Our Verdict
Apple AirPods (1st generation) Truly Wireless
TREBLAB X5 Truly Wireless
The TREBLAB X5 Truly Wireless are more versatile headphones than the Apple AirPods (1st generation) due to their closed-back design, which isolates more ambient noise. The TREBLAB also have better sound quality and pack more bass. On the other hand, the Apple are more comfortable and don’t feel as cheaply made as the TREBLAB. The Apple also have a better battery life, and their case is sturdy and gives you more additional charges. However, if volume control is a must-have for you, only the TREBLAB have it.
