Thanks for this, they look interesting

The M04s has arrived and it paired easily with my IPad and iPod Touch.
Build really isn't too bad for that price. All plastic except for the click stops which are metal.
They are light and comfortable to wear and my ears fit inside the cups.
Sound is geared towards the bass. Bass levels are raised but it has a pleasant, euphoric sound which allows you to walk around for a reasonable distance. I went upstairs with my iPod downstairs and all was well.
The connection for a wired connection is in a slightly weird place so that it sticks out backwards from the left cup. A kind of fix might be to have a right angled plug there, but it is placed quite high on the cup.
It's good for that money although treble isn't quite as extended as I would like. I must admit that I am interested in the M08 now which shows more treble extension in the figures. I'm just a little wary of the connection to the band to the cups though. It looks a little fragile.
M06 looks like a tougher connection but I'm not sure what the fr is for that model. The m08 has 20 - 20,000 quoted but it's not clear with the others tbh.
There are a lot of different models in the range and since I am very unfamiliar with Ausdom, I can't really work out the hierarchy. You would assume that the m06 is better than the m04, but prices seem all over the place so I'm not really certain which is top of the range and which is bottom. There is certainly a lot of choice.
Perhaps Ausdom could explain differences between models? They range from 4 to 8, so there are 5 models to choose from, but no indication of frequency response or differences on Amazon.
Why for instance, is the m07 cheaper than the m06 but the m05 is more expensive than the m06? I can't see any logic. It's very unclear and stops me buying them to review tbh. The m07 is way down in price and yet its number suggests that it should be close to the m08.
The m04s is good at the price, although personally, I'd prefer a stronger treble.
Oh, I see. I thought that the m4s was an updated version of the 4.
I just don't get the pricing of these with the model numbers. On Amazon, the 6 is dearer than 7, and the 8 is more than the 6. The 5 is the most expensive so going by price, it looks as though the 5 is the op of the line and 7 is bottom.
The order by pricing is ...
5, 8, 4s, 4, 6, 7 I think.
It's not in any logical order.
So now I'm wondering what is the difference between the 4 and 4s?
There needs to be more info about the differences between the models, because it's not really very obvious.
Why would anyone need a budget, wireless, fullsize headphone? I suppose that market is for the casual and ignorant who really want a Beats but don't have much money for it. Maybe the market is huge, the market for crappy overpriced headphone endorsed by a rapper is huge so this may follow on its coat-tails.
You are correct, the M04S is an updated and upgraded version of the M04. I guess that's why I think of them as two different models. The original M04 was Bluetooth 3.0, and the M04S has Bluetooth 4.0, and NFC pairing. Also, according to a review of both versions of the M04, the "S" version earcups have red foam on the inside. The older version has black cloth. I prefer cloth, as foam degrades after awhile. I can't get wise to the pecking order, either, LOL.

...and treble extension goes to 10kHz, not 20.
