Amazing that such company would implement and later aprove such audio quality... To me is also baffling that SBC was developed with such a huge flaw in their encoding process. Why the engineers behind the SBC codec didn’t perform these frequency sweeping tests is to me a big mistery...

You can increase the bitrate all you want, but the usual SBC artifacts won't go away, specially that noise around 5kHz while 20Hz-200Hz frequencies are playing...

I think it’s bad advice telling to use SBC instead of AAC on Android... As you can see SBC has way too much more audible impact in the music than AAC, even on Android. The only issue with the AAC implementation on Android phones is a slight extra battery consumption and a small variation...

Some days ago I discussed about the SBC vs AAC vs APTX issue, fueled by my disappointment regarding the unsupported AAC codec on the Bomaker Sifi, which for an iPhone user is a problem because you are limited to SBC. I've made a video showing clearly the problem with SBC and their artifacts that...

Just as a reminder, be aware that two versions of the T1C/QS1 are floating in the market, where the old one has the sound and performance that everyone seems to like and the new version has a rattling driver on the lower bass regions. On the other side the new version has Master-Master...

Yep... They seem to have this new batch with worse driver quality. It’s easy to identify the new and old batch: new one comes in a white box and the old batch came in a brown box...

Try the “Bass Shaker” test on the “Quality” section: https://www.audiocheck.net/soundtests_headphones.php Sometimes we discuss earbud quality purely by listening, but these tests are actually where we hear their faults or virtues in a more scientific and accurate way... For instance if I try...

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! I had a new pair that I ordered for my girlfriend as she liked mine and indeed they have a different sound upon connection and both sides connect straight to the phone... Great feature but... the QC on the drivers seems worse. While doing my usual...

In one word: buytheFIILT1x!

This is what I got from the support of Bomaker: One can for now on assume that at least the Bomaker Sifi equipped QCC3020 chipset does not support AAC. As for the other devices with the same chip, seems might still be a possibility that they are compatible according to the positive reports...

I do also find them amazing performers for the price, but it's a pity they advertise AAC when in the end they don't support AAC (I've noticed that they updated their german and french amazon pages and removed any reference to AAC). I know that talking about codecs might seem nitpicking, but...

And the plot thickens... I did a lot of testing and I can say for sure that I never got AAC activated on all the devices. I noticed also that the Libratone Track Air+ have the QCC 5121 which is a higher tier chipset from Qualcomm available for TWS devices and that one is reported by The...

Hum are you sure they are the Plus model? Because the previous versions no-Pro and Pro were with another chipset (maybe the Realtek also used in the QCY T1/QS1) and from my experience those work perfectly with AAC on all my devices: Macbook Pro, iPhone 6S, iPad gen 7 and a Nokia Android One 3.1...

No no, there is no EQ setting or even app on the android phone... So again beware of the QCC 3020 devices as all of them will behave similarly to the Bomaker Sifi: no AAC support at all and APTX might be also sketchy on some Android phones.
