The MoveBuds H1 are Tribit’s true wireless earphones. They stand out for two reasons: they are waterproof IPX8 and can last for 15 hours on a single charge. If they didn’t sound good, neither of these things would matter. Luckily, we also like their strong sound and deep bass. Still, the charging case that comes with it is huge, and testing showed that the EQ in the app was a bit glitchy.

Where to get Tribit MoveBuds H1 Wireless Earbuds?
Earbuds with earhooks will naturally take up more space, which is why the case is so big. Could you put it in your pocket? Yes, but not like most others, which is why I think the MoveBuds H1 will spend just as much time in a gym bag as in a pocket. The earbuds are protected from water and sweat by IPX8, so you can play around with their durability. You could wear them in the pool if you wanted to listen to music or take a call, but they’re not made for swimming. If you’re going to put them in salt water, make sure to rinse them with fresh water and dry them off. The case itself doesn’t have this kind of protection, so don’t let it get wet.
The first panel told people to download the Tribit app, listed what was in the box, and showed how to turn the device on and off by opening and closing the lid. The second panel explained how to pair a Bluetooth device and how to wear it. The third panel showed how to use and change the ear tips and talked about how the buttons work. I liked how this panel was set up and how you could see how each of the Tribit wireless earbuds worked with just one click.
You can answer a call or play/pause music by pressing either earbud once. If you double-click the left earbud, you can end a call or go back a track. Using the right earbud, you can skip to the next song or end a phone call. If you triple-click the left earbud, Siri will come on. If you triple-click the right earbud, the ambient mode will come on.
When you hold the left earbud, the volume goes down or you can reject a call. When you hold the right earbud, the volume goes up or you can reject a call. If you hold one of the Tribit wireless earbuds in your ear for six seconds, the other one will turn off. If you keep one of the Tribit wireless earbuds in your ear for more than 10 seconds, they will both turn off.
The MoveBuds H1 have Bluetooth version 5.2, which lets you play music. Both AAC and Apt-X codecs are built in, so both iOS and Android users get the best digital sound quality possible. The battery should be able to play music for up to 15 hours before it needs to be charged again.
The company that makes it says that, with charging in the case, it can play music for a total of 65 hours. That would be an all-time high. But this means that the case is the size of a record, and each earbud is stored on the opposite side. This doesn’t make sense or feel very good. Since the MoveBuds H1 might not need to be charged very often, it has four LEDs that show in detail how full the battery is. Also, the case is not waterproof on its own.
