1More Stylish True Wireless In-Ear Headphones Review

How Much Does it Cost?
The 1More Stylish True Wireless headphones are available from today with a retail price of £89.99. They’re also available on their US Store for just $99. That’s pretty good value given the Apple alternatives are double the price. There are cheaper brands out there still, but 1More make premium headphones with premium quality, and I think they’re fantastic value overall.
Overview
Time and time again, I’ve tested 1More headphones that impress me. The new wireless models certainly live up to the high standards we’ve come to expect from 1More too, and cutting the cables really makes these some of the most versatile headphones I’ve ever owned. They’re not without their drawbacks, but they’re an elegant solution that’s sure to appeal to a lot of people.
Talk Time
At 2.5 hours usage at 50% volume, using them when you’re out and about is very much possible. Of course, in the real world, I got closer to two hours, but I tend to have them quite loud for music anyway. That being said, I rarely need them for more than an hour between charges. If I’m out for a run, or just making a shorter train journey, the battery life is spot on. Plus, with the charging dock, it doesn’t take long to get them back up to 100% and ready for the return journey. However, for a long haul flight, they’re not going to do the job, but for those journeys, I use my noise cancelling over-ear headphones anyway.
Stylish
Not only are these beautifully made, they also look truly stylish too. Flexing your favourite brand is important to some people, and 1More have that premium status that you’re hardly going to feel unfashionable while wearing them. I don’t care what people think, personally, but I know others do. Either way, I think they look fantastic and you’ll no doubt be asked where you got them when people both see them and try them out.
The build quality is premium throughout, and we wouldn’t have expected anything less. Stylish they may be, but 1More put their primary focus on build quality and performance above all else. The charging dock and the headphones feel fantastic, and the way everything fits together and functions have been very well thought out.
Should I Buy Them?
Again, they’re not something everyone needs. However, if you’re tired of those pesky cables getting in the way of your entertainment, they’re a huge step up. They’re a far cry from the retched Bluetooth hands-free earworms from years ago. Great sound quality, perfect for listening to music on the go and making calls. Plus, at around £90, they’re great value and work on a huge range of mobile devices too!
