Is spatialaudio a gimmick? Maybe. But with the 1More Aero you won't have to pay a fortune to find out.

1More Aero MSRP $110.00 Score Details DT Recommended Product “1More Aero gives you an affordable way to step into spatial.” Pros Cons Thanks to Apple’s efforts, a lot of folks now know about head-tracking spatial audio. Or at least they’ve heard about it. The jury is still out on whether it’s really the next big thing in music and movies or just a bit of techno-wizardry in search of an audience.

So it’s good that the 1More Aero are a capable set of earbuds when it comes to their other features because I wouldn’t want you to buy them just for their head-tracking spatial audio. 1More includes a new feature on the Aero that it calls Smart Loudness. In theory, you pick a volume level that you find comfortable, then adjust the Smart Loudness slider up or down until you hear a mix of bass, mids, and highs that you enjoy. From there, the system is supposed to keep that mix intact, regardless of how high or low you ride the volume after that.

The Aero support wireless charging, and Bluetooth multipoint, and the 1More Music app has those EQ presets plus manual settings I mentioned above, all of which the Comfobuds Pro lacked. The charging case is easier to open and the earbuds are much easier to grasp when you need them and replace you’re done.

Still, that annoyance aside, the 1More Aero do a really good job with ANC, considering their price. Sounds like traffic or the din of a noisy restaurant are reduced significantly. You also get an optional mode for handling wind, which also works well — it all but eliminated the wind I could hear in the normal ANC mode — but it drops the overall amount of noise being canceled. It’s a compromise, but one you won’t mind making when the air is moving past you briskly.
