Introduction

The Baseus Encok H19 (NGH19-03) wired earphones promise a captivating 6D surround sound experience at an affordable price point. I’ve been using these earphones for several weeks across various devices, and this review details my findings, covering sound quality, comfort, build, and overall value.

Features

The Baseus Encok H19 boasts several key features designed to enhance the listening experience. The 14mm large moving coils and six sound quality adjustment holes contribute to the advertised 6D surround sound. The inclusion of MEMS microphones ensures clear call quality, while the anti-winding TPE wire adds durability and prevents annoying tangles. The lateral in-ear design aims for a secure and comfortable fit, even during extended use. Compatibility extends to a wide range of devices, including iPhones, Android phones, Macs, PCs, and gaming consoles.

Performance

Sound quality is surprisingly good for earphones in this price range. The 6D surround sound effect, while not truly spatial audio, provides a wider and more immersive soundscape than many comparable models. Bass response is reasonably deep and punchy, without overpowering the mids and highs. Highs are clear and crisp, though occasionally a bit bright at higher volumes. The microphones performed consistently well during calls, with my voice coming across clearly, even in moderately noisy environments. Noise isolation is decent, effectively blocking out some ambient sounds, but not completely eliminating them. The comfort level is largely positive, with the ear tips providing a secure fit. However, prolonged use (over 2 hours) might lead to some slight discomfort for some users.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Good sound quality for the price, comfortable fit for most users, durable cable, decent microphone quality, wide device compatibility.
• Cons: Highs can be slightly bright at higher volumes, not complete noise isolation, potential for slight discomfort after extended use.

Final Verdict

The Baseus Encok H19 (NGH19-03) offers excellent value for money. The 6D surround sound, along with its robust build and decent microphone quality, makes it a solid choice for everyday use. While not perfect, the minor drawbacks are easily overshadowed by the overall positive listening experience and functionality. I would recommend these earphones to anyone looking for an affordable and reliable pair of wired earphones with enhanced sound quality.
