Headphoneus Supremus
It would surprise you even today's models, I live in a house with 3 feet thick sandstone walls and internal red brick walls.
That would never happen. All I'm looking for is the product to work as it's intended to.Any issues within reason, for example, leaving them in your pockets and putting then through a wash cycle isn't something that we could address.
Seems like that may be a defective unit, if your phone works with other TWS Earphones. Did you test the Fokus Pros with any other devices?I received my FoKus Pro a few weeks ago, and unfortunately couldn't get the right bud to connect (it worked perfectly with pairing process, but no sound out of right side). Cannot rule out an issue with my phone (kinda old Note9), as I've had some BT issues lately in car, but it's worked fine with other tws and very many BT speakers (I design/build my own). And, it also was not a great fit, but I feared that because my ears are small and maybe wierd. I'll say the Noble fp are probably the best, and definitely the most beautiful, tws I've seen, so I think they'd be great for most people, so not intending to make a negative statement or review of them (the left earbud SQ seemed as it would be very good, but hard to judge without full stereo). Hoping some day they can cram all that tech and multi-drivers in an even smaller shell though that will fit my small ears.
Dude, just get them. I promise you won't be disappointed by the sound. They are top notch

I'm sure better chipsets are on the horizon, but I wonder if 96 KHz would really be beneficial for TWS Earphones, especially with the technology at this point in time. I'd think that wired earphones would be preferable for such high sampling rates, but I'd be curious to know if the new Snapdragon Sound spec will make a noticeable difference for TWS.The price is a hell of a lot today this late in the day for a mid-range chipset about to be superseded by one that can do 24/96 and have SnapDragon Sound etc., it is a no go for me.
Btw, I've been testing the QCY T18 this week. Interesting thing about these is that they are the first to use the QCC3050 chip, which not only supports multipoint and AptX adaptive 96k, but also supports aptX voice on Snapdragon 865+ phones, doubling the bandwidth available for calls.
Which is all well and good on paper, but in implementation, unless I've got a duff pair, they're utter crap. Bass distorts the moment you nudge it up in wavelet, it crackles in Audible unless you select 96k which is a real ballache as you can't do it in the app like you can with Edifier. I have an 865 phone and the calls are crap, no better than any average set of earbuds and some way short of Edifier NeoBuds or OnePlus Buds Pro, and no obvious way of knowing aptX voice is actually being used.
The only saving grace is the multipoint is flawless!
In fact, they're so bad I'm going to have to buy another set through Amazon and just send them back if they do the same. Both sets at this rate!
I guess it won't be long now if the QCC3050 Chipset is coming on the market.Well yes and we already have LDAC that is 24/96 but it is still lossy and aptX Adaptive is 24/96 on the new Chipsets (up from 24/48) and even then, it is not as good as wired even if it was 24/192k (LDAC will support someday) it would still be lossy due to compression/conversion.
They claim the new chipsets will give up "more actual CD like sound"
Amazon Music HD sounds pretty good on my PC at 24/192k (Wired) via FiiO FH7's and over BT with LDAC (BTA 30 PRO+FiiO Neckband+FH3's) though it is limited to 24/96.

All solid choices, but my fokus don't fit great. The large nozzle is uncomfortable so I'll be letting mine go.Personally, I will be keeping my Fokus Pro, XM4s, and AKG N400s (yardwork). Might keep my AZ60s too, but that will be a future decision. What am I saying, everything is for sale for the right price
Anybody else have an opinion on the fit of the Noble Fokus Pros?All solid choices, but my fokus don't fit great. The large nozzle is uncomfortable so I'll be letting mine go.
I can't remember if you said you've tried the Noble Fokus Pros, or do you just mean fit is an issue in general, without custom molds?The fitment is really an issue, this is the reason we need custom TWS.
When is someone making one?
