You may not have heard of the Pamu brand before. Itโs a new company that focuses on affordable performance headphones with good design for the global market. And the first thing that attracts you to the Pamu Quiet Mini is its design.
Pamu Quiet Mini Headphones Review: Design
To be honest, with so many brands focused on bringing alternatives toย Airpodsย Apple, it's hard to differentiate between their products and Apple's own earbuds. So we're glad to have found Pamu, a brand that isn't simply copying Apple's design when it comes to wireless earbuds.
So, letโs start with its design. Looking at the Pamu Quiet, itโs pretty clear that the line focuses on delivering good active noise-cancelling performance with an identifiable design.
The charging case is a bit larger than other earbuds on the market, but thankfully, it has good build quality with excellent weight control. In fact, the charging case isnโt as fancy as the one we got for the standard version of the Pamu Quiet, but surprisingly, the mini has retained almost all the essential features of the standard version of the Quiet and even upgraded it with Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity and separate earbud connection.
Coming back to the charging case, as soon as we take out the buds, we can see that the mini also comes with an in-ear design, much like its competitors in the market. Each bud weighs only about 5g, which is barely noticeable when you wear them, even for a long period of time. In addition to the standard size, Pamu offers 2 more sizes for the ear tips. So, once you choose the right tip size, the earbuds will fit perfectly in your ears and ensure passive noise blocking. Another good detail is that the earbuds support IPX4 waterproofing, the same as the AirPods Pro. So, using them for a sweaty workout or on a rainy day is quite safe.
As for sound quality, the Quiet Mini delivers excellent sound output. Each mini earbud features a 10mm dynamic unit driver for enhanced bass depth and uses the Agile Pen Titanium composite diaphragm for good ductility. And in theory, the titanium metal is also capable of producing better sound quality at higher frequencies.
Pamu Quiet Mini Headphones Review: Sound Quality and Performance
Well, the bass is the most impressive sounding part of the Quiet Mini, which is some of the richest and deepest bass weโve ever heard from a wireless earbud. However, the high frequencies are a bit weaker than their performance at the low end. The buds still surprised us with good dynamic response and clear gradation across a wide frequency range. So overall, it achieves a bright and balanced vibe with good presentation of instruments, but it may not be as enjoyable when you focus on the vocals, especially when it comes to a high-pitched female voice. However, we felt that the rich bass exceeded our expectations and it also set the bar for the high frequencies. Overall, I still quite like the sound quality of the Quiet Mini.
