Raycon Open Earbuds – True Wireless Open Ear Bluetooth Headphones, Hook Design, IPX5 Water Resistant, 40 Hours of Battery Life (Black)

Honestly, these Raycon Open Earbuds are an absolute game changer. The battery life is phenomenal—I wear them all day, every day, and they’ve never once died on me. Their open-ear, hook-style fit feels so lightweight and secure that I completely forget I’m wearing them, even during marathon listening sessions. I’ve never had any ear fatigue or soreness, and the sound stays crisp and balanced whether I’m on calls, streaming music, or just moving around the house. Pairing is instant, the controls are right at my fingertips, and they stay put no matter what I’m doing. Truly the most comfortable, reliable buds I’ve ever owned.

I bought these as a back up to my current open ear buds but honestly, I have found them to be a lot better. I use these as my primary ear bud and while there was a small fit learning curve, I am overall happy with them. I feel more comfortable using these for calls than my normal ones. I also like that I do not have to install an app to use them with my gadgets.I cannot wear normal ear buds due to vertigo and year round 'seasonal' allergies. These fit well and do not seem to worsen or negatively influence my vertigo and allergy symptoms. The volume is clear and the quality is very high. Sound quality doesn't cause pain, like other ones can.Battery life is very good. These are lightweight and I really like the size of the charging case.

Love these things for every day use. Fit nice, sound great and don’t hurt my ears when they are on. Only time they get strange is if I have glasses on, they tend to falling because my ears can only hold so much at once. Another pro is the price!

I was never a fan of the head phones that went into your ear. They always would start to bother me quickly and it was a pain to wear them for any length of time. I tried the headphones that sat over your ears and they were big, bulky and not great if it was warm where you were. I saw these and was intrigued, but nervous because I wear glasses. Well I gave them a shot and am thankful that I did.First, they fit while I'm wearing my glasses. I CAN put them on without taking my glasses off, but it's easier/faster to just slip my glasses off and put them on.Secondly, you can sync them to 2 devices. I have them synced to my laptop and my phone. Now I haven't tried to use it on a call or anything. Mostly I use it with my laptop, but if I'm playing a game on my phone or watching a movie it works well. That being said I do not know or fully understand the commands. I know it's because I haven't given them a shot. I read the instructions and the online manual and as I mostly use them for my laptop I don't need the add ons, but I am sure if I learned them I would appreciate the items more.The little case it comes with is great. It can hold a charge for 40 hours and by themselves they hold up to 8. I've pushed it to the limit and it hung on. I did charge the case once since I've gotten them, but it's doing a great job. No complaints.Also, since they don't go IN my ear I can hear things happening around me. I like that. I don't want to be cut off from everything, but I want to be able to listen to music, etc without playing them aloud. It is a great balance for me.I cannot complain about the price at all. I never wore my old headphones daily, but I keep finding these on and enjoying it.The only thing that annoyed me at all was they don't give you a full manual in the box it came with. They give you the basic start up information and a link to go to if you want to read more. I am old school and wanted to read more so I did take the link and it worked and was great. Past that I'm completely pleased.

I bought these mainly so I can multitask at work. Listening to my audiobooks and podcasts without shutting out the world completely. These work perfectly for that but I tried listening to some music and was somewhat disappointed. Thankfully that was never their intended purpose with my purchase so it isn’t a dealbreaker for me but I can see it being a possible issue for others as the sound feels a bit hollow.In other pros, they are VERY comfortable for me whose ears ache with in ear earbuds but then heat up and become uncomfortable with over the ear headphones. So if you also battle with those issues, these are a good compromise. I haven’t had a good chance to test their battery life but I will update this review if that is an issue.Another minor warning, these come in a pretty hefty case so that could be a negative for some. I’ve included a photo of the case next to a smart tv remote to give an idea of size and scale.

I bought these to compare directly with another open ear device within the same price point. I will be returning one of the two after a few more tests. My initial impressions between the two:Pros: Good sound- base and mid-range are really good, but top end is a little coarse.User interface and equalizer without the need of a phone app. One less piece of junk I need to download to use something.Good build quality. The feel of the mechanism to rotate and pivot the ear piece feels premium and robust.Cons: Putting the things on my ears. Seriously, I have to physically remove my glasses and fiddle with the thing and my ear with both hands for about a minute per side to get them properly in place. And the touch features are going nuts as a result. This was BY FAR the biggest turn off for me with regard to these. Once in place, they are fine, though there's a little pressure on my ears. In contrast, the other brand/model drops right into place without any messing around. I went back and forth between the two multiple times. If the install was less of a hassle, I would probably err on the side of keeping these.Slight delay in audio/video alignment. Quick reaction stuff will be easily noticeable.I have not tested battery life.
