Wireless technology has long captured the headphone segment and quite harmoniously mastered it. The Bluetooth headset was highly appreciated by the users themselves, noting the convenience and comfort of using such gadgets. Until recently, the high cost of quality models from Sony, Philips, and Qumo has limited the distribution of these products. However, Chinese manufacturers were not long in coming, and AirBeats was one of the first to offer their models. The wireless headphones of this brand are practically no different from the devices of the brands mentioned above, but at the same time they are cheaper. Similarities and ergonomics in general are also almost the only characteristics that combine low-cost models with Sony-level products. Everything related to the internal filling and sound quality, of course, is inferior to branded counterparts.
AirBeats Headphone Overview
The design and functionality almost corresponds to the classic versions of the wireless headset. The devices are small in size, allow the owner to easily connect the sound source to the player, and if necessary, talk through the gadget on the smartphone. By the way, AirBeats wireless stereo headphones are also equipped with a microphone, which allows you to talk with the interlocutor via cellular communication, without resorting to the main device.
Another feature of the models of this brand is noteworthy. They contain controls directly in small liner housings. That is, a music lover can switch songs by clicking on the earphone itself. A special controller also allows you to adjust the sound volume, receive calls from a smartphone, etc. You can charge the device via a USB cable connected from the side of the case. But as far as sound quality is concerned, do not expect special surprises from AirBeats. Wireless headphones of this level are still universal and do not give the opportunity to fully reveal the frequency characteristics of the compositions.
Headphones
It is generally accepted that manufacturers of budget digital equipment save on additional accessories included in the basic kit. However, in this case, the set is wide and fully covers the needs of the average user of the AirBeats headset. Wireless headphones are complemented by a mini-USB cable and a plastic clip. What is especially interesting, an additional earphone is also included. It is important to distinguish between devices according to their purpose. In particular, the large main earphone is equipped with a microphone and a Bluetooth module, and the second element serves only as an in-ear player.
User's manual
First of all, you should ensure the connection of the headphones with the gadget. This is done using the main button with the Bluetooth symbol located on the insert. It must be held until the blue area flashes red and blue. It should also be borne in mind that the same button is responsible for turning on and off the audio player. After synchronization with the phone is completed, playback will continue. Next, you should consider the function of the headset itself, which can be used with AirBeats wireless headphones. The instruction notes that to receive a call, you must press the same large button, after which the phone number of the caller will be automatically dictated.
You can end a call by pressing the same central button. To make a call to the last number, double-click on it. We can say that the convenience of receiving and making calls - these are the strengths of AirBeats. Wireless headphones have a minimum of controls and give maximum opportunities - just what the segment’s leaders strive for.
Positive feedback on AirBeats models
Perhaps the main factor that attracts users to the headphones of the Chinese manufacturer is the convenience and ergonomics in general. The developers were able to fully use the advantages of a wireless headset, which is highly appreciated by the owners of the device. It also emphasizes the stable working connection and the functionality of the microphone, which does not fail during the conversation. Manufacturers from the Middle Kingdom traditionally rely on appearance - AirBeats wireless headphones are no exception. Reviews note the aesthetics of the design, which is presented in several design options.
Negative reviews
Despite the attractive appearance, the quality of the materials used in the housing is doubtful for many. According to the owners of such headphones, thin plastic is felt that is unlikely to withstand strong physical exertion. Even with falls, there is a risk of cracks in the case, which inevitably affects the quality of communication and sound reproduction. As for the characteristics of music playback, according to this criterion, users do not rate AirBeats wireless headphones. Reviews do not talk about serious distortions, as is characteristic of budget devices, but the full disclosure of the frequency spectrum is also not detected. The model is more suitable for utilitarian use, including as a convenient headset. But for sophisticated music lovers, it is still not recommended.
Conclusion
The presence on the market of fakes AirBeats indicates the success of this product. With all the shortcomings, Chinese headphones are justifiably attracting the attention of undemanding sound users who need a practical and functional gadget. Actually, it’s worth considering AirBeats devices as a convenient headset. Wireless headphones, the price of which varies between 1.5-2 thousand rubles, even theoretically can not compete with the high bar set by the brands Sony and Philips. But it’s precisely for that kind of money that AirBeats models are available on the Russian market and, according to some operational properties, the creators came close to eminent companies. It is enough to note the wide functionality of the headphones, their ergonomics and stylish design, which emphasizes the successful implementation of wireless technology.
