Acefast Acefit Air Review: Sophisticated Style, Solid Materials

For swelling The tide Open earphonesit’s easy to overlook the underdog. When Acefast’s Acefit Air first caught my attention, they looked like other budget ear hooks. Bud’s bassline design allows you to listen to the songs while keeping your ears open to the world.

I was delighted to be surprised to see myself starting out of the box with The Spyware’s thin charging case and sleek, stylishly slim buds with a touch of metallic talent. The Acefit Air’s daily performance is equally satisfying, marked by responsive control and crisp, warm sounds for solid musicality throughout the genre.

These are not the most feature-packed open earbuds, and the fit is subtle, especially when you first stretch a flexible hook behind the ear. For $80, these drawbacks were easy to overlook, and for a few weeks I exploded using these buds throughout my outdoor activities.

There is something completely satisfying about the Acefit Air case. A peek into the plastic bubbles in a bulky box will look like any number of oversized clamshells. It was probably the thinnest case of the buds I’ve tested, making it even more impressive to find that it slipped easily into jeans and short packets. The flat matte finish adds to the atmosphere, but over time it tends to collect oil from the inside and outside skin.

The buds are similarly refined. It weighs about 7.5 grams ( AirPods Pro 2 5 years and over), they are lighter and less noticeable than most ear buds I have tested. Acefast says it is partly due to the “ultra-sleek titanium wire” inside the hook, which was tested with 10,000 songs bends. The fit is very loose and comfortable, you’ll think they’ll fall, but they’re well balanced and I still didn’t lose it while walking, hiking, cycling or stomping.

It can be difficult to properly align the speaker and accompanying vents with my ears, especially the correct ones, as the buds are designed to hang outside the canal. I’ve gotten used to it, but usually I need to adjust the right bud. If you pull it forward, you will see that it will usually be locked into the stereo image.

While injecting the buds I often hear the telltale beeps of their metallic touch sensors, but I rarely make a mistake as Acefast doesn’t seem to respond to them for the first few seconds. Most importantly, unlike many open earphones I test, the touchpad is highly responsive, allowing for single taps on volume, double taps on play/pause, and triple taps on song skipping even in compromise situations like Ebikei. Simply work and these buds are placed before the game.

Speaking of which ebikesbuds are not the best to overcome wind resistance, but do a decent job and let you hear songs and podcasts at medium speeds without the need to blow up your ears. This is a major advantage of open earbuds over traditional buds that rely on microphones that are easily overwhelmed by wind shear and resistance.

Within the rubbery frame of each bud is a “3-magnetic super-linear speaker” that explains the impressive sound quality of the Acefit Air. Acefast is loud and loud to the point that the speakers reduce distortion and rarely exceed the maximum third. This is good because it oddly reduces the EQ of Acefast’s app, but I didn’t think I should use EQ anyway.
