I don’t know what chip(s) are in the QCY in reference to recent post desiring this particular TWE, which has it’s own store on Aliexpress, btw,;but Mpow t6 lists newest ‘entry level’ Qualcomm qcc3026 inside, for just $40 on Amazon currently. And unlike the QCY models, this is ipx7 rated, more...

Not sure why these TWE manufacturers are not using higher capacity Varta button cells that have been available for more than several years now. https://incompliancemag.com/li-ion-rechargeable-micro-batteries-target-bluetooth-portable-and-wearable-devices/ Only Bragi, as used as an example by...

Head-Fi has so many fans/followers these days: https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/02/20/samsungs-galaxy-buds-coming-march-8th-for-129/ Rflmao, comments ^: “I can imagine Head Fi furiously foaming at their mouths over Samsung calling these “buds”...lol. They harass anyone calling earbuds...

Probably could put into diff thread, but anyway: Galaxy Buds announced today with Samsung Galaxy line, likely will charge faster with Qi than Apple's Airpods 2, which are rumored to have capability of bilateral wireless charging of the Airpods from an iphone. Airpods 2 killers, announced long...

Ming-Chi Kuo doesn’t get it correct many times, with that caveat: https://9to5mac.com/2019/02/17/apple-16-inch-macbook-pro-display-more/ “Kuo says AirPods 2 will support wireless charging and upgraded Bluetooth connectivity. He says AirPower will ship during the first half of 2019, while...

I kind of get tired/fatigued from reading claims by indie US manufacturers, who should be held to same standards as their likewise less expensive ‘Chi-Fi’ counterparts (since many of these American/EU companies are getting the whole unit made in China, or obtain part from). Prime example is...

@Kitechaser, might want to also: (why I don’t bother anymore, this can be maddening/never-ending-search for audio bliss that is more trouble for me than I can take at this point in my very stressful life) try this hulking old HP amp, that is also somewhat spendy---find it used <$1k, like one...

So I'm wondering, hate how many versions we can't keep strait on these Chi-Fi brands...did you try the KZ7s yet? Seems reddit user thinks they work well with the TRN adapter https://www.reddit.com/r/headphones/comments/aj0lot/combo_review_trn_bt20_and_kz_zs7/ , which has plenty of hiss when...

Don't think that is a good description of how BT 5.0 works.

Given model 3 is $100, guess X will be ~$200...now what about the specs, codec support-what chip did they use...custom MSU, etc?

...true, but...https://jalopnik.com/why-volkswagens-are-the-only-cars-that-can-drive-faster-1540470407 only VW's can drive faster than 280mph, which no Porsche(unmodified/aftermkt tuned) can do no matter how much wealth you have, lol. And too call $300 a 'flagship' only goes to show how...

any number of 'adapters', but that's not what 'true wireless earbuds' ppl now want. I don't know what the costs/difficulty/licensing restrictions there are that make for no TWE's at present, since Sony the creator of LDAC left it off their current TWE, while putting it into older neckband...

Dumb Q, cost on these adapters, Google search shows they are not so expensive:https://www.amazon.com/Balanced-Female-Hi-end-Headphone-Adapter/dp/B072SWWZJ9 ...if you don't need EE's version? Why not tack on $5/user charge for the rest of the tour participants, to get some adapters quickly...

You might want to reconsider that desire for LDAC, connection strength is far more important to overall SQ with wireless. I see reports that BT 5.0 makes no difference in connectivity issues over BT4.x, but time will tell. How well the BT is implemented, how good the internal antenna are, makes...
