To enjoy commuting and free time while working (wait what?), I am looking for a fully wireless IEM. I love KZ, indeed as my daily driver IEM I use KZ ZS7, but it's less convenient to use while riding bike, going to places, shops, etc... So, since I love KZ, I am deciding between 2 KZ's. There are a few musts:
1. It has to send aptX HD and not AAC
2. It has to have the latest BT (5.2)
3. The charging box must have type-C USB
There are 2 candidates:
I've tried the SK10 (not pro) and I believe they are AAC, and also one thing that bugged me a lot is that the in-voice to announce things and warnings in the IEM is very low quality and sounds horrible. I don't want a voice like that all day. The BT 5.0 KZ cable has a nice voice, for example.
So there are 2: the top VX10 or the cheap option Z3. Which one you recommend and why?
Wasting $60 in a secondary IEM kind of hurts but if it's worth it I would buy it. I want to confirm the in-voice of these 2 is smooth and nice, and not recorded with a potato.
The KZ VX10 appears to be another product for the iFail followers (they prefer to pay more).
The KZ Z3 lists Aptx-LL, Aptx-HD and Aptx-Adaptive on the product description page.
KZ Z3 case has a better form factor, if you want to put it in a pocket. I very much doubt the mic in the more recent product, will be worse. Driver count is a bit passé and I don't like the look of it prominently on the outer face of the VX10. Even if the VX sounds better, you will be using SBC instead of Apt-HD. There is no contest, the cheaper option wins!
