Trust you're keeping safe in these uncertain times?

Living at home can be quite frustrating, your noisy kids, the oddly noisy neighbor or your MIL whistling.gif

So whenever I feel I need some alone time (read;away from my family), I rely on my trusted earbuds to keep me company.

With that said, I'd like to present to my 'very-average' review of Tronsmart's latest iteration - the Onyx Ace TWS Wireless Earphones

Had a lot of fun during the unboxing of this nifty little thingamajig, pictured here with the Ultra-Slim USB-C 10k Tronsmart Power Bank

minimal and no-fuss packaging

It's biggest selling point are that these are cheaper alternatives to 'Airpods' offering clarity in voice calls with it's Quad-Microphone and Environment Noise Cancelling features. Fiddling with them over the weekend it felt like the calls still sometimes suffer from the dreaded echos but the overall quality vastly improved when compared to its older brothers Tronsmart Spunky Beat and the 1st-gen Tronsmart Pro.

or if you'd prefer, comparison with its older brother, the Tronsmart Spunky Beat

Pros
- clarity and noise cancellation works pretty well
- excellent sound quality
- small case, easy to carry
- long-lasting battery life
- minimal white light, excellent for use in dark-rooms
- surprisingly snug on the ear, but can be troublesome when lying down
- Instant connection, its on-ear detection feature instantly switched on my music player when engaged

Cons
- takes some getting used to with it's one-tap control motions, compared to the older gens these comes with new tap function
- fingerprint magnet, hope Tronsmart will stick to its 'matte' finishing which makes them unique

Verdict
Is this the 'Airpod' killer?

That's really a matter of preference if you ask me. Would I spend RM 700 for an Apple instead of something that costs <RM 200 for features that is almost as good as them?

I'll let you decide.

Signing off,
Your very-average reviewer
