Hi folks!
I have never actually heard of Tribit. The company is not as well known as let's say Sony. Nevertheless, encouraged by a quality of its headset, I decided to get another device from this company.
My current experience with Bluetooth speakers was not the greatest. I had a cheap speaker that was quiet and distorted the sound significantly. My goal was buying something cheap and relatively good, so I turned my eyes into Tribit XSound Go speaker, which costs less than $40.
Regarding sound quality, Go is an excellent choice. The sound quality is crystal clear, it has nice bass and is really loud. I tried the speaker both inside and outside the house, and the result was satisfying. The Bluetooth signal was strong enough to sustain a connection in a 15 meters range outside and ~10 meters inside the house. I wasn't expecting anything more from a speaker in this price range.
According to Tribit, the XSound Go speaker can play the music constantly for up to 24 hours. I must admit that I wasn't using the speaker for such a long period. In my case, the speaker had no problems to get me through the day of usage (~8 hours). According to other reviews that I could find online, the speaker lasts for about 11 hours, which might be true. It's a decent result for a device that is so small. As a cherry on top, we can take the fact that the speaker is IPX7 rated. This means that you can listen to music underwater for half an hour
The last thing I would like to mention is a design. Unlike the other speakers I owned, the XSound Go doesn't look like a plastic toy. It has a decent design with five function buttons on top. Additionally, on the back of the device, you will find a micro USB port for charging and AUX port if you would like to connect a device via a cable. The device comes with a USB cable for charging.
I'm giving it 4.5/5, as the only downside is a long charging time. If you are looking for a cheap and quality speaker, you should consider giving it a try! More on Amazon.

Now, before anyone says that a Bluetooth speakers don't belong on this forum, I have been using mine with my One Plus using the AudioFx app, and it has been really impressive..
So, recently I purchased a little Bluetooth speaker for general portability. I purchased a Ks Bluno speaker from amazon for around £20 at Christmas, and I am still using it now. I have found the battery life to be incredible, this speaker will last for around a week of reasonably constant use, and provides excellent sound quality doubled up with the AudioFx app. The Is Bluno comes with a little energy saving LED that flashes different colors to indicate when it is paired with a device, or when the charge is low. This speaker also comes with a small charger with a 3.5mm audio jack integrated so that you can use it in close proximity when it is very low on charge. Also, the range is pretty decent, I can use it from about 20m away before it starts distorting the sound, but for how I use it, I don't really need to be any further range..
Overview:
Overall, I think that for the money, this speaker is very respectable for every day use, and for the money, is very impressive. If any of you guys currently own one, or have had one in the past, I'd be really interested to know how you found it, and how it stacks up to other devices of a similar price range.

I also think that bluetooth speakers are good! I use a bluetooth speaker with my OnePlus One as well (just some cheap £10 thing from lidl) and it is decent. Not the best but not terrible but hey! It works! The range is decent and it is a very convenient thing for me to carry around in my bag on vacations. However as well as having a bluetooth speaker i also carry around my headphones anyway but its still nice to have this little speaker.
Sentey has outdone themselves. This is an amazing product for a decent price!
In the box, you get the headphones themselves, the really nice travel case, an auxiliary cable, a USB to aux charging cable, and an instruction manual.
First Impressions: These are pretty nice! The unit which I received does have some scratches upon arrival, which is unfortunate. I have uploaded a picture of the product with the scratches with my review. However, I quickly turn this on by holding down the power button, connect to it on my phone with Bluetooth (it shows up as B-Trek H9), and put them on. They feel VERY nice and comfortable. Music sounds pretty good too. The carrying case, at my first glance, looks very nice. Let’s see how these are after using these for some time.
After using this for a while, I can say that these are really nice headphones! I would like to mention that once you cross a certain limit in volume, people around you will be able to hear your music. So if you are on a plane ride and using these, I recommend to keep the volume low. The headphones do a decent job with blocking out sound. They also have nice bass, but you obviously cannot compare these to Beats headphones. However, in the price range that these headphones are in, the sound quality is superb! I have had a blast wearing and listening to music with these headphones. They feel very comfortable, and not at all irritating. I must note that they do jut out a good amount on either side of your head, but that isn’t something you can exactly control. These headphones fit my head nice and snug (after I adjusted them). The carrying case is really nice and durable. If I were to drop the case, I have a really good feeling that my headphones and contents would be completely fine. They do a great job at carrying the headphones and its accessories around safely and easily. I would like to mention that making calls with these headphones is also great! The quality of the call was great on both ends and both people could hear each other perfectly. When talking with the headphones, background noise can be heard. I do not recommend using these to talk to someone while in a public area around other people or around the TV. While using the headphones, I noticed that the buttons labeled “skip forward” and “skip backward” do the opposite of what they are labeled as. Trying to skip forward will take me backward, and trying to skip backward will take me forward. This was a small annoyance, but nothing I couldn’t get used to. Another weird thing was one of the voice outputs the headphones would say after disconnecting. It would say, “Your device is disconnect.” It should be saying disconnected, but that is another small issue. Because the amazing performance and quality outshines these small annoyances, I could not let it affect my rating for this product. It is simply remarkable. When you plug in the USB to aux cable to charge your headphones, the middle button will light up red. It will become green when it is fully charged. One big complaint that I have is the method with which it is charged. It is charged with a USB to aux cable. This is the first time I have seen a cable like this, and I think it would be easier for everyone if the product could be charged with a micro-USB cable.
Overall, this is a nice product that I would recommend to someone who wants a nice set of headphones for a price that isn’t too expensive.
I was provided a unit for testing purposes and I promised to provide a completely honest and fair review.
Unfortunately, I cannot post the link to this product on Amazon because posting commercial links is forbidden, but you can find it on Amazon by searching for the product's name that is in the title of this thread. Thanks!
IMPORTANT: Avoid buying these headphones!
They are terrible headphones with thousands of failures.
To begin with, the bluetooth link is very bad. It takes a long time to connect and many times it fails. And do not even think about wearing the headphones when you make the connection, because at the moment it connects you will hear the phrase "YOUR DEVICE IS CONNECTED" in a very loud volume that destroys your ear. So also when you turn it on and turn it off, the same thing happens.
Another point that seems totally disastrous is the fact that anyone can connect to your headphones, so you can be in a library, on a subway or in any public place, and people can detect your bluetooth connection and connect to it, even though you already have it connected to a device (to your notebook or your cell phone). And the worst part is that when you connect to another device, it repeats the phrase "YOUR DEVICE IS CONNECTED" with an atrocious volume.
So also when the battery is low you start to hear an extremely unpleasant sound at a very high volume, something like a horns.
I set the volume to the minimum, nevertheless it makes heads explode, I do not even want to imagine what it would be like at a medium or high volume level.
The sound is good but not so much. However, when you are not listening to any sound or music you hear a very unpleasant cutting sound to supposedly save battery. I sincerely consider it lousy, because I usually use them to watch videos or similar, and every time I change the video that terrible cutting sound is heard.
They are the worst headphones I have bought. I do not understand how people can make such bad headphones, I feel really cheated!
I can not reach words to criticize this **** of headphones, if they could be called headphones. I feel very disappointed and my score is 0/10. I will not even give it a point, because the mistakes they have committed are unforgivable.
In Short
As soon as I opened this speaker I was really surprised by the quality and the look of this device. Its really simple to use and has a great sound quality given its size. The grip on the bottom means that it sits solid on any surface. The Aux in gives added versatility to the speaker if you are wanting to use it for non-bluetooth enabled devices. Overall I really love this device and its taken over as my new favorite bluetooth speaker, its a really good looking device, living room worthy.
Detailed Review
Before even picking up the speaker it looks like a quality piece of equipment, the design is very swish, it's the type of thing you’d be happy to leave out on display in your living room. The design has is all matt black with a chrome edge around the top. There is a mesh wrapped around most of the main body that meets at the back. Up on top is a rubber button for play, and volume up and down. There is also a multi colour LED and a microphone hole. Round the back is a flick on/off switch, a power input and an Aux in. The Aux in is an incredibly handy feature and something I’ve not seen on many bluetooth speakers, but it is a welcome one! Melding older tech with new, the ability plug in items which aren't bluetooth enabled into your new shiny speaker is certainly a welcome change. Another plus round the back is the flick on/off switch, it feels nice to be able to have that level of control rather than a button where you cant tell if its on or off. I really like having the switch. Overall the design feels very well thought out.
Also included in the box is a very nice feeling bag for the speaker, along with Aux cable and a charger cable and an instruction manual. Again inclusion of all the cables and the bag feels like a welcome addition and something some manufacturers sometimes skimp on and leave out, so its nice to see that EasyAcc have chosen to include these. The specifications listed in the manual have a charging time of 3-4 hours, playback of 15-20 hours, talktime 8-10 hours, and standby of up to 300 hours. This is all made possible thanks to the included 2200mah lithium ion battery which is built into the speaker. The listed power output for the speaker is 4W.
The setup process is nice and easy, same as any bluetooth accessory, the LED flashes to confirm a successful pairing. Routinely when turning on the device it makes a sound to let you know its on then another beep to let you know it has re-connected with you phone or bluetooth device. Unfortunately if you want to use the speaker paired with more than one device you have to delete the first pairing as it will always try to reconnect to the last device which is a bit of a shame, it would have been nice to be able to pair with more than one device.
The sound quality out of the speaker is great, ive listened to several songs on this with varying levels of bass. The speaker only struggles when I crank up my phone and speaker volume to max with the odd crackle on heavy bass sections, but overall theres a nice sound quality good enough to keep me happy. The wrapped around speaker grill gives the impression of potentially more than one speaker but the sound is directed out of the front only, so dont assume more than one speaker is hidden in there.
Using the speaker as a speakerphone has worked well. People can hear me fine in my office no problem and there is no feedback or issues when using this in a call.
Overall im really enjoying using this device, I’m finding myself reaching for it a lot for listening to music or for speakphone calls, and im preferring it. I think this is a very well made, quality feeling device.

This speaker has got to be the absolute best-sounding bluetooth speaker that I've had the pleasure of using.
It's exceptionally well made, nice and heavy, and doesn't look like a toy sitting on your desk.
It fills the room with sound and has a fantastic range of highs and lows I've tried louder speakers, but they didn't have the range, and quite frankly they just felt .... cheap.... NOT THIS ONE! You've got to consider the price and size of the speakers - speakers this small have limitations. This one has 3 built-in speakers which really rounds out the sound. My selections ranged from 1980's alternative to modern rock, top 40 and even some rap - all sounded really good on it! Something I could recommend this speaker for is to give you better sound off of your laptop (unless you have a super-high-end gaming laptop that has a subwoofer and some really kick-butt speakers in it) - just because you have an inexpensive laptop doesn't mean that the sound needs to be shallow and tinny - by connecting to this speaker , you really get some rich sound.
Over the past 2 days I've used it to play music at both work and home and it's lasted a good 8 hours on full volume with each charge.
It is capable of also being used on a wired connection - I've got a few "toys" that I could use that functionality with, but for the initial workout I am sticking with just wireless.
If you're looking for an moderately-priced speaker that doesn't leave you embarrassed to play loudly, this one is definitely worth your time and you won't be disappointed!

Hello!
I'm a big fan of wired headphones. Nevertheless, I have decided to explore what the 21st century has to offer finally and bought myself a new pair of shiny Bluetooth headset from EarFun, which is a producer of my new Bluetooth speaker Go.
Free or TW100, the new product from EarFun, is a decent alternative to the more powerful (and of course pricey) product from Apple. While the Cupertino's pride sells its product for a whopping $160 (it's Apple, duh!), EarFun is a more pocket-friendly, as their headset costs just $50.
Without further ado, you can see the photos in the attachments.
And here are the functions:
Free uses almost the newest Bluetooth 5.0 to communicate with your smart device. The quality of the connection is satisfying. I have experienced some hiccup during my walk to work, but skips were very rare and short. According to the producer, the headphones work up to 15 meters from the source of the sound. This is a great result. I haven't tested it, because my flat is too small If I had to be picky, I would say that these headphones might have been a little louder, but the good sound isolation makes the music really easy to listen without a hearing loss.
The headset comes with a fancy case, which is also a charger. According to EarFun, one charge can give you up to 6 hours of constant usage and extra 24 hours stored in the case's battery. Headphones charge relatively quickly, and the case can be recharged with a USB-C cable or a Qi pad (I don't have one to test it). The device is also waterproof.
In overall, EarFun TW100 is a decent device and I can easily recommend it. 8,5/10. You can get it on Amazon.
They look like the Creative Outlier Air.
