Baseus Bowie MC1 Open Ear Clip-On Earbuds, Adaptive Comfort with Anti-Drop Design, Impactful Sound with Adaptive Bass Boost, Adaptive Noise Cancelling Calls, IP57 Waterproof, 40H Playtime, Lightweight

I really prefer open-earbuds to in-earbuds, cuz after I got some foam tips for better comfort - my ears still get "swamp ear" and get irritated after long use. So I bought Bose Ultra open buds and Shokz open fit buds. Usually I say they are good for what it’s worth. In this case, for what I paid for them, they are not worth it. I finally decided to see if there was a better alternative and stumbled upon these Baseus Bowie MC1 clip earbuds, which seemed like they could be the answer. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜Pro’s: The fit is excellent, the sound is excellent, the ear clip/cuff design is different and good, the fit is pretty secure and won’t fall off, comfortable. When running I hardly noticed I had them on my ears. The sound was good when I was running. The Shokz are really good and probably rank them as one of the best hook buds in the market. For me and my ears, the Baseus is an excellent buy. These are light and fitment is excellent, the sound is superb, the call quality I give to Shokz, the update happened to both and somehow the call quality on the Baseus really improved. I still prefer the physical button over the touch sensitive approach that Shokz went with. I still like the Baseus ear clip design vs the earhook. So which do I prefer. Running and exercising-Baseus without a doubt. Bose Ultra is too expensive, can’t adjust to being closer to ear canal, left me wanting and expecting more from the ear cuff buds. They seem limited when turning them up to 7 or 8 on the flat setting. Should be priced around the Soundcore and Shokz open fit buds price, maybe even pricing them lower like $125-$150 on the high end. For $300 they should have wireless charging, multi point connectivity. Most of all a larger and louder volume level. I’m returning them. My Baseus Bowie MC1 do a better job and lasts my whole 10 hour workday without needing to be charged. These are a great option for an open-ear design at this price point, the sound is very full and balanced, impressive bass and volume without becoming distorted, I rarely feel the need to turn them up too much even when in a noisy area. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜What I liked: ❤1) Very comfortable, light weight, you will not even know that you are wearing it 🧡2) Easy to put on and remove and just one clicker on the back of the ear on each earbud to control settings like volume, play next or previous track, take a call or end it or cycle through the modes (default list of modes can be assigned to each earbud so that you can cycle through the shortcuts you use the most). 💛3) Pushing it downwards inside the ear gives a higher bass and louder sound. My ears are small so this could be different for different ear sizes. The sound quality is premium and you can move it a bit to find the right spot for best sound. 💚4) Call quality is good. I did not face any issues during the call while I was walking outside 💙6) You can hear the surroundings while outside, although some level of noise is reduced so that you enjoy the music. 💜7) Baseus app enables you to: pair the device with your phone, calibrating the earbuds so that you get good sound quality, selecting the equalizer (bass, mid-range, treble) is available. ❤8) The charging case is small and pocketable with good battery life. Up to 9-10 hours of play time and up to an extra 31 hours of battery life in the charging case.

I've been wearing a pair of Apple AirPods for years. Last year, I started hearing some ringing sound even when I'm not wearing them! That's when I decided to drop them like a bad habit and replace them with open-ear headphones. After shopping around for a bit, it was between the Baseus Bowie MC1 and the Anker Soundcore C30i. The Baseus MC1 won me over because it has button controls! Here are my first impressions: Pros 👍👍👍 - Fit and Feel: They clip on and stay on! When you finally take them, there's no pressure or discomfort! - Design: Looks are subjective but Baseus have done a good job making this pair look decent. - Quality is when a product meets or exceeds your expectations. Those did for me! - Connectivity: Solid and reliable! And unlike my expensive AirPods, the MC1 actually supports multipoint connection! - Ease of Use: When you first take them out, they are already in pairing mode. If you want to pair a second device, press the button at the bottom of the carry case. It was intuitive and uneventful, exactly how I like it! - Durability: TBD. I've only had mine for a few days. - Value: I bought mine for $50 on sale. I am really happy with what I got for my money. - Sound Quality: I listen primarily to audiobooks, some podcast and lyric-free soundtracks to clear my head. At 50% volume, my listening experience is really good. If my environment is busy or windy, I crank up the music to 75% and that drowns out the background. Everyone's ears are different but I really enjoy the open, pressure-free hearing experience. Cons 👎👎👎 - I personally don't have anything to complain about at this point. The pair lacks the heft or quality feel in the hand, but then again, I spent $50 for it, so, yeah, I got my money's worth and then some! - You could download a companion app to fine-tune your listening experience, but I don't care for that. The Bottom Line 🧐 We are constantly making trade-offs. This set of earbuds by Baseus delivers what it promises: an open, pressure-free, and hassle-free listening experience. They sound loud and clear (to me, anyways) and offer great value for their price point. I am happy with my purchase, and I have no problem recommending them to others. If anything changes, I will update my review to let you know. I hope my short review has helped make a more informed buying decision 👍😊✌️

I bought these as a second round choice to some JBL earpods I initially purchased and ended up returning immediately. The JBL earpods would not consistently stay in my ear no matter the provided ear adapter I tried. I was originally hesitant about buying these "clip-on" style ones as a replacement. But after trying them out I was extremely satisfied. They are super lightweight, comfortable, and STAY in place no matter how hard I seem to move or shake my head. I have worn them doing sweaty rough yardwork with no issues at all. Sound/volume might vary a tiny bit depending where the speaker sits in your ear once clipped on. And like all earpods, you don't get the same bass as over-ear headphones... However I think these have all around good sound and listen to rock/metal, EDM, rap, podcasts, etc on them. Charging is quick and easy. Connection/pairing seems to work extremely well and is very seamless placing in/out of the case. Range seems comparable to larger headphones. I would give them 4 1/2 stars, knocking half a star off for better bass (if possible in such a compact package).

So, I had been curious about these "clip" on the ear earbuds for a while and decided to give these a shot. I am so incredibly happy that I did. I've done a variety of open-ear headphones in the past (shokz bone conduction, open air fits, neck band speakers, etc...) but these are easily my favorites. Here's why... 1. Seemless multipoint bluetooth!!!!! I tend to use my bluetooth headphones for my phone, a desktop computer, and a laptop. I've used like 5 different bluetooth headphones in the past, and all of them have problems, especially when I start switching between more than two devices (and frankly some had trouble with JUST two at times). I had just assumed it was a limitation of bluetooth I had to live with. WRONG. These headphones switch between my three devices so effortlessly that I could cry. I don't know if this is an issue for many people, but if it is, these things are incredible for that alone. 2. Comfort Look, most open-ear headphones are pretty comfortable. But with these clip-on ones, I was concerned. Well, they are so comfortable I darn near forget I'm wearing them. So much better than I thought they would be. 3. Sound quality So, I know sound quality is typically on the low end for open-ear headphones, and I was definitely concerned with these being only $50. Well, I'm here to say that I think they sound better than just about any other open ear headphone I've used. They aren't going to compare to some expensive, high quality headphones (I'm sure audiophile will have complaints) but I've been really impressed, especially given the price point. 4. Battery Life What can I say, it's good! I use my headphones A LOT, and I've yet to have these die on me. Overall, I can't recommend these enough. For the price, I genuinely don't think you can beat these.

I use these all the time. The open ear design means I can hear my surroundings and the audio coming from the earbuds perfectly. I am an equestrian and use these with my coach so I can hear her better in crowded environments like at shows or windy days. They stay on great and never had them slip or move while I was riding or running. I recently lost the case at the airport and e-mailed the company to see if I could just buy the case since I still had the earbuds. They were kind enough to send me a new set! Not only are these earbuds fantastic quality and a great price but the customer service is top notch and quick to respond.

I believe that this is the first product review I am submitting to Amazon. I am doing so because I had a very mixed experience with this product and I want potential buyers to be aware of one issue in particular. I want to first note that I have a physical disability that results in my not being able to work the button controls on the ear buds. Prior to using these, I had been using the PowerBeats Pro ear buds with my iPhone. When using them and there is an incoming phone call, the phone does not ring. Instead, Siri informs me through the earbud that there is a call and identifies either the specific caller (if known) or the area code from which the call is coming. I can then answer the call by just saying “answer.” I do not even have to have the phone within reach. This also works through my Apple watch. A similar thing occurs with incoming text messages. With the PowerBeats, Siri advises me through the earbud there is a text message (either noting the texter, if known, or the phone number) and allows me option to have her read it to me. The Baseus earbuds do not have this function. There is no notification of calls or text messages to the earbud. Phone calls must be answered manually, and text messages read on the phone if you are aware that you have received one. You can use the earbuds to have Siri make phone calls, open apps, etc. When using to listen to music, they are excellent. I found that, when using for a phone call, it was very difficult to hear the other party unless the volume was turned up to the maximum (much higher than needed for music). On the most positive side, these earbuds were extremely comfortable. I often did not even realize I was wearing them. In addition, they allow the user to hear what is going on around them much better than the PowerBeats which are in-the-ear earbuds. This made it much easier to do other things when not on a phone call, and it certainly made my wife happier when she was trying to talk to me. If you are only using these earbuds for music, they are a great option, especially for the price (around $50 rather than around $300 for the PowerBeats.

I’ve only been using them for like 30 or so minutes. Astounding compared to other, similarly priced, buds of this type. Seriously, far and above the other dozen or two I’ve tried over the last few years. Not sure about that thin band. But the sound is ‘Chef’s Kiss’. Haven’t had a phone call yet. Maybe slightly heavy on the bass. But they’re still mwah! Perfect for music. Great for videos. Balanced and bassy.

Sadly, I do not recommend. I simply can’t use them anywhere where there’s more noise than a quiet house or deserted street. If I am walking down the street and even a single car drives by, I can no longer hear my audiobook or podcast, even with the volume all the way up. I even created my own setting in the app to make it as loud as possible, and it’s still not loud enough. Roommates chattering nearby? Nope. Shopping for groceries? Nope. What drives me insane is that I have to constantly adjust them to maintain even the poor quality of sound I already have (sound quality as in comprehensibility/clarity of my music, podcast, or audiobook). What’s worse is that as soon as I move again – swallow, speak, turn my head, even lift or lower my head – they shift and I am right back where I started. I try shifting them up and down, pushing them more firmly against my ear – both the speaker end and the bone conducting end, and widening or pinching them close just to get them to a position where I can hear all the words, and nothing works. I have to hold them against my head with one hand cupped if there’s any bit of background noise. So, I can’t do anything that requires at max two hands. Walk the dogs. Nope. Bike? Nope. Hold a grocery bag and pick up an item at the same time? Nope. Also, my glasses can get in the way. I have to sometimes tilt them higher up my ear or it also jostles the earbuds. On top of that there are random, unpleasantly high-pitched double beeps. I was timing it to see how often it happened, and they beeped three times in ten minutes. I’m sure the settings are trying to tell me something, but I’ve checked the placement of the earbuds, and nothing's touching the button at the top of each earpiece. Finally, sometimes it randomly pauses my audiobook or podcast, and though it’s not unusual with earbuds with easily accessible play/pause buttons (though still annoying), when I try to start it again it no longer is catching the audiobook – as in, the audiobook is showing as playing, but the sound is no longer coming through the earbuds, yet the earbuds are still connected to the device.

Video and sound delay even when low latency is on. Kinda annoying

Le cuffie mi piacciono, ne provo tante diverse e queste nel complesso offrono un buon livello di comfort, ma anche di stabilità e di buona qualità del suono. Il design a clip è interessante: si agganciano bene all’orecchio, non scivolano mai e non danno fastidio nemmeno con occhiali o orecchini. Unico difetto, la misura è una sola quindi se avete le orecchie grandi potrebbero dare fastidio. Il motivo è che la cartilagine dell'orecchio deve stare dentro lo spazio delle cuffie e se ne avete molta dovete comprimerla, con conseguente disagio. A me un po' lo fanno ma non in modo eccessivo, ma non ho orecchie giganti e immagino che altri possano risentirne. Il suono è chiaro, bilanciato, con bassi presenti ma non invadenti. Non isolano completamente dai rumori esterni, quindi non aspettatevi di essere immersi nella musica, ma ne guadagnate in termini di sicurezza stradale. Quando vedo certi ciclisti con cuffie over-ear che li isolano da ogni cosa mi vengo i brividi!! Con queste potete ascoltare tutto quello che vi va ma restando sempre consapevoli di ciò che vi circonda. Perfette per chi si allena in strada o in ambienti dove è importante sentire anche ciò che succede intorno. La batteria ha una durata ottimo, diverse ore (non ho fatto misurazioni precise) e la custodia è compatta e funzionale. In più, con l’app dedicata si possono regolare sia l'equalizzazione che il funzionameno dei comandi touch. Penso siano una scelta azzeccata per sportivi e persone che quando sono in giro non vogliono mai perdere il contatto con la realtà. Le cuffie immersive è meglio usarle solo in ambienti protetti.

Ich war mir anfangs nicht sicher, ob Open-Ear-Kopfhörer wirklich eine gute Wahl sind. Bisher hatte ich immer klassische In-Ear-Kopfhörer genutzt, die gut abschirmen und einen satten Bass liefern. Doch ich suchte nach einer Alternative für unterwegs – besonders beim Spazierengehen, Arbeiten oder Fahrradfahren, bei denen ich meine Umgebung noch wahrnehmen wollte. Die Baseus Bowie MC1 haben mich in dieser Hinsicht wirklich überzeugt. Das C-förmige Clip-on-Design ist nicht nur innovativ, sondern auch sehr praktisch. Die Kopfhörer sitzen sicher und verrutschen selbst dann nicht, wenn ich mich viel bewege. Anfangs fühlte sich das Tragen etwas ungewohnt an, da sie nicht direkt im Gehörgang sitzen, doch nach wenigen Minuten hatte ich mich daran gewöhnt. Was mich wirklich überrascht hat, ist der Klang. Trotz der offenen Bauweise sind die Höhen und Mitten sehr klar, und selbst die Bässe sind für diese Art von Kopfhörern wirklich gut. Natürlich darf man keinen dröhnenden Subwoofer-Bass erwarten, aber die Klangqualität ist insgesamt sehr ausgeglichen. Besonders bei Podcasts und Gesprächen ist die Verständlichkeit hervorragend. Ein weiterer großer Vorteil ist die lange Akkulaufzeit. Mit einer einzigen Ladung halten die Kopfhörer bis zu 40 Stunden, was mehr als genug für mehrere Tage Nutzung ist. Ich muss sie kaum aufladen und habe immer Musik oder Podcasts zur Hand. Auch die Geräuschunterdrückung bei Anrufen funktioniert einwandfrei – meine Gesprächspartner hören mich klar und deutlich, selbst wenn ich mich in einer belebten Umgebung befinde. Zusätzlich finde ich es super, dass die Kopfhörer IP57-zertifiziert sind, also wasser und staubdicht. Ich habe sie bereits bei leichtem Regen getragen, und sie haben ohne Probleme funktioniert. Auch beim Sport schwitze ich manchmal stark, aber das beeinträchtigt die Funktionalität überhaupt nicht. Alles in allem bin ich wirklich begeistert von diesen Kopfhörern. Sie bieten eine völlig neue Art des Hörens, bei der man nicht von der Außenwelt isoliert ist, und dennoch einen tollen Klang bekommt. Für Sport, Arbeit, Fahrradfahren oder einfach den Alltag sind sie wirklich toll !

Bon … retour sur la commande, sur la photo il était blanc, sur le mail de l’expédition la photo me met des bouchons d’oreilles ( limite en colère) et au final le produit arrive en mauve ( par rapport aux bouchons d’oreilles c’est bien mieux et le prix était nettement inférieur que sur l’autre vendeur Baseus. ) Maintenant pour 20€ ils sont bon, pour appels et lire des podcasts, musicalement, trop d’aiguë à mon goût et l’equalizer personnalisé perd énormément de décibels ( à oublier en extérieur), pour 50€ ils me semble pas valoir le coup, les TOZO open earing bien mieux mais pas multi support. J’oubliais, tenue dans le temps de 9h peut être pas mais quasiment 5h30 en appel continu avec 1 seul ,donc très correct.
