B&O PLAY E8 TRUE WIRELSS EARBUDS: HIT OR MISS...

2018-01-17
what is a guys bTW back here again with another review it's been a while I know I've been moving I've been trying to organize all my things and trying to find time to film on top of all of that I've had get-togethers with friends and family almost every day but starting now we will be back on track we are gonna be on our normal release schedule all right so with that out of the way the first review of the year is the B & O play EA true wireless earbuds which has been hugely requested by you guys so I finally decided to check them out and see what the hype was about from the outside looking in though I've always seen B&O as one of those expensive niche brands that charge you a ton of cash but give you little value so I never picked any of their headphones up but they each looked promising so I picked them up so let's find out today if they are worth that hefty price tag of three hundred dollars almost two times the cost of ear pods might I add in the box you'll find the headphones the charger and three silicon tips noticeably missing our wings and this is where I ran into some fit issues 1/2 of medium sized ears and usually my ears can fit almost any wireless earbuds comfortably but not these they stay in but I have this feeling of they're gonna fall out while I'm wearing them or walking or exercising now I know the wings would mess up the beautiful aesthetics of these earbuds but they are necessary in this case also the silicone tips they include are almost abnormally small if they are going to exclude wings than they need bigger silicone tips to keep them from falling out of your ear these also feature touch controls on each side from playing and pausing music on the ride and skipping forward in songs on the right earbud on the Left earbud if you press two times you just get back a track touching and holding will increase the volume and decrease the volume on either side I find that the controls are just ok not as good as something like the icon X 2018 controls but they do a pretty good job of doing what you need you may find that you have to touch or tap 2 times or try multiple times to get the earbuds to act the way that you want them to act when I first put on the e eights they were terrible muddy super laid back and to be honest I thought I bought a $5 pair of earbuds so I took them off and I put my phone at high volume and I lit the earbuds burn in for hours about three hours to be exact I picked them back up and that EAS were totally transformed it's night and day so I can see how some people on Amazon they may put them on and start complaining they probably put them on and experience what I experienced with the EAS and that is a very muddy experience now what I had heard of bno is that they tend to be on the bright side focusing more on highs than anything else and if you love clarity you will love these great for classical and rock they also can give you a new perspective on your hip hop and EDM music as well these don't sound like anything that I've tried before but that's not all they've added in an equaliser as well and what I like about their equalizer is that they've simplified it for the common user you can drag the ball over to warm excited relaxed etc then expand the circle to increase that certain sound signature isn't that pretty cool no need to tinker with all the wave frequencies like some other apps that may intimidate some beginners so these can go great with any type of music you want to listen to I personally love the warm setting dragging that ball over to the warm and expanding it that gives you a lot of bass and brings up the mids these I would say after burning the men are probably the best sounding true wireless earbuds on the market that I've heard to date so they advertised four to six hours of battery-life and i roughly got about four hours never getting anywhere close to five or six hours so it's good not great in this case the case also provides two additional charges summing up to 12 hours of battery life total so I would have liked to seen a full 24 hours for those of you who like to travel the charging case and the ear buds take about two hours to fully charge which is also very nice another area where these ear buds really impressed me is the call quality which is simply incredible I think these can compete with the air pods I definitely recommend these for those of you who spend hours on the phone when they're talking or it's your job or for important calls they sound great now a lot of true wireless earbuds have been suffering from delay through the Bluetooth these have that problem but it's so slight it's oh you almost have to be looking forward to really tell videos are very washable with these earbuds so I was very impressed with the e8 I did get random pickups that would happen during my music it was for no apparent reason I could be just sitting in my room I think it's that the e AIT's kind of reset their connection every couple of like 30 to an hour it's really weird they're like clicks for a second and it goes back to normal it doesn't really interrupt anything it just makes a small little clip but that problem is not the end of the world the distance you can walk away from your phone was a little disappointing I will get about 20 feet away when I would leave my phone at my desk I'll walk over to my copier at work and they would disconnect and usually with most earbuds nowadays I can walk I can make that walk and it'd be okay but with these don't plan on leaving them in your bag while you go and work out or anything like that in conclusion these are some of the best sounding true wireless earbuds to date but they come at a hefty price tag of $300 if they added wings for the earbuds I think these would rival some of the biggest players in the game out there well not perfect if you have to have the best of the best sound you don't work out or anything crazy or do marathons with your earbuds and these could be the ones for you but keep in mind it's really hit or miss with a fit and if you miss these miss very hard alright guys so that's gonna do it for this review don't forget to
