Lights indicate the charging status of both things. When fully charged, the earbuds will last for around 4.5 hours and the case enables 16 hours of battery life when fully charged.
To switch on the earbuds, just twist the case and remove the earbuds. There is also a manual option too if needed.
Pairing the earbuds with your device is simple. Just take them out of the case and connected up to your device. If for whatever reason that doesn’t work you can manually pair them too, but I didn’t have any issues.
If you to play games with low latency, then you can using 2.4GHz Bluetooth with the supplied USB-C Dongle and connect that way.
You can control pretty much everything from the earbuds themselves, including the volume, answering calls and skipping music tracks – you can of course control it all from your device as well if you wanted to.
The earbuds feel very comfortable, including for long periods of time. If the fitting isn’t quite right for your ears, there are spare tips included in the box.
With simultaneous dual-mode connectivity you can have the earbuds connecting to both your phone and a separate gaming device so you can play games and take calls at the same time!
The sound quality if fantastic – whether you are listening to music or you are playing Call of Duty, the Hi-Res Audio is really powerful and it makes you feel like you are right there, either in the audience of a concert or on the battlefield listening to footsteps coming up behind you!
There is even a small carry pouch for you to carry around the GX05 if you dont want to carry the box around with you. The case is very lightweight so you wont really notice you are even carrying it.
If you are on the lookout for a fantastic sounding set of wireless earbuds for music and gaming, plus you want something that looks out of this world, then look and listen no further that the GX05, you won’t be disappointed.
