Packaging e design | Review Creative Outlier Pro
Inside the package that is very contained we find everything we need, the headphones, the base, three pairs of silicone rubber pads of various sizes (S), (M) and (L), the cable for charging type C and instructions. The product is aesthetically very beautifulthe metallic bronze-colored case is made of plastic, it is very well done and with a beautiful design with attention to the smallest details.
Pushing the back we open the charging dock that contains the two earphones also in a metallic bronze color and with a futuristic design, ataking it and closing it several times it flows smoothly and no noise is heard. On the front side we find the three LEDs that indicate the charge level of the two earphones and the case. On the same side we also find the USB Type C port for charging. The headphones can be safely kept inside the pocket without problems as they are not bulky.
The earphones completely touchhave a small LED that flashes red or blue indicating the status of the connection.
The wireless headphones are quite large when compared to other bluetooth headsets on the market, despite this they fit perfectly into the ear, thanks also to the 3 interchangeable rubber tips of different sizes, present inside the package. They are firm and firm in the ears even when doing walks or sports.
With IPX5 certified water resistance, the earbuds can withstand rain, occasional splashes and sweat droplets. So you can train safely with headphones on, without worrying too much.

Here are some features for everyday use | Creative Outlier Pro Review
By and large the Outlier Pro perform optimally in any situation. Perfect for the musicato see film, matches of football, marathons of TV series and play on devices mobile. An advantage given by the excellent battery life.
The earphones offer good isolation and good sound quality. The noises turn out to be well managed, especially if we select a correct equalization mode.
Con three built-in microphones in each earphone, ensure loud and clear sound during calls. The microphones detect ambient sounds and focus only on our voice, effectively removing background noises and chatter around us.
Even on the shortest calls or for long calls we can rest assured. The Outlier Pros have controls touch completely customizableallowing us to control everything with a few taps on the earphones.
Creative also has a application really good, simple and effective. We can equalize the sound with predefined profiles or with customized configurations. You can adjust the volume, check the precise charge level and update the firmware of the headphones. Everything is very simple and immediate. Once connected via Bluetooth, the Outlier Pro will be detected by the application and it will be a breeze.
Battery life is great. Both for the earphones and for the case. I found myself perfectly aligned with what Creative said, 15 ore playback in headphones with ANF off, while on anf access we go down to 8/9 ore. We can reload up to 4 volte with case for up to 60 ore overall. I think that already with 10 hours we can easily cover a whole day, whether it is for work reasons or for our hobbies. In short, an average user like me, has to recharge them only 2 times a month.
How do they feel? | Creative Outlier Pro Review
Creative Outlier Pro does not disappoint with its two drivers coated in graphene 10mm, the sounds are nice clean, with nice lows and adequate highs. The balance of the two speakers is excellent. If there is any imbalance in the sound, we have a perfect equalization tool at your disposal. The maximum volume is really loud, but unless you want to be deafened, the advice is to stay between 40% and 50%especially when paired with the Outlier Pro’s hybrid active noise cancellation (ANC).
I’m able to suppress most of the background noises in ANC mode, not creating a real sound vacuum, some noise is still perceived. While in Ambient mode, the background sounds are amplified.
Each headset is equipped with three microphones, and our voice is well picked up, even at low tones. Also speaking through the surgical mask, which should not be underestimated in this period, on the other hand the interlocutor could hear me clearly.
During calls in speakerphone no echo is heard. Receiving calls by answering with a simple touch works perfectly. While for voice calls received on WhatsApp it is difficult to manage the response with the touch. The Outlier Pros can also be connected to various voice assistants such as Siri and Google Assistant.
Conclusions and price
All in all, there aren’t any big flaws in Creative Outlier Pro. We recommend the purchase of these earphones to anyone looking for a solution with IPX 5 certification, wireless and with modality ANC.
Battery life is Great, moreover the Outlier Pro boast a beautiful design with attention to the smallest details and a good audio sector. In my opinion an excellent investment. The list price is 89.99 euros, available for purchase on Creative.com.
