ADDITIONAL REVIEW NOTES:
THE REVIEW:
DISCLAIMER:
This video was not sponsored. This video has no affiliate links. I purchased both the E55 and E25 to test these out. No bias, no conflicts of interest, just a good old genuine review with tests to prove my conclusions
No disrespect YouTubers accepting this sponsorship. Not everyone has tested as many earbuds as I, nor as intensely. Raycon is a legitimate brand and is not a scam. I purchased two pairs and received them, and they are functioning wireless earbuds. The question is whether or not they are as good as their bold claims.
PHYSICAL:
Fit test
Comfort = includes 5 extra gel tips
Durability
Wireless charging = E55 only
Colors = 5 different colors each
Aesthetics – vote in comments
Water resistance = IPX4 on E55 only
FEATURES:
6/36h battery on E55, 24/6h on E25
Price = $120 and $80 but there is always a 15% off coupon
Single point connection = yes!l
Auto play/pause = no
MIC TEST
AUDIO QUALITY:
CODECS = unknown
Single point connection on both!
Lag test = about 1/10 sec lag
Passive noise blocking = just ok
ANC = No
Audio quality:
VERY muddy in E55, lots of bass. E25s are muddy too.
Bass is boomy and not tight at all (E55)
Somewhat dark (E55)
Shallow depth and weak instrument separation (E55)
E25 have terrible instrument detail and separation, sound like a $15 pair of earbuds.
Low bass is very prominent, borderline seismic (E55)
Bass is still very prominent in E25 but not as seismic. Seems a bit bloated with an emphasis around 200Hz
Overall balance is a mess, not natural, and sound is not analytical, but if you listen to Steve Aoki, they would be fun (E55)
Definitely not the best audio in the business.
