SoundPeats PearlClip Pro
4. Conclusion
Passing to the product use, in start we had a hard time to understand how exactly the product should get weared. After looking at the official product pictures, we finally got them in our ears and oh boy, this is very comfortable, in fact much better than any other earbuds we had used.
The weight is so low and the SoundPeats PearlClip Pro will not go away even if you seriously shake your head. Due to the product's open-style design, the sound will leak a bit, but that's the cost for comfort. Nearbuy users may listen also to your music or conversations so be warned.
The app is nicely designed and we hope that SoundPeats will further improve the app with % battery left for the earbuds and the charging case. The Sound is clear and can be seriously adjusted via the included app, while some users have connectivity issues, we didn't, we tested with the Samsung S24 Ultra with Android 14. The product doesn't support active ANC, meaning when you are listening to music you won't hear anything nearby, which may or not interest you. The product also supports game mode, for even lower lag for those long gaming sessions. The battery according to the specs for 60% Volume (BT AAC connection & all other features turned off) is around 6Hrs Playtime + 18Hrs with Charging Case, so if you raise sound levels to 80% that is a nice level, you will get around 3-4 hours of playback, which is average. A quick 10-minute charge provides 2 hours of playtime. Also, the product doesn't support Qi wireless charging, which should be a nice bonus.
Passing to the sound quality the product houses two 12mm dynamic drivers for both earbuds with a frequency response of 20Hz-20KHz, resulting in smooth mids, clear trebles, and detailed-wide soundstage. BASS is OK and gets a little boosted via the APP, however won't blow you away. If you are looking for very high sound levels, search for another product with a different ear canal design. The product supports Adaptive Left/Right Channels: Place the earbuds in the charging case without distinguishing between left and right. Close the lid for 10 seconds, and upon reopening, the earbuds automatically adjust the channels.
The SoundPeats PearlClip Pro also supports multi-point connection with up to two different BT devices. That is nice to have for users who have different devices to listen to music/take phone calls. Speaking of phone calls, we had a nice conversation, since this is a very lightweight product and the included Single-mic ENC (Environmental Noise Cancellation) for calls did its work, even higher-priced products have more mics to remove the ambient sound. The included touch controls are OK to use, even if it will take some time to get familiar with them. You can disable them with the app or change them according to your needs, nice.
Overall we feel that the SoundPeats PearlClip Pro is a fine product for user who wish to have a lightweight product in their ears, with small volume and great sound. The product is priced at the moment of this writing at $59.99, and even frequently gets a discount over Amazon at almost half price, so in our eyes, it's an instant best buy.
