The verdict

The Creative Outlier Gold is a bump up from the company’s Outlier Air true wireless earbuds. These earbuds have exceptional battery life and reproduce seemingly realistic sound, with a similar effect as 3D audio. If you don’t mind last year’s form factor and want a great pair of value true wireless earbuds, Creative is a hard company to outshine.

✓Liked: Super X-Fi holographic audio, Bluetooth 5.0, aptX and AAC, Battery life, IPX5

✕Could be better: Mic quality, Slippery build, Limited Super X-Fi functionality
