Vivitar True Wireless Earbuds TWS - WE-E62-WT - Don’t buy cheap crap

Review of Vivitar WE-ES62-WT Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds

For just $5 at Target, you can grab a pair of Vivitar wireless Bluetooth earbuds. Known for their basic design, these earbuds are a budget option that resembles Apple AirPods in appearance.

Pairing Process

Don’t expect a seamless pairing experience like with AirPods; it’s crucial to follow the provided instructions to avoid frustration. Many negative reviews stem from users not reading the guidelines, which is common with cheaper tech.

Design & Form Factor

The design is surprisingly decent for the price. They look good and feel okay, which is impressive for $5—making you wonder about Apple’s markup on their products.

Sound Quality

Sound quality is poor, described as tinny and harsh with little bass. While they may not satisfy audiophiles, they outperform some $20-$25 wired options. Adjusting the EQ can help, but the sound can still be tiresome over time.

Build Quality

The build quality feels flimsy, especially the case hinge, which requires gentle handling. Long-term durability is uncertain, as the earbuds might not withstand drops.

Closing Thoughts

Overall, these earbuds are a good deal for their price, ideal for casual use where losing them wouldn’t be a big deal. They also feature Type C charging, effectively giving you a free charging cable with your purchase.

Update 5/1/23

Using these earbuds required bass reduction settings on my iPhone, but they still became uncomfortable after a while. They serve as a functional novelty, but the sound quality is ultimately tiresome.

Update 6/3/23

I've learned not to invest in cheap tech, as they contribute to landfill waste. Although I miss my original Gen 1 AirPods, I’m currently using these for workouts due to their convenience. I plan to upgrade to Gen 2 AirPods if I reach my weight goal of 155 lbs.
