Summary:
The Vido is just your budget earbuds which can be found for only $1 if you can find it and in an unassuming typical MX500s Sennheiser Type Designed DIY Shells.
The below image features its pricier predecessor The Sennheiser MX500,
which has been taken over by miles in terms of sound quality and high fidelity!
Vido has been around for more than 5 years now, if you don’t know about them, Which Rock have you been hiding under?
Apparently, The hype still continues today, with its Mega Punchy Bass and micro-detailed Treble, even now, there are still some who may not know that they have multiple sound signatures to boot, what is magical is on the inside.
Well, it has 4-5 colors variants,
WHITE, BLACK, BLUE, RED &
Now also in Clear
BLUE/RED, with a slightly differently tuned driver
Same Driver, Different Sounding
Why you may ask is how is it able to create a different sound signature and still maintain the same driver, well it’s the various different thickness of their internal tunning foams which are being used in the Vido color variants, White being the thinnest to Black being the thickest.
A Quick Break Down of the Sound Signatures based on their Color Variant.
- WHITE – BASS HEAVY
- BLACK – ALL ROUNDED, LEAST BASS, VOCALS ARE MORE FORWARD
- BLUE – GOOD MIDS, WIDEST SOUND STAGE AMONGST THE OTHERS (aka Yincrow X6)
- RED – MOST BALANCED, WITH ELEVATED MID BASS
- BLUE/RED – ALL ROUNDED, BALANCED BASS AND TREBLE

Finale:
To me, the Vido has always been the closest to what I would call a natural tonality out of all the Headgears I owned and I do own a fair bit ( 100+ units, Flathead Earbuds) and have been using it as my main drivers for commuting through the years
It's a no-brainer for anyone to place this piece of Audio Fidelity into their collection and I must say its a valuable asset, an affordable "TOTL" for everyone to own with its low low low price..also now a legend in the annals of the Flathead Earbuds History due to its popularity.
