Vivo has launched a new pair of budget wireless earbuds in China. Called the Vivo TWS 5e, the earbuds were introduced alongside the Vivo S60 series, and they bring a noticeable upgrade to noise cancellation and battery life compared to the previous-generation Vivo TWS 3e.
The Vivo TWS 5e are priced at 229 yuan (roughly $32) and are available in white, black, and sky blue finishes.
The earbuds follow the familiar stem-style design with silicone ear tips and rounded outer shells, while each earbud weighs 4.3g. Vivo is also giving them an IP54 rating for dust and splash resistance.
Vivo TWS 5e brings an upgrade in ANC and Bluetooth connectivity
A major focus this year is noise cancellation. Vivo says the TWS 5e supports up to 55dB hybrid adaptive active noise cancellation, a jump from the 30dB ANC offered on the older Vivo TWS 3e.
The earbuds also include dual-microphone AI call noise reduction. And like many 2026 earbuds, Vivo is offering AI features like AI smart broadcast, instant pairing when opening the case, and real-time translation support.
Inside, the Vivo TWS 5e uses 11mm dynamic drivers and supports AAC, SBC, and LC3 audio codecs. They also include Vivo’s DeepX 3.0 stereo sound effects and spatial audio support, which the company says are meant to create a more immersive listening experience while watching movies, gaming, or listening to music.
The connectivity also gets upgraded from Bluetooth 5.3 to 5.4. It supports dual-device pairing and has a wireless range of up to 10 meters. Vivo is also promising low latency as low as 42ms.
Vivo claims the earbuds can last up to 13 hours on a single charge, while the charging case extends total playback time to as much as 55 hours. Charging happens through USB Type-C.
The Vivo TWS 5e are already available for purchase in China through Vivo’s online store.
