How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want touch-screen control without touching your phone, choose Xmenha Touch Screen TWS; if you need one wearable that doubles as a watch, a fitness tracker and a pair of earbuds, choose Tuanzi D8Pro.
• Xmenha Touch Screen TWS — biggest strength: a smart charging case with its own touch screen, so you can change volume, sound modes, battery levels, the clock and alarms straight from the case. Open-ear, silicone, clip-style fit aimed at small or comfort-sensitive ears.
• Xmenha Touch Screen TWS — biggest trade-off: single-purpose audio. No watch, no fitness tracking, and the play-time figures in the spec sheet (5 hours per charge, 30 hours total with the case) are modest next to a phone-plus-watch setup.
• Tuanzi D8Pro — biggest strength: three devices in one — a 2.01-inch TFT smartwatch, a pair of TWS earbuds and a speaker, with heart rate and sleep monitoring, 100+ exercise modes and NFC.
• Tuanzi D8Pro — biggest trade-off: it's a watch first, earbuds second. The buds hold tiny 28mAh batteries with 4–5 hours of music time, and they live inside the watch body rather than a dedicated audio case.
• Who each pick is for: Xmenha if audio comfort and case-side control matter most; Tuanzi if you'd rather carry one gadget and get tracking, calls and music together.
The headline feature here is unusual at any price: the charging case itself has a touch screen. From that little panel you can adjust volume, switch sound-effect modes, check the battery level of each earbud and the case, read the time and set alarms — all without pulling your phone out. If you've ever fumbled for your phone mid-run just to skip a track or nudge the volume, that's the exact annoyance this design targets.
The fit is the other half of the story. These are open-ear earbuds with an ear-clip design, built from soft silicone and deliberately sized for smaller ear canals. Nothing gets pushed into your ear canal, which is the whole point: no plugging, no pressure, comfortable for long stretches. The spec sheet calls out ergonomic surround and a streamlined sinking shape, plus sweatproofing for daily sweat and rain. For running, gym sessions, jumping and general outdoor movement, the clip is meant to keep them stable rather than relying on a seal.
Tuanzi D8Pro: Who It's For
The D8Pro is a different animal entirely: a 2.01-inch rectangular TFT touchscreen watch with a stainless-steel case and a steel strap (a silicone strap and extra silicone case are also included), and a pair of TWS earbuds that dock inside the watch body. It runs on Bluetooth 5.3, pairs with iOS 12+, Android 7.0+ and HarmonyOS 3+ through an app, and the watch battery is a 240mAh polymer cell rated for roughly 15 days of use — enough to recharge the 28mAh earbuds two to three times over.
As a tracker it's busy in a good way: heart rate and sleep monitoring, step count, distance and calories, a long list of indoor workouts (plank, yoga, jump rope, indoor cycling and more) and outdoor ones (walking, running, cycling, badminton, basketball, football, mountaineering). Add Bluetooth dial-up calling, message and call reminders, sedentary and hydration nudges, weather, breathing training, an alarm, stopwatch, timer, calculator, calendar, NFC, shake-to-photo, raise-wrist-to-wake and phone-finding. The earbuds answer and hang up with a single tap, skip tracks with a double tap and handle volume with a long press.
The honest trade-off is audio stamina. Those earbuds are small by necessity, so music time lands at 4–5 hours and they charge magnetically from the watch in about 1–2 hours. That's fine for commutes, calls, workouts and podcasts, less fine for an all-day listening marathon. Buy it if you want a watch, a tracker and a set of buds in one package and don't mind audio taking second billing. Skip it if your priority is pure sound quality or long continuous listening.
Side-by-Side: Which Should You Choose?
• Best for case-side control → Xmenha Touch Screen TWS. Volume, sound modes, battery readouts, clock and alarms all live on the charging case screen.
• Best for all-in-one carry → Tuanzi D8Pro. Watch, tracker, speaker and earbuds in a single device.
• Best for fitness and health data → Tuanzi D8Pro. Heart rate, sleep, steps, calories and a long exercise list.
• Best for long music sessions → Xmenha Touch Screen TWS. 5 hours per charge and 30 hours with the case versus 4–5 hours of music time on the D8Pro buds.
• Best for everyday notifications → Tuanzi D8Pro. Calls, messages, sedentary and hydration reminders and weather on your wrist.
• Best for a sealed, private listen → neither, strictly speaking. Both lean towards letting the outside world in, one by open-ear design and the other by small in-ear buds.
• Best for a phone-free walk or run → Tuanzi D8Pro. Bluetooth dial-up calling plus music control, no phone in hand required.
In my opinion, most people shopping cheap TWS earbuds should start with the Xmenha Touch Screen TWS. It does one job — comfortable, open-ear listening — and adds a genuinely useful twist with the touch-screen case, so you're not constantly reaching for your phone. The Tuanzi D8Pro is the better buy only if you actively want a smartwatch, and you're willing to accept shorter music time on the buds in exchange for tracking, notifications and calls on your wrist. Decide which of those two you actually are, then check the current price on Amazon before you commit.
TWS stands for "true wireless stereo" — two earbuds with no wire between them, each with its own connection to your phone. Both products here are TWS: the Xmenha as a standalone pair, the Tuanzi D8Pro as earbuds that store and charge inside a smartwatch.
It means the buds run on their own small batteries, so play time matters more than in wired models. The Xmenha lists 5 hours per charge and 30 hours with its 400mAh case; the D8Pro buds list 4–5 hours of music time from 28mAh cells topped up by the watch.
It varies a lot with features — a plain pair, a pair with a smart case, and a watch-plus-buds combo all sit in different places. I don't quote prices here because they change; use the price button on this page for the current figure on Amazon.
Pair over Bluetooth: the Xmenha uses Bluetooth 5.4 with about 10 metres of range, controlled by touch on the buds and the case screen. The D8Pro uses Bluetooth 5.3 and pairs alongside its app, with taps on the buds for play, pause, calls and volume.
