Baseus - Bowie MC1 Open-Ear TWS Earbuds

good day! could you please tell more about comparison of c40i and mc1? I have mc1, they’re quite good for me, but I feel like c40i could be better but I’m not sure

for home - HiFiman Deva Pro for street - Baseus Bowie MC1

I use the Baseus Bowie mc1 and like them a lot

smaller ears too. most in ear buds either hurt or fall out way too easily for me. now I am using an open ear style called the Baseus MC1. It just clips on the outside, and doesn’t go in your ear at all. doesn’t move around even when walking or working out. It’s been way more comfortable for long use, super lightweight . and I never have to worry about it falling out. around $70 USD, might be a bit above your budget. but if you’ve struggled with fit like I did, it could be worth checking out.

I’ve been using Baseus MC1 and it’ve been great for calls. have AI noise reduction for voice, and the mic stays super clear even with background noise. People can actually hear me now. It’s open ear, just clips onto your ear and feels really light. tbh I hadn’t used a non in ear style before this, but the experience has been better than I expected. I can wear it for 5 hours straight with no pressure at all. And I can still hear what’s going on around me, which is nice for long time calling.

in ear buds give me headaches and just fall out if I move or eat. I’ve tried a few open-ear options and have stuck with the Baseus MC1. It doesn’t go into your ear at all. It just clips on the outside, super light and honestly way more stable than I expected. No pressure, nothing pushing in, and I can wear it for hours. Battery lasts about 6 to 7 hours on a charge and the case gives you more. It’s been solid for music, podcasts, and even calls. If you liked the fit of AirPods 2, this might be worth a look.

I’ve always liked over-ear headphones, but recently I found open-ear ones are surprisingly awesome too! I have an open-ear one called Baseus MC1. my ear canals are just not shaped for many in ear buds. They either start hurting after a bit or just fall out, no matter the size of the tips. The MC1 doesn’t go in my ear at all, just clips on gently. So i don’t need to worried the canal issue and it stay put well. no ear fatigue even after hours. It’s super lightweight, and honestly feels way more secure than anything I’ve used before. Also works fine with my iPhone and MacBook. Definitely a different type of design, but worth checking out if you’re tired of buds not fitting right.

I had the same problem at the gym with other buds randomly pausing, especially when I was sweating. So I ditched anything touch-based and picked up the Baseus MC1. No touch, no heat sensor nonsense. It uses physical buttons tucked behind your ear and hasn’t messed up once. Also stays put even when I’m sweaty and moving around. Might be worth checking out if you’re done fighting with your earbuds.

Go for open ear like [this from Baseus](https://s.shopee.ph/2B0m69dru4) para aware ka parin sa surroundings mo

Ok yan pero pag running dapat open ear. Safety first. Maganda yung open ear ng [baseus](https://s.shopee.ph/3q84kAnJDt)

I use as headphones the momentum 4, and as earphones baseus bowie. Both run great on bluetooth, without latency and great sound cancelation... But momentum costs over 200, baseus around 20-30€.

i think i have those they suck. baseus bowie are the cheapest good ones i have found for $12 USD

Shokz sound quality imo are terrible compared to the competition these days. Open ear are far better sound quality and was running with them for over a year till they broke, even then didn't go back to my shokz, now picked up ear clip designs and loving them specifically the baseus Bowie MC1s as they were cheap and these style are such an odd design, I had no idea how I would get on with them, Bose versions are meant to be the best but they're also 5 times the price. They might look odd but they are fantastic, and leave the top of the ear totally free for glasses. I'm surprised how much and how comfy and how good the sound is. I'm sure some people have tried something other than bone conducting and gone back to shokz, but it seems most have never tried anything else, just tried shokz as it's so highly recommended and stuck there and say they are great having zero comparisons. It's not to say shokz are bad, I just don't think they live upto the competition these days, as there are multiple design options now which are open ear and not bone conducting. Edit - so the 3 I have extensively ran in are Shokz openrun pro - don't get me wrong, they aren't bad, but by far the worst sound quality and loudness, also least comfy by far. 10hr battery life, so not great on that front either, considering size and comfort, sound quality and loudness. Oladance OWS Sport - in the middle for sound quality, equal to the mc1s in loudness, but massive battery life. 15hrs. However they broke, after about an hour they go really quite and have to be turned off for 5-10mins before they work again (my guess amp overheating) very disappointed in customer service which is why I didn't just get another pair, and looked at alternatives. Did manage to get a 60% refund out off them in the end. They also shockingly don't sell proprietary charging cable for it , in all regions they sell the headphones. Baseus Bowie MC1 - by far the most comfy and best sound quality and equal top loudness. Worst battery life (not an issue for marathons but for ultras) but quick charge in their small easy in pocket case. 9hrs single charge, 40hrs with case, 10min in case = 3hrs.(So with case they kind of win on battery, as no wall mount or battery pack required, with cables) So between 9hrs single charge and the 10min fast charge on my ultra I'm hopping to do in around 16hrs, pop them in the case while I resupply at aid stations and should be more than adequate. I am so happy I gave them a try, really thought they would both fall off or/and be uncomfy. They are neither. They don't budge. Would just recommend whatever you get try and get something with easy no question return policy like Amazon, in case you don't like what you get, or they don't fit your head/ears.

What do you think of the XC1? I just recently purchased the MC1 Pro and have been trying them in various configurations to try to get enough volume while still being aware of my surroundings. I noticed today that when walking outside in a not so loud environment I can't get enough volume even when sliding them down to be right against my ear canal. A youtube video I watched said they get 106dB but I just can't believe it. I don't want to return them but it's so frustrating. Thanks for an update on your XC1.

I just returned the Baseus Bass BC1, and I may get them again. I returned them to get the MC1 Pro, but those hurt my ears as they were too tight. The BC1 fit me perfectly, and were very comfortable. they had decent call quality and sounded good. I would go with them!! I may end up getting them again!

I have tried all three, and I still have the MC1 Pro. They are way better than the other two in my opinion. However they definitely aren't that cheap. I was blessed to get them for $43 a couple months ago on Amazon with a couple coupons. They are on sale right now for $63, and that is the cheapest you will normally get them for. However...I also had the normal MC1 and those are still better than these two Soundpeats options in my opinion. Better call quality, sound, battery life (the Soundpeats actually have crap battery life which makes no sense to me as these don't exactly have ANC...)...to me l, everything about both the MC1 and MC1 Pro is better than the Soundpeats. Oh yeah...and you have to log into the Soundpeats app to update them and other crap. You have to log into the Baseus app if you want to have the Find My feature, but I don't care about that. As a matter of fact...I also had the Baseus BC1...and those are ALSO better than the Soundpeats...and they are almost $30 or less.

I have the MC1 Pro and Huawei FreeClip. They are my favorite earbuds. I am highly considering getting the XC1s as well

I am highly considering getting them. One of my favorite YouTubers ranked them number one. Even better than the FreeClip. Picky Audio. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w9fz9CIYspg
