Just got my pair an hour ago. So far I like them. Aluminium charging case feels premium but it's bit heavy. Buds itself are light and (1h in ear) still comfortable. I don't want to comment to much on sound since it's still not burned it. But out of the box and with 1h playing time they already...

https://lineageos.org/engineering/Bluetooth-SBC-XQ/ Good read for those who have good TWS without aptX or better and an Android phone which could run curstom roms

I did saved some tracks from there even if it's not my primary music genre :o2smile: actually I think it would be nice when more people here would have a playlist link with fav songs somewhere in the profile. People who value good sound quality might also have a good taste in music :D

I have a volume imbalance between the buds on the Bomaker SiFi for a 2nd time.. the left bud is louder than the right one I had it already yesterday and a reset has helped. But now I have already reset 3x without a change.. And I had it with every TWS I ever had at some point. With Realtek...

listening to SiFi right now (received 2 days ago) and they are a good overall package with a nice pocketable small case. might be a bit nicer sounding than MPOW T5/M5 (don't have them to A/B right now) but I guess a little bit more burn in would improve the SiFi further But I would not buy them...

I've have said that "SBC" Headphones would work better on custom roms which do have SBC Dual Channel / SBC HD since it doubles the bandwidth. So SBC HD gets comparable to aptX and also beats AAC. the MPOWs have aptX so nothing to gain or lose with the Smartphone Firmware in this case

I have a track for the upper bass test. Easy to overdo with overpowering bass which bloats in to the mids Maya Jane Cole's - Weak

Those whohe have the L2P and a good DAP with IEMs, how do they compare? I am basically thinking about getting a shanling up2 with some decent IEMs. But if the L2P are on the same level, then I'll happily would get into the higher price TWS market just because it's so convenient. But the SQ has...

I bought these https://mobilephonegift.com/product/mpg-bqc35-anc-tws-earbuds-active-noise-cancelling/ on 11.11 (no special deal, just the frustration that there was no exiting TWS on Ali ^^) Didn't got an shipping email yet... New chipset which is not Qualcomm or realtek and claims aptX support...

The only possible difference are the encoders. So apple has the best AAC encoder, but Android's solution might be 2nd place still. And "possibly" better encoders comparing very old and new Android devices. Apart from that, as long the reception is good, there is no other variable which could...

speaking of conspiracy theory, there might be more truth there than most people think. OPUS is the best lossy audio codec out there. 100% royalty free. there was simply no reason for the Bluetooth SIG to not enforce it with bluetooth 5.0 spec but it would make AAC, aptX, aptX HD ... useless...

yeah i would not advice to buy the KZ T1 just try the B530. even with AAC they are good. and could be improved further with the right phone / software and SBC HD | Dual Channel "should" be in android 10, but i have not tried it myself yet. on custom roms its already working on android 8 & 9...

I have used the following TWS: QCY T2C, Tiso i4/i5, KZ T1, MPOW T5 and Tranya B530. KZ T1 had the best fit, and possibly because of the ear tips since I have used the small T1 ear tips on the MPOW T5 which improved the fit a lot. The stock T5 tips made them stick out to much. The KZ T1 ear tips...

so after some A/B testing between the TRANYA B530 vs MPOW T5 my quick & dirty conclusion is the following: I would not sell either to get the other. "Quality" wise they are comparable. B530 are just more open, more balanced signature. Better suited for more music genres whereas the T5 have...

without having the Anbes 359, i would say no. simply even if the B530 are slightly better, I don't see a reason to have more than 1 pair of headphones of comparable quality. I personally am 100% sold on TWS, and just wait for the right high end pair with at least aptX HD, to also get rid of the...
