You won’t find much sleeker in-ear phones than the MW07

New from leading American audio maker Master & Dynamic come the MW07, true wireless in-ear headphones that look sleek and have impressive sound quality.
The earphones boast a handcrafted acetate body and Master & Dynamic says the MW07 are the world’s first in-ear truly wireless earphones created in acetate housings.
The handcrafted acetate has an exquisite pattern on both earbuds, which are stored in a polished aluminium case that reflects their premium look.
The MW07 comes with a hand-polished stainless steel charging case complete with LED lights to show both the battery level of the case and each earphone.

The earbuds hold 3.5 hours of listening time when fully charged. The charging case has an additional three full charges for the earphones, which should be placed inside the case when they are not in use to ensure they are charged to the fullest each time you start using them. With the case, the MW07 provides 14 hours total listening time.
The earbuds take 1.5 hours of charge time for full charge or 45 minutes of charge time for 1.5 hours of playtime. It takes 15 minutes to charge 40 per cent of the carrying case’s battery capacity or 40 minutes to fully charge the case.
When you take the MW07 out of the charging case for the first use, it will be automatically ready for pairing with your smartphone. Next time you remove them from the case, the earphones will be automatically linked to the smartphone.
The earphones also come with optical sensors that detect in-ear placement to automatically play and pause the music when you remove them from your ears and re-insert them.
The package comes with five pairs of ear tips - XS, S, M, L, and XL, allowing you to select the ones that best fit your ear canals. Two sizes of fit wings - S and L - are also provided to secure the ear placement in case you use the phones while jogging or during other forms of exercise.
MW07 conforms to the IPX4 splash proof rating so you can wear the earphones for exercising as they are designed with sweat and moisture protection.
At just 9 grammes each, I found the MW07 phones were comfortable to wear for hours on end.

The MW07 uses Bluetooth 4.2 connection with aptX streaming protocol. I found during my test that when properly seated in m ear canals, the earphones reproduced impressively good sound quality for in-ear type earphones. The mids and highs were outstanding and the bass deep enough to enjoy rock music.
The right earpiece of the MW07 has multi-function button on the top that is used for controlling the music. You pause the button once to pause the music and again to resume. To answer an incoming call, touch the right earbud button then touch it again to hang up.

While playing music, you can press the button twice to skip to the next track and press it three times to skip back to the previous track.
When the earbuds are in, you can press the multi-function button and hold it to activate your voice assistance. Press and hold it while the right earbud is out of your ear to activate pairing.
There are also volume up and down buttons on the top of the left earbud.
Master & Dynamic MW07 is available in Grey Terrazzo, Tortoiseshell, Steel Blue and Matte Black, for Bt11,900 at Munkong Gadget, Studio 7 by Com7, iStudio by CPW, DotLife, Sound Proof, Lazada, Shopee and Mercular.
