In this article, we’re going to take a close look at the Sivga Que earphones, dissecting their ups and downs. This product is one that I seemingly have a love-hate relationship with as a result of its form factor. Considering the pricing of this pair of earphones, its quality is mind-blowing.
From its packaging to the earphones themselves the Sivga Que is a complete package. Throughout my period of using this product, most people found it difficult to believe that it doesn’t retail above $100. Despite the fact that the Sivga Que got a lot of attention from onlookers there are a few things I wish were done differently.

Positioning and Pricing
While you might have not heard of Sigva, they are a headphone manufacturing company founded in 2016. This firm has managed to make a name for itself by using high-quality materials like wood and metal in the various products that they offer. The Sivga Que is no exception as it lives up to the name that Sigva has built for itself over the past years.
How much do you think a pair of earphones that have real maple wood and zinc alloy as their build materials cost? Maybe well over $100? If you guessed this, you’ll be wrong as this pair of wired earphones retails for $69.90.

What’s in the package
After receiving this product in the mail and unboxing it, I couldn’t seem to understand how something this premium retails for less. The retail box comes with an interesting design with the name of the product, a bird, and some Chinese write-ups. At the back of the retail box, we find some more details on this product like its specifications.
The retail box itself doesn’t feel flimsy, as it is thick and felt lined on the inside (to protect the earphones from scratches). Opening up the box, you’re greeted with the earphone buds in a thick padding that labels both left and right buds. There are two more boxes inside the Sivga Que retail box, one of which holds the leather carrying case, 2 pairs of large, small, and medium ear tips, and instruction manuals.
Just like the Sivga Que earphones, the leather carrying case wasn’t an afterthought, as a lot of attention was put into perfecting it. This is a high-quality case that houses the earphones and extra tips for easy transportation. The earphone’s changeable connecting cable is also of high quality as it’s made of oxygen-free copper with silver plating cable.
Construction, design, material, and build quality
It would have been easy to give this earphone a 10 out of 10 rating for its design. However, there is a little problem for me as an end user of this product. I have simply got too used to rocking wireless earphones on a daily basis, so carrying a wired earphone around became an issue for me.
Most flagship smartphone manufacturers don’t add a 3.5mm headphone jack to their devices so I couldn’t use this earphone on my primary device. But after using the Sivga Que for a few days on my laptop and budget secondary smartphone I started to get the hang of it. It fits perfectly into the ear and won’t fall out occasionally like over-wired earphones would.
The use of materials like maple wood, and zinc alloy makes the Sigva Que look amazing. For its build quality, material, and construction, I will give the Sivga Que a 10 out of 10 score. However, when it comes to its design, I just wish that this could be a wireless product as the world has somehow forgotten that the 3.5mm jack on smartphones exists.

Experience using the Sivga Que
Despite wishing that the Sivga Que was a pair of wireless earphones, it’s still an awesome wired earphone. Initially, I felt that I would find it difficult to rock a wired earphone in public, but I adjusted just fine. The Sivga Que was designed to be comfortable for long hours of usage thanks to how the earbuds are shaped.
An advantage of using the Sivga Que as against my wireless earphone is that the Sivga Que doesn’t run out of battery. So I technically get weeks of usage without having to plug it in to charge up. Editing documents outdoors with the Sivga Que plugged into my laptop gained me a lot of attention.
People loved not just the design of the Sivga Que but also its overall quality. However, just like every other wired earphone, I found myself tugging on the Sivga Que’s connecting wire now and then. Overall, the good sides of the Sivga Que far outweigh its sides that I really wish were different.
Audio Quality And Controls
Considering the fact that the Sivga Que is a wired earphone, it is easy to expect that it doesn’t come with some audio specifications. One of these specifications includes active noise cancellation (ANC) and the Sivga Que doesn’t come with this. However, the build of the Sivga Que offers a good level of noise cancellation and harmonic resonance.
According to Sivga, the materials used to make this wired earphone play various roles in its audio delivery. The maple wood used on this earphone ensures “excellent harmonic resonance. Sivga also ensured the addition of a wide soundstage of natural and powerful bass production.
This ensures that the music you’re listening to on the Sivga Que maintains its bass and audio quality. During my period of using this pair of wired earphones, I really came to love its overall audio quality. Regardless of what type of song I was listening to, it felt as though I had some noise-cancelling headphones on.
Conclusion and Final Verdict
The Sivga Que ticked a lot of boxes during my use experience, in areas like design, audio quality, and packaging, and this pair of earphones proved impressive. However, I had to get familiar once again with using a wired headphone, which might be a dealbreaker for some potential buyers. Putting the design, audio, and sound quality of the Sivga Que into a wired headphone will be purely amazing.
If you’re in love with wired headsets and want a premium experience for your next wired earphone, I highly recommend the Sivga Que. We look forward to testing more audio products with different form factors from Sivga. Just like with the Sivga Que, we expect these products to come with top-notch design and impressive sound quality.
