To be frank, the new gen earbuds all have durability issues. I started out with Sony Extra Bass in my JC days, and it lasted me a good 5 years I believe. Then the next pair, which I got from Japan, spoilt after 1 single year. Gone are the days when you can use a single piece of hardware for more than 2 years. And given our habit, don't think many can resist the temptation to change for a new or better pair when something new gets released on the market. So perhaps the companies r devoting more resources to design newer products than trying to make a particular model long lasting.

 

Nothing against Beats. But after testing out a few of their products and owning one pair personally before, I really feel Beats is overpriced and the quality isn't even there. It is popular simply due to the endorsement from Apple and Dre. If anyone is adventurous, there are actually a lot of new brands from China and Europe which offers almost similar audio quality but costs only a fraction.

 

@theoldjaffa If you have the time, I recommend u to go to Adelphi and spend sometime at those audio shops to try out a few models, like do some parallel testing or even better, get a friend to go with you and do blind testing. (Make sure you have good audio files though, can PM me as I have some lossless music files which I personally converted into mp3 and don't mind sharing with you) Perhaps u will have different thoughts after u hear the sounds with your own ears.

I bought 2 diff brands from Amazon. Can't rem the other one, but one of them was the amazon basics one. Been a few months now. So far so good.Not expensive too. Only thing is you need other stuff to bring it up to free shipping levels

[ins1dious]

How's the X3? My X2 experience not so good reliability and longevity wise. Am still looking for a good running wireless earbuds.

 

My indiego crowd funded Crazybaby Air was a disappointment. Sound quality is great while there is connection, but it keeps dropping connnection.....

 

Shit... I started writing and it's turned out to be a thesis

His hyperbole at the end aside... these wireless earphones look damn interesting.

 

 

Wonder how much it costs and where it will come to Singapore

I haven’t use original Apple lightning cable for quite some time. All my cable from China $2 each. Some lasted 1 month only. Now, settle with Rock. So far, one in my car, one in office, one at home and one follows me flying. 6 months plus. So far so good.

[Vratenza]

Wow...looks amazing... Going to search for other independent review videos on them!
