How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want a fun, see-through design with app-based controls and a low-latency Bluetooth 5.3 connection for everyday listening, choose Xmenha True; if you need active noise cancellation, a bigger charging case battery and the newer Bluetooth 5.4 chipset, choose RadioShack TWS Earbuds.
• Xmenha True — biggest strength: Transparent cyberpunk shell, 13 mm dynamic drivers, Bluetooth 5.3 with DSP anti-jamming, app-based noise control and a 4-hour-per-charge / 24-hour-with-case battery setup.
• Xmenha True — biggest trade-off: Its "noise cancelling" is sound isolation rather than true active noise cancellation, and the stated play time is 4 hours per charge (the description mentions up to 5 hours), so heavy all-day users will lean on the case.
• RadioShack TWS Earbuds — biggest strength: Real Active Noise Cancellation in the noise control field, a Bluetooth 5.4 Bluetrum AB5636F chipset for instant pairing, IPX5 water resistance and a 460 mAh charging case paired with 35 mAh earbud batteries.
• RadioShack TWS Earbuds — biggest trade-off: A plain, understated black/white plastic build with no app control mentioned and no bundled media in the box listing, so it's a function-first pick rather than a style pick.
• Who each is for: Go Xmenha True if you want a conversation-starting design plus app-tweakable sound; go RadioShack TWS Earbuds if quiet, stable, low-power listening matters more than looks.
The Xmenha True is built around personality. The enclosure and charging case are transparent plastic, so you can literally see the internal wiring through the shell — a cyberpunk-look choice that the brand leans into hard. If you like gear that looks like a prop from a sci-fi film, this is the earbud in this comparison that delivers that. The 13 mm dynamic drivers cover a 20 Hz–20,000 Hz range, and the tuning is described as deep bass with clear treble and a boosted midrange so vocals sit forward in the mix.
Who should buy it: anyone who wants a distinctive transparent design, app-based control over their sound, a wide Bluetooth range, and compatibility with iPhone, Android, iPad, Samsung and other Bluetooth devices. Who should skip it: commuters who specifically want active noise cancellation, or people who need more than a few hours per charge without reaching for the case.
RadioShack TWS Earbuds: Who It's For
The RadioShack TWS Earbuds take the opposite approach: less flash, more engineering. The headline feature is genuine Active Noise Cancellation, which is a different animal from the passive sound isolation in the Xmenha pair — it actively works against background noise rather than just blocking it physically. For a train commute, a noisy open-plan office or a flight, that's the feature that actually changes your day.
Under the hood it uses the Bluetrum AB5636F chipset with Bluetooth 5.4, the newest version in this comparison, and it's tuned for low power consumption. The battery split is 35 mAh in each earbud plus a 460 mAh charging case, which is a case-first design: the buds themselves are small, and the case carries the bulk of the reserve so you can top up repeatedly through the day. IPX5 water resistance covers sweat and splashes. The audio side is a dynamic driver with a 20 Hz–20,000 Hz range, 320 ohm impedance and 114 dB sensitivity. The finish is white plastic with a compact case — sleek, but deliberately understated.
Who should buy it: commuters, office workers and travellers who want active noise cancellation, the latest Bluetooth version, and a big case battery to keep them going. Who should skip it: anyone who wants a bold look, app-based EQ or who prefers a more decorative design over a utilitarian one.
• Best for active noise cancellation → RadioShack TWS Earbuds. ANC is listed directly in its noise control spec; the Xmenha pair relies on sound isolation instead.
• Best for design and personality → Xmenha True. Transparent shell and case, cyberpunk styling, and a look you won't blend into a crowd with.
• Best for the newest Bluetooth → RadioShack TWS Earbuds. Bluetooth 5.4 versus 5.3 on the Xmenha, with the low-power Bluetrum AB5636F chipset behind it.
• Best for total battery reserve → RadioShack TWS Earbuds. A 460 mAh case battery is a much larger reservoir than the Xmenha's 320 mAh case.
• Best for app-based control → Xmenha True. Its control method is listed as App, so you can adjust noise control from your phone rather than only through the buds.
• Best for water resistance → RadioShack TWS Earbuds, narrowly. IPX5 is the rating stated on both, so this is close, but the RadioShack sheet names IPX5 explicitly in the title.
• Best for driver size and bass presence → Xmenha True. A 13 mm dynamic driver is a large-diameter design aimed at deep bass and clear treble.
• Best for a plain, go-anywhere look → RadioShack TWS Earbuds. White plastic, compact, no visual statement — it just works.
In my opinion, the RadioShack TWS Earbuds are the better buy for most people. Active noise cancellation, Bluetooth 5.4, a 460 mAh case battery and IPX5 protection are the features that show up in daily use, and the low-power chipset means you're not babysitting the charger. I'd only steer you to the Xmenha True if the transparent cyberpunk look and app-based controls are exactly what you're after — in which case the 13 mm drivers and 24-hour case life make it a genuinely fun alternative. Either way, check the current price on Amazon before you commit, since the value call depends on what each is going for when you buy.

Turn on Bluetooth on your phone, tablet or laptop, then pick the earbuds from the available device list. Both pairs here use standard Bluetooth — 5.3 on the Xmenha True and 5.4 on the RadioShack — and both work with iPhone, Android, iPad and other Bluetooth-enabled devices.

Tap the earbud controls to play, pause, skip tracks and take calls. On the Xmenha True you can also adjust noise control through its app. Both pairs have a microphone for calls, and the Xmenha True uses dual HD mics with CVC8.0 noise reduction.
how to reset tws headphones
The usual method is to delete the earbuds from your phone's Bluetooth list, put both buds back in the case, then take them out again to re-enter pairing mode. If one bud doesn't connect, clear the old entry first so the buds pair to each other and to your phone fresh.
