Our Verdict
The Mee X6 Plus are slightly better than average for mixed usage but have a really short battery life. They're stable enough for sports and sufficiently compact to have on you at all times and have a decent sound. Unfortunately, the short battery life will be a deal breaker for most, and they don't block as much noise as most in-ears which makes them less suitable to use in noisy environments or for commuting.
- Portable and stable design.
- Minimal leakage.
- Poor noise isolation.
- Subpar battery life.
- Mediocre-at-best build quality.
Average for neutral listening. The Mee Audio X6 Plus have a decent audio reproduction with a good balance of bass and midrange but the peaks in the high frequencies will sound a bit piercing, especially with tracks that are already a little bright. They also have closed-back, in-ear buds, which can't create a spacious soundstage. This means they won't be ideal for neutral listening but are sufficiently adequate for more casual use.
Average for commuting. The Mee X6 Plus do not block a lot of noise but since they do not leak much you can mask some of the ambient noise by turning the volume up. Also, they easily fit into most pockets and they're fairly easy to use.
The Mee audio X6 are good headphones for sports. They have a stable ear-hook design, they're breathable, wireless and compact enough to carry around on your person wherever you go. However, they won't be as comfortable for everyone since they have a pretty typical in-ear fit.
Decent for office use. The Mee Audio X6 Plus barely leak even at high volumes much but won't block the ambient noise of a loud office.
Sub-par for gaming. The Mee X6 Plus have a poor microphone performance, lack customization options typical for gaming headsets, and have a bit too much latency.
