I actually had the original version with horrible hissing. They sounded great, except for the hissing, obviously.
Well...got the "new version" and well, they are actually the new version! Very faint hiss, but nothing extreme and very typical with most TWS. Very satisfied this time around AND these are a no-brainer with the promo code. Even at full price, a solid recommendation. SQ is among the best out there, regardless of price.
Cool, thanks for the Promo...it worked direct from Anker/Soundcore direct also. Hopefully I find these worth the $120. I have the MW07+, Sony WF-1000XM3, and Sennheiser MTW right now from Best Buy to evaluate if am OK keeping any of the $200+ options that interest me. So far suspect I will return all. MW07+ sounds really nice and like controls, but at $300 the SQ, noise cancelling and ambient mode aren't far enough over these Shanling to justify the dosh. Really the Shanling aren't far off when EQed some. I suspect there is some good DSP something going on with the MW07+ and something about how they go in your ear that give them a more open sound than these others I am checking. The sony are just super uncomfortable for me. Hoping Anker is better. Sony are probably near parity with the Shanling EQed once I match response....seems to depend on song and music type which I prefer. The Sennheiser are just super uncomfortable and something about them seems cheap for the price...while to me being a bit boomy somehow. The MW07+ at least seem premium built in all ways. I will say the MW07+ might be a bit to sharp on the highs with some music for me. So by not means perfect for $300. Definitely the MW07+ has a more universally great sound vs the Shanling though. I can find some music that exposes weakness of the shanling easier where it sounds ever so slightly like under water vs the MW07 which is more like using open back cans almost and sorta rare in IEM. Hopefully the app and such with the Soundcore get me exactly what I am after and only are a bit more than the shanling. I can do without Ambient if it's only going to be halfazzed anyhow. The Sony it's really nice setup, but biggest issue with them was fit and also the controls on the headset are minimal and seemed to often beep and then not do what they were supposed to. Seems pretty jacked up for the price when the shanlings just work with the touch controls.
