esbeecables ES-FBAUS212 MFi-Certified Lightning Earbuds, 2-Pack with Mic

For listening to music or taking calls from an iPhone with a Lightning connector, the esbeecables ES-FBAUS212 offers a straightforward wired setup. The package includes two pairs, and each has an in-line microphone and remote. Would a wired connection suit your routine better than managing wireless earbuds? The listing identifies these as Apple MFi certified and names a range of compatible iPhone models.

Strengths

The main practical draw is the combination of a Lightning plug, in-ear fit, and cord-mounted controls. The built-in microphone supports calls, while the remote can adjust volume and manage playback. The product description says a single press plays or pauses music, two presses skip to the next track, and three presses return to the previous track. These controls can be useful when your phone is tucked away during a commute, desk work, or a walk.

The two-pack gives you a second pair to keep in another place or use as a backup. That is a different kind of convenience from choosing one pair of wireless earbuds: these connect by cable and do not depend on a separate wireless pairing step. Passive noise control is listed, so the design is intended to reduce some surrounding sound through the in-ear fit, it should not be confused with active noise cancellation.

The listing specifies a copper-core cable, ABS enclosure material, and a built-in decoding chip. It also claims 48 kHz and 24-bit audio output. Those details describe the product as presented, but they do not establish how it will sound in every listening setup. A solid pick if you want simple wired listening and call controls for a listed Lightning-equipped iPhone.

Key takeaways

The stated compatibility includes iPhone models from the iPhone 14 family through older listed models, including iPhone 13, 12, 11, XS, XR, X, 8, and 7. The product description also names some iPad Pro, Air, and mini devices, but the primary focus is iPhone. Check that your particular device has a compatible Lightning connection before choosing these, the listing does not describe a USB-C version or an adapter in the package.

The format may appeal to someone who prefers a cable and wants the microphone and playback controls within reach. If you are comparing it with a wireless pair, the trade-off is clear: this design avoids a wireless connection, while the cord remains part of everyday use. The package contents listed are two wired headphones, and the product information states a 36-month warranty. Warranty terms and coverage are not detailed here.

Usage tips

Use the in-line remote for the listed playback actions and volume adjustment, and speak through the built-in microphone for calls. Because the connection is Lightning, match the plug to the device rather than relying on the broad compatibility wording alone. The earbuds are described as in-ear and intended for everyday entertainment, work, study, and sports use, fit and comfort can vary by person, so the ergonomic claims should be treated as design intent rather than a guaranteed personal fit.

The description promotes noise reduction, but the listed noise-control type is passive. That makes these more suitable for ordinary listening where an in-ear seal is useful than for shoppers specifically seeking adjustable active noise cancellation. You may want to skip it if your device does not have a compatible Lightning connection or if you specifically want a wireless design.

Final verdict

The esbeecables ES-FBAUS212 is a practical choice to consider when you want two wired, Lightning-connected in-ear sets with a microphone and cord remote for supported devices. Its strongest buying reasons are the two-pair package and simple call and playback controls, not a promise of a particular sound experience. Choose it for the listed wired setup, consider a different format if you need USB-C or wireless earbuds.
