Black Shark Wireless Earbuds Wireless Headphones with 45ms Ultra-low Latency, Gaming Earbuds with Bluetooth 5.2, Dual Modes, 10mm Driver, 35H Playtime, IPX4 Waterproof, Built-in Mic - Lucifer T1

Product Information

The earbuds have a very compact design and ergonomic shape which I’ll discuss further below. The earbuds include three sizes of silicone tips. As someone with large ear canals, I’d have preferred them to have perhaps a fourth, larger set of earbuds. I’ll talk more about the fit of the earbuds a bit further down in this review. I personally liked the game mode mode for audio as well as gaming. The good news is you have both to choose from and you get to choose. This is helped by the presence of pop-up physical triggers along the right edge of the phone, which can be assigned a function for your game, to turn your smartphone into a device that more resembles a gaming controller. This setup delivers quite an advantage in games. My first impression of this earbud set was that it felt a bit fragile. As in, if I dropped the case from any appreciable height, it would shatter. However, throughout the review period, I did drop them a couple of times and was relieved to find that they remained intact. I’d love to see someone do an aftermarket ear foam tip but the silicon to seal and provide some passive noise isolation. What are they missing?

The headphones are fitted with 10mm diameter dynamic drivers, more extensive than other similar headphones. The Bluetooth connection is relatively stable, and I have not had cuts or interference at reasonable distances. The maximum range of these BS-T1s is medium, they allow me to move a couple of rooms away from my computer, but when I get to the kitchen, I lose signal (like most similar headphones).

Great for competitive gamers, but with a few rough edges

Bluetooth 5.2: With Bluetooth 5.2 the Lucifer T1 Bluetooth earphones give a very solid connection even when you might be surrounded by competiting fequencies. This means your connection to your device is solid and won’t break or drop, even when you’re in busy cafes, trains, gaming halls or planes. The length of the buds is really nice and I’d say while not as comfortable as my AirPod Pros they are super light and will be comfortable for long listening sessions or gaming sessions.
