    I bought it as a Chinese version and when I use it with aptx lossless, the treble extension is perfect and I can hear it as the clear best point.

      Ow, 22 Oct 2024Bluetooth isn't spywareYou never know until you read the whole source code from start to finish. Many malware disguise themselves as legitimate apps.

Gsmarena arena needs to clearly state all supported codecs on all tested earbuds AND SMARTPHONES. Jack is dead sadly. So we need proper information about supported codecs to safely navigate through the current BT mess.

              You guys might want to also review the call quality, especially in noisier environments. It's a thing that a lot of reviews overlook and which is very important for a lot of people.

                Anonymous, 21 Oct 2024Where is lc3 test?I think GSMArena need to update their bluettoth earbuds test to test SBC, AAC, LDAC, LHDC, LH3, and AptX

                and have battery life based on that test
                and also compare the sound quality with each codec

                  With great power comes great responsibility
                  I mean, of course it used more battery.
                  Would you use you're computer on power saver mode to play AAA games?

                    So true.
                    One of my aunt is like that
                    instead of saying "my phone can do this" or "do this on you're phone"
                    She always said "iphone can do this", "do this on you're iphone"
                    😂😂😂😂

                      Have you tested only with useless Apple devices or tried them with new Xiaomi smartphones?
                      Have you tried it with Xiaomi 14T Pro?

                      The thing is in LDAC codec at least that is not supported on fancy useless Apple gadgets as Iphone or Mac
