↑↓ = difference vs the ★ model; lighter, longer battery and wider response are shown in green. “—” means the maker does not publish that figure.

Truthear Hexa is Truthear’s wired in-ear, released in 2023 at $79. The spec sheet lists hybrid、10 mm、21 Ω、110 dB、7.3 g。Its value is not one dramatic number but where those specs land at this price.

1. Where it sits on the shelf

Truthear Hexa: its position on the shelf (price vs weight / impedance vs sensitivity)
★ is the model under review, hollow circles are the three closest rivals, grey dots are the rest of the same form factor. Top: price vs weight. Bottom: impedance vs sensitivity.

On this wired in-ear shelf its price ranks 37th (57 models with a price), and 3th most expensive of the 23 models in the $0–100 band. At 7.3 g it ranks 33th lightest of the 57 models with weight data. 21 Ω ranks 20th highest of the 57 models that publish impedance. 110 dB ranks 22th lowest of the 57 models that publish sensitivity.

2. What the numbers change in daily use

At 21 Ω and 110 dB sensitivity. Ordinary gear can drive it; no dedicated amp is required.

The rated frequency response reaches 40 kHz.

3. Fit, isolation and use cases

At 7.3 g it is average for this form factor. In-ear tips give passive isolation, enough for commuting. No water-resistance rating is published, so sport and rain are out.

4. Head to head with its three closest rivals

Truthear Hexa against its three closest rivals, dimension by dimension
The ★ model against its three closest rivals, dimension by dimension. Dimensions no rival publishes are reduced to one line instead of an empty bar.

The three closest rivals at this price are the Moondrop Aria 2, 7Hz Legato and KZ PR2. Moondrop Aria 2 ($79 (same price)):5 g、20 Ω、108 dB;7Hz Legato ($79 (same price)):7.4 g、16 Ω、108 dB;KZ PR2 ($79 (same price)):8 g、24 Ω、102 dB。

5. Weaknesses worth stating

  • No water-resistance rating is published: sweaty workouts and rainy commutes are out.
  • Price position: of the 23 models in the $0–100 band, 2 cost more and 16 cost less.

6. What to buy instead at the same price

  • The direct rivals are the three models from section 4 (Moondrop Aria 2、7Hz Legato、KZ PR2) — which to pick depends on the spec you care about.
  • Other checkable models in the $0–100 band: Moondrop Aria 2($79、20 Ω、108 dB、5 g)、7Hz Legato($79、16 Ω、108 dB、7.4 g)、KZ PR2($79、24 Ω、102 dB、8 g).

7. Who it is for — and who it is not

  • Sport or rain: no water-resistance rating is published.
  • Wireless-only listeners: this is a wired model needing a front end and a cable.

Data note: every claim comes from maker-published specs in our own product database and same-price comparisons (price, weight, impedance, sensitivity, frequency response, codecs and battery are checkable fields). No unmeasured listening impressions are included; unpublished figures show as “—” in the table.
