The only widely known earphones model by MOAOL is M850. After hearing some good feedbacks about these earphones, I decided to try them for myself. They did not disappoint entirely. Definitely some of the best budget earphones around for bassheads, both in build quality and sound quality, but not so much in design or comfort. However, they lack in the clarity and detail department, as the mids and highs have a dark off-tone sound that just sounds unnatural.

Comfort & Fit
For such wide cavities, they should have included wide-bore tips. Anyway, keeping them inside the ear was slightly difficult because they kept slipping out.
Lows / Bass
Very punchy and loud bass, very deep too, more than enough for you to enjoy it.
Mids / Vocals
Sounds decent with music genres like metal, but with more vocal-based genres, like soul, it sounds off-tone and nasal. Tonally, they sound dark, almost like listening through a phone.
Highs / Treble
Loud but not very detailed. Has a dark and unnatural tone to them. Sounds shrieky and harsh.
