Pros: Wireless earbuds with a preference score of 83 as the median of three measurements and only 1.42 dB average deviation from target. The Moondrop Link app offers ten tuning profiles plus parametric EQ, and battery life is 8 hours (40 with the case).
Cons: There is no active noise cancelling, multipoint or wireless charging, and no published IP rating. They are sold out after listing at $190, and Moondrop now points buyers to newer models.

Frequency Response
How the Moondrop Alice measures across the audible range, against the Harman in-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is the median of 3 independent measurements, so one odd sample or rig cannot skew it, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: the median of 3 independent measurements from the squig.link databases of hbb, soundignity and superreview. Thanks to each of them for publishing their work.
