    I think it depends on the devices really. For example I have bt headphone which are at least 3 or 4 years old and they work fine with a 1st gen firestick.

    Saw these.....

    Thought they looked a bit weird, but then thought to myself that they might be very discrete. :pac: :o

    I knew, i had seen something similar to these before: -




    Also spotted QCY T1 with 2600mAh Charging box on that site today, unfortunately don't ship to UK/Ireland and shipping to US with AP+VAT doesn't make sense.

    The creative outlier one have dropped to €19.99. I think that's the lowest they've been.

    Looks good, I've ordered a set. Pity I didn't think to get you to refer me, you would have got something back from Creative. Thanks though, they look great for the price.

    Ordered mine on night of 26th Dec and arrived yesterday. They're sent by DHL

    Anyone who has the I10 TWS care to comment on battery life? I'm probably going to purchase them next. I have the I9S version but the lack of touch control and the flashing LEDs are making me want to upgrade. I get about 90 - 120 minutes from the I9S.

    Cheers, ordered a set today.

    Got a pair of these today

    With some foam tips (bought extra, they come with the usual silicon) they are very nice indeed.

    I got the Creative Outlier, and for the price they are very good.

    I have the Bose QC35 II, and I find the sound perfect on them. For the Outliers, they are a bit "tinny" but not as bad as other cheap models. It's fine when I turn up the base on the Android equalizer.

    Is there any way of automating the equaliser settings on Android depending on the headphones used? i.e. if I connect with my Bose, it will automatically use the default setting, and if I connect with my Creative, it will use a higher bass setting?

    Thanks

    Was wondering what are good for running?
    Always struggled to get earphones that stayed in while running.

    The ear hook phones I've found the best, but it seems that design hasn't been adapted much for wireless.

    Ya , I was curious to find such a lack of outer ear hooks.

    Inner hooks seems to have take over. The best earhooks I had were the Philips ones , I used to buy multiple pairs at time. They were great ,secure for running but didn't last very long.

    Other out hooks like the anker are too thin I find they don't secure enough , they are common design, but no where as secure as old Philips ones. Philps latched around ear. Sony do something like it in wireless the MDR

    Why? Do they take more than a month? I'm leaving on Feb. 10th so there's still about 35 days till then.

    At this time of year, anything from 6 to 8 weeks for cheap aliexpress china post options. If you paid for DHL, you might have it sooner.

    I'm still waiting on an item ordered in the beginning of November, but think it may have been lost in transit.

    See this thread: - Anyone still waiting for stuff from China?

    Just on the Creative outlier one deal, I did the following

    1. Went to the website and registered a new account.
    2. Got the referral code for €5 discount and €5 friend referral.
    3. Ordered 2 x Outlier ones for €19.99 each (+€4 postage) as non registered user (order individual earphones, not as a combi pack or it won't work)
    4. Applied referral code at check out

    Both earphone sets came to €29.98 total (+€4 postage).
    €10 credit for future purchase (available on 14/02/2019) was also added to my account for the referral code.

    T-i8s True Wireless Bluetooth V5.0 Earphones with Charging Box

    €12.87 €18.88 32% off ~~~ Limited time deal, only 286pcs left.


    Unknown brand and can not find any reviews, might be worth it at the price for some?

    At this time of year, you might be waiting for them to process your order.

    I have two orders, 12/26/18 and 1/2/19 that are still showing processing.

    I'm jealous I didn't think of that, or even notice they gave a referral code. Still mine are due tomorrow so shipping is pretty quick, looking forward to trying them.

    Must be doing something wrong here, but where do I get the referal codes?
