Also ordered (used to own the 2 pro), it is good you can power on from buds, does not state you can power off from them manually (ideally I need this so hope it does).

Has all controls so only issue could be the 8 hour battery life which unless otherwise stated will be at 50%, Anker have been stuck there for generations when it was ahead of other on 4-6hours but now others offer 10-15hours.

Multipoint is a bonus for me (Android phone) but disables if you use LDAC, pity they never keep the aptX as it will be SBC or LDAC (no need for cd quality+poor battery life+no mutipoint) on my phone and forced to AAC (overriding SBC) on my PC.

On one review they worked out they ANC+LDAC will be a little over 2 hours.

On Soundcore's site it says same .... so i just thought i'd check amazon and they showed up with delivery today so i ordered some.
Will post some unboxing pics when i get them and see how they compare to the 2Pro+ i have next to me

Awesome! Really interested in this comparison as I really like the L2P+.

Interesting stuff. Features are certainly an upgrade over the the L2P+.
I will keep an eye on other reviewers to see how’s the sound quality and this doesn’t really go in-depth re sound quality but since they have a great app I’m sure sound wise it will appeal to most people in that price bracket.

Amazon is showing the EQs as discounted to $360.

FIIL T1 Lite:

Rank: D


lots of bass (not as much as it graphs) that is muddy, recessed mids, warm and yet sharp (doesnt kill me instantly, but its bad) treble. Poor technicalities and unnatural timbre

Not worth a review....

My TWS journey might have ended as soon as it started... Sennheiser CX400BT better be good....otherwise I will say goodbye to TWS for another decade....

I haven't tried the others. I think if the MTW3's ever get released, they need to keep the case small like the CX and then add wireless charging. But for $179, that is a fair price and for what I paid, these are a steal. I put the ePro Large tips on them and they fit perfect in my ears. Even went for a 2 mile walk and had no issues. Had to turn off the ANC due to some wind noise but that's to be expected. ANC mics can pick that stuff up. Also, used them on a zoom and several calls and nobody complained.

I agree the CX plus are a steal. Flagship-grade sound and features at mid-range price.

Was just about to post this and you beat me to it. Good sound quality comparison and honest take about the app, ANC, Ambient.
I completely agreed about his take re the L2P+.

Another reason to wait out is actually for the sound. You have the name but earphones and esp. TWS earphones are a different story than full size. Not sure why his name translates unless he did a great earphone that I missed. Plus the sound stuff using buzz words and mostly talking about SoundID and "the way the artist intended" in not telling you about the speaker inside and why it will be good.

They sound marketed but not much evidence they will be amazing or anything. I am not convinced from reading these will beat the N6 Pro 2 for sound. They might even fall short.

They are only $200 which is not bad but, to me, they are a wait and see type.

According to that Engadget article posted, he was the designer of the HD580 and HD800. They're both over ear headphones though, so I'm not sure how it'll translate over to an in-ear TWS. I'm debating grabbing them from drop possibly.

I never tried the T1 Lite but I have the T1XS and they are excellent.
based on this review the T1 Lite should be very good though. Are you sure your unit isn’t faulty or something isn’t right with the seal? https://www.scarbir.com/tws/fiil-t1-lite-review

I know the T1XS seal is very strong and can cause the sound to be completely so check and see if that’s the case.
On a separate note, I also have the CX 400BT but they are still untouched as I have very little time nowadays to play around with them.

I read that review. Got massively dissapointed...

And yes, lol. I did get a seal.....

Decent channel matching, so I dont think it is defective.

Looking forward to the first user reviews on the L3Ps as I'm a big fan of the L2Ps for critical listening, but not for noise cancelling or sports of course. I'm not very impressed with the form factor with that "dual shell" that makes likely to protrude badly. I haven't really found any good reviews yet, especially one with "hear how ANC sounds". Too bad we lost "Jim from Jim's Review Room" !

Don't give up so easily. If you want audiophile balanced, look at the Nuarl N6 Pro or the Noble offerings. I'm sure others come to mind but the Senns will also be somewhat warm and muddy although some are reporting the CX is better in this regard.

I don't normally know what to think of El Jeffe but this review was pretty well done and I doubt he would shill for Anker over Sony/Apple and Senn. Hmm. Looks like a solid offering. Tempted. If there were available on Amazon 1 day for me, I probably would have already grabbed them.

"Audiophile Balanced" is usually bright-neutral to me.

I dont think I have a problem with the CX400BT´s tonality since I do love stuff like the Sony XBA-N3/Z5, LZ A7.
