it's finally here, alas it has no aptx and has a rather clunky charging method...

Thanks for the info, pretty expensive compared to the BT "cable" version https://www.aliexpress.com/item/New...-Earphone-2PIN-Cable-Use-For/32851070584.html (it has APT-X too) and it's not like I'm going to running with my TRN V80 however great they may sound

Isolation is about the same as E8 so average to decent. The flanges are extremely soft so for me no pressure at all after 2 hours use, and the battery indicator on my iPhone is showing more than 50% charge left

That's good news because the E8 are among (if not THE) best TWS for isolation, even better than the J65T : https://www.rtings.com/headphones/t...ra-elite-65t/566/612#usage*5003!threshold*0.1

Yeah that's for military and vets only. Plus the reseller reviews rating for that site doesn't inspire confidence. Yikes.

SQ is probably not quiet up there with E8 but still perfectly acceptable

Thanks for the heads up! I'm heading back to Best Buy this weekend to see if they'll give me the $50 off & maybe grab another pair for the wife.

I STRONGLY recommend you try out tip rolling. I get fantastic results with the JVC spiral dots

Tried them but didn’t find any substantial change.

Just passed 4 hours play on a charge and the battery indicator just went down to 25%

You said you saw the battery level on your iPhone, that means it comes with an app ?

@WCDchee - what is "tip rolling" ?

No but iOS displays the BT battery level in the BT icon top right. And it died shortly after giving about 4 hours 10 minutes on a charge so nearly the same as E8.

Tip rolling is trying all sorts of different tips on iem’s for different fit and sound

Anything like this on Amazon?

i don't know but you could do a search for "TRB BT20"

Thanks for the info, pretty expensive compared to the BT "cable" version https://www.aliexpress.com/item/New...-Earphone-2PIN-Cable-Use-For/32851070584.html (it has APT-X too) and it's not like I'm going to running with my TRN V80 however great they may sound

i don't think it support aptx. might just that seller that states so. i have the TRN BT1 that one seller says it has aptx (other sellers do not say that). i even asked via message for confirmation and the seller said it has aptx. I figured he might have the better "with aptx version" than other sellers because he sold it with slightly higher price.. . as it turns out when it arrived, it doesn't

I'm looking for LDAC version, but probably not out there. Or AptX LL, looking for low latency AptX

Maybe it’s just the shape of my ears, I tend to get big changes with eartip changes.

I think the havit offers insane value for a Low cost, no frills TWS earphone if you don’t need the additional features.

Totally agree and so far not a single drop out

Sorry to say I have not been following this thread. And I'm not sure if this has been discussed, but I would guess it probably has.

But has anyone compared sound characteristics of the Jabra Elite 65t vs Sony WF-1000X vs B&O E8?

And secondly, are these considered some of the best wireless IEM's out there?

For what it's worth, my favorite full size cans are the Elear and/or the D7000. I realize you cannot compare full size cans to IEM'S, I just threw that out there to give my preference of sound signature. I wonder which wireless IEM might be closest to that sound signature? TIA.

the jabra has a full and clean sound but slightly splashy treble, while the sony has a wider stage, better separation, and has a more tube compressor sound tube to it compared to the jabra. the jabra is not bad, but i enjoy the sony much more. so much so that i would love to know if there is a wired iem with the same tuning (and maybe a better SQ) to the WF1000X

i only have little experience with true wireless, and my favorite sounding TW that I'd consider can compete to wired ones are the Earin M2 and the Sony WF1000X
