Bt Bh024 Truly Wireless Honest Review — Is the Hype Justified?

I've been using the Bt Bh024 Truly Wireless earbuds for several months now — commuting with them, working out in the gym, taking calls while cooking, and falling asleep to podcasts with one earbud in. In this long-form review I’ll share everything I learned the hard way: what I genuinely liked, what repeatedly annoyed me, and who (if anyone) I think should consider buying these. I bought my pair myself and tested them in real-world conditions, so everything below is based on hands-on experience rather than spec-sheets or marketing blurbs.

First impressions and daily use

Out of the box the Bh024 felt like a budget-minded product: the packaging was simple and the case is compact. The finish of the case and earbuds isn’t premium, but it didn’t feel flimsy either. After charging them up I paired them with my phone, laptop, and a tablet to see how the connection behaved across devices. The initial setup was straightforward — the earbuds entered pairing mode quickly and my phone found them without trouble.

In daily life, the things that defined my experience were comfort, sound signature, battery life, controls, and call quality. Below I’ll break each of those down in detail based on months of use.

Comfort and fit

Fit is the first make-or-break factor for me. The Bh024 come with multiple silicone tip sizes. I experimented with all of them and settled on the medium tips for left and right — that produced a snug fit and decent passive isolation. I noticed that they sit a little deeper in my ear than some other stems-less designs, which I appreciated during runs because they didn’t bounce around.

That said, a few people I showed them to found them less comfortable for long listening sessions than slimmer, winged designs. In my experience I could wear them for 1.5–2 hour listening sessions without discomfort, but after longer stretches they started to press on the concha. If you have smaller ears, try them for a short session before committing — the fit varies from person to person.

Sound quality — what I actually heard

Sound is where the Bh024 surprised me. Coming from mid-range earbuds, my expectation for budget True Wireless was “serviceable but boring.” What I found was a pair of earbuds with a warm, slightly bass-forward signature that makes pop, hip-hop, and podcasts sound pleasing at casual listening volumes.

• Bass: The low end is prominent and punchy. I enjoyed it for energetic tracks — bass hits felt satisfying without being muddy at moderate volumes. At the highest volumes the bass could bloom and overshadow mids, but I spent most of my time around 60–75% volume where it felt balanced for my taste.
• Mids: Vocals and guitars are present but not highly detailed. I found male vocals a bit recessed compared with the low end; female vocals cut through better. Acoustic tracks lacked a little texture compared with higher-end earbuds.
• Treble: Treble is safe — not sharp, and not especially airy. Cymbals and hi-hats are audible but won’t sound crystalline. That makes these earbuds forgiving with poor recordings, but also less exciting with hi-res material.
• Soundstage: Narrow and intimate, as you’d expect for enclosed earbuds. They don’t create a wide stage, but imaging is stable — instruments sit in pretty predictable places.

Overall, the Bh024 are “fun” earbuds more than “analytical” earbuds. If you want flat, reference sound for critical listening, these aren’t them. If you want something that makes playlists, podcasts, and YouTube content enjoyable without fatigue, they do a solid job.

Battery life and charging

After several months of daily use, these are the numbers I observed in real-world conditions: I typically got between 4 to 5 hours of continuous playback from a single earbud charge at moderate volume. The charging case provided roughly two to three full top-ups over a few days of intermittent listening, which translated into around 12–18 hours of additional playback from the case depending on use patterns.

Charging speed is average. The case topped up in about 1.5–2 hours from empty to full using a standard charger. I used them on commutes, leaving the case on my nightstand to refresh between sessions, and the real-world battery was reliable: I wasn’t hunting for a charger mid-day except during heavy usage days with long conference calls.

Connectivity and latency

Bluetooth performance has been stable for me. Pairing is quick and reconnection is consistent when I open the case. I experienced occasional hiccups when I moved between rooms (about one reconnect every couple weeks), but nothing that required manual resetting or re-pairing.

Latency is acceptable for casual video watching on a tablet — lipsync was mostly fine under normal streaming conditions, though I could notice a slight lag during fast, high-action gaming sessions. For mobile gaming or competitive scenarios I’d choose a product that advertises low-latency gaming modes.

Controls and usability

The control scheme on the Bh024 is a mixed bag. My pair uses touch-sensitive areas on each bud. They let you play/pause, skip tracks, answer calls, and summon your phone’s voice assistant.

In practice I appreciated how intuitive single-tap and double-tap actions are for everyday use. What bothered me was the inconsistent responsiveness when my fingers were slightly wet or when I tried to change volume directly on the buds. Touch zones sometimes interpreted a press as a hold or ignored an input entirely. After a while I learned to rely on my phone for precise control and use the earbuds mainly for play/pause and call handling.

Call quality

Durability and sweat resistance

I've used the Bh024 on runs and in the gym a few times a week for months. They survived sweat and occasional light drizzle without issue. The manufacturer lists some level of water resistance (my unit survived workouts), but I wouldn’t submerge them or use them in heavy rain. The case shows minor scuffs after daily pocketing, but no structural issues so far.

What I appreciated most

• Sound that feels lively and enjoyable for everyday listening — music is engaging without needing EQ tweaks.
• Comfortable fit for medium-length listening sessions; they stayed in during runs for me.
• Reliable Bluetooth pairing and decent real-world battery life that matches a commuter’s needs.
• Solid call performance in quiet or moderate-noise environments.

What disappointed me

• Touch controls are finicky at times — wet fingers or sweaty palms reduce responsiveness.
• Sound tuning favors bass over detail, so I noticed less refinement on acoustic and classical tracks.
• No multi-device switching of the seamless sort found on more expensive earbuds; switching between laptop and phone is manual reconnection in some cases.
• No active noise cancellation (ANC). If you expected ANC from the hype, you’ll be disappointed — these rely on passive isolation only.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Enjoyable, bass-forward sound that makes playlists sound lively
• Good fit for workouts and commutes for many ear shapes
• Stable Bluetooth connection and reliable daily battery life
• Simple pairing and an intuitive day-to-day experience
• Durable enough for regular sweat exposure

Cons

• Touch controls can be inconsistent, especially with moisture
• Lack of ANC or advanced audio features limits noise isolation in loud spaces
• Mids and treble lack detail compared with higher-tier earbuds
• No dedicated companion app or extensive EQ options (in my experience)

Quick comparison table

Who should buy the Bh024?

In my experience the Bh024 makes sense for a specific user profile: someone who wants a pleasing sound signature for everyday listening at a low price and who values comfort and simple usability over audiophile accuracy and advanced features like ANC or an elaborate companion app.

If you primarily listen to bass-forward music, podcasts, and casual streaming — and you want something that simply “works” for commutes, gym sessions, and conference calls without being precious about perfect sound — the Bh024 will likely make you happy. If you need top-tier call quality for daily professional calls, ANC to drown out airplane cabin noise, or a detailed soundstage for mixing and critical listening, I’d look higher up the price ladder.

Buying guide — what to consider before you purchase

1. Sound signature

Decide whether you prefer a neutral, analytical sound or a warm, bass-forward presentation. The Bh024 leans toward the latter, so if you like punch and fun over sheer detail, they’ll suit you.

2. Battery life and daily usage

Consider how long your typical listening sessions are. The Bh024 reliably covered my commutes and workouts, but if you frequently need 8+ hours of continuous listening without charging, look at models with longer per-earbud battery life.

3. Controls and convenience

Think about whether you want touch controls or physical buttons. Touch can be sleek but finicky; physical buttons are often more reliable. In my use the touch controls were convenient for basic tasks but not perfect for volume control or in wet conditions.

4. Microphone and call needs

If you take many calls in busy environments, prioritize earbuds with strong mic noise reduction. The Bh024 were fine for occasional calls and quiet spaces but struggled a bit in heavy wind or very noisy venues.

5. Water/sweat resistance

If you plan to use earbuds for exercise, confirm the IP rating and real-world sweat resistance. The Bh024 handled my gym sessions without issue, but I still avoid heavy rain.

6. Software features

Decide how important things like an EQ, firmware updates, and device switching are to you. I didn’t have a companion app on my pair, so EQ options were limited to the phone’s global EQ or streaming app settings.

Final thoughts — is the hype justified?

After several months with the Bt Bh024, my conclusion is measured: the hype feels grounded if your expectations match what these earbuds are designed to deliver. They excel where they need to for their price point — enjoyable, punchy sound, comfortable fit for many people, dependable battery life for everyday use, and reasonable call performance.

What the Bh024 don’t deliver is premium polish: you won’t get active noise cancellation, studio-like detail, rock-solid touch controls in every situation, or an ecosystem of app-driven features. I noticed those gaps in real use, and I’d expect them to be deal-breakers for listeners who prioritize ANC or audiophile accuracy.

In my experience, if you want a fuss-free pair of TWS earbuds that make music and podcasts more fun without costing much, the Bt Bh024 is a worthwhile pick. If you need advanced features or absolute fidelity, consider stepping up to a higher tier. For what they are — entertaining, everyday earbuds — I found them to be a practical, enjoyable companion for months of regular use.
