32
Prompt Volume, I think the Control Settings might be the most fun, as you can set anything. There's a
3:38
lot of different options on how they should behave based on the taps and such that you do
3:44
so that's really nice. Now, let's do a little quick voice demo
3:54
Now, what you're hearing is my voice is picked up by the Edifier X3 Lite True Wireless Stereo
4:01
in-ear headphones, and as you can hear, it's pretty clean, actually, and it does that ENC
4:06
so ostensibly, if I was in a noisy environment, it would be able to reduce some of that background
4:11
noise, but these are certainly good enough to be on a phone call with someone while you're doing
4:17
whatever it is you want to do. And I should mention, these are also IP55, so they're not
4:23
fully waterproof, but they're definitely water and dust resistant, which is plenty enough for
4:29
you to wear these while you're at the gym, and if you get sweaty or something, totally no problem
4:34
Now, let me stop the recording, and let me stop the other recording, and let me tell you that
4:43
the audio quality when I play back music is actually surprisingly excellent, particularly
4:49
for the price point. These are really, really nice little, tiny, inexpensive earbuds. I was listening
4:55
to some early Keith Jarrett jazz piano and jazz trio and stuff, and there's a nice crispness to
5:01
it. It's not a huge sound stage, but it's a very listenable music, and of course, you can tweak the
5:08
EQ settings in their app, so that makes that easy, but once you get these in, and once you start
5:14
listening, they're very pleasant, very nice, they're comfortable, and you can just pop them out and put
5:20
them in the case, and they automatically detect that they're in the case. So, once I do this, and I
5:27
will note that it is one of these cases that has a cross design, so I'm going to pick the one on the
5:34
right to put in my left ear, and the one on the left to put in my right ear. Obviously, no big deal after
5:40
the first time, and you can see in this close-up that they are comfortable, and they sit in your
5:45
ear, and they stay in your ear, so that's really nice. I was listening to music while I was doing
5:50
some chores around the house, and working on cleaning up some stuff in my studio, and they
5:55
just stayed in, and I just really focused on the music, and a little bit on what I was trying to
6:01
accomplish, but lots to like here, and particularly, like I said, they are way less expensive than you
6:07
think they are. So, that's pretty much everything I got for you. Here's a couple of close-ups, so you
6:13
can see what the case looks like, and what the earbuds look like, and we should talk about the
6:19
price. So, these come in gray, this color, or white, and they are $29.99 at Amazon.com. That's right, for
6:29
$29.99, you can get these really solid little budget earbuds. Now, they're not going to have the same
6:36
feel, or the same look as like $200 or $300 units. They are definitely using more budget plastics and
6:44
stuff, but for that price point, they've really focused on the sound, and the sound will surprise
6:50
you. They really sound quite nice. So, that's all I got. Go ahead and click on that subscribe if you'd

7:01
was one of value, and that's all I got. I'll hope to catch you in my next video
