SOUNDPEATS has added another pair of true wireless earbuds to its lineup—the Air5 Pro+. It follows the release of the Air5 Pro earlier this year, but brings some pretty substantial upgrades under the hood. The new model features a hybrid driver setup with xMEMS technology, supports a wide range of high-resolution audio codecs, and introduces more advanced noise cancellation that adapts in real time. It’s priced at $129.99, though you can grab it for $103.99 during the Black Friday sale.
The Air5 Pro+ uses a dual-driver design that mixes old and new tech to cover more ground sonically. For mids and highs, it includes an xMEMS “Cowell” solid-state speaker—yes, an actual microelectromechanical speaker—powered by a specialized Class-H amplifier. This setup is all about fast, accurate response with less distortion, which should come in handy for things like vocals or acoustic details.
Then there's the bass. That comes from a more familiar 10mm dynamic driver, built with a dual copper coil and a PU+PEEK diaphragm. It’s designed to bring in the low-end punch without muddying up the rest of the mix. By combining these two types of drivers, SOUNDPEATS is aiming for a more balanced, full-range sound—without leaning too hard on one end of the spectrum.
One of the Air5 Pro+’s strong suits is its wide support for high-res Bluetooth codecs. It runs on Qualcomm’s QCC3091 chip and supports:
Basically, if your phone supports it, chances are these earbuds will make the most of it.
The Air5 Pro+ doesn’t just block noise—it tries to adjust how it blocks noise depending on how you're wearing it and what's going on around you. Using a mix of feedforward and feedback microphones, it constantly monitors fit and environment, and it tweaks ANC levels automatically. SOUNDPEATS claims this setup can reduce up to 55dB of ambient sound, with high accuracy in noise detection and minimal errors.
In real-life terms, this could mean the earbuds block out subway rumble, fan noise, or background chatter a bit more effectively—without you needing to fiddle with settings.
You’ll get around 6 hours of playback per charge (at moderate volume with AAC), with the charging case bringing the total to around 30 hours. If you’re running low, a 10-minute quick charge gets you about 2 hours of listening time. It’s not the longest battery life out there, but it should hold up fine for most daily routines.
The Air5 Pro+ supports Bluetooth multipoint, which means you can connect to two devices—like your phone and your laptop—at the same time. If a call comes in while you’re watching a video on your laptop, the earbuds automatically switch over. It’s a handy feature if you’re constantly jumping between work and personal devices.
The companion PeatsAudio app (available on iOS and Android) gives you a decent amount of control:
So if the out-of-box sound doesn’t suit your taste, there’s room to shape it.
The SOUNDPEATS Air5 Pro+ is now available for $129.99, with a limited-time Black Friday deal knocking it down to $103.99 on Amazon. That puts it in the midrange for true wireless earbuds—but with features that usually show up in more expensive models.
The Air5 Pro+ brings together some interesting components: a hybrid driver design using MEMS tech, smarter ANC, and support for all the popular hi-res codecs. Whether that all adds up to a better listening experience will depend on how it performs day to day, but it’s clear SOUNDPEATS is experimenting with ways to stand out, without going full luxury price tag. For those looking to upgrade from a basic pair of earbuds or try out some of the newer tech in wireless audio, the Air5 Pro+ could be one to watch.
