Generation & platform

The scores rank quality. This is the other question: is the newer one actually newer technology, or the same platform in a new shell?

Same generation

Both shipped in 2018. These are the same generation of hardware - nothing in the radio, the codecs or the noise cancelling separates them. Nothing separates them on convenience features either, so the choice comes down to tuning and price.

What reviewers said

1MORE E1001

The 1MORE E1001 is a wired hybrid in-ear monitor that pairs a 16mm dynamic driver with two balanced armatures to deliver a rich, detailed sound signature at a budget-friendly price. Its all-metal build, comfortable fit, and generous accessory package make it a compelling pick for listeners seeking premium features without the premium cost. While its tuning is generally balanced and engaging, it does have some minor limitations in soundstage width and cable handling.

  • Pro:Excellent value for a triple-driver hybrid design
  • Pro:Solid all-metal construction with a premium feel
  • Pro:Comfortable, secure fit for extended listening
  • Con:Cable is prone to noticeable microphonics
  • Con:Soundstage feels somewhat narrow and intimate
  • Con:Instrument separation is only average for the price
