I believe we can find that many iPhone users will wear Apple's AirPods wireless headset when we go out for a walk. The author is no exception, but from the price point of view, more than 1000 yuan is not cheap for most people, even if it is convenient and handsome.
Are there any products that can replace AirPods? The author recently got a TicPods Free wireless headset. Like AirPods, it is also a true wireless headset, which means there is no "cable". How about the experience?
Appearance design
The outer package of TicPods Free is very small and light. It is a milk white color box. The color of the earphones we got this time is red, so we can see a bright red wireless headset printed on the top and the words TicPods Free on the bottom.

（ Take it out, you can see the main box with headphones ）
（ List of accessories: main box, lanyard and a charging line ）
（ The box has a microUSB interface for charging ）
（ Close view of the headset: it can be found that there are two contacts on it for charging ）
TicPods Free adopts an in ear design. The contact with the ear is made of silicone. In addition, it also includes a pair of medium sized earmuffs. If the user's earhole is not very large, they can replace a pair of earmuffs.
In terms of appearance design, TicPods Free has a brilliant appearance, especially our（ Official number: Love to play computer games ）The bright red color match I got this time（ Officially known as "Rock Red" ）, very young and energetic. The appearance after wearing it is also very handsome. The author is very fond of this kind of bright color matching products, so in terms of design, you can praise it.
Usage&App
The pairing method is also very simple. After downloading the "go out and ask" app in the App Store, you can click to add a device inside to complete it. There is no difficulty in getting started, just like using an ordinary Bluetooth device.
Then when you wear the headset, TicPods Free can detect that the user is listening, and the song will automatically start to play. Like AirPods, when you take off the headset, the music will automatically pause. After you wear the headset, the music will continue to play. In this way, the embarrassing situation of forgetting to turn off the song and then playing music all the time will not occur, causing the headset to lose power.
In the app, you can check the remaining power of TicPods Free. If the user is not familiar with it, he can also check some tutorials in the app, which is very intuitive. In addition, it is OK to buy other products or check various kinds of content in the mall.

Minor operations
TicPods Free has a long ear handle. This area can be used for gesture operation. Officially, this function is called "scratching touch".
For example, when you want to adjust the volume, just slide up and down in this area, and the sound will increase or decrease. This song is not good. Do you want the next one? It's very simple. You can skip this song with just two taps.

（ Tap twice to switch to the next song ）
The use of TicPods Free can also call Siri. Just put your finger on the right ear handle for two seconds to complete the operation, without taking out your mobile phone or shouting "Hey, Siri" in the crowded street. If you are an Android native party user, you can also use Google Assistant. If you are not a native party user, going out to ask can also help you solve this problem, so it is the VPA that comes with the app to ask the voice assistant.
VPA voice assistant can also realize many functions, such as sending SMS, making phone calls, checking weather conditions around the country, and even entertaining the voice assistant. It can be used to meet ordinary basic needs. It is completely OK.
tone quality
Since it is a headset, how about the sound quality? After a few hours of listening experience, the performance is OK, but not very amazing. The bass is not particularly good, the diving is average, and the overall level is relatively flat. But considering that it is not the main focus, it can also be understood. But if you usually listen to music with the earphones attached to the iPhone, I believe that TicPods Free will not disappoint you.
This wireless headset is equipped with the eighth generation CVC noise elimination technology, which can eliminate environmental noise and achieve clearer sound quality when making calls. After several rounds of calls, it can be found that it is indeed possible, which is better than the effect of making calls with ordinary headphones.
In terms of battery life, the main box is equipped with a battery with a capacity of 700 mAh, while a single headset is equipped with a battery with a capacity of 85 mAh. In the process of listening to songs in recent days, the author has never tried to run out of battery power. The official claim is that TicPods Free can achieve a 4-hour battery life with a full charge.
summary
After this period of experience, it can be said that TicPods Free has left a good impression on the author. From the functional perspective, it is enough to replace AirPods, such as scratching touch control. With a few finger clicks, you can achieve the next song, volume increase or decrease, or exhale Siri and other operations. In addition, there are also music pauses automatically when you take off the headphones, and music continues to play when you put on the headphones.
In addition, the design of TicPods Free is also very good in terms of face value. The bright red color makes it very young and dynamic after wearing it. Perhaps its disadvantage is that it performs mediocrely in terms of sound quality. This rock star sells for 599 yuan. For users who don't want to spend more than 1000 yuan on AirPods, TicPods Free will be a good choice.
