Headphoneus Supremus
Pros: The most crazy bass out of 11 other TINs I have reviewed
Perfect fitment as 4 grams each in weight
Small fitting, at the very opening of ear canal
Comes in your choice of red, white or blue
Waterproof sports design to IPX5
2 modes either game-mode, music-mode or transparency-mode, noise-reduction mode
Super low latency game-mode
5 hours play time per charge and 30 hours with continual case charges
Bluetooth 5.3
New oval design nozzles and subsequent oval silicone ear-tip design in three sizes
Never moves out of ear during normal sports activity, at least in my gym workouts
Smart Hall system: Magnetically activated union with past device, and subsequent off when case closed
Great timbre and note-weight from a 13mm composite PU+PEEK single full-range Dynamic Driver
Big additional stage authority due to heavy sonic footprint
Gets louder than you will ever need or could reasonably stand
Unique stage size helps propel smooth treble elements into position
Firm throaty vocals for both male and female

Cons: Holds so much middle bass emphasis and lower midrange that pace is smeared
Has a great level of sub-bass yet due to being covered (by middle bass) only comes out to fight its way through when prominent
Bass head levels of bass a new departure for TINHIFI

Treble may come across as slightly subdued for listeners seeking a brighter presentation.

Above average isolation
Balanced U-shaped profile, quite all-rounder for most music genres

Cons: Dearth of accessories
Very low impedance; this IEM may be fussy to pair source-wise (for sources with high output impedance)
Upper mids may be borderline shouty (more apparent at louder volumes)
Mid-bass could do with better texturing
