Urbanista Stockholm Plus Review

In this 2020 review, the Urbanista Stockholm Plus were an extremely good wireless buds model to consider, comparing them to the Airpods.

Price in 2020

At the time of this November 2020 review, the Urbanista Stockholm Plus was listed at $69 versus $109 for the AirPods, and a 25% Black Friday coupon was being promoted. Those prices and promotions are historical; check current listings.

Sound

The sound quality is really incredible. The pros are it really carries the bass, and in fact with some songs I found it to sound better.  It doesn’t have noise cancellation technology and you can slightly hear the music if you stand next to somebody

Design

Airpods have a now-standard look, but I actually found these to be much more sleek. It might be the jet black look and the straight design, but I found them to look much better. Also, with the black, they seemed to blend quite nicely and not come across as starkly bright like the Airpods.

Microphone

The sound quality with phone calls was quite good and I found no major differences.

Battery

I actually loved the battery here. Both that it charged with USB-C which is now becoming the industry standard. But it held at least five full charges which really leaves you for a full day of listening.

Overall Verdict

Overall, I found these to be a VERY strong contender compared to the Airpods.   Given the price point especially  if I had to choose, I would choose these. But that could just be my personal opinion.  When you’re weighing all of the positives and negatives I found these to hold up quite well with an overall comparison.
