    Hey BA! I haven't been on boards in quite some time with college and all that I haven't had much free time. I've signed up for tmart's newsletter in order to be alerted of new bargains and the likes. I just received an email yesterday for a pair of Xiaomi earphones which I just purchased myself. I intend to use these in the gym or places where I think my earphones may get damaged as they're fairly cheap so it doesn't matter a whole lot. I also might just leave them in my bag in the event that I accidentally forgot my earphones and would be great as a backup. They're currently €6.73 on tmart but with the code I received in the email it brings them to €4.80. I hope this helps somebody and I intend to be more active on boards from now on :D:pac:.

    Good if you have an Android phone. The volume controls of xiaomi headphones don't work with iPhones though. Something about the pin ordering being the other way I think.

    Had two pairs of these, left earpiece died on both after about two months each. All the Chinese sites have these for about € 4 or € 5.

    Yea, I just want to use them as backup earphones in case I forget my other ones but for consistent use I'd imagine they'd be a bit cheap.

    I have Piston 3s for about a year with no issues.

    I've had two pairs and both broke relatively quickly. I generally have liked the Xiaomi products I've got (in particular I've a few battery packs). The headphones seemed reasonable quality based on the look and feel but they just broke far to quickly. So I won't be buying another pair.

    Ordered just as back-ups. Can't really go wrong with the price
