Everyone has been raving about the excellent new live action version of the Disney classic movie, Lilo and Stitch, which is so cute and comes highly recommended! Now, Cubed3’s Cassey goes ears-on with the latest merchandise that ties in with the motion picture spectacular. Get ready for the Stitch Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds and Holder from EXG Pro!
Cubed3 loves checking out all sorts of audio solutions for gaming and in general for those with an on-the-go lifestyle, playing sports, or merely relaxing and chilling at home. The earbuds featured here, though, are super special as they are Stitch-branded ones that look absolutely adorable! Yes, they are officially-licenced and feature Disney’s loveable rogue alien, Stitch, who has recently been seen on the big screen causing all sorts of havoc, yet also melting hearts with the loving connection between the little blue critter and the title’s other protagonist, the sweet young girl, Lilo.
These Stitch wireless Bluetooth earbuds and the handy Stitch holder that come as part of the Buds Pro bundle, all come from the experts at EXG Pro, a company that has various other Stitch-related items on offer for those fans hungry for more. The earbuds feature advanced Bluetooth 5.3 technology for seamless connectivity and multi-device pairing (they have a 33-foot Bluetooth range for a smooth, drop-free connection). Plus, with active noise cancellation, you can make crystal-clear calls with the greatest of ease whenever they’re connected to your phone (iOS and Android devices both work with the greatest of ease). The bonus cherry on top? It has a total battery time of 28 hours! Yes, they can indeed be used for more than a day in total, as the earbuds have 30mAh batteries within that last four-to-five hours per charge, and the case is 500mAh, giving around seven-to-eight recharges for a total playtime of 28+ hours. The case itself can also be charged either using wireless battery packs or the USB-C cable included in the package.
The charging case that the earbuds come in is so amazingly sweet. This is hands-down the cutest charging case ever seen, plus since blue is a personal favourite colour, it couldn’t be more ideal, especially given how adorable Stitch is; this is all perfect! Even the actual earbuds have patterns on them, just like the case does. It has an ergonomic in-ear design and three ear tip sizes for a comfortable fit for most users.
In the Buds Pro bundle, there is your very own Mini Stitch Cable Guy designed for him to kindly cradle the Stitch earbuds safely in his hands. He’s also very generous enough to actually hold anything, even your phone, despite his diminutive size… or maybe simply give him a break keep him on display, since the figurine is very snazzy in and of itself. Since these Stitch earbuds are wireless, you can use them whilst gaming or listening to music, and you don’t have to worry about tangled earphones anymore, so you can safely ditch the wires and switch to these Stitch earbuds!
The bundle of earbuds and special stand/holder comes in at £49.99 and the earphones are great for people who live life on the go, whether it’s catching waves, hiking along volcano trails, or relaxing under palm trees since they are IPX4 water resistance for light rain, sweat, or beach adventures! Do take into consideration, though, that the small, medium, and large ear tip sizes might not be perfect for everyone, especially those with much smaller ears. Whilst some may have no issue at all, they didn’t always stay properly in-ear during testing, or would sort of balance precariously and then eventually fall out. This comes down to different people with different ear lobes / inner ear shapes, unfortunately, which is why the likes of Anker offer such a wide range of tips in its Soundcore packages, such as the Anker Soundcore Spirit X2.
Whilst using the smallest of the tips, this sadly also led to the audio not sounding like there was good bass, despite the promise of HD stereo sound with rich, clear audio for both music and phone calls. The volume needed to be turned up quite a significant amount but even then the bass was not really present like you might get in more expensive offerings, such as Apple wired earphones (which, for the record, don’t have the silicone coverings, are shaped differently and do fit snugly, giving a fuller sound experience on the whole). Unfortunately, then, despite being so cute to look at, and the stand so useful in general, in terms of overall audio experience, the Buds Pro earbuds don’t quite stand up too well against competitors.
