Review: The QCY T3 or Xiaomi T3 is QCY's first Apple AirPods-like wireless earphone after the successful QCY T1c and QS2. How good is it?

The HearWiki takeAI-condensed

The QCY T3 (also sold as the Xiaomi T3) is a budget-friendly true wireless earbud with a semi-in-ear design and solid battery life, offering around five hours per charge and 25 hours with the case. It delivers clear calls and decent performance for the price, though its sound tuning is unremarkable and fit can be tricky. With touch controls, IP65 water resistance, and AAC support, it’s a practical everyday option rather than an audiophile pick.

What works

  • Comfortable semi-in-ear fit
  • Good battery life with case (25 hours total)
  • Clear call quality with dual mics
  • IP65 water resistance for workouts
  • Affordable price with solid everyday performance

What doesn't

  • Sound quality is average with weak bass and detail
  • Sensitive touch controls can trigger accidentally
  • Loose ear tips may need adjustment for secure fit
  • No USB-C or wireless charging support

In order to get the most out of the QCY T3 or Xiaomi T3, you may need a pair of loose ear tips that you have to remove from the QCY every time you put it in the charger. It's a big discomfort - and along with the sensitive touch controls, it prevents the T3 from scoring five stars. However: if you manage to find the perfect fit, there's so, so much to love. The call and sound quality of the QCY T3 are amazing.

The reviewer praises the easy touch controls, comfort, and battery life, but says the sound quality is merely ordinary and notes disappointment with bass and detail. Overall, it is presented as a practical budget true-wireless option rather than an audiophile choice.

The reviewer finds the QCY T3 a strong value pick, praising its good battery life, Bluetooth 5.0 with AAC, and overall performance for the price. The main takeaway is that it compares favorably to earlier QCY models and offers solid everyday use rather than premium-level refinement.

The reviewer emphasizes the comfortable semi-in-ear design, IPX5 resistance, and about five hours of use per charge, with the case adding roughly four more charges. The conclusion is that the T3 is a well-priced, easy-to-use everyday earbud with good battery life.

charging issues

Enjoyed them till one side stopped charging. Cleaned the contacts but didn t fix the problem.

Love these - seem much more expensive than they are!

I love these. Fun color. Charges quickly and the holder maintains its charge for a long time. The sound is really clear for both audiobooks and music. Bluetooths easily. Inexpensive but doesn t feelRead more
