The Haylou X1 Plus are true wireless earbuds designed for everyday use, offering a cable-free listening experience in a lightweight 7.6 g earbud fit. They feature stereo sound through 12 mm drivers covering a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20000 Hz, and connect via Bluetooth 5.4 with AAC codec support and an audio latency of 65 ms. A travel bag is included in the box, and the earbuds support voice prompts and an on-device control panel for straightforward operation.

On the power side, the Haylou X1 Plus carry a 35 mAh rechargeable battery rated for 6 hours of playback, extending to a total of 24 hours with the 300 mAh charging case. Fast charging is supported over USB Type-C, with a full charge time of 1.5 hours.

Wireless charging is not supported, and the earbuds have no active noise cancellation, passive noise isolation, or water resistance rating.

Pros

A 4-microphone setup with noise-canceling capability helps keep voice calls clear by reducing background interference
Bluetooth 5.4 provides a modern wireless connection with AAC codec support for reasonably efficient audio transmission
The combined 24-hour battery life between the earbuds and charging case supports extended use across multiple days
Fast charging support reduces downtime when the earbuds need a top-up
A travel bag is included in the box, adding practical value for users who carry their earbuds on the go
The on-device control panel and mute function allow convenient call and playback management without reaching for a phone

Cons

No active noise cancellation or passive noise isolation means the earbuds offer little protection against environmental noise
The earbuds carry no water resistance rating, making them unsuitable for workouts, rain, or any wet conditions
Higher-quality audio codecs such as aptX, LDAC, and LDHC are all absent, limiting audio transmission quality for discerning listeners
There is no in-ear detection, so playback does not pause automatically when an earbud is removed
No find device feature is available, which makes locating misplaced earbuds more difficult
Fast pairing is not supported, so connecting to a new device requires a manual pairing process each time

Who is this for?

The Haylou X1 Plus are a practical fit for everyday casual listeners who want a straightforward true wireless experience with a decent total battery life of 24 hours across the earbuds and case. The 4-microphone noise-canceling setup makes them a reasonable choice for users who take frequent calls in moderately noisy environments, while the included travel bag and lightweight 7.6 g build suit commuters and those who carry their earbuds regularly. Users who prioritize fast charging convenience and long daily use over advanced audio features will find the power setup well suited to their needs.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who work out or use their earbuds in rainy or humid conditions will find the complete absence of water resistance a significant practical limitation. Audiophiles or those who demand higher-fidelity wireless audio will be held back by the lack of advanced codecs such as aptX, LDAC, or LDHC, with AAC being the only supported option beyond the standard connection. The earbuds are also a poor match for environments with significant background noise, as there is no active noise cancellation or passive noise isolation to reduce unwanted sound, and the absence of in-ear detection adds friction for users who expect automatic pause functionality when removing an earbud.

Final Verdict

The Haylou X1 Plus are a no-frills true wireless option built around practical everyday use rather than advanced audio performance. Their most convincing strength is the 4-microphone noise-canceling setup paired with a 24-hour combined battery life, which makes them a serviceable daily companion for calls and casual listening on the go. However, the absence of water resistance, noise isolation, and high-fidelity codec support means they are best suited to undemanding listening environments rather than active or audiophile use cases. For users who need a lightweight, call-capable wireless earbud with fast charging and a solid battery backup, the Haylou X1 Plus deliver on the basics — provided expectations are set accordingly.
