I'm curious to see if anyone actually plays Raid and also genuinely enjoys it. At this point, their ads are so blatantly forced and synthetic. Every time someone isn't sponsored by them, they use Raid as the catch-all joke of the whole industry of free to play games. If you mention Raid in conversation with a youtube viewer you see them undergo a lot of emotions about the brand as the copypaste scripts they've heard for years now play back in their heads. And those emotions don't include "happy" or "excited". How is it possible that a company that I have not seen anyone enjoy without a script and ad money... Still makes money? Who is paying Raid? Who finances all these sponsorships? For all I know, it's just a money-laundring scheme that went out of control. Or is the Lovecraftian horror true? Is it true that millions of players are feeding these elder gods? Is this the work of the mad dreaming deity of unspeakable forms? I also recommend watching Fact Fiends video where he details what a sponsorshipfrom Raid and companies like them actually entails.
@@user98xp downloaded it even before all the sponsorships on youtube. Found it randomly searching for new mobile games to play during my free time away from home. Tried it for 3-5 hours (on/off) and honestly, there's a lot better games in the genre. Summoners war is one example. If you aren't really a fan of the genre, there's no way you'll like raid, like at all. If you are, then give it a try, but imho there's a ton of better alternatives. And that's putting the annoying marketing aside. Take that into consideration and your opinion of the game will just plummet further.
My experience with Raycons: I was in the market for some wireless earbuds and I kept seeing TH-camr promote these so I decided to buy some for myself. With all these youtubers saying how great and amazing they are and quality they are I splurged for the E55s. For a month they worked pretty well but after words they started getting bad, the right earbud mainly. The right bud would get super quiet, could barley hear anything even when on max volume. It also wouldn't properly charge in the case, I had to very carefully position it just right and if I moved it even slightly the earbud would no longer charger, so I couldn't just put them in the charging case and go about my day, charging them was a hassle. Overall awful experience with mine, dont think I'll be buying any sort of Raycons product ever.
The problem with their “half the cost of expensive earbuds” is a company called Anker exists, and they truly are the value with quality kings in accessory technology.
I have the Soundcore bluetooth headphones, the ones with a cable joining the ears together. They were £29 and they're excellent and have lasted better than the Jaybirds they replaced which fell apart twice and were replaced twice. Anker is great.
I see a pattern: every sponsored product featured in any TH-camr's video is painfully overpriced. They even avoid to mention or show the price of the product being promoted.

Well, except that in my case the Raycons I bought didn't even work so I got a full refund. You don't get your time back that you waste on that dog shit mobile game.
Sukeban Haven the Raycon have a nice sound so they don’t necessarily sound like trash. Don’t ever get bargain headphones unless you don’t care about sound.
Today I was offered 50k by a girl on the Internet today to advertise some random internet game. But I said no, because I’m a person of strong morals, almost as strong as Galek, a playable hero in Raid: Shadow Legends.
@Papa Beja something to look out for is a lot of youtubers and even VPN websites themselves say they can protect you from hackers when they might not be able to- there's some pretty good videos on here that explain how a VPN works. It can hide your location from websites- but a hacker or a website can still potentially get your location from addresses entered into accounts/mailing used to buy things ect. and it might not hide a lot from your internet provider as well for that same reason- so if you plan on using it as a "internet safety feature" and not just something to watch a video or use a website you normally couldn't use- i'd be careful
@@adijones3940 True, I have the E25 version since November and they've been great, very nice to play video games as well, but you know ..to each their own *shrugs*
@Andrew Rubalcaba the best thing about rtings is they actually test the frequency response curve. It's a better way to visualise how they sound than just saying "they're bass heavy"
@Andrew Rubalcaba they have reviewed roughly 85 different wireless earbuds and the Raycon E55 were around 75th and the E50s were around 71st the E100 however were 48th So none of them were good enough to have raving reviews over. It's like seeing someone rave about a hersheys chocolate bar.
It DOES feel like a luxury item. They fit perfectly in my ear and felt great. Well, felt great until I wore them for too long, but that happens with every wireless ear bud.
Those $30 earbuds he showed are the exact ones I use. They sound great, have 20 hours battery time including case, and the best part is they have an EQ function built in
Hearing that I feel a tad ripped off with the Tozo T10s I got off Amazon. They sound great but they cost 10 more and have less battery life than the ones you grabbed.
Honestly JLab is probably the best headphones you could possibly get from most places. They're cheap, amazing quality, durable, fantastic battery, and you can adjust the bass.
“Is raycon legit” when they first started spamming ads, the vast majority of their amazon reviews were how they were mostly scammy, and they currently have an F in the BBB lmao
Those BBB ratings at a joke 99% of the time anyway. Nobody good the 4 the BBB about a business unless it's a complaint. Plus their not even an agency of anything, they're a membership for companies to join
@inyrui That's the point, you see both potential issues with their product/company/customer service as well as how they resolve customer issues. You can 100% tell when a company doesn't give a shit from their BBB responses

Thing is, even though you might like them, you could have got some longer lasting, more comfortable and better sounding earphones for less. Or paid a little more for genuinely amazing earphones. You got ripped off along with everyone else who buys Raycons
That microphone audio sounds like it was recorded on an ancient camcorder, played through a phone with bad reception, and then re-recorded on the other side through a blanket.

@@RealLaone Yeah, they're called Ray-con bc of Ray J. He's basically shifted from music to products. He's also sold an ebike. Small business investments are how he stays rich.
I was actually thinking about buying Raycons, but was sus because they were a TH-cam sponsor. Glad I saw this video. I also like how you gave an honest, unbiased review instead of just tearing into the company.
I have Raycons, didn’t find out about them through TH-cam - I’ve had em 6 months and honestly I love them, they sound better than what he makes em out to be
I have the cheaper ones. It’s pretty good for only $70. The battery is good and I rarely run out before I get up to do something else and put them back in the case. The sound quality is better than I’m used to and really good for when I’m stressed out and need to block out the world. The Bluetooth connection is great. The shape of them works really well for me. I wanted something cheap, from a well established company, and that wasn’t Samsung(cause I have an apple phone and figured the connection would be iffy) Yeah, anyway, a not tech person’s review.
I think this review a little unfair. Aside from the two issues that he mentions that i have experienced, the poor mic quality and the earpiece not always shutting down when put inside the case, i have enjoyed the sound quality ans battery life of my earbuds. I find that the bass prevalence makes a more rounded and fuller sound as opposed to the more tinny sound of other earbuds. All in all i have been satisfied with my purchase and by daughter and neighbor have picked up their own pair to support my fav utuber and get a good price. I feel it was $45 well spent.
What a refreshing vid to see in the midst of all the spam; I would love to see an entire series of “TH-camr sponsored” products like you suggested at the end!
@@dylan-nguyen They don't care about the product or quality of the product, anything a youtuber says during a sponsor segment is spoonfed to them by the sponsors themselves. As soon as they start talking about whatever sponsored product it is just imagine them being a spokesperson for that company because for that time they are in essence an employee of said company. The worst part about it all and honestly the part where I'm curious as to the legality of things is when they claim to have used said product beforehand or have personal experience etc. When pretty much every youtuber sponsored has the same "personal story" I find it really hard to believe that there's any truth to it. In that case isn't it false marketing?
When a heavily sponsored product is advertised and has the same script on every video of different youtubers you have seen, chances are it is not as good as advertised. Just like Raid: Shadow Garbage.
idk i tried raid shadow legends and thought it was pretty ok. i got like 2-3 hours of enjoyment and probably could've gotten more. also it does actually have, in my opinion, pretty good graphics for a phone game
My thoughts as well... I have the Jlab ones they showed as an example, and the microphone and speakers are both better quality than the Raycon he demonstrates...
Josh Kittell I had wireless beats and it was the worst headphone i ever had. However a wired headphone i got from the 99 cents store was so much better
What other "TH-cam Sponsored" products do you want to see? What seems to be on EVERY video? Leave a reply & I'll empty my wallet so you don't have to. UPDATE: Some of you may be searching for the follow-up video to this video. After speaking with the Raycon team, I have come to the conclusion that some statements I made in that video were false and so that video was removed. Hope you guys understand I'm not here to spread misinformation and so it definitely had to be removed.

Please do this on the cove speaker everyone sells. It’s literally a re branded cheap amazon speaker for 4 times the price. Absolute rip Off and these youtubers try to sell them like crazy.
Bruh finally someone calls it out. So you know that they are owned by Ray J(Brandy's (the R&B singer) brother also the Original Costar in the Kardashian Sex Tape) If you go back and search for "The breakfast club" episode with him on it last year you'll see when he announces them. Its pretty much the same game that Soulja Boy was doing. They buy up a cheap ass Chinese product then slap some branding on it. Then market it to easily impressionable youtube or pop culture fans.
I got the E25s when they were $68, which I thought is what they were about: entry level wireless earbuds. Sound was entry level, mic was entry level, so exactly what I expected. But they stayed in my ear during workouts, so that was great. The fact that the E55s are double the price but seemingly the same entry quality as the others is surprising. As someone who uses the E25s I would say don't pay more than $70 for them. What Raycon did here by gaining traction by selling them at the entry level but then doubling the price once they had popularity and not improving the quality is shady and disingenuous. Also, the original case is way better looking than this cheap looking one.
The e25 are still at $80 and at a 15% discount there at $68, so I’d recommend the e25 just because there cheaper and basically offer the same thing. I just bought them and I’ll see for myself if there good.
I think you're just paying more for the E55 case itself rather than doubling the price for the earbuds alone since the E55 is bigger and can wirelessly charge and the E25 is smaller and can't. I have the E25s in black and they're holding up pretty well since I got them about a month ago (even dropped one is sour cream during taco night before figuring out the right size nub to use). Gotta say, I kinda forget I have them in now unless I wander away from my phone or go to mess with my hair. I like how I can wear them at work and no one is the wiser.
For a proper entry level bluetooth earbuds, go for redmi airdots, 1/3 the price of these and basically a normal wired headphone quality but in bluetooth
Lmao or don't get scammed into buying a brand name. I got some rpetty good dual driver wireless earbuds with bt5.0 for $35 on Amazon. They do have the cord though between them to extend battery life, but I wanted them like that so I could wear them on my jetski. They're ipx7 too so better than e25s. Also got about 20h of battery life on my first charge. search "linklike ipx7" on Amazon it's the first result
@@SamCyanide I wouldn't call Raycon a recognizable brand name; that's not why people buy them. It's not like Beats or something. As for truly wireless, I'd say that's a matter of preference. Personally, I wanted truly wireless earbuds (I've had Jaybirds and I have some OnePlus bullets) specifically because I don't like the wire, but you pay extra for it. And the battery life - coupled with the case that recharges the earbuds - has been great, for my uses, anyway. The wire is something you wanted for your case, so it works for you, but that's what keeps the price down, I believe.
That's cause everyone knows advertisements are objectively biased. You have to remember that every TH-camr sponsored are almost always set on a tight script in regards to how they advertise the product.There isn't a company in the world that would shit on their own product, so when you start hearing a sponsorship from a video, you would simply click away. On the other hand, videos like these are more factual and objective in regards to the product. So most people, just to see how true the advertisements really are or sometimes to try and make a better decision, would watch these reviews.
I saw a youtuber i usually watched promote these, but only focused on the durability of the case- while making it out that the earbuds themselves can also withstand anything. Without showing even a smidgen of the earbuds- didnt even show them still in the case before durability tests. I knew right away he was tactifully hiding the earbuds because most likely they were horrid.
So that's why they sponsored the hip-hop artists you mentioned and most ASMRtists I know. Because both of those need to have extreme bass to be a great experience
This is sad. TH-camrs that say like "I really don't say they are great because they sponsor me, they just sound great and I use them every day" pay with their credibility at this point.
Most people don't care about high fidelity or really would notice it unless the difference is absolutely massive. They may well not even know they aren't great. And as the video says they are well suited to you if you are a fan of heavy bass.
ProtoMario I understand why you may refuse manscaping, Raid, and raycons as sponsors but out of curiosity why refuse vpns? A lot of the vpns TH-camrs sponsor are actually decent from what I’ve found imo.
The thing with ear buds and headphones is that we've pretty much perfected the technology as it is and its really cheap yet we keep being sold really expensive ones
I have a rule of thumb: The more something is advertised by TH-camrs, the less I'm interested in your game / product / service. And sorry, bass heavy earbuds with a terrible mic is proof for why I do that.
Yup. I will never buy anything advertised by a youtuber because I simply don't trust that they have actually used and liked the product. Tbh, sponsor plugs just become white noise for me and I almost subconciously start taping the phone screen a few times to move pass it.
You took the words from me. We can't talk that this is a rebranded product because 99.9% of people don't know or won't even research the model of a product. Even less see if it is rebranded.
I’ve noticed that the times when the pairing doesn’t break off, it ended up being due to the case running out of power. I also paid.. $55 for them. What happened to the price?! lol
you're probably thinking of the e25, they have two models. one cheaper, one more expensive. This is the more expensive version which makes me think the cheaper ones are even worse
This video was just in my recommended. And I swear to God, I have those exact same earbuds with the same case without the Raycon branding. They're from China and I paid 11€ for them.. Yeah. They're not terrible, they do what they're supposed to, but it's so funny that it's just a very very cheap rebranded product.
I have the e25 and I'm very disappointed. I'm currently in the process of returning mine for an exchange and if it's more of the same I will just not use them anymore. The sound is just ok. My regular skullcandy earphones sound far better imo and I only paid like 10 bucks for those. 😂🤦🏿♂️
@@WaywardVector One of my friends actually did drop his case (different brand) ay a gas station and it was promptly run over by a Civic. So it does happen. But more importantly, if it survives that, then you know it ought to do well if dropped on the sidewalk or sat on in a back pocket or something. Some devices can really be like eggshells, so durability matters.
Au they’re actually cousins. There’s another video reviewing them, and 4 out of 6 of the main celebrity endorser Raycon has are Ray J himself, and 3 family members (his cousin, his wife, and his sister)
I'm not buying sponsored products before I've seen someone who wasn't paid to tell me the product's good tell me it's actually good. Definitely a needed series. I wonder how far he would be willing to go from the category tech to something like Raid Shadow Legends or Gfuel.
@Diego Jerez I've tried gfuel. It's fine for what it is, I think it's pretty similar to other drinks that I've tried. Flavor I tried (green apple) was so-so. As for if it's good for you... it's an energy drink, basically NO energy drinks are good for you. But idk if it's any better or worse for you than competing products.
Personally, when I see ads for something suddenly plugged everywhere I look, I get immediately suspicious. Going from nothing to a huge influencer push seems to me like they want to trick me into just buying them without looking at any reviews. Very informative video. Doesn’t seem like a scam but definitely not going to buy them like I was tempted to the first time I saw them plugged.
I'm happy to came across your video, because I've seen a review video done by another youtuber that's just a 15 minutes of bashing and pointless aggressive skits. The fact that you tried to be fair in your review is a big deal for me. Thank you for sharing this.
Imagine in the end he says: "Thank you for watching this video and also thanks to Raycon for sponsoring this video". EDIT: Holy moly, Thanks for all the likes
I actually bought a pair of Raycons after one of my fav youtubers was sponsored by them. I was not blown away by the quality, they didn’t stay in my ears very well at all.....in fact they constantly fell out while I was at work (and I’m a janitor so I was scared they’d land in the toilet, and they did land in the trash more than once). Maybe I just have small ear holes tho, I can’t really get any buds that fit right. Eventually completely out of the blue one of the buds stopped working properly. If I pressed the button to turn up the volume it would go silent in that side until I messed with it enough to get some sound back in. Then later when I was on a 6 hour flight it went out entirely (great timing). Now they sit in a drawer. I owned them for less than a year before they broke, and I took good care of them too (besides constantly falling out) and I always kept them in the case. (Note that I had the E25 and the ones in this video are the E55) Now I have a pair that wrap around my ears that I got for free and they’ve lasted about a year and a half (and still going strong!)
@@wowland6873 that guy said he used them for less than a year so they were still under warranty. He could have easily had them replaced with new ones for free (I've done it), and I've used a lot of different brands, my girlfriend has used a lot of different shitty offbrand earbuds as well as airpods, and I think raycons are just better in every way, but I do love bass. Also to address his concerns about ear size, I slightly related to that with the smaller e25's, but I have two pairs now and I love the e55's and use them every night at work
Good and honest reviews are what I appreciate, when ever I hear x y or z company sent me this to review it I’m already done with the video. I appreciate people who go out of their way to review stuff with their hard earned money.
They work great for the price though. Been using mine for so long with no issues other than losing them only to find them a week later when I wear them while falling asleep.
Too bad this didn’t pop up in my recommend yesterday before I ordered a pair lol *edit* Alright I got them in the mail (they took two weeks) and they really aren’t bad. They’re definitely not equivalent to the $160 AirPods. But for $60-70(depending on if you use a promo) it’s a great deal. The bass isn’t over bearing, they fit well, they connect fast. I haven’t used it yet and don’t really intend on using the microphone though. The only problem is my own personal preference that I don’t really like headphones with the squishy rubber buds which is what these have even though you can change them out to find the right fit.
The call quality on these earbuds are absolute garbage. Every time I had a FaceTime call or regular one the person couldn’t hear me. I’d say the best thing about these are just the case.
@@legodragon101 airpods actually have amazing mic quality, they might just have fakes or bad settings For the record, I literally have never used any true wireless buds. I'm just speaking from experience with others
I LOVE bass in my music, but that doesn’t mean much when you listen to a song that is a base focused song and you boost it further. After you do that it sounds patchy and just like one continuous blast which no one likes. Good to hear this before I bought this since I was considering buying this cus of other TH-camrs. 👌😎🤟
I usually like to hear the bass more. I’m most songs it seems like the bass is the quietest instrument out of all of them and it gets lost in the guitar
I like listening to the Bass Boosted Doom Eternal OST, mainly cause the bass is drowned out by all the other sounds. If i had double bass boosting i would lose my hearing
If you like bass, get the Skullcandy Crusher headphones. They have an adjustable bass slider. Turning these bad boys up is like being in a car with the sub-woofers. But if you get tired of that, you can just turn them down to whatever amount of bass sounds best.
Fishlord They’re meaning it in a mixing sense, not as in Bass Guitar. Turning up the bass won’t make you hear the bass guitar more if it’s mixed properly.
I've been wondering how good these were since all the ads started. Thanks for doing this series it really helps to give people a perspective on less reviewed products.

@KimuTone yes, I'm lying to you. Because I have nothing better to do with my life than make up shit in TH-cam comments. But dammit you found me out. Guess I'll go be sad that random internet person disagrees with me.
TH-cam sponsors are the new version of ‘As Seen On TV’. I’m staying away from Saatva mattress, manscape, vpn express, ridge wallet, square space, me undies, magic spoon etc.
Ridge is decent so far with my experience, but its a certain type of wallet that you would really want to use. Purple and casper I heard great things about too since they also sell in stores and don't 100% rely on youtube sponsors. But the rest are debatable. VPNs are questionable if they advertise instead of worry about their services. Squarespace was overpriced. The rest I haven't heard of, but aren't so hot. And I don't talk about the shadow legends that are mobile games.
I have the black E25 and the only two complains I have are: 1. Yes, the mic isn't that amazing sometimes I have to take out the right bud and speak into it for someone on a call to understand me better. 2. I've also had the issue where they don't always turn off when you set them to charge . I haven't tried the E55 so I can't compare but I've very satisfied with my E25 and they only cost me around 60$ so hey maybe go for the lesser version if you don't wanna pay over 100$ for the toy looking ones with the ugly ass foil.

Nobody cares tho
Raycon: Atleast it's not a Raid Shadow Legends sponsor.
The most truth
I wonder if that game is any good. I've downloaded it probably 3 times and never played it.
@user98xp It’s an EA RPG except not EA. There you go.
@@user98xp downloaded it even before all the sponsorships on youtube. Found it randomly searching for new mobile games to play during my free time away from home. Tried it for 3-5 hours (on/off) and honestly, there's a lot better games in the genre. Summoners war is one example. If you aren't really a fan of the genre, there's no way you'll like raid, like at all. If you are, then give it a try, but imho there's a ton of better alternatives.
And that's putting the annoying marketing aside. Take that into consideration and your opinion of the game will just plummet further.
@@user98xp SomeOrdianaryGamers did a couple videos about it and pretty much said it's a terrible game
Someone who gives an honest review without an irritating voice, amazing.
My experience with Raycons: I was in the market for some wireless earbuds and I kept seeing TH-camr promote these so I decided to buy some for myself. With all these youtubers saying how great and amazing they are and quality they are I splurged for the E55s. For a month they worked pretty well but after words they started getting bad, the right earbud mainly. The right bud would get super quiet, could barley hear anything even when on max volume. It also wouldn't properly charge in the case, I had to very carefully position it just right and if I moved it even slightly the earbud would no longer charger, so I couldn't just put them in the charging case and go about my day, charging them was a hassle. Overall awful experience with mine, dont think I'll be buying any sort of Raycons product ever.
the extra bass edit was clever lol
Ayy
So I was watching your videos... And now all of the sudden I got this video on my recommended which you viewed and commented on. YT algorithm is wack.
hi
Rip ppl hearing this part using a raycon
What up
The problem with their “half the cost of expensive earbuds” is a company called Anker exists, and they truly are the value with quality kings in accessory technology.
Just got the liberty 2 pros and they are incredible
I have the Soundcore bluetooth headphones, the ones with a cable joining the ears together. They were £29 and they're excellent and have lasted better than the Jaybirds they replaced which fell apart twice and were replaced twice. Anker is great.
I brought from Anker, and got the Anker Soundcore ANC (btw there headphones) for 80$ Canadian and they are great for the price.
and that the expensive earbuds they are talking about is the best

@@Josuh Well at least they're useful
@Papa Beja something to look out for is a lot of youtubers and even VPN websites themselves say they can protect you from hackers when they might not be able to- there's some pretty good videos on here that explain how a VPN works. It can hide your location from websites- but a hacker or a website can still potentially get your location from addresses entered into accounts/mailing used to buy things ect. and it might not hide a lot from your internet provider as well for that same reason- so if you plan on using it as a "internet safety feature" and not just something to watch a video or use a website you normally couldn't use- i'd be careful

@Andrew Rubalcaba the best thing about rtings is they actually test the frequency response curve. It's a better way to visualise how they sound than just saying "they're bass heavy"
@Andrew Rubalcaba they have reviewed roughly 85 different wireless earbuds and the Raycon E55 were around 75th and the E50s were around 71st the E100 however were 48th So none of them were good enough to have raving reviews over. It's like seeing someone rave about a hersheys chocolate bar.
At over $100, yes they should look and feel like a luxury item.
$90 JBL's feel and sound like they were crafted out of diamonds compared to Raycocks.

I will say I love that more companies are making tiny ear tips. I have really small ears which makes it hard for earbuds to fit me properly.
I was actually thinking about buying Raycons, but was sus because they were a TH-cam sponsor. Glad I saw this video. I also like how you gave an honest, unbiased review instead of just tearing into the company.
I have Raycons, didn’t find out about them through TH-cam - I’ve had em 6 months and honestly I love them, they sound better than what he makes em out to be
It’s weird how people expect some other to make purchase decisions for them. These are cheap rebranded shit selling for jacked up prices.
I have the cheaper raycons, and they sound great and last hours on end, only for 70 dollars
I have the cheaper ones. It’s pretty good for only $70. The battery is good and I rarely run out before I get up to do something else and put them back in the case. The sound quality is better than I’m used to and really good for when I’m stressed out and need to block out the world. The Bluetooth connection is great. The shape of them works really well for me. I wanted something cheap, from a well established company, and that wasn’t Samsung(cause I have an apple phone and figured the connection would be iffy) Yeah, anyway, a not tech person’s review.
I think this review a little unfair. Aside from the two issues that he mentions that i have experienced, the poor mic quality and the earpiece not always shutting down when put inside the case, i have enjoyed the sound quality ans battery life of my earbuds. I find that the bass prevalence makes a more rounded and fuller sound as opposed to the more tinny sound of other earbuds. All in all i have been satisfied with my purchase and by daughter and neighbor have picked up their own pair to support my fav utuber and get a good price. I feel it was $45 well spent.
sometimes a little extra money does pay off. Just snag some Sony's or the Galaxy Bud Plus's. Better battery life, mics, and sound

The worst part about it all and honestly the part where I'm curious as to the legality of things is when they claim to have used said product beforehand or have personal experience etc. When pretty much every youtuber sponsored has the same "personal story" I find it really hard to believe that there's any truth to it.

Its pretty much the same game that Soulja Boy was doing. They buy up a cheap ass Chinese product then slap some branding on it. Then market it to easily impressionable youtube or pop culture fans.
"how do they sound"
"well mate, i bet they are so bassy so much bass mate i bet they're just the bassiest"
No not really i wish that was then it would be actually something interesting to talk bout😘
"Mate as soon as I heard the sound coming out, no lie i bully laughed “-Dank Aussie mate
I got the E25s when they were $68, which I thought is what they were about: entry level wireless earbuds. Sound was entry level, mic was entry level, so exactly what I expected. But they stayed in my ear during workouts, so that was great.
The fact that the E55s are double the price but seemingly the same entry quality as the others is surprising.
As someone who uses the E25s I would say don't pay more than $70 for them. What Raycon did here by gaining traction by selling them at the entry level but then doubling the price once they had popularity and not improving the quality is shady and disingenuous.
Also, the original case is way better looking than this cheap looking one.
The e25 are still at $80 and at a 15% discount there at $68, so I’d recommend the e25 just because there cheaper and basically offer the same thing. I just bought them and I’ll see for myself if there good.
I think you're just paying more for the E55 case itself rather than doubling the price for the earbuds alone since the E55 is bigger and can wirelessly charge and the E25 is smaller and can't.
I have the E25s in black and they're holding up pretty well since I got them about a month ago (even dropped one is sour cream during taco night before figuring out the right size nub to use). Gotta say, I kinda forget I have them in now unless I wander away from my phone or go to mess with my hair. I like how I can wear them at work and no one is the wiser.
For a proper entry level bluetooth earbuds, go for redmi airdots, 1/3 the price of these and basically a normal wired headphone quality but in bluetooth
Lmao or don't get scammed into buying a brand name. I got some rpetty good dual driver wireless earbuds with bt5.0 for $35 on Amazon. They do have the cord though between them to extend battery life, but I wanted them like that so I could wear them on my jetski. They're ipx7 too so better than e25s. Also got about 20h of battery life on my first charge. search "linklike ipx7" on Amazon it's the first result
@@SamCyanide I wouldn't call Raycon a recognizable brand name; that's not why people buy them. It's not like Beats or something. As for truly wireless, I'd say that's a matter of preference. Personally, I wanted truly wireless earbuds (I've had Jaybirds and I have some OnePlus bullets) specifically because I don't like the wire, but you pay extra for it. And the battery life - coupled with the case that recharges the earbuds - has been great, for my uses, anyway. The wire is something you wanted for your case, so it works for you, but that's what keeps the price down, I believe.
Raycon Ad in a TH-cam Video:
I sleep
Video talking about Raycon objectively:
**FAST CLICKS**
REAL SHIT??!?
Haha same here
*R E A L S H I T*
@@Singerisacrook ?
That's cause everyone knows advertisements are objectively biased. You have to remember that every TH-camr sponsored are almost always set on a tight script in regards to how they advertise the product.There isn't a company in the world that would shit on their own product, so when you start hearing a sponsorship from a video, you would simply click away. On the other hand, videos like these are more factual and objective in regards to the product. So most people, just to see how true the advertisements really are or sometimes to try and make a better decision, would watch these reviews.
Everytime I see multipe TH-camrs suddenly start advertising some product as if it's god's gift to earth I know it's probably bad.
SAMEEE
Like curology
"As if it's god's gift to earth" gave me a good chuckle
@Thelce Exactly. Trust your instincts. I came here to see if my instincts deserved a pat on the back
I saw a youtuber i usually watched promote these, but only focused on the durability of the case- while making it out that the earbuds themselves can also withstand anything. Without showing even a smidgen of the earbuds- didnt even show them still in the case before durability tests. I knew right away he was tactifully hiding the earbuds because most likely they were horrid.
So that's why they sponsored the hip-hop artists you mentioned and most ASMRtists I know. Because both of those need to have extreme bass to be a great experience
He just showed the ear buds I have when he said "cheap Walmart earbuds" 3:03
Same here.
I was like uhhhh
You gotta work with what you have?😂😂😂
Same I do like how durable they are though
You knew what you were buying when you bought them. But I mean, if it works and is affordable, who cares.
Honestly those cheap fucking Jlab headphones are solid for the price and have served me well.
This is sad. TH-camrs that say like "I really don't say they are great because they sponsor me, they just sound great and I use them every day" pay with their credibility at this point.
Also keep in mind, they could just have no clue if they really sound good.
Yeah, just like they play Raid Shadow Legends every day and want you to join their clan or whatever :)
No youtuber has any real credibility whatsoever
TH-camrs normally get one for free. So for the price, THEY paid it might be really good and they really use it every day.
Also Ray Con gives them a script that they need to say according with the contract I suppose, so is reasonable
Most people don't care about high fidelity or really would notice it unless the difference is absolutely massive. They may well not even know they aren't great. And as the video says they are well suited to you if you are a fan of heavy bass.

The thing with ear buds and headphones is that we've pretty much perfected the technology as it is and its really cheap yet we keep being sold really expensive ones
I have a rule of thumb: The more something is advertised by TH-camrs, the less I'm interested in your game / product / service. And sorry, bass heavy earbuds with a terrible mic is proof for why I do that.
Agreed
idk dollar shave club is genuinely pretty convenient
Lol Bruh you have a mlp profile picture are you even old enough to work
Yup. I will never buy anything advertised by a youtuber because I simply don't trust that they have actually used and liked the product. Tbh, sponsor plugs just become white noise for me and I almost subconciously start taping the phone screen a few times to move pass it.

Is everybody just going to ignore the fact that they’re just bw-fye5 rebranded?
Yeah pretty much, as if anyone knows what a bw-fye5 is.
You took the words from me. We can't talk that this is a rebranded product because 99.9% of people don't know or won't even research the model of a product. Even less see if it is rebranded.
Yes
I looked it up i couldn't find any thing on it do yall have a link or something
Lol, Ray _con_
I’ve noticed that the times when the pairing doesn’t break off, it ended up being due to the case running out of power.
I also paid.. $55 for them. What happened to the price?! lol
Yeah I thought they were 70$ max! That was the point of the earbuds lol
you're probably thinking of the e25, they have two models. one cheaper, one more expensive. This is the more expensive version which makes me think the cheaper ones are even worse
Dabrenn nah they raised the price of the e55 when the e25 released. I got a pair for like 50-60 dollars from their official website
385 tl wow
Yeah they were saying it supposed to be cheaper, but better quality like other earbuds
This video was just in my recommended.
And I swear to God, I have those exact same earbuds with the same case without the Raycon branding. They're from China and I paid 11€ for them.. Yeah.
They're not terrible, they do what they're supposed to, but it's so funny that it's just a very very cheap rebranded product.
This literally just looks like dropshiping. It’s clearly a Shopify website, and these look like they are just normal TWS earbuds.
Yeah basically a branded 1 product store lool
They are
As opposed to figuratively looking like dropshipping?
Just never trust any product where they seemingly spend all their money on ads
Cameron Machi just like lit mobile
“Half the price of other wireless headphones”
*€5 cheaper then the Samsung and apple wireless headphones*
So Samsung headphones are only €10? Seems like they got a lot cheaper

haters will say ‘he saying they’re shit cos he pissed he ain’t get a sponsorship’
I have the e25 and I'm very disappointed. I'm currently in the process of returning mine for an exchange and if it's more of the same I will just not use them anymore. The sound is just ok. My regular skullcandy earphones sound far better imo and I only paid like 10 bucks for those. 😂🤦🏿♂️
Haters will said
Bruh fuck this sponsor
This is me when someone sponsored raid shadow legends
Others like Nordvpn and other sponsors I'm not hating it
Hello I'm RAID SHADOW LEGEND'S
The case is very durable actually, this one dude “Graystillsplays” has gotten sponsored and crushed the case with his CAR, and it didn’t even break
Wow, I guess if I ever run them over with my car I shouldn’t be worried. Cuz that’s the most important thing.
@@WaywardVector One of my friends actually did drop his case (different brand) ay a gas station and it was promptly run over by a Civic. So it does happen. But more importantly, if it survives that, then you know it ought to do well if dropped on the sidewalk or sat on in a back pocket or something. Some devices can really be like eggshells, so durability matters.
Plot twist: the car was being held up by balloons like the house from UP
Gray blended them too in a frickin BLENDER. I think we found the Nokia of earbuds.
@@JETZcorp vibration resistance is far more important to these cases than force resistance.
Snoop Dogg will shill anything. I bet he’d advertise a funeral home during a eulogy if the money was right.
lmao
he advertised freaking spyro the dragon
Did somebody say... Menu Log?
@Gus Williams tf does that mean😂
Au they’re actually cousins. There’s another video reviewing them, and 4 out of 6 of the main celebrity endorser Raycon has are Ray J himself, and 3 family members (his cousin, his wife, and his sister)
I'm not buying sponsored products before I've seen someone who wasn't paid to tell me the product's good tell me it's actually good. Definitely a needed series. I wonder how far he would be willing to go from the category tech to something like Raid Shadow Legends or Gfuel.
I only bought mine after seeing GreyStillPlays put the case through a blender and ran it over with his car.
@Diego Jerez I've tried gfuel. It's fine for what it is, I think it's pretty similar to other drinks that I've tried. Flavor I tried (green apple) was so-so. As for if it's good for you... it's an energy drink, basically NO energy drinks are good for you. But idk if it's any better or worse for you than competing products.
@Diego Jerez I got gfuel, it doesn't "boost your energy" whatsoever, it just made me extremely mellow and tired.
Personally, when I see ads for something suddenly plugged everywhere I look, I get immediately suspicious. Going from nothing to a huge influencer push seems to me like they want to trick me into just buying them without looking at any reviews. Very informative video. Doesn’t seem like a scam but definitely not going to buy them like I was tempted to the first time I saw them plugged.
Nothing wrong with sponsored videos, but yeah you shouldn't just blindly buy without researching or checking out alternatives
I'm happy to came across your video, because I've seen a review video done by another youtuber that's just a 15 minutes of bashing and pointless aggressive skits. The fact that you tried to be fair in your review is a big deal for me. Thank you for sharing this.
Imagine in the end he says: "Thank you for watching this video and also thanks to Raycon for sponsoring this video".
EDIT: Holy moly, Thanks for all the likes
I really like your profile picture.
@@sansaraee I like it too.
lmao. But seriously if raycon sponsored this video he would probably be forced to talk good about it
@Judy Ham go ahead it is all yours.

Yo, there's a spelling mistake on their description.
"Press play on Raycon Inc and enjoy top teir sound."

yeap i must come before e 👍🏿
Never buy something from a company with spelling mistakes, they dont even take themselves seriously 🤣
Brother
I actually bought a pair of Raycons after one of my fav youtubers was sponsored by them. I was not blown away by the quality, they didn’t stay in my ears very well at all.....in fact they constantly fell out while I was at work (and I’m a janitor so I was scared they’d land in the toilet, and they did land in the trash more than once). Maybe I just have small ear holes tho, I can’t really get any buds that fit right.
Eventually completely out of the blue one of the buds stopped working properly. If I pressed the button to turn up the volume it would go silent in that side until I messed with it enough to get some sound back in. Then later when I was on a 6 hour flight it went out entirely (great timing). Now they sit in a drawer. I owned them for less than a year before they broke, and I took good care of them too (besides constantly falling out) and I always kept them in the case.
(Note that I had the E25 and the ones in this video are the E55)
Now I have a pair that wrap around my ears that I got for free and they’ve lasted about a year and a half (and still going strong!)
Be blown away of how SHIT raycons are, even worse than Express and Nord Vpn
@@nomore3207yesalot That's a blatant lie, they aren't "shit" at all
@@maxdrags3115 Can you give us a reason why?
@@wowland6873 Why should I?
@@wowland6873 that guy said he used them for less than a year so they were still under warranty. He could have easily had them replaced with new ones for free (I've done it), and I've used a lot of different brands, my girlfriend has used a lot of different shitty offbrand earbuds as well as airpods, and I think raycons are just better in every way, but I do love bass.
Also to address his concerns about ear size, I slightly related to that with the smaller e25's, but I have two pairs now and I love the e55's and use them every night at work
Good and honest reviews are what I appreciate, when ever I hear x y or z company sent me this to review it I’m already done with the video. I appreciate people who go out of their way to review stuff with their hard earned money.
I love how when he mentions the cheap Walmart headphones and shows a picture of my exact pair oh J labs xD I’m so weak
They work great for the price though. Been using mine for so long with no issues other than losing them only to find them a week later when I wear them while falling asleep.
Too bad this didn’t pop up in my recommend yesterday before I ordered a pair lol
*edit* Alright I got them in the mail (they took two weeks) and they really aren’t bad. They’re definitely not equivalent to the $160 AirPods. But for $60-70(depending on if you use a promo) it’s a great deal. The bass isn’t over bearing, they fit well, they connect fast. I haven’t used it yet and don’t really intend on using the microphone though. The only problem is my own personal preference that I don’t really like headphones with the squishy rubber buds which is what these have even though you can change them out to find the right fit.
Maybe you could ask for a refund since it's only been one day?
@@bellystrawHe has 45days....
You can returnt it tho
oof....
Same
The call quality on these earbuds are absolute garbage. Every time I had a FaceTime call or regular one the person couldn’t hear me. I’d say the best thing about these are just the case.
I mean i got the sony xm3 and i cant call anyone on them either.
Whenever my friends use their AirPods it’s the same case
I find airpods very stupid and can easily lost
ZΞNIXIØΝ don’t be careless lol
@@legodragon101 airpods actually have amazing mic quality, they might just have fakes or bad settings
For the record, I literally have never used any true wireless buds. I'm just speaking from experience with others
The Final Verdict: They are mediocre.
Thays being nice.
So your saying these are like RAID SHADOW LEGENDS of earphones
Except that Raid is not going to fill you with emptyness and regret after spending 100 dollars. With Raid, you'll just "this is shit" and unistall it

@@nobody-tj1mv This is the internet not an English essay
I LOVE bass in my music, but that doesn’t mean much when you listen to a song that is a base focused song and you boost it further. After you do that it sounds patchy and just like one continuous blast which no one likes. Good to hear this before I bought this since I was considering buying this cus of other TH-camrs. 👌😎🤟
I usually like to hear the bass more. I’m most songs it seems like the bass is the quietest instrument out of all of them and it gets lost in the guitar
I like listening to the Bass Boosted Doom Eternal OST, mainly cause the bass is drowned out by all the other sounds. If i had double bass boosting i would lose my hearing
Bass is addictive, but most bass-heavy earphones tend to sacrifice clarity.
If you like bass, get the Skullcandy Crusher headphones. They have an adjustable bass slider. Turning these bad boys up is like being in a car with the sub-woofers. But if you get tired of that, you can just turn them down to whatever amount of bass sounds best.
Fishlord They’re meaning it in a mixing sense, not as in Bass Guitar. Turning up the bass won’t make you hear the bass guitar more if it’s mixed properly.

I've been wondering how good these were since all the ads started. Thanks for doing this series it really helps to give people a perspective on less reviewed products.
"The trim makes them look like some $30 Walmart earbuds"
*shows JLab earbuds*
Me with JLab headphones on: O_O
No worry I love the jlab air icon earbuds
@@jesustrejo2602 I got mine recently I love the JLAB earbuds they sound good and they are affordable, and the mic sounds good
The Jlabs look way better imo never tried them though.
bought my jlab pair from walmart for 19 bucks, insanely underpriced imo
Probably is
The mic on them sounds like I'm listening to a radio talk show
But through a tube while lying in a pond
Like some random AM station, where they’re taking listener phone calls.
Toastie *80’s like jingle plays* **Deep male voice** Pat and John are the hosts of... The Big Gay Radio station 670 AM
Pat: Weeelcome back to the big gay Im Pat and were here with a guest calling in, Sarah from Springfield, how ya doin’ sarah?
Sarah: Good Good, so i wanted to talk to you about-
you know those stations
@Phil Thomas Is it odd that anyone I've seen whose sponsored by them never mentioned the mic. Hell, I didn't know it had one till I saw this video.
I’ll be honest, hearing an ad for RayCons while listening to ASMR is really, really convincing.
That i hate soooooo fucking much. Im fine with an ad before the video starts, but an ad in the middle of the video? Or even worse, an ad dragging me straight outta sleep at the end? It really fucking sucks. I actually noticed a way to get rid of most of the ads from the video. You just skip before an ad and it has a chance to disappear. And at the end you just let it play and then skip to the beginning
@@joeyjointjebaiter1275 If you really wanna get rid of ads just install something like ad block plus on your browser. You'll never see another youtube ad again
Justin I’m pretty sure there talking about the youtuber doing the ad, which would make the ad blocker useless since it can’t block a ad in the actual video
@@deathlikecoast2738 first of all, they're* second. That's called a sponsorship, not an ad.
Death • sponsorship is still a form of ad and you don’t need to be a grammar Nazi
I'm listening to this on my E25's. I've had them for over a year now and I like them quite a bit.
@KimuTone $80, and I do have a lot of experience with sound quality, and these are quite good. Sorry if your experience with them was bad.
@KimuTone yes, I'm lying to you. Because I have nothing better to do with my life than make up shit in TH-cam comments. But dammit you found me out. Guess I'll go be sad that random internet person disagrees with me.
It's fine if you like them, some people like ridiculous overdone bass and some people like music. It's all subjective.
TH-cam sponsors are the new version of ‘As Seen On TV’. I’m staying away from Saatva mattress, manscape, vpn express, ridge wallet, square space, me undies, magic spoon etc.
The ridge wallet is actually pretty decent but yes everything else is quite trash. Manscape is straight trash for it's price
I agree with doctor strange ridge wallet is good
Square space is pretty decent
Ridge is decent so far with my experience, but its a certain type of wallet that you would really want to use. Purple and casper I heard great things about too since they also sell in stores and don't 100% rely on youtube sponsors. But the rest are debatable.
VPNs are questionable if they advertise instead of worry about their services.
Squarespace was overpriced.
The rest I haven't heard of, but aren't so hot.
And I don't talk about the shadow legends that are mobile games.
squarespace is good
I have the black E25 and the only two complains I have are:
1. Yes, the mic isn't that amazing sometimes I have to take out the right bud and speak into it for someone on a call to understand me better.
2. I've also had the issue where they don't always turn off when you set them to charge .
I haven't tried the E55 so I can't compare but I've very satisfied with my E25 and they only cost me around 60$ so hey maybe go for the lesser version if you don't wanna pay over 100$ for the toy looking ones with the ugly ass foil.
I originally had no real problems with the E55 with the original price, now they've increased the price and uhhhhhh anyway hate the paint chipping.
