Great for daily travel
Very comfortable for long commutes. The flat design doesn't hurt my ears after an hour of use. The microphone works well for calls in quiet environments.

Classic sound signature
The MX500 flavor is real! These have that warm, vintage sound profile that is hard to find nowadays. Highly recommended for jazz and vocal tracks.

Best purchase for students
As a college student on a budget, these are perfect. They work great with my laptop and phone. The Type-C version fits my new tablet perfectly without needing an adapter.

Good sound, loose fit for running
Sound quality is excellent, but they tend to slip out during intense workouts since they are flat earbuds. Perfect for walking or sitting, less so for sprinting.

Solid build quality
The cable feels durable and the inline controls are responsive. My only minor complaint is that the case could be a bit sturdier, but for this price, it's a steal.

Unbeatable value for the price
I was skeptical about cheap earbuds, but these sound incredible. The bass is punchy without being muddy, and the mids are clear. They remind me of much more expensive models I've tried.
Q: Does this come with both 3.5mm and Type-C connectors in one box?
A: No, you need to select either the 3.5mm version or the Type-C version when purchasing. They are sold as separate SKUs.
Q: Are these compatible with iPhones that do not have a headphone jack?
A: If you purchase the 3.5mm version, you will need a Lightning to 3.5mm adapter. Alternatively, we offer a specific model with a Lightning connector, or you can choose the Type-C version for newer Android devices and iPads.
Q: What is the warranty period for this product?
A: The Yuandao Generation 1 Classic Edition comes with a standard 1-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Q: Can I use the microphone to answer calls on WhatsApp?
A: Yes, the inline microphone and control button are fully compatible with most smartphones for answering calls, ending calls, and controlling music playback on apps like WhatsApp, Spotify, and Apple Music.
Q: How is the noise isolation on these earbuds?
A: Since these are flat, semi-in-ear designs, they do not provide active noise cancellation or strong passive isolation like in-ear monitors with silicone tips. They are designed to let some ambient sound in for safety and awareness.
