It is undoubtedly the most anticipated cinema release of the summer. If the film barbie will be unveiled on July 19 in cinemas, a few lucky people have already had the opportunity to attend the world premiere which was held this Sunday, June 9 in Los Angeles. An event attended by Simu Liu, who plays one of the many Kens on screen alongside Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.

For the occasion, the 34-year-old actor wore a light blue Versace suit set over a white shirt open to his torso, as well as a pair of weathered green shoes. The Marvel star accessorized everything with a piece that certainly caught our attention: a harness. If Simu Liu is a regular at the Italian luxury house, this is the first time that he has accompanied one of his suits with such an accessory, the trend of which dates back to 2019.

A 2019 trend

It is to Virgil Abloh that we owe this skyrocketing rise of harnesses in men’s fashion.

Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS Wireless Headphone Review: Has Active Noise Canceling and Great Price


We tested the Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS wireless headset, the best headset from the manufacturer arrives with active noise cancellation and stands out for its excellent price

Currently, True Wireless wireless headphones are the most desired, but unfortunately, they are often expensive and do not always bring the expected quality for the price paid.

But Baseus wants to change that, the Chinese company bets on quality and low price to stand out in the market, something it has been achieving in different sectors.

design

It all starts with the design, it has a very interesting look, at the top it is oval to follow the shape of the ear, at the bottom, it is thin, which allows the perfect fit in the ear.

In this thinnest part, we have at the bottom, two metals that serve to charge the battery, going up a little, there is a small hole, it is the earphone LED, to indicate that it is ready to connect or it goes out to indicate that it is connected. or off, higher up we have the noise canceling microphone.

On the side of this same part, we find a digital design, there is the headphone control, it serves to pause, start the music, answer / hang up and reject calls, in addition to activating / deactivating noise cancellation and ambient mode.

Features and functions

Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS stands out in many points, it is equipped with dual-core DSP processor, noise reduction algorithm and active noise cancellation, the promise is to reduce up to 28dB, interestingly, the wireless headset will always start with ANC (Active Noise Canceling) allowing users to have sound without outside interference.

The ambient mode is very interesting, it will let you hear what is happening around you, so it is easier to hear the people and vehicles that are around you, but in very open areas and with a lot of wind, it should not be so efficient, as the sound of the wind can be heard easily.

There is no game mode, but it is not necessary, the connection is extremely fast at all times, so it is possible to have an excellent experience in shooting games and any other style.

The thinnest part of the headphone also hides the large antenna, which can receive high quality audio allowing a perfect signal in many situations, up to 10 meters away.

The headphones work independently, that is, they connect to the phone, so you can only use one to listen to music and leave the other charging.

The headphone touch control is very simple, as we said, it comes with active noise cancellation working by default, to turn off, press and hold the fingerprint part of the headphone for a little more than 1 second, you will hear a “Pi ”, which indicates that the ANC (active noise canceling has been turned off), if you hold it one more time, the ambient mode is active, one more time and you turn the ANC back on.

When listening to music, two taps start or stop the songs, three taps are for calling the voice assistant.

For calls, with two taps you answer or hang up the call, to reject the call just hold for two seconds.

Audio and microphone quality

Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS is equipped with a 10mm drive that features triple frequency balancing for a better audio experience.

Another important highlight is that the wireless headset supports SBC and AAC codecs, allowing users to select the best one for their device, or using the compatible one, normally, SBC is enabled by default on most phones, but AAC has higher quality, but your device must support this codec.

The sound is crystal clear, the bass is excellent, interestingly, even at maximum volume you will hardly hear noise, this means that the audio will be loud and clean, which is perfect for those who love music and audio in loud and clear and of course, with great quality.

The microphone is excellent, it captures the user’s voice very well, allowing you to answer calls and even make recordings in very good quality.

Drums

To try to save as much energy as possible, the Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS features Bluetooth 5.1 technology, which is more economical while bringing better connection and audio quality.

The headphones have a 40 mAh battery, the manufacturer says that the duration is 4.5 hours with ANC on and 5 hours with ANC off, with the volume at 70%.

In my tests, the headset supported 6 hours of music with ANC active, but with the volume at 50%, this is an impressive mark and not just any wireless headset has this differential.

The charging case has 380mAh, which brings 20 to 24 hours in total with the headphone volume at 70%.

On the Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS the case has a USB Type-C input and has wireless charging, with cable the full charge will finish in 1.5 hours, wireless will take 2 hours.

In the case we have an LED to indicate the battery charge, including the button on the back is for this check, up to 21% battery, the LED color is white, 20% or less the color changes to red, indicating that it needs to be charged .

When the wireless earbuds are in the case, it will flash white, when the light goes off, it indicates that the earbuds are fully charged and ready to be used to the fullest.

Is the Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS really worth it?

If you are looking for a quality headset, with the intention of listening to loud music and not having noise during audio playback at maximum volume, the Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS wireless headset is perfect for this task.

The battery life is excellent, even more so if you intend to listen to music at medium volume, and our tests got 6 hours with active ANC, but the manufacturer says it will last on average 4.5 or 5 hours at 70% volume and with ANC activated and deactivated respectively.

The phone has its problems like any other phone, I would say that something that can happen sometimes is it loses connection if you go too far (more than 10 meters), in which case it will try to connect automatically when you approach the phone and if not 5 minutes has passed (it turns off by itself if not plugged in), but the connection sometimes may take time, so it’s easier to put the earphone in the charging case, wait 10 seconds, turn off the phone’s Bluetooth, take the earphone out of the case and turn on Bluetooth again.

The ambient mode is very interesting, but in windy places, it can be a little annoying, as you will hear it clearly, so its use is important when you really need it or if you don’t mind the sound of the wind coming from time to time. .

Active noise cancellation is enabled by default which allows you to have an audio quality without external noises to disturb.

In addition to the USB Type-C input, the last differential of the wireless phone is having a case with wireless charging, bringing more convenience and possibilities to users.

Costing much less than its competitors that promise to bring the same quality and battery life, the Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS comes out ahead for having a much lower price and presenting differentials and high quality in what they propose, that is, it is cheaper , brings quality audio with active noise cancellation to every situation and even has wireless charging.

The Baseus Simu S1 Pro TWS is sold with the case in blue colors (phone is also blue) and in a color similar to a dark purple (black headset).

Remembering that there is the Baseus Simu S1 TWS model, which is sold with white and black cases, but it loses wireless charging for the case.
