Whaaaaatt for like $62 really? but how ?
78.10 is the discounted price, so if we apply the 3 usd store coupon + 8usd select coupons + 8 usd aliexpress coupon, we have a final price of 59.10 usd

which 8usd aliexpress coupon you are talking about? i haven't seen that one.
The one you can win in the shout game (btw you don't have to shout, but simply to blow on the mic)

Well, I explained about the coupons few pages back. You gets lighly lower prices through the aliexpress mobile app. Also NiceHCk offers a $3 coupon for things in the 439-89 range. You can visit the homepage of the store and collect the $3 coupon by clicking on it. In addition for items above $77 NiceHCK provides an up to $8 discount, so you can grab four $2 aliexpress select coupons by playing the stupid 11.11 games both on the site and the mobile app. Select coupons are pretty easy to get. You can buy them for 10 coins each too. Also you can get either $2 and 3 Aliexpress coupons by playing the shout game on the app or check for the coupon rains in the mobile app (put the mic of the phone next to a speaker - I managed tyo reach the highest level even through my headphones - of course amped to distortion). Right now there are like 3 rains per day, but you have to check at what time they happen and convert in to your local time. On 11 there will be more rains and now you get a $5 coupon on all items above $25. So you can get 3+8+5, which is a $16 discount on a item for $78 through the app, so ~$62

If you catch a coupon rain you don't need to play the shout game as the $5 coupon supersedes the lower ones as you can apply only one Aliexpress coupon aside from the Select coupons and the seller's coupons. Of course, if you are going to buy multiple items from different sellers it's always good to have more coupons even if not the highest possible.

Went 0 for 2 on a couple of Borofone models. 1st has a terrible channel imbalance (like 30dB) and the 2nd the right channel drops out about every 30-60 seconds. My advice would be look elsewhere. So far the best of the cheapie 2 piece bluetooth sets has been the syllable d9. The riversong air x2 isnt bad but sounds pretty compressed/recessed compared to the D9. I've got 4 more of the micro bluetooth sets coming (2 SmartOmi and a QCY and a TWS model) so maybe one of those will be a gem.

Thus far, bluetooth utopia has been elusive to say the least.
