PlayGo T44 review: Sound true wireless stereo earphones on a budget
The PlayGo T44 is a pair of affordable true wireless stereo (TWS)
earphones imported from China by Play, an Indian lifestyle products brand.
Priced at Rs 2,999, these earphones have semi in-ear earbuds with stems, a
design made popular by the Apple
AirPods (review). These, however, do not look
anything like the AirPods (and that is a good thing).
As
for performance, the earphones are tuned for a neutral output and they seem
best suited for music tracks where emphasis is on acoustics and not vocals.
Interestingly, the earphones are one of the few in the budget segment that are
not bass-heavy. Unfortunately, there is no way to tune or customise the output
for lack of an app support. Moreover, the equaliser settings on connected
devices (smartphone, laptop or tablet) sometimes distort the audio output, so
it is best to use them as is.
The PlayGo T44 supports audio sub-band codec (SBC) and advance audio codec
(AAC). They have Bluetooth 5.0 for connectivity, and they work great even if
the connected device is at a distance (up to 10 metres). Moreover, you can use
just one of the earbuds if you like. The earbuds support touch control, which
is a good addition. These controls, however, are somewhat confusing; press and
hold on either of the earbuds to reject a call and double tap to answer, double
tap on either of the earbuds to play and pause an audio track, and press and
hold on either of the earbuds to change the audio track.
