About this deal

The Belkin Soundform True Wireless Earbuds have skipped trying to emulate Apple AirPods like so many other earbuds. Instead, they favor a more chunky design that feels a little safer in your fingers.

True Wireless Earbuds - Belkin US SoundForm Rise True Wireless Earbuds - Belkin US

The Soundform Rise True Wireless Earbuds themselves are the perfect size. They’re actually a better fit than the more expensive Soundform Freedom True Wireless Earbuds (more on them below). They’re quite bulky but the bulkiness isn’t inside your ear, nor is it on the stem, and I think that’s what makes them the most comfortable out of the three Soundform sets.

Camera Here you’ll find expert opinions on the latest cameras from Canon, Nikon, Sony and plenty more. The noise-cancelling is good and if it wasn’t for the length of these making them not only a little uncomfortable, but a little ugly, they’d score another point. At the gym: Eek these are no good for exercising. I can hear (and really feel) each step on the treadmill. The fact they aren’t noise-cancelling also means I can hear the music playing over the gym’s speakers and hear people talking next to me. Move Plus buds with charging pad.

SOUNDFORM™ Rise True Wireless Earbuds | Belkin

Fortunately, the Belkin Soundform True Wireless Earbuds are also far from harsh. Nor are they excessively bassy. They're just so solidly middle-of-the-road that you won't feel any particularly strong emotion either way about them. It's all curiously soulless and functional. The case itself offers up to 24 hours of battery life which is good because you won't want to recharge it too often thanks to that outdated micro-USB connectivity rather than USB-C – and it’s better than the AirPods. The Belkin Soundform True Wireless Earbuds offer IPX5 sweat and water resistance which is great if you're working out hard or you're liable to get caught in a rain shower, but won't be up to scratch when swimming or submerged in any way. That's fair enough at this price point, though.From the other end, the reports were ‘your voice sounds more natural than the last pair’ (the Rise) and ‘it’s more realistic’. The earbuds come with spare silicone tips in different sizes so you can find the right fit for you, although we found the standard one was perfect for our relatively small ears. The earbuds are very lightweight and easy to slide into your ears with minimal hassle. The case isn’t the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen, but it fits in my hand fine and weighs 48 grams. The case itself offers a simple set of four LED lights with each representing how much charge you have left in the case. It's simple and straightforward to glance at. On a phone call: Cover your ears with your hands. OK. Now talk. Yeah. That’s how your own voice sounds when you’re on a phone call. I can hear myself way too much and my voice overpowers the voice of the person on the other end.

Car Our revheads bring you all you need to know on the coolest electric vehicles and sports cars available on the market.They do fit inside the ear nicely and there’s none of that suction-like pain. I also kept these in for a good 50 minutes before taking one out (it was only then I realised they were getting uncomfortable). Image: Asha Barbaschow/Gizmodo Australia Noise-cancelling – or what Belkin is calling ‘closed/environmental noise cancelling’ was a good addition. The person on the other end (my dad, shout out to him for helping me with this review), was clear enough, but sounded fairly distorted (like we were talking over Skype on dialup). The Soundform Move Plus True Wireless Earbuds themselves are very big. Far too big for my ears, in fact. It feels like they’ve been shoved into my ear and it wasn’t a pretty sight when I pulled them out (it also felt like I was uncorking a bottle). On the plus side, they didn’t fall out while jogging. Someone who wants all-round headphones that are good enough. Belkin has clearly made these not for music-lovers and not for people who make a lot of phone calls, but that’s ok because there’s a lot of people that just want headphones that do all the basic shit really well, for a super affordable price. These would be perfect for someone who watches a lot of videos on their phone and doesn’t make overly long phone calls. The fact you can take one bud out and still have sound would be perfect for a lot of people.
