Disclaimer :
I got this unit by my own purchase and this review is not affiliated by VIDO nor paid by anyone or anyway.
VIDO is one of low budget earbuds that use the Sennheiser MX500 housing. It cost around 2 USD in my country. So cheap right?
The earbud has many color offerings like green, purple, grey and clear one.
I have the green one and i noticed that there's no vido naming anymore on the L/R markings, maybe this is the new batch from vido.
My sound preference is neutral or mild v-shaped bright.
I used full foam tips from the package for the review.
Gears used :
- Poco F5
- Fiio KA17
- Jcally JM08c

Songs tested :
- Lukas Graham - 7 Years
- ZZ Ward - Put the Gun Down- Lindsey Stirling + Otto Knows + Alex Aris - Dying For You- Charlie Puth - We Don't Talk Anymore (feat. Selena Gomez)- Hailee Steinfeld - Love Myself- Paramore: crushcrushcrush - Derek Hough - Kairos Ft. Lindsey Stirling- Adele - Hello / Lacrimosa (Mozart) – The Piano Guys- Paramore: Hard Times
- Auli'i Cravalho - How Far I'll Go - Clean Bandit - Rockabye
- Raleigh Ritchie - Stronger Than Ever- Taylor Swift - Shake It Off
- Vivaldi - The Four Seasons
- One Republic - Counting Stars
- BABYMONSTER - Drip
- L'Arc～en～Ciel -「YOU GOTTA RUN」
The Sound :
Bass : The bass is punchy with the mid bass prominence over the sub bass. Sub bass is subtle and rolled off, typical for earbuds but it's there if you could get a proper fit. The bass gives the texture and depth for vocals and instruments. Bass speed is average.
Mids : The center of attraction : female vocals are forward, quite thick and weighty thanks to the bass. The same with male vocals but sound less forward. The vocals are natural and quite energetic on some vocal heavy songs. String instruments like cello, violin and guitar are beside the vocals.
Treble : is airy and extends moderately with decent detail retrieval. On high pitched instrument like cymbals, hi-hats have nice impact and decay without being peaky, violin sounds natural.
Soundstage : Staging is wide but depth and height are only average.
Imaging and separation : Imaging is good but on busy tracks the location of each instrument are a bit mixed and centered, the vocals are the most standout on most songs. The technicalities is okay for the price.
Timbre accuracy is great with a bit thick note weight.
Conclusions :
You should grab this earbud if you love flathead earbuds, it won't hurt for just a few bucks. For the price i can't complain about durability, as long as you are not hardcore user this will last until you upgrade.

VIDO IS STILL THE KING OF THE HILL OF EARBUDS !
Pros: Great Sounding Flathead Earbuds for a Low Price
Cons: None whatsoever
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
Below image showcasing the inside of a White with a Thinner Tunning Foam compared to the Thicker tunning foam in the Blue Vido.
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.

The issue is – Audiophilia is a money market. Marketing. Promotions. Every new day someone pops with some new crap, charging you money, again, and saying this new Z product will crap on the X product you already have. Then it’s us. Contant itch to get something new. They want us to keep buying. We want us to keep buying. I’ve since stopped upgrading now ever-since my Focal Elex+EMU+Hifiman XS. The itch does come, but I contain it now. I already am content and satisfied with what I have. But the industry doesn’t want you to stop. That is their death sentence. They want you to keep buying. Tell me, what can any other company even do with a $1.5 product? So they won’t talk a lot about it. Why should you skip their hundred-dollar offerings for a $2 alternative? The whole hi-fi market will choke and die off then.

Of course, you’re not gonna talk about this cheap as a pack of peanuts solution. Where’s the money in that? Everyone’s here to make money, and everyday some new alt-tech appears: More Balanced Armatures! Dozen More drivers! Multiple crossovers! Silver Gold Platinum Diamond Cables! Bone Conduction (Mind you, I just bought, out of curiosity, the CVJ Konoka, and yet still, Vido is better and still has harder and lower register bass compared to an IEM which literally has a bone conduction driver)!
These are some reasons why almost free stuff that still holds its own in the current market will not get enough exposure. Those who know Vido – just – know.
Have at it. Spend $2. In doubt? Find out.

Absolutely %$# @AT Khan Go Woke Go Broke, can't go wrong with the Vido's past or present bang for Buck/s, @LaughMoreDaily @vygas 2021-24 Vido?(would be great for a present update, anyone? 
) don't own them so won't know as I'm just happy with my dozen or so previous Vido purchases that are still durable and serving me well

Mids : The center of attraction : female vocals are forward, quite thick and weighty thanks to the bass. The same with male vocals but sound less forward. The vocals are natural and quite energetic on some vocal heavy songs. String instruments like cello, violin and guitar are beside the vocals.
Treble : is airy and extends moderately with decent detail retrieval. On high pitched instrument like cymbals, hi-hats have nice impact and decay without being peaky, violin sounds natural.
Soundstage : Staging is wide but depth and height are only average.
Imaging and separation : Imaging is good but on busy tracks the location of each instrument are a bit mixed and centered, the vocals are the most standout on most songs. The technicalities is okay for the price.
Timbre accuracy is great with a bit thick note weight.
Conclusions :
You should grab this earbud if you love flathead earbuds, it won't hurt for just a few bucks. For the price i can't complain about durability, as long as you are not hardcore user this will last until you upgrade.

VIDO IS STILL THE KING OF THE HILL OF EARBUDS !
Pros: Great Sounding Flathead Earbuds for a Low Price
Cons: None whatsoever
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
Below image showcasing the inside of a White with a Thinner Tunning Foam compared to the Thicker tunning foam in the Blue Vido.
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.

The issue is – Audiophilia is a money market. Marketing. Promotions. Every new day someone pops with some new crap, charging you money, again, and saying this new Z product will crap on the X product you already have. Then it’s us. Contant itch to get something new. They want us to keep buying. We want us to keep buying. I’ve since stopped upgrading now ever-since my Focal Elex+EMU+Hifiman XS. The itch does come, but I contain it now. I already am content and satisfied with what I have. But the industry doesn’t want you to stop. That is their death sentence. They want you to keep buying. Tell me, what can any other company even do with a $1.5 product? So they won’t talk a lot about it. Why should you skip their hundred-dollar offerings for a $2 alternative? The whole hi-fi market will choke and die off then.

Of course, you’re not gonna talk about this cheap as a pack of peanuts solution. Where’s the money in that? Everyone’s here to make money, and everyday some new alt-tech appears: More Balanced Armatures! Dozen More drivers! Multiple crossovers! Silver Gold Platinum Diamond Cables! Bone Conduction (Mind you, I just bought, out of curiosity, the CVJ Konoka, and yet still, Vido is better and still has harder and lower register bass compared to an IEM which literally has a bone conduction driver)!
These are some reasons why almost free stuff that still holds its own in the current market will not get enough exposure. Those who know Vido – just – know.
Have at it. Spend $2. In doubt? Find out.

Absolutely %$# @AT Khan Go Woke Go Broke, can't go wrong with the Vido's past or present bang for Buck/s, @LaughMoreDaily @vygas 2021-24 Vido?(would be great for a present update, anyone? ) don't own them so won't know as I'm just happy with my dozen or so previous Vido purchases that are still durable and serving me well
