Bose earbuds hit the FCC. Announcement should be soon.

https://fccid.io/A94BL3R/External-P...35440-Bose-Model-BL3R-External-Photos-4877228

Bose just released a new Sound bar, looks like they are on a roll and we should see these TWS released very soon...

Yes, T400 refer to standard shape foam tips. T400 is the bore/center size. Tennmak has an improved version with a better foam and silicone like outer skin.

These are the different ones; T100, T200, T300 & T400:


Here's what they look like when cut shorter and used on some TWS. T200 size for the XM3 and T400 for the LP2s.


Unless you already have a good cutting tool, you can just mush them flat and use a razor blade



When I refer to APP tips, that means air pods pro replacement tips. I ordered some foam ones and removed the plastic center that mounts them to the oval shaped APP.



Once removed (peels off) they revert to round. They have a 4.5mm inner lip and 5.0mm bore, this is the small size:

Also, there are now xelastec tips for the APP. I wonder if they can be de-cored and used on many TWS that need a short inner stem. Anyone try yet?

Well, looks like it should work. Asked on Amazon.

Since you own them, would you be able to measure the size of the plastic part holding the tip? Having midget sized ear holes, I have some hard time finding something that doesn't hurt, even for multiple hours after removing my current earbud I use to receive phone calls at job. Having the size, I could compare them to the size of mine to know if it's worth ordering for a test. If they sre similarly sized or bigger, it's a no go for me sadly.
I secretly wish they are smaller size as phone call quality is seriously sub par on the Azally I use and people can't understand what I say when there is some cars around me or if there is too much wind (30km/h+ is usually too windy).

Which bit do you need measuring?

The measure I was looking for is the one at 5.6mm
I left my unit charging in the truck at the job site and will compare it tomorrow, many thanks!

Has anyone tried all three, TOZO NC9, 20Decebel and TaoTronics SoundLiberty 94? El Jefe said the TOZOs sounded better and has better ANC than the Taotronics while Gamesky said the TOZO and 20Decebel sound totally different. If this is the case then it might be that the components are by the same OEM but the drivers and tuning are different.

As for battery life I find it quite disappointing. I've been using them for less than 12 hours with ANC on, and the case is already depleted. I hope the replacement doesn't do this but I'm pretty sure they still rely on the case being powered to turn off the buds (why hasn't this changed? Out of all my TWS only Galaxy Buds+ can still power off when the case is depleted).

Thanks for the heads up. I'll avoid them



Great. Since I often get phone calls during the day while using them, I might first try the Edifier. Seems like the general consensus about their phone call quality.


Maybe you'll accept my entrance in your review program so I can test the Apollo Bold against the Edifier and 1 more I haven't decided yet?
I'll gladly test myself on my first earbud review and comparison.

Wish you good luck! We will pick up 10 participants! Maybe you are one of them! Let's wait together!

Thought i share some info for the yet to be released flagship Nuarl N10 Pro release date late Sept
Comes with APP according to the dealer, it has a wider sound stage and more bass than the N6 Pro while retaining the detail.

Meanwhile, are you able to give 1 spec I'm looking for, about the Apollo Bold?

What's the diameter of the plastic canal holding the tip of the IEM?
Is is bigger or smaller than the 5.6mm of the Edifier TWSNB2?

I agree multipoint has its issues, but I can't see how these can't be addressed. I'm just surprised that at this day and age, almost nobody except Jabra has pushed for multipoint. I use a Dyplay headphone and usually don't get interruptions but there are occasions where the second device triggers interference of the device currently playing audio (for example, auto-play videos while browsing on my phone when listening to music through my laptop). Using the Note 9's S-Pen can also cause the same thing to happen.

Not sure if this is what you guys are talking about but with my Anbes 359 and Tranya T3s connected to my galaxy S8, I'd sometimes experience issues maintaining connection if I was already connected to my smartwatch and a pokemon go Plus (both bluetooth accessories)

Looks like the $50 sale for the Fiil T1 XS is done, I should’ve just ordered a pair. Hell, even at $75, I’d order a pair if I knew for sure I could get them In time by the end of the month when I think I’m leaving for Turkey. Scarbir’s review showing the case being overall smaller and a cm thinner and talking about how the sound has gotten even better (not to mention how pretty they look in white) really sold me on a pair.

Amazon has the original Fiil T1 X on sale for $42 currently, which is an absolutely killer deal for anyone who doesn’t mind the bulky case. I wish the case weren’t such an issue for me, because the bang for buck is totally unbeatable.

It is still available at just under US$55 with free shipping to Singapore where I am.

Quite happy with MTW2 currently but Nuarl N10 and Bose 700 would be fun to try out...

Hi friends, seems Aliexpress is having a wireless lucky bag thingy here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001369178632.html

Haven't tried any of these gear, seems you can get 1 of the below 4 items with a purchase (with their % chances below). $48 USD seems a bit pricey for me and I haven't tried any whizzer gear. I think the last item 4 (A15 Pro) is not wireless, but do you folks think it is a worthwhile draw? Whizzer a good company for wireless stuff?

This is not so much an issue of multipoint as having too much Bluetooth traffic around you. The Realtek chip in last year's budget TWS is mediocre with my Note 9 as well. When I put my hand near the volume rocker or cover the top-left corner of the phone, the audio starts to stretch/alias and cut. I'm not sure if this problem is only on the Note 9 but I thought at this day and age we should be over the Bluetooth "death grip". If I have 2 Bluetooth devices connected to my phone, things can get real ugly.

For that price i would not recommend to take the gamble. I have got Whizzer OT1 TWS and those are real flimsy plastic and feels cheap. On scarbir.com you can find a review of B6.

The TP1 and B6 can probably be found near this price when there are Aliexpress sales going on.

 

[jwong]

The TP1 is actually cheaper than that surprise bag. So between that and having zero use for another Bluetooth speaker, that gives me an 80% chance of being disappointed!
