The sound is a subjective matter and the taste varies from person to person. There are a plethora of wired earphones on the market under Rs. 1000 to choose from. But, not all deliver the quality sound and has the sound signature to it. Earlier, we reviewed good quality wired earphones under Rs. 1000 like Leaf Earphones, Evidson Earphones etc. on our blog.
1More is a quite popular brand and makes quality earphones and headphones. We have been testing the metal wired earphones from 1More i.e., Piston Fit that sells for Rs. 899 on Amazon India and here is our 1More Piston Fit Earphones Review
Unboxing and Box Contents:
The earphones come in a tiny box with minimalistic design and details. The box contains a picture of the earphones, 1More branding, and other usual details.
On tearing the wrap and opening the box, you will find the earphones itself and replaceable ear tips. In addition to that, you will find the user manual too. That’s it for the box contents.

- Frequency Range: 20-20,000 Hz

Design and Build Quality:
1More Piston fit earphones are made of good quality metal and the design is appealing. When it comes to the cable, it is quite a length (1.25m) and is tangles free. It is made up of Kevlar fibre which makes it sturdy. The 3.5mm jack is gold plated which gives it a premium look.
The build quality of the earphones also feels sturdy and does not give the cheap feel when held. The wire is covered by streamlined SR Tube for additional protection. There is a dedicated button to reject/answer calls along with a microphone.
The earphones have a 45° in-angle design which makes it comfortable to wear and does not trip off easily. Overall the build quality of the earphones is very good!
Sound Quality:
As we mentioned before, the sound is a subjective matter and the taste varies from person to person. Some might like to hear music with rich bass and some might like to hear music with clear vocals and less bass.
In our testing with the 1More earphones, we were quite impressed with the sound quality that it offers. The sound signature was flat for the most part and the bass was quite good. But when we swapped the ear tips with the third party ones, the audio quality improved further and the bass was much better. It handled songs with rich bass without any issue and you will enjoy listening music with these earphones.
The highs were clear and mids were detailed on the 1More Piston Fit Earphones. At high volumes, there was a minor distortion but it did not ruin the overall quality of the sound.
Overall, the driver on this earphone is quite powerful and delivers very good and rich quality sound.
Additional features:
There is a dedicated button to answer or reject calls. It also doubles up as Play/Pause button. These earphones have a single microphone to aid during calls. The call quality with this earphone was decent and it was able to handle it without any issues.
Overall, the quality of 1More Piston Earphones is good!
