The Enacfire E90 is slightly more robust than Apple’s AirPods.

The Enacfire E90 is on our list of best true-wireless headphones below $ 50. I thought the shoots were a good deal for $ 40 – they are on the $ 50 list, but usually have a discount of $ 40 – but are now reduced to $ 30 for a limited time. (That’s $ 90 less than you can get Standard AirPods for now.) I have a feeling that they are for sale because Enacfire is soon releasing an updated version, which I just received, which has a low latency game mode. Otherwise, the updated version is the same.
The E90 has stems like AirPods, but they are truncated, cut a little closer to the button, so to speak, giving them a different look. For about $ 30, you will have a hard time doing better in sound quality. The E90 looks pretty decent for the money, with a lot of bass and reasonably good details. The sound profile tends towards the warmer side, which means they are more serious. The buttons fit my ears comfortably and safely – I had no problems using them – and have an IPX8 water resistance rating, making them fully waterproof. The battery life is estimated at eight hours if you play them at 50% volume.

Although they do not have active noise cancellation, they do have noise reduction for voice calls. They are not exactly there with the AirPods Pro in the voice calling department, but callers said I sounded pretty clear and the headphones reduced background noise, so they raised their thumbs for voice calling features. The touch controls responded a lot – you can increase and decrease the volume with a touch and hold gesture.
