They have an excited, V-shaped sound profile that adds an extra boom and punch to keep you motivated during your workout. Unfortunately, they don't really block out bass-heavy sounds like bus or plane engines, and they don't have a lot of customization options.

Our Verdict
The Tranya T10 earbuds are alright for mixed usage. Their portable, stable design makes them suitable to wear during your workouts. They have a nine-hour continuous battery life, and their portable charging case makes it easy to bring them on-the-go. While they can isolate against voices and other sharp sounds, they struggle to block out the sound of bus or plane engines, so they may not be the best choice for commuting and traveling. Also, their excited sound profile isn't ideal for neutral sound.
- Portable design.
- IPX7 rating for waterproofing.
- 9-hour continuous battery life.
- Not comfortable for all users.
- Don't really isolate against bass-heavy sounds.
The Tranya T10 earbuds are middling for neutral sound. They have an excited, V-shaped sound profile with a boomy, punchy bass that may be overwhelming for some listeners. Their mid-range is quite balanced, however, so vocals and lead instruments are still clear and preset in the mix. There are also two different EQ presets available: 'Normal' and 'Bass Boost'. The 'Bass Boost' is the default sound profile, but it performs pretty similarly to the 'Normal' preset.
- Two EQ presets available.
- Closed-off soundstage.
- Boomy, muddy bass.

Test Results
The Tranya T10 are fairly standard-looking truly wireless earbuds. They're made of matte black plastic, and they protrude a bit from the ear like the Anker Soundcore Life Dot 2 Truly Wireless.
These headphones are decently comfortable. They're lightweight, and they don't put too much pressure on the ears. Thanks to their touch-sensitive controls, you don't have to push them further into your ear to register commands. However, they sit deep in your ears and they're a bit bulky, so they may not be comfortable for everyone.
These headphones have okay controls. Both buds are touch-sensitive, and you can adjust the volume, skip tracks, and change the EQ setting by tapping either earbud. You can also power the buds on/off and pair them by holding down on either bud. While there's a lot of feedback, including voice prompts and beeps, the control scheme isn't the most intuitive and it may take you some time to get used to it.
The Tranya T10 earbuds are very portable. Their truly wireless design is very small and compact, so you can easily carry them in your pocket or a bag. There's even a charging case that's easy to bring on-the-go.
These headphones have a good charging case. It's sturdy and solid and seems like it could protect the headphones from accidental bumps and falls. Four LED lights indicate the case's battery life, which is convenient. You can charge the case with a USB-C charging cable or wirelessly.
The Tranya T10 earbuds have a good build quality. They're mostly made of plastic, which seems solid and durable. They're also rated IPX7 for waterproofing, but we don't test for this. On the downside, the silicone ear tips are a potential weak link, as they seem like they could tear.
These headphones are pretty stable. They should stay in your ears during moderately intense workouts. Unfortunately, they don't have stability fins.
The Tranya T10 have a slightly excited, V-shaped sound profile. It has extra thump and punch in the bass range and a bright treble response that can sound a bit piercing. There are two EQ presets available: 'Bass Boost' and 'Normal'.
The Tranya T10 have a great frequency response consistency. Their bass and treble delivery are a bit inconsistent depending on their fit, seal, and positioning on your ear.
These headphones have poor bass accuracy. While the entire range is quite flat and balanced, it's also overemphasized, resulting in a thumpy, punchy sound. Fans of bass-heavy genres like EDM may appreciate the extra boom, but other listeners may find it overwhelming.
The Tranya T10 have good mid accuracy. There's a slight overemphasis in the low-mid, which can add a muddy quality to the mix, while the balanced mid-mids makes vocals and lead instruments clear and present. The overemphasis in the high-mid can make those same frequencies a bit honky and harsh.
These headphones have mediocre treble accuracy. Low-treble is overemphasized, which can make instruments sound harsh and painful. The underemphasis in the low-treble makes sibilants like cymbals dull and lispy.
The Tranya T10 have fair peaks and dips performance. The peak in the high bass adds extra boominess. The dip in the mid-mids pushes vocals and lead instruments towards the back of the mix, while the peaks in the high-mid and low-treble can make those same instruments harsh and painful. The dip in the mid-treble makes sibilants like cymbals dull and lispy.
The Tranya T10 have a fantastic imaging performance. Weighted group delay falls below the audibility threshold, resulting in a tight bass and transparent treble. The L/R drivers of our unit are well-matched in amplitude, frequency, and phase response. As a result, objects like voices and instruments are accurately localized within the stereo image. However, these results are only valid for our test unit, so your experience may vary.
The Tranya T10 have a terrible passive soundstage, which is typical for in-ear headphones. By design, they don't interact with the outer ear, which is one of the key factors in creating an immersive, speaker-like soundstage. Sound is perceived as coming from inside your head, rather than all around you.
These headphones don't have a virtual soundstage feature.
The Tranya T10 earbuds have a very good weighted harmonic distortion performance. There's a small spike in the treble range, but it shouldn't be too noticeable. Their audio reproduction is clean and pure.
These are the settings we used to test these headphones. The default EQ setting is the 'Bass Boost 'EQ, and as you can see here, it doesn't perform much differently from the 'Normal' EQ. Our results are only valid when using these settings.
The Tranya T10 earbuds have adequate noise isolation performance. They struggle to block out bass-heavy sounds like bus and plane engines. Fortunately, they do a much better job blocking out higher-frequency sounds like voices and AC units.
The Tranya T10 earbuds have outstanding leakage performance. They leak very little sound, so you can turn up the volume on your favorite music without bothering the people around you, even in a relatively quiet environment.
These headphones have an integrated microphone.
The microphone has a fair recording quality. Your voice should be clearly understood and sound fairly natural, but also a bit thin.
The microphone is middling for noise handling. It struggles to separate your voice from background noises, even in moderately noisy environments like a busy street.
These headphones have very good battery performance. Their 9-hour continuous battery life should be enough to get you through your work day, and their portable charging case offers around three extra charges for when you're on-the-go. There's even an auto-off timer to help you conserve battery life when the buds aren't in use. You can also listen to audio through one earbud while the other charges, but you won't be able to use the controls unless you're wearing both buds.
The Tranya T10 earbuds don't have a companion app.
These headphones are Bluetooth 5.0-compatible, but they don't support NFC or multi-device pairing. Their latency on PCs is too high for gaming or streaming movies. They perform a bit better on iOS devices, but their latency is still a bit high for mobile gaming. They have low latency with Android devices. However, some apps compensate for latency, so your experience may vary.
These headphones are Bluetooth-only.
These headphones can't be used wired. They come with a USB-C cable, which can be used to recharge their case.
The Tranya T10 are compatible with Bluetooth-enabled PCs, but their latency is too high to make them suitable for gaming. They aren't compatible with PS4 consoles.
