MEE Audio X7 Plus Earphones – our experience…
Bluetooth earphones are becoming more important as key phone brands ditch the 3.5 mm jack socket and are supporting wireless headphones.
Mee Audio produce a range of headphones and earpieces for all, of interest here are the in-ear rechargeable model, the X7 Plus. Boasting nearly 8 hours of playback and sweat resistant properties they are perfect for the runner looking for a reliable way to listen to music without the tangle of cables.
Out of the box everything is pretty straight forward, instructions are simple and you will be paired up to your chosen music source with ease. Pairing proved quick and everything from iPhone, iPad to desktop computer paired with ease.
The unit comes with three ear bud options for best fit your given ear size, again it’s a simple job to swap them to ensure they fit snugly in the ear canal. They proved easy to locate and felt very comfortable when you get the correct position, you will know when they are in place, they will feel correctly located! The phones cable wraps around the top and back of your ear and the special memory wire keeps its shape and helps maintain the ear pieces secure location. A cable “cinch” further ensures a secure grip on the back of your head.
In place in the ear and out on the run the phones didn’t move and delivered great sound whilst out training. The snug fit ensures very good sound delivery, effectively cutting out plenty of external sound allowing you to focus on the audio. The locked-in fit ensures you are not having to refit the phones on the fly.
The earphones are lightweight and comfortable making them an exceptional option for longer use. Some comparable brands can become a little awkward after longer use making your ear feel a little sore. The X7 Pluses have shown to be really comfortable with extended wear.
