Very interesting....
Literally was about to post this.
I have the PNK version, on android. No new FW for about a month AFAIK.I tried installing the sound me app on my iPad to see if it is Android that is the problem. But no,no FW button on iOS. So it seems only the pnk version got the FW button
$420 shipped to US! Hard pass.That looks like the other model (TE-Z1PNK) TBH, someone here bought the wrong model due to confusing model names.
This is the proper model available in black and that weird Cowboy Bebop Pink/Red model:

Hifiman is still my top SQ IEM. EX and 4 NC probably get more ear thoughI think a lot of us have reached the point where we’re getting much more discrete about buying TWS. Probably most of the regulars here have multiple great to excellent sounding units now. It’s gonna take a real wiz banger for that $300 to $500 outlay. I’m not seeing anything that is a must have right now….
Not trying to bum anyone out here, just I remember how HiFiman was (top dog) with the R2R DAC, special Dedicated amp… etc…. Now it’s meh , off to something new….
Agreed. Problem is once you go with some iems plus an ifi go pod most tws disappoint at least for anything close to critical listening. For on the go, biking, gym stuff, I think we’ve reached the point of diminshed returns.Hifiman is still my top SQ IEM. EX and 4 NC probably get more ear though
Yes...I have the iFi Go Blu, a different type of design but similar in premise; that is why it is proof that all of this is subjective and according to one's taste and usage. Obviously, I have quite a few TOTL IEMs, DAPS, and Headphones, but when I am listening to TWS, sound quality is so important to me. Each one I have I use in different scenarios. Wanting to try new things is just the enthusiast in me.Agreed. Problem is once you go with some iems plus an ifi go pod most tws disappoint at least for anything close to critical listening.

Honestly, I'm starting to jettison some of my TWS and sticking with the tried and true EX, APP2 and Freeclip buds. Love to try the Avoits but not until they're avail here in the states. Not into spending a ton to import them.Agreed. Problem is once you go with some iems plus an ifi go pod most tws disappoint at least for anything close to critical listening.

TWS will always have a place in my life as I live in a highly walkable city environment, basically in and just around NYC. They can't be beat for many excursions I do.Yes...I have the iFi Go Blu, a different type of design but similar in premise; that is why it is proof that all of this is subjective and according to one's taste and usage.

Have an eBay seller offering $275 shipped for an open box set. What say folks here? Worth it?$420 shipped to US! Hard pass.
I agree with you, at this point, I’m trying new things but purely from an enthusiast/audiophile perspective, and not because I’m looking for an upgrade from what I have. I feel that we’re at the point that the stuff currently in the market will satisfy all but the most critical of people.Yes...I have the iFi Go Blu, a different type of design but similar in premise; that is why it is proof that all of this is subjective and according to one's taste and usage.
