On May 23, iQOO launched iQOO TWS Air Pro, the first semi in ear active noise reduction headset of iQOO, at a price of 299 yuan and 269 yuan for the first launch.

Simple specifications

The iQOO TWS Air Pro single ear is 4g, and the whole weight is 38.5g. The headset supports IP54 waterproof. 14.2mm dynamic unit, Bluetooth 5.3, up to AAC, dual microphones, semi in ear active noise reduction. The minimum delay is 88ms, and the noise reduction unit can last for 6 hours with a charging box for 30 hours.

The packaging and accessories of iQOO TWS Air Pro are very simple. The highlight is environmental protection.

We have the "Star Shining Yellow" color matching (matte), and the white version with smooth surface.

Considering that the smooth surface is easy to scratch and prevent others from thinking that we are wearing AirPods, the black version is definitely recommended. Although the earphone body is full optical.

The headphone box shaft is tight, and the virtual position is small. The lid is adjusted so that I can't wait to open it. I don't like it very much.

Wear: The advantage of half ear penetration is, of course, not tired after wearing it for a long time. The single ear weighs 4g, so it's easy to wear it for an afternoon. As for the tightness, different users may have completely different wearing feelings for semi earphones that are not highly similar to AirPods. Here is just for reference: individuals will not fall off when they run/shake their heads, but they are easy to knock off from the back. Sometimes they want to change songs and reach out to loose or knock off the earphones

APP： Non vivo/iQOO mobile phone users need to download the "vivo headset" APP (58.1MB, lighter than OPPO's industry model "Huanlv" APP). You can use AAC without downloading it (nonsense). Because earphones have few functions, the APP is as simple as its packaging.

Operation: Double click can be used to "play/pause, cut songs up/down, call out voice assistant", while long press can only be used to turn on/off noise reduction.

The touch control area is large, double click is sensitive and responsive, and it is very easy to use. Long press takes nearly 3 seconds to respond. Every time the switch is used to reduce noise, the 3 seconds waiting for its response are as long as a century.

tone quality:

The bass of semi earphones is not to mention. It is directly related to how tight you wear them. From head banging to no head banging, they can be completely controlled manually.

If you wear it well, the iQOO TWS Air Pro is a tri frequency balanced/very durable/plain boiled water type: mainly the high frequency is prominent, the high frequency is clear, the spatial separation is still slow, the voice is remote, the sound field is not large, and the dynamic response and information density are general. Overall, there is still a gap between the Olympic Games and my original route, but there is no pressure to rank in the middle and upper reaches of the 300 yuan level, even a little easier.

Unfortunately, iQOO TWS Air Pro does not have EQ adjustment for equalizer, and there are only five sound effect modes, and only standard and e-sports sound effects (enhancing atmosphere and voice) can play.

Noise reduction:

There are two gears for noise reduction: balanced and mild.

The half in ear structure (it is difficult to fit the ear perfectly all the time) determines the noise reduction of the iQOO TWS Air Pro, which has high requirements for wearing (directly related to the shape of your ear and the tightness of your ear). Just flick the headset, The noise reduction level can be switched seamlessly from 0 to "OPPO Enco X level" ……

The fit between the iQOO TWS Air Pro and this handsome boy's ear is OK, and even a bit amazing when wearing it for the first time. This is the noise reduction level that Xiaomi Buds 4 (released in December 22 at a price of 699 yuan) and Huawei FreeBuds 4 (released in May 21 at a price of 999 yuan) have not reached in the past (it may also be that they do not match my ear shape so well).

Streaming saving means: Far exceeded my expectations for half in ear noise reduction And slight ear pressure. It was unexpected after several reincarnations that noise reduction could coexist with the "sense of breath".

summary

For personal use, the iQOO TWS Air Pro noise reduction level is a bit like the Enco W51 in those days. Different people's auricles may have completely different experiences. The headphone product is still the same sentence: if conditions permit, it is better to listen on the spot before making a decision.

Of course, with the technology of 2023, no matter how good the semi in ear noise reduction can be, it still cannot be compared with the same level of in ear noise reduction earphones - people on the road or on the bus and subway will doubt whether they have turned on noise reduction.

However, the semi in ear design that has been worn for a long time makes the iQOO TWS Air Pro very suitable for filtering noises that are not loud in the office or at home (if there is a noise at home). I would like to call it a special earphone for office use, and the price is quite conscientious.

Oh, yes, vivo has a vivo TWS Air Pro ↑. Besides Moster Soud, iQOO TWS Air Pro has the same appearance, hardware and price (especially the white version).
