My n6 pro I got about 6 hours, and mavin air xr about 5 hours, both were suppose to be 10 hours of used, I used both to listen music video on YouTube, does watching video drain the battery more if just listen to music, my source is s20 ultra, volume at 15% for both.

Does your phone have TWS+ enabled? Were you on AAC or APT-X?

Need to use AAC & TWS+ to get max battery life, afaik. I get about 5.5-6.5 hours on my Air-XR on APT-X & my Pixel 3 XL, which doesn't support TWS+. Even though my chipset supports it, the software/firmware doesn't (android 10).

How do you turn on tws+ and how to choose codecs?

You can't enable or disable TWS+, that is done by the manufacturer.

To change codecs you need to turn on developer options and then select the codec you want. This resets every use, so you'll need to do it every time you use the tws.
Usually it will default with what the tws manufacturer set. All my AptX tws will always default to AptX on android. Most of the time, it will choose the best codec supported.

So there no way to fix the battery issues?
I don't know but I got 7+ hours constantly and I listened pretty loud too. I mainly use my N6pro with my pc for long listening session, when using my phone, I usually only use my N6 for max like 1 hour or so.

Anyone else having battery case drain issues with the Galaxy Buds+? It seems there's a fair number of complaints and in my experience it discharges quite rapidly after about 4-6 hours of use. I do wonder if part of the problem is that the buds don't constantly sit properly in the case (if you open and shake the case you can see the internal charge LED blink).I'm thinking of getting a replacement but will probably wait until this mess is over. Wondering if anyone knows whether Samsung Canada requires you to send it in before receiving a replacement.

The BLU-300 Bluetooth IEMS from Brainwavz were interesting while they lasted (?) Hard to find stock anywhere. For 40 USD, only SBC, but they are light and although they don't have a lot of detail, are worth their price I'd say.

This song has very nice cymbals sound and Nuarl N6 pro absolutely nails it.

part of me thinks these will just sound similar to the nuarl N6Pro, part of me also has to admit, if i hadn't been burned so badly by Final i'd be interested in them. Objectively though, probably gonna be a solid offering at a decent price.
