Top 5 Budget True Wireless Earbuds Under $50 (2020)

[@OfficialGamesky]

**Edit** The Soundcore Life Dot 2's use button controls and control everything...I'm happy to say

[@EPA18]

I think the Fiil T1X should still be somewhere on this list.

[@wholelottaweather24]

Jack Jack okay they can control everything but the volume !! They control everything else!!!

Agreed. It's amazing what kind of features and sound you can get without spending a small fortune

[@fahrilrizal2860]

Gamesky what happened to the ol faithful (and El Jefe’s favourite) fiil T1X? Too old to make ur list? Or u just feel the Truengine 3 just blows it away? Hehe..

[@SuperMeluco]

If you truly want true wireless ear buds under $50 go with the FILL T1X, You won't be disappointed. They have high volume output and come with a app with a plethora of built in equalizer settings so you can control your audio to suit your needs. Not to mention you able to control latency response when watching videos or playing video games. None of the ear phones mentioned above have this special alternatives. I've tried the lypertek tevis, tozo nc9,mpow m30, soundcore and none have met the criteria gamesky has mentioned, not to mention the latency response on them is awful. I'm just saying from my experience coming from an audiophile junky like myself. On another note with the FILL T1X volume at 50%-66% is equivalent to 85%-90% from the rest mentioned above, and NO LATENCY ISSUES THANKS TO THE APP!!

[@OfficialGamesky]

That's an excellent choice too. They are usually priced above $50 which is why I didn't add them here

I can vouch for the FIIL T1X and recommend them to EVERYONE!!! The best sounding earbuds I've ever owned with an app AND with decent microphone! It does not get better than this at this price point! Last month I broke my left bud of the pair, heartbroken over it still 💔

[@Berumaru]

You should also mention if some of these have audio hiss. It is a deal breaker for some users.

Got a MPOW M30 on a deep discount. These are gold!!! A little eq adjustment can make them even better.

[@JahmTrack]

I order the m30 plus, arrive in 2 weeks. What EQ you set for your earbuds? Ah! Another question, the volume is high or low?

[@zicoabhidey]

@@JahmTrack The volume is good for general listening. However for sports I found it to be 1 step short. Also I have found the sound signature a little forward in terms of treble out of the box. So I used viper4android to make the eq v-shape to begin with, then cut down some treble and push the bass a little further. Also I used viper4android to change the max gain from flat to 6db that solves my problem with sport. You need a rooted phone to use viper4android.

[@deadboy164]

Can use it for extremely sport?

[@M.G.R1an]

I always look forward to these “Top” videos Gamesky, and I’m always glad when I own a bud on the list 👍🏼

I have been watching so many of your earbud videos! As a woman with smaller ears, I really apreciated how in this video there was were some closer shots on how thick the earbuds are, very helpful!

[@edmundgil6008]

GREAT list! I purchased #1 based on your initial review.super happy I did! Soundpeats knocked it out!

[@pickyaudio]

Great video bro! The value out there is crazy! I just wanted to add, I got just over 10 hours of battery with the 3SE at 70% volume so I think the 6.5 hours advertised is at 100% volume which is pretty crazy since advertised battery life is normally at 50% volume. ✌️

[@OfficialGamesky]

Damn that's crazy battery life

[@BallIsLife077]

What is better in work out? Trueshift 2 or this 3SE? Thanks farm!

[@NoMoNeYiZaTioN]

@@BallIsLife077 Try an earbud with a fin attachment for exercise. If it's gotta be Soundpeats. Look into the Truefree 2. There's a video on youtube comparing Trushift 2 against Truengine 3 se. I don't know your ears, but neither are specially designed to stay in during exercise. The MPow M30 is also a popular choice though it reportedly has a warmer sound signature.

[@craig8195]

How are the mics on most of these? My biggest issue with lower cost ear buds is having the other person hear what I'm saying.

[@Anxiathy]

The best mic you'll find in this price range is going to be the TaoTronics Sound Liberty 79, by far. This will be at the cost of some sound quality and functionality. The best all-rounder would be the MPOW M30.

[@blamblam889]

I lost my Truengine a couple of weeks ago, great excuse to buy the Truengine 3 (which I did obviously thanks to you) They are arriving tomorrow. Cant wait to use them.

[@alexpeter2610]

Sow how did you find them to be? Are they worth it?

[@smartbizwebmedia5922]

glad you started this review series. there are so many good manufacturers that we've never heard about.

[@RedPachi]

I have the truengine 3 se. I have discovered that there is a soft "hissing" when you are about to play music. To elaborate, don't play any video or songs, go to KZbin without clicking on any video, the video will auto play without sound. That is when I will hear the hissing, as if the earbud are anticipating playing the audio. I have also noticed this when pausing a song on Spotify. Not sure if others have the same experience

[@bxwlofsoup]

Great video as always! Can you make a updated 100 dollar budget video?

[@JtotheRizzo]

I know it's hard to include all good buds in a Top 5 but the Tranya T10 should be on list for sure. Great sound and bass (just change out the tips) and very very good mic/call quality.

[@Itywt]

Thank you so much for these reviews. I purchased the soundpeats (through your link below) and not disappointed at all. Highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy. 🤙🏽

[@e.s.6617]

Guys after having multiple pair of wireless earbuds, and having the trueengine III SE for about a month now I have to speak up. They are definitely the best sounding earbuds I have, that punch well above their price range, HOWEVER, they will not stay in my ears well. I don't know if this is something I really only experience but I constantly have to fiddle with them which ruins them for me. If they shift at all in my ears, which happens very quickly, they loose that best sound quality. I wear earbuds for many hours each day at work and I am the type of guy who now knows that I like earfins to hold and secure so I can "fit and forget". So far the best overall earbuds I've tried that fit my bill at the soundpeats trueshift 2. They're excellent sound, quality, and ability to stay in your ear are the best I've experienced. Up next for me are the MPOW M30 Plus. Hopefully this has helped someone!

[@llawliet1989]

So glad we are on the same page, I like Soundpeats as they are giving the larger companies a run for what they are charging. I am looking forward to Soundpeats releasing Soundpeats H1

Thanks Keith, I do have both the Fill and the soundpeats 2 and 3. Soundpeats sound way better, I love the dual drivers. My only issue with all 3 is the ip rating, I jog in the rain and all of them shut down when it starts pouring out, ugh 😑. I'd get the 1more, but they have no ip rating. Great reviews as usual 👌, keep up the great work .

Like sennheiser. Lol... I can't believe how they charged 300 on their 1st sennmentum with all it's fault. Now the 2nd version is still at 300 and it's lacking certain features the under 50 offers. Like single bud use.

[@jsh12jho51]

First of all Thank you for your reviews on budget ear buds I can confirm After watching this video and your review of the Tribit Flybuds 3 vs the Mpow plus. I finally purchased the Mpow plus Because of the price £35 , playback features , volume control. Highest IPX , battery / bank charging abilities, plus 2years warranty and cost me only £4.99 for a two years accidental insurance from Amazon insurance A total piece of mind for under £40. Bargain Again. Thanks for your reviews JH

[@PixMonkey42]

Maybe a dumb question but do these all support full stereo? I know the M30’s refer to a “Twin mode” which sounds suspiciously like mono from each bud, so NOT real stereo.

[@gabek1444]

Are the sabbat e1 ultra still hood compared to these? Also can you do a updated top 5 under 100?

Hey Gamesky. I have seen many of your videos and I really appreciate what you do. I wonder if you could maybe make some recommendations for people with smaller ears. I've been through 5 pairs without finding a good fit. Even the Jabra 75t which were marketed as smaller earbuds were painful to wear for more than 30 min. I'm thinking of getting the bomakers since theyvlook so small but any other recommendation is welcome. Main purpose would be for exercising though I would still love great quality sound.

[@PDM-95]

i've never bought any big ticket or cheaper electronics on amazon. i've always went through best buy in order to have a replacement warranty. with these being on the low end, and probably not lasting very long, does the $2.99 replacement warranty actually work if there are issues? i believe asurian is the company used. just thought you might know since i assume you get most of your stuff from amazon. would you avoid the best buy warranty altogether? just picked up the sony xm4 the other day, and have the ability to add the replacement warranty. but adding an additional $89 before tax is not too appealing. thanks!!!
