These handsome little earbuds have a lightweight design (just under 4g per bud) and a comfortable semi-in-ear fit, great if you don’t like the pressure of traditional in-ear tips. Despite the open design, they stay secure even during light workouts or commuting.in-ear fit. They come with three pairs of ear tips so you can find the right fit to keep a secure seal even if you are bouncing about in the gym. They support aptX Lossless, aptX Adaptive, and LDAC, which means you’re getting hi-res audio from compatible devices.

The 10mm dynamic drivers a decent level of bass, crisp vocals, and a surprisingly wide soundstage. Music sounds clean and vibrant, and call quality is also solid thanks to dual microphones with AI noise reduction.

The Adaptive Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) can reduce noise by up to 45–55dB, and while no ANC is perfect on semi-in-ear earbuds, it does a reasonable job dulling background hums like fans, traffic, or train noise. There’s also a Transparency Mode, which works well for quick conversations or hearing your surroundings without removing the earbuds.

The Air5 Pro supports Bluetooth 5.4 and you also get Multipoint pairing, letting you stay connected to two devices at once, perfect for switching between phone and laptop. The battery gives you around 7.5 hours per charge, and up to 37 hours with the charging case. A quick 10-minute charge gives you about 2 extra hours.

Touch controls are responsive and can be customised via the SoundPEATS app, which also lets you tweak EQ settings, toggle ANC, and activate Game Mode for low-latency audio.
All in all, the SoundPEATS Air5 Pro punches way above its weight when you consider the price. If you’re looking for affordable earbuds with real premium features, hi-res codecs, strong ANC, multipoint, and great sound, these are a no-brainer. RRP $51.99
