If you're in the US (or the UK) I would recommend the Amazon Echo Buds, very decent SQ and best in class overall isolation thanks to the stellar passive isolation and "Bose ANR". Actually they isolate just as well as my QC25 cans. Earbuds like the Apple Airpods Pro have more impressive ANC but that's because they don't isolate passively very much at all and overall they can't compete. The Echo Buds are a well kept secret, due to limited distribution but also it seems because people hate the "old school" microUSB plug, something I have a bit of a hard to understand TBH...sure USB C is more convenient but it's really not the end of the world to have a microUSB cable handy !

AptX?

Meant no offense, it was simply suspicious for someone (who wrote like someone who have knowledge about IEM as either a regular poster or long time lurker) to join simply to write about 1 very specific TWS, giving a discount code for it and not even saying where they are coming from.
Saw shills in altcoin so many time, I'd call my reaction a side effect from previous experiences

No offense taken as in hindsight I should have introduced myself as a newbie as well. Just an FYI: Even though they're not that popular here, the original Bomaker Sifis are my SQ all time favorite TWS so far although I've gone through 4 of them due to water/ sweat damage. Atrocious call quality and a dubious IP rating aside..

Still waiting on my TWSNB2 from ali. They haven't registered in custom yet. It has been 22 days already.

Stuff like this makes me slightly happier than Shopee does direct China sales where I am. Especially after having my T1XS delivered to me (well, to my other house anyway, still gotta wait for tomorrow to actually be able to test 'em) in 5 days direct from China.

Edifier has a local presence so NB2 2-3 days tops. Unfortunately the lack of a useful (read: EQ included) App (and AptX, however much I know codecs are just... codecs) is somewhat dampening my enthusiasm on these over the Bold (which also has local distros), especially if Tron delivers and ACTUALLY ends up giving us AptXHD.

(Even when with the T1XSes I actually turned a blind eye to the whole no-AptX thing just to see how good they can still be without)

The "loose earbuds in case" thing with the Bolds are a tad concerning tho. Anybody else with Bolds having that issue or have they fixed it in later batches?

Other TWSes I'm keeping an eye out for us the Tao SL96, which nobody is stocking yet over here unfortunately.

Speaking of the NB2. Just saw these that look amazingly similar ... https://www.myearfun.com/headphones/earfun-air-pro-anc-true-wireless-earbuds-black
Only $64.00 with the code.

Two more weeks till they drop though.

Interesting, those do appear to indeed be exactly the Edifier TWS NB2. Has Earfun ever done a rebrand like that before? I was under the impression their products were their own thing, or at least were in unique housings.

That said, if they’re just a rebrand of the Edifiers, they’re still a steal at $64 for great reviewed earbuds except from a company with a US presence (so actual support and warranties). Too bad they’re not available sooner and on Amazon, I would love to try them and see how they compare to the Fiil T1 XS I have on the way. I know ill be really happy with the Fiil sound quality, but I’m definitely sacrificing ANC and call quality.

Well even the Bolds have "OEM rebrands" out there so it's pretty hard to say

If Edifier had a solid working app with plenty of features than it might be worth it to stick to the "original" but hmm...

this is a cool idea, integrating a TWS on a laptop

And what about the Edifier X3?
Is it better for electronic music?
Do they stay put in your ears when doing sports?

I'll reach out to Earfun and let you all know, I had communicated with them quite a bit about their previous products. I think between the support, packaging and manuals they make pretty good buds for the average end user.

Anyone saw the new UE fits TWS. It will have tips that will fit to the contour of our ears.

I'd rather pay for laptop performance than them losing space and money to include cheap TWS that I won't be using anyway, which will only leading to decreased performance and specs.

Doesn't seem very compelling. I don't see how those tips are different from regular silicone tips.
