Tranya T3

I was skeptical of ear buds, however, I was tired of my Bluetooth headphones... after hearing my friend's earbuds I decided this is the way to go. I can't say that I researched for months, but after a couple days of reading reviews and watching review/comparison videos I was convinced that T3s were the best bang for your buck when it comes to ear buds under $100. Actually, they were even less than 50 ($39.99 with the coupon). The package arrived promptly, 2 days after ordering. The case looks quite nice. While it is fairly small overall, I do wish that it was a little flatter so that it would not bulge out in the pants pockets as much. The case/headphones come pre-charged; which is nice to be able to try the product immediately. Size: quite perfect. Fit the ears great, right out of the box. When the buds are in, noise gets reduced because they fill the ear. Moving my head around/jumping around did not seem to effect the fit. Once they are in, they are good to go for workouts and such. Sound: I must admit, I thought T3s would be a little bit louder. However, when you properly put them in, the sound is quite loud for headphones. The sound quality overall is superb. Clear highs, mids, and VERY punchy lows. Just like other reviews stated. I would say these are probably the best sounding bud-style headphones I have ever owned (much better than the wired ones that came with my S10+). I don't have much to compare to when it comes to other wireless earbuds... I have not tried AirPods or Samsung ones... however, these sound MUCH better than my friend's JLab Audio JBuds Air. T3s are louder and have much better bass without sacrificing mids/highs. Battery: I cannot comment on battery life as I have only used them for about a day. Never wore them for more than an hour so I don't know how long they can last (since when you place them back in the case, the Buds automatically charge themselves up from the case). Perhaps I can do a follow up/edit down the road on this topic. -While the headphones are charging in the case, you see a white light on them, even through the plastic cover. When they are fully charged the light turns off. Also, the case has four lights to indicate the amount of charge left on the case battery. Pairing: Pairing seems quite simple. When you take the earbuds out, they start looking for a device to pair to. I have had a few instances where the right one connected and the left one had to be placed back into the case to reset and connect. Not sure what that's about, but we will see. Buttons: Buttons are quite large and work well. The multiple taps will take some time getting used to, but seems like it would definitely be easier with physical buttons instead of the touchscreen controls. Calling: I had a few conversations on the phone using these and the sound quality was great. However, both times the person on the other side of the line said my voice was a bit quiet/muffled. I suppose that is to be expected when the microphones are in your ears. If you are looking for wireless ear-buds on a budget, I don't think you will be find a better deal than Tranya T3s. I told my friend about them the same day I got them and he immediately purchased a pair for himself. ***** update: 40 days later, the case still has 2 lights for battery life. Certainly havent use them every day, and have used them for more than 3 hours to drain the charge.... but the battery life seems to be phenomenal.

This is my 1st pair of "true wireless" earbuds and have had them for a little more than 2 weeks and am impressed with them overall. I have been a staunch user of wired headsets due to bluetooth's inherent limited audio quality. Over the last few years the quality has improved and quirks such as moments of signal or data drop have all but been eliminated from a good majority of reputable brands. I decided that now would be the time to try these out as the $ to performance value is at a sweet spot for me. I have been a bit envious of wireless earbud or head phone users as during any activity that requires hands in front of you the wired earbuds/headphones would always get in the way, but I refused to compromise on sound quality. I am a bit of an audiophile having started 35 years ago in car stereos, and then high end home audio/home theatre systems, so anything sitting on my ears had better sound good or they go straight back to where I got them. Sound: I generally start with flat equalizer settings on any device so that I can get an idea of where the manufacturer has decided the best sound be. I feel that the sound quality is very balanced with a bit more focus on bass as mentioned in the brands title/description. It is not overbearing by any means, but definitely more present than many earbuds I have used. I have used Bose, Shure, Focal, and B&W so I have a bit of experience to compare with. The hi end is crisp, a tad on the sharp side on some recordings, but overall balances with the bass, with mids perfectly curved in the middle. Fit: I am an avid user of earbuds that have soft silicone tips that fit in the ear canal so I am a bit biased against buds that sit outside your ear such as Apple's ear buds/pods. The T3s sit perfectly in my ear without much adjustment or discomfort. I used them for 7 hours straight last week while traveling and did not feel any discomfort or want to take them out. I must have asymmetric ear canals since I got the best fit with a small tip in my right ear and a medium tip in my left ear. Everyone is different so I recommend trying different sizes until you get a good comfortable fit. The passive noise isolation function depends on it. This does not have active noise cancellation, rather noise isolation, kind of like ear plugs. The better it fits in your ear, the better the seal, from outside noise entering the ear. Battery: As I said earlier, I traveled for 7 hours and listened to them at 75% volume (100% on earbuds, 75% on phone) they lasted without shutting down, but I imagine they were drained. That's plenty of juice for me. I put them in my case and they were fully charged in about an hour. Connctivity: Connecting to my Samsung Note 9 was painless and straight forward. I did not have any issues with connectivity traveling to my regional airport in a vehicle, then flying in a small jet, then walking around the Charlotte international airport. I did experience some disconnecting and pauses while eating in the food court, but I guarantee that any other device would have done the same as I looked at the Bluetooth list and there were about 50 devices scanned in the immediate area, as well as countless other RF devices in that area. Once I left the food court and got to my gate, the disconnecting and pauses stopped. Full disclosure, I did have to return my1st pair due to my left earbud disconnecting while around my house. I contacted Tranya and they responded immediately and ensured that I had received a defective pair and they were correct. I traveled with the replacement pair in this review. A big props to Tranya support. Call quality: This is where you need to take into consideration that these are not the end all solution to earbud/headphone/headset for phone calls. These will give you a great experience on both ends of a call if the room or car is quiet. I could not host a call in the airport as the ambient noise was picked up a bit too much and passed to the other end. For $50, these do well for music and phone calls, but if your main feature is phone calls look elsewhere, but be warned that you will pay 3X more for the negligible difference. In summary, I am very pleased with my purchase and will not be looking elsewhere for a "better" music listening earbud until there is. Not the best for phone calls in loud surroundings but does an excellent job in quiet surroundings. Just buy them already you want the true wireless experience earbuds.

For once, being cheap paid off. I wanted Galaxy Buds, the Jabra 65Ts or the Bose true wireless earbuds, but couldn't see myself forking over $150-200. After researching all the various non-name Chinese options, I kept coming back to these. I'm glad I did. With 5-6 hours of battery life for the buds themselves, they're class leading, and the number of charges you get out of the case is as well. Pairing was completely painless with my iPhone 8+. You can pair and use either bud individually, or use them together in which case the right bud is the "master". I'm happy to report that call quality is fine either way. These have no active noise cancellation, but the included silicone ear pieces seal very well and keep out the worst of the noise - but they may not be the best fit for airplane or other sustained noise reduction. I would prefer Comply foam eartips, but they don't have an official option for that. I may try and experiment to see if I can find a model that fits. Audio quality is surprisingly good. They're no Sennheisers, but for $40-50 I can't complain one bit. Great mid and high clarity. Bass is a bit overwhelming but not to the point of detracting from your music. These are probably great for most consumers - I prefer a more flat response, so I recognize that I'm in the minority. Range - the one thing I've hated about every pair of Bluetooth headphones I've ever had before. These I can pleasantly say have no trouble. No matter what pocket my phone is in - heck - through 2 of my miserable rock lath walls in my house they stay connected with no degradation of signal. Overall a great value.

I train for long distance endurance activities where I'm on the move for 8-20 hours. I run a lot for training, about six days a week, and needed some earbuds that could handle the abuse of training up to 16 hours a week in various environments (gym, trail, city, cold, hot, dusty, etc.). I also wanted something with long battery life without needing a recharge. My longer training runs are in the 4-6 hour range. Many of the competitive products can recharge in the case and give you 60-100 hours of use. However, I wanted something that could last at least 6 hours on a single charge, most competitors (including airpods) are lasting about 3-4 hours tops. These boasted 8 hours on a single charge and I was intrigued. Lastly, I often run without my phone and wanted to play spotify music of my Garmin Fenix 5X plus fitness watch. I now sometimes these music watches can have trouble with bluetooth power levels and compatibility. I have used these for three weeks of training, and one 50 mile / 12 hour mountain ultra. Here are my thoughts: - Comfort: They fit in my ear well with the standard size ear cushion. They seem to lock in well and feel comfortable, even for hours of use. - Durability: I have been using them in the gym for strength and treadmill sessions, out on the trail in the heat and dust for 4 hour runs, and in the city on the asphalt. They seem to handle sweat and dust with no problems. I try an wipe them off before putting them in the case. I haven't been able to test in cold weather yet. - Sound Quality: This seems very impressive for bluetooth earbuds. Great sound and impressive bass. They do seal tight against the ear, which helps with sound I'm sure, but means you'll have trouble hearing others on the trail or street. I run with one earbud in, if Im concerned about this. - Battery Life: The battery life seems to live up to their 8 hour claim. I have used them on several 5 hour trail runs. I recently ran a 50 mile ultra-run race in the mountains and used one ear-bud (races don't allow for sound in two ears for safety) on medium volume for about 7 hr : 45 min and it had not died yet. Also, since the charge case is small, you can always throw the buds in the charge case for a bit, and put the case inside your pocket, pack, or ultra vest. Another option is to use one bud at a time with the other in the charge case and you can have continuous playback in one ear for more than 90 hours. - Fitness Watch (Garmin): These paired right away. The right ear is the master and I wear my watch on my left wrist. I got some music cut-outs when I first paired them and tried to switch the left bud to be the master. You can't with this model when you have both buds in-use (you can use the left solo and then its the master). I also didn't want to move my watch to my right wrist (personal choice). After a few minutes of letting things "sync up" while I ran, the cut-outs went away. I rarely get one, and it's about one second. Usually happens when I turn my head right, further away from my left wrist. I haven't noticed it happening in weeks. No issues with my phone ever. - Call Quality : This was not important to me, but it seems to work just fine. I haven't heard how the mic audio sounds for the receiving person, but I spoke with my wife several times in the middle of the 50 mile race and she and I talked just fine. Overall these are the best bluetooth earbuds I've seen or used at any price, for the features I needed. When you consider the price is 1/3 of the top competition, it's an insane deal. Improvements I would like Tranya to consider. No stars taken off as they didn't promise any of these. I just want them to make the next generation even better and I would pay at least double for these few improvements: - The push button controller on the buds is mildly dis-comforting when you push them in to your ear to activate the buttons. You get softer with your button presses as you get used to these. It would be nice to have the tap-on housing/or gesture type capability, without an actual button press needed. - It would be nice if the left bud could be switched to the master device. Currently you can only use the right as the master. When your using one bud at a time, you can use the left solo. However, if your using a music watch with lower power bluetooth antenna, on your left wrist, it would be nice to have the left bud being the device paired with the watch. You can move the watch to your right, but I like it on the left side. These seem to work fine left wrist to right ear with Garmin Fenix 5X Plus - very rarely I get a quick cut-out of signal for a second if I turn my head to far. - This is probably harder to do and keep the price good and the sound quality up, but it would be nice if you could have a pass through sound feature for times when you need to hear ambient sound for safety. I've heard of this working with the microphones on some earbuds to listen to the sound and pass it to the speaker.

I've had the T3's for almost a year as I'm writing this, and I have to say, these are my favorite wireless earbuds to date; this could easily change with the new products that Tranya has to offer. I initially purchased the T2 for my mother since she was looking for better wireless earbuds. I tried them out for myself very briefly and they definitely left a good first impression on me. This led to me finding and purchasing the T3 for myself and I was even more surprised by them. In this review, I'll be going over the following: Price, Comfort, Controls/Ease of Use, Battery Life, Sound Quality, and Cons. Price: When I purchased these, they were $49.99; however, at the time that I purchased them, there was an option to receive a $10 coupon, making it to what the current price is now: $39.99. For the price and what you get for it, it's an absolute STEAL. Comfort: there's not much to say here! They're VERY comfortable and don't fall out of my ear. I can keep these on for long periods of time. I believe the T3 uses Passive Noise Cancelling, and it works extremely well; once these are on, I can't hear a thing! Controls/Ease of Use: taking the right earbud out of the case automatically turns it on and begins pairing. Once it's set up, the pairing is done within seconds. Always liked that! The right earbud is also the master, so the left earbud can't act on its own. The controls are button-based, but it's simple to use with the instructions given in the packaging. Battery Life: my second favorite thing about these earbuds! I get fantastic battery life. If these are the only things I'm using to listen to music, I'm easily charging them once every month or month and a half (usually the latter). If battery life is what you're looking for, then definitely don't look any further than these! Sound Quality: this is what makes the T3 absolutely worth it: the sound quality. For what I'm hearing out of this, these are worth more than what Tranya is charging. I've used these to listen to almost every genre of music, and it's insane how balanced the sound is. The bass on these is just absolutely perfect as well. I can hear every instrument and small detail in a song, while still getting that heavy bass. I'd go as far as to say that these are extremely difficult to beat, even against the more expensive earbuds out there. Cons: unfortunately, not everything is perfect. 1) since the controls are based on button pressing, it can lead to some slight discomfort since using one finger could lead to unintentionally pushing the earbuds in more. That can be remedied by using two fingers (thumb and index) on both sides of the earbud and using the thumb to do whatever you need to do. That's not an issue for me, but it might be an issue for some. 2) the sound quality of calls can be hit or miss. Based on what people that I call tell me, I either sound good, I'm breaking up, or I can barely be heard. Overall, I can't recommend these wireless earbuds enough! They've been so good to me since I got them. I was originally only using a specific set of wired earphones and headphones, as those still give me the best sound quality; however, giving the T3 a shot has singlehandedly made me start my journey into going wireless. At $39.99, you can't go wrong with these!

Updated: Okay, after having these and using them every day for some time, chinks have are in the armor. There are some pesky connectivity issues that are annoying. Like on some days they'll intermittently cut out, make the chime noise it does when connecting/disconnecting then maybe it'll connect again, maybe it'll just keep disconnecting and reconnecting until you turn them off, place back into the case, wait a minute and try again. This is just one of the few different connectivity issues. None major except for the one time when the left bud became ultimately unpaired with right "master" bud. That was a nightmare and I won't even go there. A big issue that has developed is that you really have to play with the earbuds when putting them in the charging case to get them to actually charge. You need to make sure that both have the white LED showing that they're actually getting a charge. Otherwise if you just put them in and expect them to be full and ready the next time you use them, you will be in for an unwelcome surprise that you can't even use them for a couple hours because they are almost dead. So what's still true is that these earbuds sound pretty amazing for the price and the battery life is really great and I can still get 6 hrs at full volume streaming Spotify. But for me, I think I will be taking a chance on a more expensive pair in the near future. Original review: Just delivered a half hour ago and so far I am blown away by the sound quality these wireless earbuds deliver. I like to listen to music at work and even though I like to consider myself sort of an audiophile, I am content with stereo systems, speakers and earphones that simply get me pleasant sound at high volumes without too much distortion. That being said, I've gone through a number of wired earbuds at work because that's all we're allowed to use. I've been going with wired earbuds instead of wireless since the general rule of thumb is that you get more quality for your buck over the wireless devices and no connectivity issues. However, after accidentally destroying my last pair (RHA MA390 Universal Earbuds) I figured I'd better try wireless since the wires are constantly a nuisance and also the reason I broke that last pair. I exchanged the midsized eartips for the large ones and even though the standard large size tips that universally come with every pair of earbuds on the planet are just slightly too small for my ear canals these allow the buds fit snugly in my ears. I think it has everything to do with their shape. Every wired earbud I've ever owned fall out of my ears occasionally. I then started going down the list of my Spotify playlists, trying all the different genres I have and was truly blown away! They sound best with my jazz, classical and electronic genres. Standard rock and metal is good but I found the bass to be a bit too much for my extreme metal playlist. Not terribly bad like those lame Beats headphones where bass is everything (the only thing), but not ideal. These wireless buds are actually very, very close to sounding like my nicer Bose over the ear headphones. No kidding. I would also add that the volume is at least a few clicks louder than many of the wired buds I've wasted money on the past year or so. Good since I work in a machine shop. I can't attest to the longevity of these yet since I've only had them for under an hour, but if the other reviews about their reliability, comfort and battery life are half as good as they say, I'll be more than happy. So glad I went with these over the $169 pair, the $199 pair or the $249 pair I almost bought that all the online reviews said I should buy. Only con so far is the brand name = Tranya?

UPDATE: I was recently in the market for a new pair of earbuds. After 2.5 years I was still using these and while I loved them I was wondering if an expensive set would resolve my issues with them (I think they were also starting to lose volume although I didn't notice a decline in battery life). In addition to the cons I listed, what really began to grate most of all was the latency between when you placed the earbud in the charger and when the charging light came on. I used these *constantly* (even slept with one in) and dirt had begun to build up in the charging pins/holes. I attempted to clean them multiple times but it's really impossible to get completely clean. This would lead to issues with the earbuds sometimes not charging, or randomly ceasing to charge because the pins lost contact. That's understandable/expected. What was infuriating sometimes was trying to determine whether I had seated them correctly because of the 1-2 second delay in the charging light coming on. It wasn't caused by dirt buildup - it never failed to have a delay even when perfect contact was made. So I'd be stuck repeatedly jiggling the earbuds and waiting to see if it would start charging. Anyway, I got an expensive new pair for my birthday but had to return them because one of the buds was DOA, and I did not care for the tinny sound quality. I decided to get a second pair of these so I could rotate with the other pair. I am extremely pleased to report that the charging delay is fixed! The light comes on instantly now when contact is made. In addition, issue #3 below was fixed, and #1 was improved (the cover is slightly more sturdy). I feel like a jerk for saying this now, but I'm debating now about whether I am still in favor of #3 being fixed. I had grown use to the ability to pair one earbud to my phone and the other to my PC, which came in handy on occasion. Now they both use the same connection profile, though either one can still pair independently of the other. Overall, I'm very happy to see the improvements they've made. I think I might actually buy another set and retire the original pair. === Original Review=== These have good sound quality, no lag, good connectivity, sensible controls, and good fit. I do have a few problems with it, though I've decided not to deduct a star (though #1 almost made me do it): 1) Charger case cover is flimsy. I was worried about this from the beginning. It lasted about 6 months before they dropped from waist height and the cover immediately broke. It's $20 for a new case, nearly half of the price of a brand new pair. I'd wager 99% of the time it's the cover that breaks, so they should just sell the cover, or include an extra with the original purchase. Or better yet just ship a good/sturdy cover. Now I can't carry these in my pants pocket (which was already a dicey proposition with this cover and anything else in your pocket). 2) Takes forever to turn them on/off by pressing the button - like 10s or more. If you have the case handy you're much better off putting them in there and then taking them out after the light comes on. 3) I wish the right bud could sync with the left bud. If you want to connect these two to each other, you have to take out the right and then the left. I typically connect the left one to my phone and the right to my PC, so I don't have to worry about competing pairing for different applications. If I want to use both on the same device, for my PC it's as simple as turning off my phone bluetooth and taking out the left bud - it will sync with the right (often don't need to even mess with the phone). For my phone, I have to turn off PC and phone bluetooth, replace the right earbud, take it out and add a new pairing to the phone, then take the left one out to sync it with the right. 4) Not always easy to remove the earbuds from the case depending on the angle, and the spaces to insert your fingers strike me as a very awkward place to grip it (even though my fingers fit). I usually have better success dragging it out of the case by sliding my finger across the top.

I have tried many of these type of TWS ear buds. All from Amazon due to their excellent return policies. AS you can imagine, when it comes to quality sound, I really gave the field of products out their a pretty thorough research time. These buds, within the range I would not want to spend more, close to $60, fit the bill perfectly. At around $50. Some I tried, the buds were touch sensitive but found them to be to sensitive, pressing the buttons indiscriminately which turned on music on and off when I didn't want to especially when trying to sleep. Others did not have volume control capabilities and other issues. These buds have it all that you could want especially with regard to button pressing that could get annoyingly uncomfortable in the ear after some time. These, in this department were not bad. With volume, they adjust within the buds themselves so the actual sending device, ie tablet will not show any volume change. This is great because every time you put them on, it will always remember the last volume level. A real benefit. Another nice touch with the volume on these, you press the button on left or right twice in fast steps to either lower or raise the volume. So in increments, you can adjust the volume passively. All the others I tried were full on volume. The buds were bought primarily as a music sound experience, NOT for using out doors . If you use for phone calls out doors they may experience breaks due to telecommunications over all the outside wires. Thus in your residence, these work well and I can walk about 50-60 feet without a break in signal. If your needs require use for phone primarily, spend more money for different types. The sound quality as stated earlier is set to between bass and highs however, due to this the mids are amazing, imo. The quality of your source of music will dictate how well bass pulls through. For example, I am a Spotify man and their technology with especially the settings is great but when you listen with these buds, I find Spotify to be slightly muffled but very little and still enjoyable however with the new Amazon music service, their music is, imo studio quality perfect, in fact when you hear the new Amazon music service sound, you may just turn towards them for your music streaming. The size ear tips that come with them are a medium size and these are perfect and are comfortable in at least my ear canal. I have used Comply foam ear tips in the past for other types of buds that I have but with these, I suggest passing on the foam tips especially because the buds go very far in the ear canal and isolate the outside sounds very well and still give you excellent bass response. Burn these in if you wish but it is not necessary as they sound superb right out of the box. If you feel a burnin process is necessary, 3-4 hours should suffice. If you have issues with sound such as cutting out of say left bud which I have to emphasize, rarely occurs, I find the reset procedure to be very helpful in correcting these sound errors. If you look at the Amazon site for the Tranya T3 earbuds, go down the page and it will detail the proper reset procedure. Follow it correctly and it will take care of these music drop issues. For sleepers of these buds, face up is great and side sleepers will adjust so I can pretty much say that sleepers will enjoy them at night. The sound from these will pretty much go continuously for approximately 6 hours straight listening however it also depends on how many button presses you do. The case will recharge the buds for about 2 weeks of top offs to the buds in the very small and light case. To close. Customer service has been a truly wonderful experience. If you have issues with these, contact Tranya first via email before you contact Amazon. They will take care of you better than any other company that I have experienced in this regard. Their instruction manual is top notch too, and this shows also how well they want you to be happy with the company and your buds as well when you are wearing them. Overall, I give these buds and especially the company, Tranya USA, a solid 5 stars and I would buy them again for me if necessary or gift giving.
