Wireless Earphones

Kayshee123 · 2017-09-29 08:31:45

Hi everyone, I was just having a browse through some wireless earphones as I need some for the gym. I had skull candy wired ones but I stepped on them and the cable broke. So after that I said I’d get a wireless pair. I found a fully wireless pair, no wires connected the earphones together. The reviews seem pretty good and…

You enter it on the Cart page before you enter the payment details. go back to the Cart page look on the bottom below the subTotal for the Promo Code line. Click the (Enter Code) link and then enter the code

Have you tried Amazon? or .es

^^^ The only problem with these Chinese Knock off's, there is clones of clones. So put luck if you get a good version.

You probably get them cheaper on Aliexpress.

Received the i10 tws from geekbuying earlier in the week.
Sound is ok, not crystal by any means but not bad either.
Been working ok off first charge although it is early days.
Case is a bit flimsy and cheap, looks like a dental floss box.
All up, good value for ~€18, although some of the other ones recently posted for similar prices look a like they could be a better buy

I got mine from AliExpress and have opened a dispute with the seller. Left earpod has stopped charging. They've just been flaky since I bought them.

I ordered mine on the 30th also. Just wondering if yours were on pre order? Mine are pending while waiting for more stock and says will not deliver until 15-16th May. Did yours say the same at time of order?

Mine was a preorder. I imagine adox's was as well. I ordered mine on the 26th, less than an hour after i got the email from creative announcing their release.

Most likely ran out very early so. I'll just have to be patient. My wife put my Bose soundsports in the washing machine. I'm badly missing music when out running. 😖

New QCY TWS model? + More varieties of iXX TWS!

QCY QS2 TWS Bluetooth V5.0 Headphones 3D Stereo Sports Wireless Earphones with Dual Microphone
Discount Price: € 24,50 / piece -70% 2 days left
^^^ Only available in white at present.

Discount Price: € 25,51 - 27,47 / piece -46% 3 days left

Edit: - Youtube clip removed

QCY is an abbreviation of Quality, Creative and You as the company aims to bring quality audio to the masses. The trendy and fashionable designs of its products clearly indicate that this company is mainly targeting the youth.

QCY may possibly be a Sub Brand of Xiaomi, or where financed by the same. That is why your now starting to see sellers name them as 'Xiaomi QCY', which is a pity they didn't use the research of it to produce better Mi AirDots?

I'm still getting great use out of my QCY Q29 Pro, (Bought Nov. 11 2017). Was on a lookout for the T1 with 2600mah box, but don't think they where ever easily/globally available. The above is even better, but don't need to upgrade yet, as only one of my devices have 5.0!

Still waiting on my order of The bone conductor version
^^^ Got fooled by tracking and thought I would have got it last week.

Excellent. Pairing was simple. I followed the steps in the email they sent me. Good isolation as well. There are people in the room around me talking and i cant hear them.

My Creative Outlier Air order is currently: Pending Payment Verification

They are due to be delivered around the 20th of May, does the above just mean they are pre-ordered for the new batch?

My Outliers arrived as well. Set them up here quickly in work and had a quick listen.

Pairing was simple, like any other Bluetooth device.

Only had a quick listen to Spotify and sound seems decent. Easy to fit in the ears and isolation seems very good.

Not sure how loud they go. I was on about 70% Id say and wouldnt call it ear busting.

Need to try them in the real world.

The lack if a neck band is great though. Those things really annoy me.
