For running enthusiasts, music is the best companion during workouts. Nowadays, people prefer lightweight, pressure-free, wireless headphones, making open-ear headphones increasingly popular. “Open-ear headphones” refer to headphones that allow you to listen to music without inserting anything into your ears, offering a more comfortable fit. If you’re on a budget and value cost-performance, consider trying the HOLME Olite open-ear headphones!
Design and Comfort
HOLME Olite open-ear headphones are built with a highly integrated precision structure for a compact design. They feature skin-friendly soft silicone with a 26° angled ergonomic design, combined with a hover-style ear hook, offering a lightweight and secure wearing experience that doesn’t fall off even during intense exercise.
The charging case has a premium texture and moderate size, with a well-executed design. Its oval-shaped flat box gives an upscale impression at first glance, with a rounded shape and a Type-C charging port and indicator light on the back.
Opening the charging case reveals the headphones, with L and R markings for left and right earbuds. The headphones are magnetically fixed and support auto-pairing when opened, making them very convenient. Unlike other brands, the HOLME Olite charging case includes a battery display for easy monitoring.
Sound Quality and Features
HOLME Olite headphones use polymer material with liquid silicone ear hooks. The skin-contact area is slightly concave for better ear support, while the silicone’s flexibility ensures a good fit for different ear sizes without tightness or discomfort, making them suitable for prolonged use.
The charging case uses a touch-point design with built-in magnets. The charging pins align perfectly with the headphone’s charging ports for stable charging.
Each earbud weighs only 6.8g, incredibly lightweight. With a 26° ergonomic curve, they remain stable even during intense activity. This design also minimizes pressure for eyeglass wearers, ensuring compatibility whether running or cycling while wearing glasses.
Noise Reduction and Connectivity
The headphones use touch controls with buttons and status indicators on both earbuds. Double-tap to answer/hang up calls or long-press to reject calls. The touch area has an indicator light for headphone status updates.
For hardware, they feature 14.2mm hexagonal graphene diaphragms, offering strong performance in structural stability and deformation capability. The graphene composite diaphragm has excellent rigidity and hardness, delivering a powerful soundstage, clear vocals, and rich bass, surpassing other similar headphones in sound quality.
Battery Life and Practical Use
They are designed with HD audio beamforming technology for directional sound transmission, reducing sound leakage while enhancing audio quality. This provides users with a broad sound space that feels like being at a live concert or cinema. They also support dual-device connection for seamless switching—ideal for multi-device users.
The open-ear design also offers strong noise reduction. With dual microphones and ENC smart noise cancellation, they can pick up voices clearly and filter out background noise. Whether outdoors, on public transport, or in a noisy mall, you can enjoy clear calls and smooth conversations.
HOLME Olite uses a high-performance Bluetooth 5.4 chip, enhancing transmission performance and resistance to interference. The headphones connect instantly and respond quickly, offering higher data transfer speeds, lower power consumption, and reduced latency. Whether gaming or watching movies, you can enjoy perfectly synchronized audio and visuals.
With a single charge, the earbuds provide up to 7 hours of playback, and the charging case extends the total usage to 28 hours. The IPX5 waterproof rating ensures worry-free use during workouts or in light rain.
