Normally when I receive a headphone or IEM, I use it for a day or a few hours, get an impression, and make some measurements before I write a review here. Usually, I post a review the day after receiving it

In the case of the Truthear Hexa... I didn't do that. I received them late in the evening, and decided to bring them to work the next day to get an impression of them then... and I haven't stopped using them since. That's not to say they're the best IEM in my collection, or that I prefer them over stuff like the ER4SE or Blessing 2 Dusk... what that means is, I've been choosing to take them to work everyday over the other options I have.

I work as a flooring installer. There's a lot of movement and sometimes loud noise (I wear earmuffs when needed). For the longest time, even though I have a decent collection of IEMs I have always chosen to use my Galaxy Buds Pro over everything else. They sound good enough to compete with things like the Aria/Starfield, and Dunu Titan S, but in a more convenient package without wires. I have other IEMs that a much prefer the sound of like the Blessing 2 D, but I don't want to risk ruining them on a job site.

Well the Hexa did a few things that surprised me and made them the IEM of choice for work. They sound really good. They have a similar sort of signature to the Aria, but they also have a little less muddy sound to them and more controlled but clear treble. I'd describe them as neutral bright, but with sub bass. The instrument separation comes across a lot more defined than things like the Aria or Galaxy Buds Pro, but also not fatiguing in the treble like I've experienced with other IEMs.

Sound wise, it was enough of an upgrade over the Galaxy Buds Pro to motivate me to use them, even though they are less convenient being wired.

The other reason I felt comfortable to take them to work is because they feel sturdy and durable. The main shell of the body is a hard plastic with a bit of a matte finish, and then what I believe is an aluminum back plate. All together it feels very durable, but still light. As well they in my opinion I like their understated look. Being all black with the angular lines, I think they look premium, but still not overly flashy, which I appreciate for a daily/work IEM.

Overall, I'm very impressed. I don't have any measurements this time because, I just remembered now that I haven't reviewed these after using them for almost 2 weeks daily. I just really enjoyed their package as a whole. I'd say it's good if an IEM is enjoyable enough you forget you meant to review them
