About this deal

The Soundcore places vocals more forward and pushes upper-mids further than the Dobuds One, which in turn presents center-mids a little more natural.

New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging . Two things of note, sadly: there's no official waterproof rating - although Donner states the earbuds are waterproof, and they do indeed survive a light rainfall. Hopefully, Donner does that and more in their next release, since the core product is already well executed. The Donner DoBuds One are a fantastic addition to the competitive cheap noise-cancelling earbuds market. It doesn't cancel noise as much as I think it should for being advertised as noise canceling, but that wasn't something I was concerned about.While the earbuds come in four colors – snow white, matte black, mint green, and navy blue – I received a snow white pair for the review. Usually I am not a fan of touch controls on TWS IEMs and earbuds, but the Dobuds One have one of the better implementations here, alongside the venerable Sony WF-1000XM4 (which cost significantly more). Each earbud includes four mics: two for picking up your voice and two for processing and filtering out environmental sounds, such as wind. You can choose to listen while still picking up the sounds around you or turn on digital active noise reduction to reduce outside noises by up to 30 dB. Its vocals and (upper) mids instruments sound clearer and more natural, less metallic than on the HifiAir.

No issues with watching YouTube, but if you're some kind of audiophile / music quality connoisseur, you may be more harsh with your critiques than myself. You can always switch out of it by triple tapping the ANC mode off and using transparency mode to purposely listen in to external sounds. Below this Donner Dobuds One review, you will find comparisons of the Donner Dobuds One vs FiiTii HifiAir, Earfun Air Pro 2, and OnePlus Nord Buds.

Immediately these were rich and warm, tight, deep bottom end, lovely crisp mids, and some tasty highs. Wireless charging does not come part of the package, but quick charging does, providing 2 hours of use on a 10-minute charge. The Rock, Pop, Monitor, Classic and Rap profiles each have slight redeeming features in that some emphasise the vocals, others flatten off the entire spectrum, however, the signature EQ was actually fantastic sounding with the 12mm LCP Dynamic Driver and custom armature pumping warm, crisp sound into your ear canal.

An inner hard layer is made to be difficult to remove, while the outer soft layer cushions the ear from the earbud. Noise around you, whether it's door slams, accelerating vehicles, or even a distant ambulance siren, stay in the background while you talk, and don't overrule your voice - although they do make your voice a bit more muffled. The Donner Dobuds One are the first ever TWS IEMs under the brand, so it’s interesting to see how a new player in the market handles the competition. It doesn’t open them up super well, there is still some natural sound isolation, but wearing them in the office was actually good in that it wasn’t too sensitive because I could hear everything but it wasn’t too loud.I already own a Donner turntable that I've been super impressed with, so I expected a quality product with these earbuds. The actual contents and opinions are the sole views of the author who maintains editorial independence even when a post is sponsored. The earbuds are designed to create an immersive experience that helps you forget the world around you – but how well do they deliver on this promised sound? And then the treble, there’s almost like there’s quite a distinct separation like you step between each of the kind of key frequency points, from mids to highs.

One polarizing aspect might be the oval nozzle shape that can cause fit issues for certain individuals. Plus, they really are comfortable enough to wear for hours and stay in securely during exercise and walking around.Assign the Gaming mode to one of the double-taps and literally ALL possibilities of these earbuds are within reach. Standby battery drain is minimal too, with the carrying case holding charge despite not using for days. I generally use these headphones with the ANC feature on and it can shorten the lifespan of the battery by about an hour. In Normal mode, the focus was still on the audio, but I could pick out sounds that were closer to me.
