![]() On the bright side, the soundstage is noticeably broader when using Bass Booster, and the highs are tempered better too. The vocals still manage to hold their own but don't sound as sharp as in the Soundcore Signature mode. While the bass thump is significantly more prominent in this mode, it goes a little overboard and impacts the mids, leading to a noticeable auditory masking in the lower end of the mid-range spectrum. However, those who prefer a more pronounced reproduction of low end frequencies may find it inadequate and should switch to Bass Booster. While the bass isn't given preferential treatment, it is tight and punchy. The highs are sharp but the S sounds feel a little sibilant in tracks with low bass. The mids are reproduced very well with good vocal clarity and instrument separation. When using the Soundcore Signature profile, the output is nice and detailed for the segment with a good balance between the three frequency ranges. The Podcast equalizer isn't suited for music playback but is actually more than handy when listening to podcasts or other content where vocal clarity is more important than anything else. The Podcast mode has a more mids-forward response. Bass Booster mode predictably enhances the bass and provides a V-shaped sound output. Soundcore Signature mode offers a more balanced sound with relatively low but sufficient bass, and the mids and highs have a good presence. The wireless range is standard with the buds maintaining a stable connection up to 10 meters with a clear line of sight and half of that with a concrete wall in between them and the source device.Ĥ/7 Good detail in audio multiple sound profiles are actually usefulĪ quick word on the sound profiles. The Life Note E buds have IPX5-rated splash resistance, so they can easily survive a bit of sweat or a walk in a drizzle, but avoid dropping them in a puddle or washing them under a tap. These earbuds are fitted with a 10mm dynamic driver each and are compliant with the latest Bluetooth 5.2 standard with support for AAC and SBC codecs. While the first two are quite handy when listening to music, the third, as the name suggests, is better suited for Podcasts or vocal-centric content. You get the Soundcore Signature mode, Bass Booster and Podcast. The Soundcore Life Note E comes equipped with three sound profiles, or think of them as equalizer presets. There is no touch gesture to adjust the volume though. Triple tap on the left bud brings up the voice assistant on the phone, while doing the same on the right bud lets you cycle through the sound profiles. Touch and hold for two seconds on left or right buds lets you jump to the previous or next track respectively or end/reject calls. Double tap on either buds is used to play/pause the audio or answer calls. You have to make do with the predefined gestures, which is not a bad thing in this case as they are well thought out.įor starters, no function has been assigned to a single tap, thus ruling out accidental inputs when trying to adjust the buds. Unfortunately, Life Note E doesn't work with the Soundcore app, one of the best companion apps for earphones. The area at the top of stems is touch enabled and the touch sensitivity is spot on even during a triple tap gesture.ģ/7 Some unique features along with smart touch controlsĪs I just mentioned, the earbuds are touch enabled, but the touch controls aren't programmable. I am glad to see the company switch to touch controls from the physical button present on its predecessor, Soundcore Life Note. Always a good idea to try them out and see what works for you for best results. If that's not the case with you, the company has been generous enough to bundle four more pairs of ear-tips ranging from XS to XL. The pre-installed medium-sized silicone tips offered good passive noise isolation for me. Thanks to the angle, the buds fit snugly in the ears and stay in place even during jogs, and seldom did I have to adjust them. The earbuds have angled tips that go into the ear canals and short stems that stay out but don't stick out of the ear much. The buds weigh just 4.6g each and you barely feel their presence in the ear. The case is lightweight and weighs close to 30g. At the back is a USB-C port for charging. The case has three LEDs at the front that gives you a rough estimate about the amount of charge left in the case. The build quality and finish of the product are pretty good with the case draped in a matte black finish, while the buds sport a combination of matte and gloss. The Soundcore Life Note E buds as well as the charging case are quite compact. 2/7 Polished looks, lightweight and comfortable in the ears
