Build quality

It has a calm, luxurious, and functional design that is typical of B&O.

The build quality meets the standard of the price. The charging case is smooth to open and close with little wobble in the lid.

Fit

The earphone itself is a bit large, but it also has ear fins, so the fit is not bad.

Connection quality

I tested it by connecting it to a Cayin N6II/E02 with AAC. The quality of the connection is excellent for the price range. I haven't been in crowded places, so I don't know, but it's stable in the home. Distance tolerance is excellent, and the connection is seamless and intact even at a distance of about 5 meters. The music plays without any problems, even when interrupted by obstructions, and there are no interruptions.

The white noise is a bit noticeable, but it doesn't bother me during music playback.

Sound quality

Sound quality description

The Bang & Olfsen E8 Sport is an earphone that emphasizes staging in the midrange and gives a three-dimensional sound with a sense of depth. The midrange tends to sound a little thin and digital in texture, but the beauty is that the resolution is high.

The following review was tested on a FiiO M15 with an aptX connection.

The resolution is impressive, the space is clear, and you can enjoy your music with great detail. The sound quality is appealing, but the price is a bit on the strong side, making it a bit tough to beat in terms of cost performance.
