Cables can restrict your movements during a workout, and the Bluetooth connection means you won't have to keep your phone too close, such as in a pocket. This means that they are perfect for use during sporting activities. The SoundPeats Q9 Earbuds are indeed wireless and can connect to almost any device via Bluetooth. However, the most interesting feature of these headphones is the lack of an audio cable. The package also includes a USB cable for charging and a black mesh bag in which to carry the headphones.
The SoundPeats Q9 Wireless Earbuds come with two line buckles that let you fold the wire, shortening it plus a wire clamp is also provided so that you can clip the headphones to your clothes. It's long enough to ensure comfort, and at the same time it's adjustable if you find it too long. When wearing Q9 Earbuds, the wire sits on the back of your neck. Thanks to the wire’s flat shape, the headphones won't tangle when left in your pocket or bag. The two earpieces are connected by a smooth flat wire, which is red or black depending on the model. The port is protected by a rubberised flexible cover. On the opposite side of the same earpiece you’ll find the LED indicator with the usual blue/red light, the built-in microphone and the USB charging port. On the right earpiece sit all the controls: there are two buttons for adjusting the volume and changing the track, and a single button for switching on/off, pairing, answering phone calls and playing/pausing music. To stop the SoundPeats crushing your ear canal you can customise them using the three sets of buds (small, medium and large) included in the package. The curving line is either red or grey, depending on which model you choose.
