Design and Controls
The HRX X-Pulse 4S has an Ear Grip mechanism that allows the headphone to stay and fit properly in the ear. The earpiece of the earphone is relatively large in size and needs a few adjustments to fit in the ear. Except that, there are power and volume control switches placed near the right earpiece. A mini LED indicator is there to indicate the power on/off signal. There is a wire adjusting clip with which you can adjust the length of the wire at back. There is a micro-USB port to charge this earphone.
Now coming to the controls, you get a separate volume up and volume down button with a power button in the middle. To power, on the device, you have to place and hold the power button for less than five seconds and you will hear power on audio and the LED lights will start blinking blue and red. The volume up and down buttons can also be used to change music by just pressing the up button to go to the next music and the down button will lead you to the previous song.

Comfort and Usage
To say honestly the ear grip design is not at all helpful because the ear grip is just very soft to stay in its place. The wires are very thin and the whole earphone seems to have a very cheap built quality at a very first impression. The plus point in this earphone is that it is IPX5 water-resistant and sweat resistant as well. It is perfect while working out as the sweats won’t matter even if the earphone is on.
This HRX X-Pulse 4S earphone takes almost a little more than 2 hours to charge fully from 0 to 100 percent. The exact playback time of this earphone is around somewhere around 7 to 7.5 hours on an average. The run time is mentioned 8 hours and it only stays for that time if it’s kept idle just after pairing with a device. On average if you play any song at full volume it lasts a little more than 6 hours or 6.5 hours to be exact.
It gives a very slight delay while playing online games which can be overlooked but it is not at all comfortable while playing games or listening to music for a long time. this earphone gives a voice indication while powering on as well as powering off (when charge remains), pairing device, and battery low.
Audio Quality
The audio quality of the HRX X-Pulse 4S Bluetooth earphone is moderate. The highs are very high pitched while the lows are not up to the mark. When the volume is 100% the sound has a high pitch effect. The 16 Ohm impedance is quite good as the sound goes very high when at 100%.
