Specifications of the SuperEQ Q2 Pro
earbuds
OneOdio is a Chinese audio equipment manufacturer based in Hong Kong. We talked about the Fusion A70 and OneOdio A30 ANC headphones in some previous review articles. But for convenience, today we look at an ANC wireless earbud from the company's sub-brands, SuperEQ, called Q2 Pro.
I've been using the Q2 Pro for a couple of weeks, and with the level of satisfaction I got from the A30 and Fusion A70, my expectations for the Q2 Pro were a bit high, seeing that it belongs to OneOdio. Fortunately, he did not let me down, at least, not in every aspect.

Quick Start Guide
SuperEQ Q2 Pro design and built quality
Obviously, the SuperEQ Q2 Pro comes with comprehensive plastic, but with some solid material options that make you feel otherwise. There is a magnetic element on both shoots, as well as inside each shell on the case. These magnetic elements help the buds adhere tightly to the charging connectors inside the case, when not in use.
The SuperEQ Q2 Pro has three LED notifications on the case, an on/off signal, as well as a charging notification (flicker white when charging the case and breathing blue when charging any of the speakers). The buds also have their own notification indicators (breathe white when connected, and flash blue during pairing).
The design is not something beyond the scope of this world, and while it does not have a traditional earbud format that fills your Incisura ear, it is still an earpiece; an audio device, and anyone who sees it will simply know it as such.
So instead of having the hanging look of a traditional wired earbud, the SuperEQ Q2 Pro rotates upwards inside the conch, thus wrapping it inside the atrium to prevent accidental falls. During walking and running tests, the bud did not fall off me.
As far as weight is concerned, the Q2 Pro is lighter than the Galaxy Buds Pro, weighing just 6 grams, instead of 6.3 grams on the Bud Pro. Although the weight turns to 48 grams with the case. Meanwhile, I still wish the bud was more compact. It actually looks a little larger, and it may seem very prominent to people with a smaller ear.
SuperEQ Q2 Pro modes, active noise cancellation and sound quality
The SuperEQ Q2 Pro comes with three different microphones that control sound modes. There are three different sound modes together. These include;
Ambient sound mode (transparency)
Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) mode
Put the sound in the stand.
of three microphones; one for noise cancellation, the second allows ambient sound, while the third microphone is for audio input.
While noise cancellation mode tries to block out background noise, ambient mode allows you to hear your surroundings, for example, help the conversation with a co-worker while the speakers are turned on. On the other hand, the standard mode turns off both ANC and ambient sound.
How good is ANC in SuperEQ Q2 Pro?
In my use, the ANC mode in the Q2 Pro blocks the ambient sounds to some extent, but it's not quite like sound annihilation. I can still hear almost all background sounds, only the background volume is low now when ANC is turned on, and I hear more output from inside the buds.
With pricing in mind, I'd say the Q2 Pro actually does a good job, especially considering the fact that some TWS earbuds sold even above the $100 mark, without ANC. For comparison, the OneOdio A30 ANC seems to do better in this suite, but this is a headset that sits over the ear, and the ear foam blocks a bunch of sounds by default.
One of the issues I had while trying the A30 was the fact that when ANC is on, I sometimes get echo from the slope of my foot, especially when walking fast or running. Fortunately, this was not the case in the Q2 Pro. Sometimes, you may get echo sounds from an external wind hitting an ANC microphone, but this only happens under fairly strong outside gusts of wind.
SuperEQ Q2 Pro sound quality
In terms of audio output and quality, the Q2 Pro is powered by a 12mm audio engine that is in line with industry standards. For example, no ear (1) has an 11.6mm drive while standard OnePlus Buds get 13.4mm bigger. On the other hand, the Galaxy Bud Pro has two speakers; a dedicated 11mm speaker and a 6.5mm speaker.
It is not worth anything that the size of the player means better sound. It is mainly used to determine how loud the sound can reach the speaker/headphone/earbuds, and to that end, the SuperEQ Q2 Pro is loud enough to withstand intense external noise.
As for the sound quality, I'm saying it clear and rich enough to get the money. It is not close to the best, but for cost, the quality is good. If you're a music lover, look no further than $100, but the SuperEQ Q2 Pro fits casual ears looking for affordability.
The SuperEQ Q2 Pro doesn't have its own app with which you can edit audio outputs and equalizers, but premium music apps like PowerAMP can help you bring richer sound to them.
SuperEQ Q2 Pro connection option and battery review
As for connectivity options, the Q2 Pro is powered by the latest Bluetooth 5.2 technology. Syncing with your phone is quick and simple.
How to connect the SuperEQ Q2 Pro to your smartphone, PC or smart TV
Whether it's a smartphone, PC or Smart TV, syncing the Q2 Pro with your device is very simple;
Make sure the bud box is charged, and the speakers are not out of battery.
First turn on the Bluetooth of your device (PC, smartphone or Smart TV)
Now push your Q2 Pro case open, it will work on the speakers automatically
Now select SuperEQ Q2 Pro from the device options available on your smartphone, PC or TV.
Important: If you are connecting to a computer, first make sure that your computer has the latest version of Bluetooth and drivers installed, otherwise you may not be able to connect to it unless one of the buds is close to the computer. This applies to all TWS and Earbuds to connect to PC via Bluetooth .
Cover distance and latency SuperEQ Q2 Pro
Don't confuse distance and latency when testing a device via Bluetooth. The distance is the distance between the two devices, where two devices can maintain the connection via Bluetooth, while latency determines how quickly events are received on the connected device.
For example, let's say you have Bluetooth headphones connected to your smart TV while sitting on the couch watching movies; distance is the distance you can reach away from the TV without disconnecting, while latency talks about how quickly the actions you watch on the TV reach the earrings.
I have no problem with SuperEQ's Q2 Pro when it comes to covering distance, I can leave the LG V60 on the counter, check who is on the gate without disconnecting. Latency isn't bad either, just some improvement is needed.
You won't notice any problem when listening to an audio file on the speakers. But when watching a movie, there is some small difference in milliseconds, between the playback time of the actions in the movie, and when the feedback reaches your ear. Another way to test this is to punch your smartphone dialer.
SuperEQ Q2 Pro recording and call reception quality
You will not be able to record directly via Bluetooth in your Android phone, except using a third-party app. Being not officially supported on Android but through the third part app, it means that the quality of the recorded audio will not depend entirely on SuperEQ. But just to give you an idea of the audio input in the Q2 Pro, here's an audio sample recorded on headphones via Bluetooth, which also summarizes how you expect callers to hear your voice when making or receiving calls with the Q2 Pro .
SuperEQ Q2 Pro battery review
Each Q2 Pro earbud has a 55mAh battery inside, while the charging case has 370mAh. The SuperEQ team says you can expect more than 7 hours of use with ANC and about 50% of volume. Sincerely, I didn't get 7 hours straight with the Q2 Pro, and as you already know, the case automatically refills the buds, so it was 100% beautiful throughout. But since the initial charge, I did not charge the case, and the battery was very powerful. And when you need to charge, USB Type-C is the interface, and the can refills very quickly.
Governance Review and Market Alternative
As I mentioned before, the SuperEQ Q2 Pro is definitely not for everyone. You shouldn't look for a TWS earbud under $60 if you're primarily a music lover. Maybe you should look for something like Nothing ear (1), or Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro for starters.
But for those on a tight budget, it can be a little difficult to get anything better than what the SuperEQ team offers for less than $60. Although I wish the latency, as well as the ANC was a little better, but there is a set of TWS earbuds, sold even above the $ 100 mark, but without ANC.
SuperEQ Q2 Pro availability and price
SuperEQ Q2 Pro is available in one black color. You can buy shoots on Amazon, or directly from the company's website, depending on your location. If you're in the US, you might prefer Amazon, but for other regions, I recommend using the company's website because it's a little cheaper, @$59. And you can also get 20% discount using GETQ2PRO discount code.
