truefree O2 Open Ear Headphones with Directional Acoustics, Ultra-Light Weight, IPX5 Waterproof, 22H Playtime, Multipoint Connection, App Control, Bluetooth 5.3 Wireless Earbuds for Workouts

I will acknowledge that while I own many pairs of different types and brands of headphones, these are only the second pair of open ear headphones that I have owned; the first being the truefree O1’s. I can’t speak on how these compare to other open ear headphones aside from its predecessor, but I can speak on the quality of the headphones on a general basis especially keeping in mind that many other brands and models of open ear headphones are multiple times the cost. As far as how they compare to the O1’s, I think the O2’s are a nice upgrade in quality and they are listed at essentially the same price. I say this because I thought the O1’s were well worth the price so in my opinion these headphones are absolutely worth the price. As far as sound quality goes, they’re pretty good from an overall perspective. Don’t expect them to sound like really expensive headphones because they’re not, but these headphones also won’t run you hundreds of dollars. The bass is actually a nice surprise on these. They obviously don’t quite compare to something along the lines of medium to high quality studio headphones in terms of bass, but for headphones of this size and type the bass is better than expected even in comparison to the O1’s. These headphones can also manage a pretty loud volume. As far as comfort goes these headphones are very comfortable to wear. Though this is presumably true for many open ear headphones, they don’t lead to discomfort with prolonged use like buds and studio headphones do. I have worn them for many hours on end and have never had issues with discomfort or aching. In comparison to the O1’s these fit much tighter to the ear and stay on much better. I can and have gone for runs in these headphones and never had issues with them falling out of my ears. I haven’t even encountered moments where they felt like they “might” fall out. While on the subject of running, I haven’t specifically tested the water resistance of the headphones, but I have used them for runs and working out and sweat has never caused any issues for them. I can’t say I’ve timed the headphones’ battery life, but I’ve used them many times for 4-6 hours a pop and they’ve never died on me. I’ve used them for longer than 6 hours with breaks in between where I popped them into their case until resuming use and have never had them die on me in those instances. For example, if I’m working a long day, but take a 45-minute break for lunch I’ll pop them in the case while eating and then finish out the rest of my work day without having any issues with the battery. That said they seem to charge pretty quickly from the case. And the case itself charges pretty quickly as well. The case has a solid battery. I can’t say I’ve kept an exact record of how many hours of charge (for the headphones) the case holds, but the claim of 22 hours seems accurate if not an undersell. It charges the headphones automatically when placed inside and holds them into their places magnetically nice and snug. The case itself feels nice and solid and has a sleek design to it though it’s nothing super fancy. One of the things I really like about these headphones is that they connect within seconds of the case simply being opened. By the time I even have them on my ears, they’ve long been connected. And while there doesn’t seem to be a claim about the Bluetooth’s connection range, I have tested them out and found them to reach over 60 feet through multiple walls, walls, objects, doors and even all this in addition to exterior masonry walls. So that said the Bluetooth connection on these headphones is very solid. As far as the mic goes you can definitely tell that you’re using headphones from the other end of a phone call (though I find this to be the case with essentially all my headphones), but the sound quality comes through clear. I also find the sensitivity of the touch functions to be very ideal. They are just the right balance of being responsive without being too sensitive so you don’t end up triggering functions when you’re simply trying to adjust them. I know I touched on a lot and I’m sure there are some aspects/functions of the headphones that I skipped over in reviewing, but at the end of the day my final opinion is this: If you’re looking for a reliable, comfortable pair of open ear headphones without wanting to spend a lot of money to go super-high quality then these are well worth the purchase.

I have been wearing them all day for over a week and find that they are light and easy to wear all day. They sound great, the nonstop play time is LONG, the touch controls are easy to activate, and the APP gives additional options! I have many in-ear, over-the-ear and open-ear headphones. I like to sometimes have open-ear headphones so I can hear what is happening around me. I wanted a lightweight pair with long play time, great sound, a small charging case footprint, easy controls, water resistant, and customizable sound. These have it all! The little oval case is about 3.5” long x 2” wide x 1” thick. It is like a rounded skipping stone that fits in the palm of the hand. I get 3 recharges off the case! The case recharges quickly using USB-C (a separate 3” cable comes with the case). As with all TrueFree headphones I have purchased, these were packed very elegantly in a box. On unpacking, I opened the headphone case and was greeted by the solid green dot on the case indicating it had a full charge. The stages of decreased charge state are indication intuitively on the single case light from solid to blinking and running through green, yellow, then red. I pulled out the headphones and removed the protective tape on the charge ports and put them back in, in case they needed to charge. There was a printed user guide in multiple languages. When I wanted to use them, I put them on and was very happy to find they were nearly imperceptible to wear. I don’t feel them at all. Left and right are marked on each earphone. In the APP on my phone (installed, signed in, and paired to the O2 set), I navigated to settings and performed a Firmware update for the headphones. That took only a moment. Then I tried out the different preset equalizers (EQ) and even made a few of my own. There is a wide range for adjustment to sound preference. I also went to a very quiet room and performed the hearing test. This generated a personalized EQ to my terrible hearing (lots of tinnitus). After choosing an EQ, I checked the charge state on each headphone - which can be seen in the APP. Finally, I started listening, the sound quality is fantastic. Still, I could hear ambient noises, so wearing these while running water for dishes or vacuuming made them harder to hear. However, the volume is STRONG! In a quiet setting, I am happy at 20- 30% and have room to spare if surrounding sounds are louder. I easily synced them with my phone, turned off phone Bluetooth and then quickly synced them with my computer. With Bluetooth on for both, the headphones work with whichever is playing sound. As with many headphones that pair to multiple devices, the one with sound takes over. If I turn off either device Bluetooth or “dual device connection” in the APP, then it will only connect to one at a time. I have taken a phone call on the headphones and was told I sound very natural. While they state 6.5 hours per charge, I think my first use of these lasted close to 8 hours before I was warned that the power was low! I am also super happy that these are water resistant. They are IPX5 (meaning protected from a stream of low-pressure water at any angle for up to 10 – 15 minutes ) making them suitable for workouts, bathing, showering, jacuzzi, or rain under 10-15 minutes. No swimming! NOTE for using with rain, showers, water sprays: the app allows turning off the touch controls so that water does not activate them and change sound, however I am finding that wet hair sitting on the headphones does turn them off. I am VERY happy with these and I recommend them. Now, about the APP (see images): While the APP is not required for normal headphone use, it does allow updates to the firmware, seeing headphone specific charge state, and personalizing the EQ and touch settings, etc. FYI, when the APP is opened it creates a new instance for itself in Bluetooth settings (mine says “ATS3025”), close the APP and that goes away. The APP allows sending issues to tech support (under Help and Feedback, pressing the avatar at the upper left corner) and also performing Firmware updates (in settings found at the upper right corner), so any little issues that arise in the APP get addressed and the headphones get updates. Once signed in to the APP the first time, it does not need to be done again. Each time the APP is opened, I quickly “Accept” and “Connect Device”. I watched the video in Amazon Qs on how to get to the register screen.( I think after selecting accept, I clicked “forgot” at the bottom and that is where the register option was. Enter email, enter a “letter only” password, click to get a code sent to email. Enter the code in the minute allotted, view the terms again and click Register. Try again if it does nothing. It will work after a few tries.) The APP lets me see the charge level of each earphone. I find this useful when deciding if I should charge them and use a different pair when planning on doing some things. The APP offers many preset EQ to select from as well as offering a customizable and savable EQ option. This makes me VERY happy, and I have been refining my own custom settings to suit my hearing! I love that I can DISABLE ALL TOUCH CONTROLS here! I have long hair and, when wet, I accidentally stop, play, or turn sound up or down. Disabling touch on demand is the solution. Game mode and dual device connection and be turned on/off in the APP. There is also a place to customize the touch settings. There is also a hearing test to personalize the EQ. This is very cool as it tests hearing sensitivity across a spectrum of sound frequency types in about 2 minutes and uses this to generate a personalized EQ setting. I would love to learn more about the tweaks made based on my weird hearing!

They impressed me overall with their audio quality and design, although there are a few areas that could use improvement. The clarity during phone calls is outstanding, as if they're right next to you. The audio only needs 20-30% to fully enjoy in quiet places and 50%+ for public. Also, when you open the case, the power on announcement is a set volume which might get to you at first because it's a bit high and your audio won't play until you take them out the case so can't use them like a mini speakers. The earbuds sit great in my ears, with the speakers curved inside for better quality. The charging case has a smooth texture that feels nice, although it's a bit slick and could easily slip from your hands. Battery life is amazing, offering 22 hours when utilizing the case, but I've had it last more than a week. It has the basic GYR color for battery life and red can last a couple days before they die completely. I do wish the touch controls were a bit more intuitive; they're only activate once audio is playing, which you get use to after a while. Additionally, a broader range of color options would be welcome, as the current orange neon and gray carbon design isn't my favorite but it grows on you. Nonetheless, these earbuds strike a solid balance between performance and comfort, making them a worthwhile investment for anyone seeking quality audio on the go.

I have had these for a couple of months now I was going to order the Super expensive ones but these had good reviews and they are far better than the basic ones I have been using would definitely recommend. battery life seems good It obviously depends how often and how long you wear them for but quite adequate for normal listening

Mijn beste oortelefoon ooit: geweldig geluid en ik hoor mijn omgeving. Ik voel ze niet en kan er zelfs een bril bij dragen. Mijn vriendin heeft heel kleine oren en bij haar passen ze niet. Ik heb gelukkig grotere oren.

Super son très pratique pour le sport confort auditif top

Despues de usarlos por una semana les comparto mis experiencias con este nuevo producto de TrueFree que son la evolucion de unos excelentes auriculares de conduccion por aire, estos 02. Veo gratamente que la marca le puso enfasis a este upgrade que la verdad ademas de ser super comodos han mejorado en la calidad y potencia del audio, pero vayamos por partes. Hablando de la comodidad si tu eres de las personas que no les gusta traer algo "encajado" en el canal auditivo pues dejame decirte que este es el producto recomendado la verdad, no solo es como y liviano ademas de bonito (obvio esto es subjetivo) sino que ademas cuenta con una excelente duracion de bateria rondando las 6 - 7 horas con un promedio de 60% de volumen que de paso sea dicho creo yo es mas que suficiente para disfrutar de tu musica favorita sobre todo en ambientes no tan ruidosos como un cafe, una banca en el parque y lugares asi ya que si los utilizas para por ejemplo andar en bicicleta o ir caminando por la via publica puede que requieras de un poco mas de volumen pero aun asi su duracion en bateria sigue siendo segun mi perspectiva bastante bueno sinceramente. Estos auriculares alcanzan un volumen alto por lo que veo muy poco probable que los vayas a llevar hasta el limite de su potencia pero claro dependera de cada quien... cuentan con multipunto por lo que puedes conectar dos dispositivos (solo pudiendo usar uno a la vez) y tienen BT5.3 lo cual es de lo mas nuevo que hay en el mercado por lo que no debes de tener problemas con compatibilidad en diferentes gatgets de reproduccion de sonido... su driver es dinamico y es de gran tamaño, muy grande de hecho lo que le brinda esa subida fuerte de volumen pero no por ello dejando de lado la calidad del audio ya que cuenta con muuuy poca distorcion a altos volumenes (nada que una buena ecualizacion no solucione). Su case de guardado que al mismo tiempo funciona como centro de carga para los auriculares les permiten un par adicional de cargas por lo que no tendras preocupaciones tampoco en ello y en la cajita viene su cable el cual es tipo C que ya es el estandar de mercado actual... la carga del case es de alrededor de un par de horas mientras que los auriculares al estar dentro de ella se cargan mas o menos en poco mas de 1 hora al 100% si esque los dejaste completamente sin carga. Hablando de sus controles estos te permiten tener todas las funciones necesarias para controlar tu musica, el asistente o el modo juego de baja latencia y algo que me parecio por demas excelente es que la aplicacion para tu digamos celular android ademas de actualizar el firmware de ellos tambien te permite cambiar lo que deseas que hagan segun los gestos que hagas en cada auricular ya sea el izquierdo o el derecho por lo que de verdad estan muuuy personalizables y muy funcionales asi que un 100 ahi para la marca. Cuentan con microfonos para ser usados como manos libres dando un muy buen nivel de claridad si los usas para las llamadas y te permiten contestar sin necesidad de sacar tu celular de la bolsa o bolso segun sea el caso asi que de nuevo, muy bien ahi en los controles tactiles. Hablemos del sonido que a fin de cuentas es creo yo de lo mas importante ya que obvio son auriculares para escuchar musica y algo mas... los agudos estan bien presentes pero al ser de conduccion aerea hay que ecualizarlos bien ya que este tipo de frecuencias son las que menos se pierden al "circular" por aire asi que bien ecualizada tu musica no tendras problema alguno con ellos; los medios rangos estan bien traidos al frente y muy claros la verdad asi que las voces en las canciones no te daran problema alguno; lo mas dificil de ecualizar a mi parecer son los bajos ya que al ser un driver tan grande si adicionas demasiado puedes "cartonear" un poco en la musica pero si le encuentras bien el modo creeme que estan bien distribuidos, fuertes y de buena intensidad exceptuando el bajo que yo denominaria profundo el reverberante tipico por ejemplo de rap o del hiphop ahi puede que te falte un poco mas de contundecia pero es obvio por el tipo de producto de sistema abierto y vamos a ser honestos ya que este tipo de auriculares estan pensados para el deporte y las actividades al aire libre o de gym asi que estas consiente del uso que les vas a dar creeme que los disfrutaras mucho. La verdad estoy muy complacido pues veo que la evolucion de los anteriores 01 a estos nuevos 02 fue muy buena en todos los puntos por lo que sinceramente no veo inconveniente en que estos sean mis nuevos auriculares deportivos y los otros pues se los regalare a uno de mis familiares ya que esta evolucion es perfecta de la marca... el precio si hay claras diferencias con los anteriores peeero viendo los beneficios y el crecimiento satisfactorio en funciones potencia y sonido pues creo yo que lo valen sinceramente. Gracias si llegaste hasta aqui y espero que mis puntos te sean de utilidad si tienes pensado adquirir este muy buen par de auriculares TrueFree 02... no te vas a arrepentir y si tienes las espectativas centradas en el uso para lo que fueron concebidos pues la verdad te esperan horas de difrutar tu musica en ellos... Saludos y Felices compras!!!

Super satisfait
