Review: The Anbes XG-13 TWS, available under many different brand names, is a little bass monster at a very little price.

The HearWiki takeAI-condensed

The XG-13 TWS is an ultra-budget true wireless earbud that delivers a surprisingly punchy, bass-forward sound for its tiny price tag. While audio performance exceeds expectations, the short battery life, basic build, and average comfort make it a clear 'you get what you pay for' product.

What works

  • Surprisingly detailed bass-heavy sound for the price
  • Very affordable and often sold under multiple brand names
  • Decent Bluetooth 5.0 connection stability
  • IPX5 water resistance for light workouts

What doesn't

  • Short 3-hour battery life per charge
  • Basic build quality and materials
  • Uncomfortable fit for some ears
  • Only SBC codec support, no advanced codecs

The XG-13 is a typical you get what you pay for-deal. While the bassy sound is surprisingly detailed, the battery life, comfort and build quality are exactly what's to be expected for this price. Buy XG-13 TWS on AliExpress I bought the XG-13 TWS myself, to test and review. I test and review all audio products equally honest - read about it here . Consider buying this earphone? I'd really appreciate it if you use the links in this article . It won't cost you extra, yet it will financially support me a bit in my ongoing quest for great affordable audio. <3 Also read: Leaderboard: All true wireless earphones reviews Guide: The best wireless earphones under $25
