Our Verdict
Mpow X3 Truly Wireless
Mpow M30 Truly Wireless
The Mpow M30 Truly Wireless and the Mpow X3 Truly Wireless are in-ears with different strengths. While both headphones are comfortable and well-built, the X3 have a more neutral sound profile. Their continuous battery life is longer, they have a standby mode to help length the time between recharges, and their integrated microphone has a better recording quality too. However, they aren't any better at blocking out ambient noise, even though they have an ANC feature. Some users may also prefer the M30's stemless design as well as their slightly more bass-heavy sound profile.
