    the outliers are an absolute steal at that price.

    Guys between sony wf1000xm3 and jabra elite 75t, which one has better sound and more comfortable to wear? Both available on amazon at reduced prices.

    Anyone know a good pair for under 100 euro? Especially ones that don't stick out much from the ear.

    Sony wf1000-xm3 has better sound but jabra elite 75t may be more comfortable to wear due to small form factor.

    I personally use Sony wf1000-xm3.

    The Cambridge Melomania arrived today - wow! Super sound. Really delighted. The packaging is also a thing of beauty - all cardboard, no plastic, completely recyclable.

    Got the stone/putty colour which is really nice for a change vs black

    How is the call quality? And are these comfortable to use for longer period lets say 2 hrs.

    Congrats! Do they stick out much? And how's the bass?

    Recommendations for ones that are still in stock? Ideally long life energy and not too expensive. Thanks

    Jabra Elite Active 75t for 129 euro on Spanish Amazon is a great relative deal!!

    I don't find they stick out much but maybe in the putty it just looks less noticeable than black. Bass is nice for me - not very heavy though or muddy if that's your thing Less bassy than my creative outlier airs for example but really clear sound.

    Haven't tried on calls, sorry, don't actually use them for the phone or zoom etc. Just music! Also have only had them in for 20 mins or so. Typically only wear them for a gym session so under an hour so not sure I can feed back on 2 hours+, sorry!

    Also meant to add they come with a good range of tips too.

    Check out the Mpow M30 Plus. Excellent fit, excellent sound and 100 hours of use from the "Plus" case which also doubles as a powerbank for charging your phone on the go.

    I went to have a look at these on amazon and thankfully it reminded me that i purchased a pair of them in september. I really do have too many pairs of headphones.

    I currently have

    1 X Samsung Buds Live which I love, use every day and mind carefully.

    1 X Mpow M19 ANC headphones which I use at my desk.

    1 X Mpow M30 buds which I have as backup to my Samsung's.

    1 X M30 Plus buds which I keep in my gym bag and only have to charge every 8-10 weeks or so.

    At least 5 or 6 pairs of older wireless sets of varying but fast depleting quality which were either cutting edge TWS 2-3 years ago (crap by today's standards) or the neckband "wireless" type which were of course wired between the earpieces. They worked grand apart from getting stuck if you'd a sweaty neck working out.

    I believe the correct number of headphones or ear buds a person should have is defined by the formula N+1 where "N" is the number of headphones you currently own :-)

    What are the controls like, are they easy enough to use?
    Enjoy them

    Mine just arrived this morning - like yourself, really impressed with the packaging.

    The buds themselves worked seamlessly out of the box and the fit for me was amazing. I've had dozens of pairs of wired headphones over the years which were constantly slipping out but these ones are very snug and comfortable so far. Would be confident working out or running in them.

    The sound quality is way beyond any other headsets I've had as well (these are my first true wireless one fwiw).

    Did a trial call with the missus as well and she said it was very clear so off to a good start :pac:

    I've come so close to buying them a few times in last few months, at higher price.... But have decided against on lack of usb c. Just years and years of different devices and different chargers, and finally a lot of my stuff seems to be converging on USB c.... Gonna hold off and wait for a version 2 of these, but they definitely look the business, read lots of reviews etc and all positive. Currently have the Samsung galaxy buds plus and they are great, so not in urgent need of another pair

    I bought the Cambridge buds and was disappointed by the call quality I'm sending them back and going for the anker liberty air 2 £55 on amazon today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 127 ✭✭Jlayay


    Been trialling a pair of Sony WH100-MX4 for the past 2 weeks. A bit of a letdown the “intelligent” system disconnects the music whenever you cough or clear your throat and the headphones are the most leaky I’ve used in a while to the point where my neighbours can hear what I’m listening to.

    These get very good reviews and Vankyo have a decent reputation.

    Call quality looks good in particular, which is a major failing in a lot of cases.

    rated for 5 hours but supposed to be a realistic 5 hours as tested at 80% volume. most manufacturers test at 50%

    on sale for £28.79

    Most feedback on here is of poor quality earphones, it's very much hit and miss when buying a pair up to €40
    Sometimes you can strike lucky, at least Amazon make it easy to return defective products.

    There's only so much you can get from a small package at such a low price. Some people have crazy expectations.

    https://www.scarbir.com/ is decent for reviews of these kinds of headphones.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,948 ✭✭✭0gac3yjefb5sv7


    Anyone know the smallest ones? Looking for something not bulky.

    Good site.

    From their reviews the Mpow Mbits is the best of the $25 buds.

    They are on Amazon now for £20 after £3 voucher applied.


  • Registered Users Posts: 275 ✭✭mindhorn


    Is there much of a difference between the F1 and E60?

    got these and tested them out

    phone call quality is exceptional - other person can hear you very very clearly.

    brilliant for podcasts

    for music listening they are very good but I would say that a good pair of the ones that can be inserted further your ear give you a more immersive bass sound. still very good.

    if you're looking for something for phone /zoom calls, podcasts and also music (but not audiophile level) then very good.

    could be used for running / jogging - won't easily fall out or anything like that.

    touch controls are very good and accurate for volume, start/stop and next/previous

    can't comment on battery life really
