Highly customisable in-ears with a flexible equaliser and clean sound thanks to the free app. Only the case and the headphones could be more compact and easier to travel with.

Sound-wise convincing TWS headphones with a fresh design, good workmanship and high wearing comfort, which, however, fall short in terms of functionality.

All in all, the good handling and long battery life do not make up for the mediocre sound and the strong plug feeling. In their price class, the Aonic Free are therefore at the bottom of the list - clearly beaten, for example, by the TWS 1 from Grell Audio.

At first glance, the Shure Aonic in-ear headphones seem very clunky, but this does not detract from the excellent wearing comfort. For an optimal fit in the ear, earpieces in three different sizes are included in the scope of delivery. The headphones are controlled via two buttons on the top edge of the headphones...
