Audio-wise, we’ve tested the Tempo 30 earbuds against our AirPods Pro, and they’re surprisingly powerful, with full, wide-ranging sound and clear, crisp details (no muffled tracks here). The audio is plenty loud too, and if you really want to turn it up, you can switch from Back Bay’s “Signature Sound” mode to their new “Bass Mode” for extra motivation.
We found the Tempo 30 Earbuds great for taking calls on the go too, thanks to their dual microphones. And with six(!) different fit options, it was easy to find a pair of eartips that stayed securely in our ears. Even while going on a run or hitting the treadmill at the gym, our Tempo 30 Earbuds stayed in our ears comfortably.
Back Bay Audio’s Tempo 30 Earbuds are one of the best AirPod alternatives on the market, beating Apple when it comes to battery life, waterproofing and price. The AirPods Pro do offer noise-cancelling technology, though if you just need a pair of everyday earbuds for music and calls, the Tempo 30 Wireless Earbuds will do just fine.
At just $35 here, they’re a whopping $150 cheaper than the AirPods’ current listed price too, so if you’re looking for a cheap AirPods alternative, it’s a no-brainer.
