Design and comfort
Let's start by saying that if you can't stand in-ear headphones, these SoundPeats Air4 Lite are the right model for you, as they adopt a semi-in-ear aesthetic, therefore their fit and comfort is guaranteed even for long hours. Although they do not have a rubber to act as a "glue" to the ear, stability is guaranteed, even for sporting activities, counting on an IPX4 certification and a weight of only 4 grams per single earphone.
The charging case is made of shiny plastic and this is the only flaw I found, as it is subject to retaining fingerprints and dirt in general as well as small scratches, but the construction is impeccable starting from the cover which also integrates the sensor hall for an immediate connection with the paired device.
On the front of the box we find an LED light that notifies us of the battery charge status and a button with which to query this but which, if necessary, allows you to reset the headphones to their factory state. In the lower part we find the Type-C input for charging via cable, the only way to recharge the headphones as there is no wireless charging, while note of merit goes to the sturdy zipper with the brand logo which features bronzed details, the same details that identify the entire SoundPeats lineup equipped with LDAC codec.
The earphones are also made of plastic but with a matte finish, giving a more premium feel than the charging box. The stem is not excessively long and therefore is not invasive on the face while on the external part of the drivers we find the touch surface through which to give commands.
Touch controls, connectivity and sound
The SoundPeats Air4 Lite as already mentioned offer complete touch controls, with which to manage music and calls, but it is also possible to call up the voice assistant of the associated device, adjust the volume and change music listening mode, also enjoying the ANC function . Despite the semi-in-ear design, the ergonomic construction of the earphones means that they sound almost on par with in-ear headphones, i.e. with a decidedly marked bass presence but without smudges or misalignments towards the medium-high tones.
In this regard, these headphones are Hi-Res Audio Wireless certified, a guarantee of audio quality, but they also enjoy LDAC codec with playback flow up to 990 kbps, all using a Bluetooth 5.3 chipset which also offers multipoint connectivity, which allows to pair the SoundPeats Air4 Lite with two devices simultaneously, listening to music on one and managing calls on the other for example.
Despite their small size, these earphones express themselves through 13 mm drivers capable of providing a captivating and engaging musical journey, but the quality is not relegated only to listening to music or podcasts but also to calls, as we find 6 microphones (3 per single earphone) which, using AI technology, are able to reduce noise in conversation, separating your voice from the context you are in, with excellent results, even if in strong headwinds the cancellation function is lost.
Furthermore, the earphones support a gaming mode with low latency of just 80 ms when active as well as support for frequencies ranging from 20 Hz to 40 KHz, therefore also ideal for gaming with titles where you need to hear every little audio detail .
Autonomy and companion APP
Our SoundPeats Air4 Lite offer a 330 mAh battery for the case and a 35 mAh unit for single earbuds, both with a charging time of approximately 1,5 hours. The only way to recharge the case is in wired form via Type-C, therefore wireless charging is absent, but the battery life is around 30 hours in total, equal to 7 hours of use on a single charge. Value destined to drop to around 4,5 hours if we use the LDAC codec, in any case decidedly excellent autonomy by virtue of the listening quality that these headphones give us. In any case, it is possible to use the individual earphones independently, effectively doubling the autonomy.
To manage some settings or to update the firmware, we find the SoundPeats app available for both Android and iOS devices. We have the possibility of activating an adaptive equalizer, i.e. defining a personalized listening threshold based on your hearing (low, medium, high frequency signals will be sent which you will have to understand and if necessary answer yes or no to what is requested), but we can You can also choose from some presets or create your own equalizer. We can activate gaming mode, check battery levels and activate/deactivate touch controls, which can come in handy in some cases.

Conclusion and price
The SoundPeats Air4 Lite wireless earphones are a great choice for those looking for high-quality sound, reliable connectivity and advanced features at an affordable price. They're ideal for those who want top-notch performance and versatility whose only compromise is the lack of true ANC noise cancellation or transparency mode. Overall I was really impressed because at the current selling price, less than 42 euros with the discount coupon redeemable on the Amazon purchase page, they are among the best headphones with a quality/price ratio that you can find.
