The verdict

The RHA TrueConnect may be a bit old, but they aren't outdated. These IPX5 earbuds operate via Bluetooth 5.0 and feature a remarkably comfortable fit. The earbuds look as great today as they did in 2018, have great passive isolation, and are an excellent choice for the bargain shopper.
