Soundpeats H3 promise high-quality audio and advanced hybrid ANC, with a stylish look, for a surprisingly low price

FULL STORY ======================================================================Soundpea ts H3 wireless earbuds launch for $129 (about 95 / AU$195) 1 dynamic driver combined with 2 balanced armatures Snapdragon Sound, LDAC and aptX Lossless for higher-res audio

Soundpeats specializes in audio products that punch above their price tag,
and its new H3 earbuds follow in that tradition: they deliver LDAC, aptX Lossless, an elaborate sound system, and hybrid ANC for an impressively low price.

The Soundpeats H3 are triple-driver earbuds with two custom balanced armature drivers and a 12mm composite dynamic driver. They're powered by Qualcomm's QCC3091 chip, which delivers Snapdragon Sound, plus the LDAC and aptX
Lossless streaming I mentioned above. Those are specs to compete with entries among the best earbuds that cost a lot more.

They're also a lot more stylish than I'd expect from budget-focused companies like Soundpeats the patterned gold finish on the buds and their fairly large size look like they're leaning more towards something like Campfire Audio Solaris Stellar Horizon than AirPods, though I suspect these don't have quite as high build quality as those.

The H3 come with a hybrid ANC system that uses six microphones including feedforward and feedback designs, delivering up to 55dB of noise reduction one of the highest levels of ANC reduction in any of Soundpeats' products. There are four ANC modes via the companion app: adaptive mode, indoor,
outdoor and traffic. There's also transparency mode, as well as noise cancellation for your voice in calls.

The buds are lightweight at 6g each and come with five ear tip sizes. Battery life is a promised seven hours per bud and 37 hours with the case, the latter of which is way higher than average, and there's dual-device pairing and a 60ms low-latency mode for gaming and video. Those good-looking housings are IPX5 water resistant.

At $129.99 (we're waiting for details of international pricing; these buds
are going to be available globally) the H3 are very keenly priced and offer
an interesting alternative to more established and often, more expensive brands. And they look more premium than you'd expect from what's effectively
a budget buy.

The Soundpeats H3 earbuds are available to order now. (Image credit: Future) You might also like Soundpeats Air4 Pro review: A cheap, stripped back
