QCY MeloBuds Pro

Manufacturer: QCY

The QCY MeloBuds Pro are true wireless in-ear earbuds designed for everyday listening without the hassle of cables. Each earbud weighs just 8 grams and carries an IPX5 sweat-resistance rating, making them a reasonable companion for active use. They support active noise cancellation alongside a passive noise-isolating fit, and an ambient sound mode lets users stay aware of their surroundings when needed. Touch controls sit on the earbuds themselves, and the package includes a travel bag for portability.

On the technical side, the MeloBuds Pro use a 12 mm driver with a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz, a sound pressure level of 102 dB/mW, and 32 Ohms impedance. Connectivity runs on Bluetooth 5.3 with LDAC and AAC codec support, multipoint pairing for up to two devices simultaneously, and a maximum wireless range of 10 meters. Battery life reaches 8.5 hours per charge — or 7.5 hours with ANC active — with the charging case extending total playback to 25.5 hours. The case charges via USB-C, and fast charging is supported, with a full charge taking around 1.5 hours. Six microphones with noise cancellation handle voice calls, covering a frequency range of 20 Hz to 25,000 Hz.

Pros

Six-microphone array with noise cancellation covers a wide frequency range up to 25,000 Hz, supporting clearer voice capture during calls
LDAC codec support enables higher-resolution wireless audio transmission
Multipoint connectivity allows simultaneous pairing with two devices
Active noise cancellation combined with passive noise isolation provides two layers of sound blocking
Fast charging is supported, with a full charge completing in 1.5 hours
The charging case extends total playback to 25.5 hours, and a battery level indicator keeps track of remaining charge

Cons

No wireless charging support for the case, requiring a physical USB-C connection each time
Maximum Bluetooth range is limited to 10 meters
No aptX codec support in any variant, restricting high-quality audio to LDAC-compatible devices only
Battery life drops from 8.5 to 7.5 hours when ANC is active
Wingtips are not included, which may reduce stability during more intense physical activity

Who is this for?

These earbuds are well-suited to users who commute regularly or work in noisy environments, as the combination of active noise cancellation and passive noise isolation helps block out surrounding distractions effectively. The IPX5 sweat resistance and lightweight 8-gram build also make them a reasonable choice for those who wear earbuds during workouts or outdoor activity. Users who frequently switch between devices will appreciate multipoint pairing for up to two simultaneous connections, and those invested in higher-resolution audio will find value in the LDAC codec support. The 25.5-hour total battery life with the case suits people who need extended listening across long days without regular access to charging.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who rely exclusively on aptX-based devices for high-quality wireless audio will find no compatible codec here, as aptX in all its variants is absent. Those who prefer the convenience of wireless case charging will also be disappointed, since the case requires a physical USB-C connection. The 10-meter Bluetooth range limits usability in scenarios where the source device is kept at a distance, making these earbuds less practical for users who move freely around larger spaces while listening. Additionally, people engaged in high-intensity sports who need a secure fit may find the lack of wingtips a drawback.

Final Verdict

The QCY MeloBuds Pro present a well-rounded set of specifications for a true wireless earbud aimed at everyday listeners and active users alike. The dual-layer noise management — active and passive — combined with LDAC support and a six-microphone noise-canceling array gives them a technically capable profile for both immersive listening and clear voice communication. Battery endurance is a practical strength, with the charging case pushing total playback to 25.5 hours. Certain limitations, such as the absence of aptX codecs, wireless case charging, and wingtip support, mean the MeloBuds Pro will not satisfy every user's requirements. That said, for those seeking a feature-complete wireless earbud with solid noise cancellation, multipoint connectivity, and respectable audio specs, the MeloBuds Pro offer a coherent and purposeful package.
