Great review as always - thank you bro
Thanks mate! Appreciated 🙌
Thank you for another great review! 👍
Thanks Z 🙌
I rarely comment, but what a great review, you cleared all my doubts!
Thank you man, appreciate it! 🙌
Great work think you man
Thanks for watching! 🙌
Hello again! I just bought the Haylou S30 (Pro) and it's one if the best decisions I've made thanks to your video! The sound quality is great as compared to the headphones I've tried before in the same price range. I can't say much for the ANC tho since I think there's not much of a difference when it's switched on 😅 but it's not that a big deal for me since I'm after the sound quality.
For the headphones' build, it's sturdy but feels delicate at the same time maybe because the hinges are so smooth and flexible. Because of its flexibility, it's so easy to fit on my head and ears. Also the ear foams are SOOOOOOOO SOFT which is definitely a plus, so comfy!! I love how it fits/covers all my ears and not just hangs on it.
It's worth my money, also bought in on sale, saved me some money instead of buying the JBL one. Again, I'm glad I stumbled upon your video since the binaural tests really convinced me to buy it. It's so hard to find videos that does binaural tests haha. (I hope you can do a test on the JBL710 too since I'm really curious on how it sounds. 😆)
Thank you again, fr the Philippines!! 🫶🏼😃
Always great to see feedback like this, I'm so glad they worked out for you. I'll try and include more JBL stuff going forward, it's just finding the time! Enjoy and thanks for sharing 🙌
Thx for the review. Was curious as I saw the S35 and wondered what the S30 is about. May get these to compare to my Tozo H2. ANC mode sounds best, volume takes a slight dip in 360 mode but sounds like greater Soundstage. Also sounds better than the QCY H3 as well. Thx for sharing!!
Thank you! I agree, ANC mode is my favourite. You're spot on about 360 mode too. Thanks for watching! 🙌
I was looking for good headphones below £25, your video convinced me to get these, especially for their confort (I plan to use them for long working sessions). Thanks
Thank you! Glad you found the review useful and how you enjoy the headphones. I reviewed quite a few of the budget ones on this channel and these are probably the most comfortable after maybe the Soundpeats Space (but these are far better in every other way). Thanks again for watching and especially for commenting! 🙌
Excellent review. Thank you. Just wondering - is it worth upgrading to headphones that use the LDAC codec?
Thanks! On these budget sets, I don't really hear the difference with LDAC. If you have a big library of FLAC files and listen to them a lot at home, maybe there's some mileage in it, but for the average user even with Tidal Masters AAC is almost certainly going to be good enough
Brazilian here. Congratulations on the great review. Now, in recent promotions on Ali we have 3 models with similar prices (at least in reais): Anker Q30, QCY H3 and Haylou S30. Which is more worth it in terms of audio quality, ANC and comfort?
Thanks Danilo! Tough question - the Q30 are quite old now so I would probably cross them out. Out of the S30 Vs H3, well let's start with the comfort - I find the S30 more comfortable as the ear cups have a larger opening and the clamping force is not as strong. The fake leather on the pads also spreads more on the H3 - it's a bit firmer on the S30, which I prefer.
For ANC - check the samples out in this video. I think the QCY is better for lower frequency sounds, so if you're using them in traffic or on buses, the H3 will probably feel stronger. You've also got more customisation on the QCY, and the transparency is a lot stronger (although lots of white noise too)
For sound, check this comparison out - th-cam.com/video/S0AxrMJAT0k/w-d-xo.html - it's a longer version of the short clips I included in this video. For me, the midrange sounds a little too artificial on the QCY. I really like the sound of the Haylou out of the box.
So overall, it's very close but I prefer the Haylou ever so slightly. But I think you'd be happy with either - they're both excellent budget headphones.
Greetings from UK! 🇬🇧
Great video bro. I want to ask you, which one do you prefer about sound quality? Haylou s30 or One Odio A10? and on the other hand, Haylou s30 or 1more Sonoflow? Thanks for your answer
Thank you brother! There's not too much difference in sound quality between them, but if I had to pick one for out of the box tuning it would probably be the Sonoflow. The S30 are nice though, and much better value than the other two
Haylou S30 or Soundpeats Space? I'm from Brazil but I really like your content, congratulations on the work
Thank you! I only just got the Soundpeats Space but I'll compare them to the S30 in the next review. So far, I think the S30 are a bit better. The Space are a bit more comfortable, but the build quality isn't as good. I think the sound and ANC seem slightly better on the Haylou but I'll confirm when I finish the Space review. Thank you again for watching 🙌 🇧🇷
Please review Tecsun HP-300. I think it is good HP.
I couldn't tell from your video if the Haylou S30 or QCY H3 was the better buy? I'm in the market for a new headphones and have been looking at both.
I try to be objective, hence the sound and ANC samples. Choose the one you prefer - for me personally I like the S30 better
Great review. Calls seem very good with the microphone attached. Might just get these for my office (sales calls)
Also please
Should i go for the 1more pro q30 or the oneplus buds 3?
Sound quality i love galaxy buds pro style of tuning, anc, call quality and spatial audio please thank you
Thank you! Yeah they are pretty good for calls, I was impressed too.
I'm gonna try and get hold of a pair of OnePlus Buds 3. On paper I think they look better than the Q30 but can't say for sure till I've tried them out. Might be a few weeks though as I had to buy the Galaxy Buds FE first! Thanks again man, appreciate the support 🙌
@@ReganCipher you will enjoy the galaxy buds fe
@@saadabdullah4245 yep, so far so good! I'll try and pick up the OPB3 ASAP 👍
@ReganCipher thank you so much. Just want my next purchase which is basically for multipoint and phonecall purposes to be the correct one. The 1more pistonbuds pro q30 are very cheap right now but i dont wanna buy them just for the sake of it. If spending more on the oneplus is better by that margin than will go for them. Also checked out many other reviews on the pistonbuds q30 calls do seem very good tbh. Just wanted to ask some people reported having connectivity issues, did you happen to change the eartips on them? One person said it happened after he changed the eartips to something else I love my galaxy buds pro but sadly they arent it in terms of phone calls. I think not having the stem is a detriment in louder environments.
Thank you again for putting out the best reviews on youtube. Bought the earfun air pro 3s without looking at your review. Have decided never to do that again lol
great review, i have a question, can you use the boom mic in wired mode ?
Thanks! And great question....Haylou's marketing material suggested it could, but in wired mode all I could get working was the sound - no ANC, no app support and plugging in the boom mic suddenly made my phone think the headphones weren't even plugged in and it routed the sound through the phone speaker instead. So I think the wired mode on this one is just audio and that's it 😕
@@ReganCipher thanks for replying, that's a real shame as the provided AUX cable has a 3 ring 3.5 plug, so it should be able to work with microphones
@MarioStelar I'll try it with my pc tomorrow to confirm if it's the same 👍
@@ReganCipher did you try it with an aux to USB C adapter or your phone has a headphone jack?, if you used an adapter maybe that could be the problem
I'm looking for Bluetooth headphones with a wired mode that lets you use their microphone so I can use them for music on my phone and for gaming on my Xbox but so far the only ones I know that have this feature are the Anker Q35
pretty much all of the rest have an audio only wired mode with a 2 ring headphone jack, this Haylou model has a 3 ring jack just as the Anker Q35
@MarioStelar just tried it with a usb adapter - mic works but boom mic doesn't. Boom mic plugged in shuts off internal mic 😕
I am suspecting that all of these headsets are made by the same company.
Have you ever thought about taking them apart and seeing what they look like inside?
also i got i pair of h3 yesterday, very nice NC for the bus ride to my work, works very well with the lower freq sounds, not so well with voices.
one person sitting behind me was talking and I could hear her.
and dont know what is better adaptive nc or any of the other mods.
I am now deciding between the ht10 and ht07.
I suspect that the ht07 is better for the anc, since the ht10 is semi in ear, and what I am looking for is anc-->battery-->sound.
Do you think a pair of in ear buds can be decent for commuting?
Haha yeah they are very similar, and yes I have taken them apart before - many are using a lot of the same components. There's also a pretty good site for teardowns called Qucox, if that kind of thing interests you.
Barely any budget buds or headphones work well on medium or higher frequency sounds like voices unfortunately. For that kind of noise reduction, Bose and Sony are quite a way ahead of the competition.
I just received the HT10 and have been testing them out - the noise reduction is surprisingly good for semi in ear (better than Soundpeats Air4) but weak compared to in-ear. The HT07 ANC is stronger, and I think the battery life is better too, although the HT10 sound better.
For the multitude of different frequencies you encounter when commuting, none of the budget options will have you completely covered. I just finished my 'best under $100' comparison, and it's the same even if you spend a bit more
Hello, is this better than the JBL 710BT in terms of the sound quality? (excluding the ANC function since the JBL doesn't have one)
I hope you can help me thanks!
Sorry my friend, I have not tried the JBL 😭
@@ReganCipher aww I will be buying today so I was hoping you can help. But thank you for replying!
@@starfish541 no problem! Enjoy! 👍
should i go to haylou s30 or anker soundcore q 20/q10
I prefer S30. Soundcore sound is a bit too v-shaped for me
do you think the sound is better? S30 or S35 Thanks.
I included a sound test in this video from 13:31 onwards - better for you to listen for yourself because we all have a different idea on what sounds good. Me personally though? I prefer S30 👍
haylou s30 the best ? or edifier 820 plus??
Both are good. 820NB+ has stronger ANC but doesn't fold up. S30 is more bassy and v-shaped sounding. I reviewed both - have a listen to the ANC samples and binaural sound tests and make your mind up from there. I like both sets a lot
@@ReganCipher If I watched the entire video and repeated it, I know it is not the same as in person, but I don't know if I should trust another brand, at least one that is not on Amazon, speaking also of the quality of the product, at least the edifier gives me more security because it is already a more established and well-known brand, and if for 15 euros more I can buy the edifier because that is the difference that I get it here in Italy, would you advise me the same about the edifier over the other?
If you can get the Edifier through Amazon and you feel comfortable with that safety net, then probably better to do that. There's not a huge difference between the two, I would be perfectly fine with the Edifier 👍
My s30 always shown 100% in my iphone battery widget. Is it normal or an issue. Thank you 😢
Just sounds like an issue with the widget. I'll try and test with iPhone and see if it's the same for me
@@ReganCipher thank you so much. The same 100% with the haylou sound app, and the battery alway shown 100% on every s30 review video on youtube i realized 😂
S30 or soundcore q30 ?
I prefer S30. Maybe Q30 if you have big ears
Q20i or haylous s30 !!
Not tried the Q20i 😥
so in short s30 is best than s35?
Yep
Me and Sandarah is better partner in the future💞
