INTRODUCTION
If you enjoy listening to music while on the road or even while working out by using your smartphone chances are you've seen numerous "true" wireless earbuds recently some released by well-established manufacturers like Jabra and Onkyo and far more by many rather unknown ones. Now if you've been following our reviews then you should know that although we feel that wired headphones/earphones can't be surpassed by wireless models (at least not in terms of audio clarity/accuracy) at the same time we are well aware that the lack of cables is too important for some people and so we're always doing our best to test as many of these wireless earbuds as we can. The xS2 Wireless Earbuds by xFyro is among the latest models to hit the market and we just finished our 3 week testing.
Our founders came together to serve a common need for all music lovers: offering a top quality audio product at reasonable prices - no gimmicks, no huge marketing budget, just great technology and sound. Our team of engineers and musicians serves one mission: combining cutting-edge audio technology with style and quality. We have offices in New York, Los Angeles and Hong Kong and our team is made up of engineers, designers, and musicians spread across North America and Asia!
For the xS2 wireless earbuds xFyro has followed a slightly different path than what we've seen recently with similar models so instead of pairing them with a flip on carrying case for both protection and extra battery life these come with a cigar like aluminum charging case. Now this case may not provide the level of protection we've seen with other wireless earbuds but thanks to a full sized USB port it can also be used to recharge your smartphone (although with a capacity of just 850mAh it should only be used for emergencies). As for the wireless earbuds themselves we don't really know much other than that they feature Bluetooth v4.2 + EDR connectivity (HFP V1.6, HSP V1.2, A2DP V1.3, AVRCP V1.6, DI V1.3), have 45mAh lithium-ion batteries that give them up to 5 hours of playback time and that they are also IP67 certified (dust and water proof up to 1 meter) thus ideal for use while working out and even while at the beach (it's summer after all). The xS2 also feature built-in microphones with CVC 6.0 noise cancellation (improves call quality for the person on the other end).
