Xround Trek

Manufacturer: Xround

The Xround Trek are true wireless earbuds built around an open-ear design, making them suited for users who want to stay aware of their surroundings without sacrificing audio. Weighing just 21 g, they sit lightly and come with a charging case that extends total playback to 27 hours combined. The earbuds support active noise cancellation alongside an ambient sound mode, giving listeners a degree of control over how much of their environment they let in. A travel bag is included in the box, and the earbuds can connect to two devices simultaneously via multipoint pairing.

On the connectivity side, the Xround Trek runs on Bluetooth 5.3 with support for LDAC and Bluetooth LE Audio, alongside AAC for broader device compatibility. The maximum wireless range reaches 15 m, and charging is handled through USB Type-C with fast charging supported, bringing the earbuds to a full charge in around 1.5 hours. A 14 mm driver unit covers a frequency range from 20 Hz up to 40,000 Hz. For calls, the earbuds carry four microphones with noise-canceling capability, and the IP55 rating provides resistance against sweat and light water exposure during activity.

Pros
  • Open-ear fit allows users to remain aware of their surroundings during use
  • Supports multipoint connection to two devices at once, enabling seamless switching between sources
  • LDAC and Bluetooth LE Audio support offer broader high-quality audio codec options
  • The charging case extends total playback to 27 hours, reducing how often the case itself needs recharging
  • Four microphones with noise-canceling capability make for a more reliable call experience
  • Fast charging support helps minimize downtime when battery is low
Cons
  • No passive noise isolation, which may be a drawback in louder environments
  • Bluetooth range is limited to 15 m, which restricts movement from the source device
  • Wireless charging is not supported, requiring a wired connection every time
  • No in-ear detection means playback does not pause automatically when the earbuds are removed
  • No find-device feature, making it harder to locate misplaced earbuds
Who is this for?

The Xround Trek are well-suited for active users who need to stay aware of their environment while listening — the open-ear design combined with IP55 water resistance makes them a practical choice for outdoor activities, commuting, or light workouts where situational awareness matters. Users who frequently switch between devices will also benefit from the multipoint connection supporting two simultaneous sources, and those who rely on calls throughout the day will appreciate the four-microphone setup with noise-canceling capability. The 27-hour combined battery life and fast charging support further suit users with long or unpredictable schedules.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who require strong sound isolation — such as those working in loud or distracting environments — will find the open-ear design and lack of passive noise isolation a significant drawback. Audiophiles or listeners who prefer the aptX codec family will be disappointed, as none of the aptX variants are supported. The 15 m Bluetooth range also makes these earbuds less suitable for situations where the audio source is kept at a distance, and the absence of an in-ear detection feature may frustrate users who expect automatic playback pausing when the earbuds are taken out.
