The HIFIMAN TWS450 earbuds are the high performance audio brands entry level earbuds which come in a small case and the earbuds are small with no stem, they are clean and to the point like the case that will fit in any pocket which is a nice pebble shaped case with a matt finish.
With more of their higher end earbuds to check out these interested me due to the price they ask for here and one would think do they skimp on sound but in short the answer to that is no, perhaps may not satisfy the true audiophile these pack a serious punch for the price and with no companion app on board to help out with the acoustics either.
You do not need an app or a full suite of features to get great sound these days and having said that the company delivers on sound here which is hard to believe.
So with no app or EQ to play around with what can we expect? Well lets begin with the volume it is great and plenty aloud and the crisp clear audio to follow is fantastic at the price point at the time of this review which is about 40 euro depending on region.
Highs lows and mids bang on queue nice bass and treble and not tinny sound when turned up to the max these simple blow your ears off at the price you pay which is not often you can say that for earbuds at this price from a high performance brand such as HIFIMAN, Like Apple they have had expensive audio products for some time and now have taken on the lower priced product and market and have delivered a class product here which in fairness there is little to complain about..
The use of audiophile-grade dynamic drivers, combined with the unique tuning style of HlFlMAN, produces clear, three-dimensional sound that immerses the listener in a world of music, movies or games. Enjoy an unparalleled listening experience!
As the quote above suggests it is true after testing these for a few weeks, where they do drop on offerings that might be an issue for some is battery life but then you look at the size of these earbuds they are small compared to the average but

As you can see all other standard features are at play here and for a small package with ENC deep noise cancelling and their AI they make a pretty compelling pair of earbuds to check out..
