These aren't your typical earbuds. They
0:02
don't even go in your ears. Meet the
0:03
Sound Pete's Pearl Clip Pro. The
0:05
weirdest and coolest earbuds I've ever
0:07
tested. And trust me, they sound way
0:09
better than you'd expect. I've tested
0:11
dozens of earbuds across all price
0:13
ranges. And these really caught my
0:15
attention. Not just for their design,
0:17
but for how shockingly good they sound.
0:19
Inside this tiny box is something truly
0:22
different. And by the end of this video,
0:24
you'll see why these might be the most
0:25
unique earbuds you can buy right now.
0:28
The box itself looks compact yet
0:30
premium, proudly showing off LDAC and
0:33
high-res audio support, something you
0:36
rarely see at this price point. Now,
0:38
let's jump straight into the good stuff,
0:40
the design. The sound pets Pearl Clip
0:43
Pros are smaller and sleeker than most
0:45
earbuds I've tested. They look far more
0:48
compact than my old Edifier TWWS
0:50
earbuds. The case has a glossy dark blue
0:53
finish that feels premium, although the
0:55
rounded base means it won't stand
0:57
upright. On the front is a small LED
1:00
light and a shiny metallic button that
1:02
doubles as both the pairing and battery
1:04
status button. At first, I thought it
1:06
was just there for decoration. Turns out
1:08
it's functional. Around the back, you
1:10
get a blue accented USBC port for fast
1:13
charging. Opening the case reveals what
1:15
makes these earbuds so unique. Instead
1:18
of sitting inside your ears, they gently
1:20
clip around the outer ear. There's no
1:22
left or right marking, so you can wear
1:24
them however you like. They look
1:26
futuristic, but feel incredibly light
1:28
and natural once clipped on, almost like
1:30
they're floating. The inner side houses
1:31
the speaker grill, while the outer side
1:33
includes charging pads. Each earbud
1:36
packs 12mm dual magnetic drivers with
1:38
just 5.85 g of weight, larger than what
1:42
you usually find in openear designs,
1:44
promising richer and more detailed
1:46
sound. Sound Petats claims a 10-minute
1:48
charge gives 2 hours of play time. I
1:51
tested that claim and they lasted around
1:53
1 hour and 35 minutes, which is still
1:55
impressive for such a quick charge. I've
1:57
also tried them while jogging in the
1:59
park and during workouts at the gym.
2:01
Outdoors, they performed beautifully,
2:03
keeping me aware of my surroundings
2:05
while still delivering clear, balanced
2:07
audio. However, in the gym, where the
2:09
background music was loud, their open
2:11
ear design struggled a bit. Still, for
2:13
outdoor runs and casual use, they're
2:16
absolutely fantastic. The build feels
2:18
soft and skin friendly, made from smooth
2:21
silicone that stays comfortable even
2:23
during long listening sessions. They
2:25
stay surprisingly secure, too, even
2:27
while walking or light workouts. They
2:29
don't slip off. The touch controls work
2:31
well, letting you adjust volume, skip
2:34
tracks, or answer calls with a quick
2:36
tap. Speaking of calls, the built-in
2:38
microphones deliver clear, natural voice
2:41
quality even in moderately noisy
2:43
Hi guys, this is a quick microphone
2:45
check video and this is how my voice
2:47
sound like without using airbud
2:48
microphone. This is a quick microphone
2:50
test or the sound pets earbuds and you
2:53
guys need to tell me how these are going
2:55
to sound like and which one is a clear
2:57
winner. Tell me in the comment section
2:59
When paired with your phone, the sound
3:01
pets app opens up even more features.
3:04
You can check battery levels, toggle
3:06
LDAC for near lossless audio, enable
3:09
game mode for low latency, and even
3:11
customize your sound using an eightband
3:14
EQ that works in real time. You can also
3:16
disable touch controls, update firmware,
3:19
or locate your earbuds if you misplace
3:21
them. These thoughtful details really
3:23
elevate the experience. Now, fancy
3:26
features are great, but none of it
3:27
matters if they don't sound good. And
3:29
this is where the Pearl Clip Pros
3:30
genuinely surprised me. The sound feels
3:33
open, natural, and detailed, like the
3:35
music is floating around your head
3:36
instead of being trapped in your ears.
3:38
The stage is wide, vocals are crisp, and
3:41
mids sound beautifully clean. Acoustic
3:43
tracks and live performances shine. It's
3:46
like you're right there in the same room
3:47
as the artist. The bass is balanced
3:49
rather than heavy. It doesn't punch like
3:51
in-ear models, but it feels tight and
3:54
natural. For most listeners, the overall
3:56
sound is rich, airy, and refreshing. a
3:59
blend of bone conduction openness with
4:01
the clarity of traditional earbuds. Of
4:03
course, there are trade-offs because
4:05
they don't seal your ears, you'll still
4:07
hear your surroundings. That's great for
4:09
safety and awareness when walking
4:10
outside, but not ideal in noisy
4:13
environments. Still, the comfort and
4:16
natural listening experience make the
4:18
trade-off absolutely worth it. You can
4:20
wear these for hours without that ear
4:22
fatigue you get from sealed earbuds. So,
4:25
what's the verdict? For around 60 bucks,
4:27
the Sound Pete's Pearl Clip Pros punch
4:29
way above their weight. They look
4:31
stylish, sound fantastic, and stay
4:34
comfortable for hours. They're not for
4:35
hardcore bass lovers or strict audio
4:37
files. But for casual listeners who
4:39
value clarity, comfort, and awareness,
4:42
these are outstanding. Being able to
4:44
enjoy premium highresolution sound while
4:46
keeping your ears open to the world is
4:48
something truly unique. And Sound Petat
4:51
nailed it here. If you're thinking about
4:53
trying them, check out the links in the

4:57

4:59
