Does the ES4 come with the new upgraded cable? I thought I saw someone say it did, but I couldn't tell for sure when I ordered
Yes. It shows them in the pictures below the listing on the KZ store

Pretty sure my Zs10 is still in the mining the ore to make components stage. I have heard nothing of it and no updates on Ali tracking page.

Isn't all that QKZ does is rebrand other earphones? The Vk1 is literally the Trn v10 (it even has the same packaging) without the balanced armatures

The shell is obviously the same. Different drivers. Graphene for the QKZ. I love mine.

Have you put the number into 17 track? Mine has been put on a plane in China.... I think..does not appear to be in the UK yet.

yep, shows nothing. I put a note in with the seller, maybe they can tell me a bit more. I don't really start getting overly concerned until at least a month has passed but with others showing up now it makes me wonder.

Is there visually any difference between the two drivers inside the IEM?

Ordered the QKZ myself but often wonder how we can actually tell if it’s graphene or if they company has just put in a fancy new box and created some marketing posters to resell an old product

Hoping not!

I don't have both. Only the VK1. You can see through the shell so if someone has both they will probably be able to tell if they are different.

Don't worry, you will like it if you can get a good fit and seal. I have Starlines on mine.

They have no reason to lie about the graphene driver. They are not uncommon now. I have had my UiiSii CM5 for months and months and it has a graphene driver.

People sell zs6 for the equivalent of almost 70$ Where i live. So i am quite calm about the zs10. If they don't impress me, minding that i have a zsr on the way. I Just sell them easily.

Curious about them tho. As my last KZ was zst.

Anybody who believes in cables. Which sounds better on the zsr and zs5, the oxygen free one or the silver plated cable?

To me copper oxygen free adds lows. Silver plated cable adds mids and highs. The difference can be drastic.

Hmm i find that hard to believe that it's a different driver when the driver looks exactly the same as the original trn v10 just look at the marketing images
