Got this for a review, and was shocked by how disappointing these earbuds are. The cable is dirt-cheap and flimsy and even the package had nothing inside it aside from the earbuds, not even a pair of ear pads.
Soundwise, they are suspiciously similar to FSHANG Q5 - bloated with deep but distorted bass and overemphasized lower-mids that will give you a headache after a while of use.
You should not even consider wasting money on these earbuds.
Hard paperboard + soft plastic (clear)
Metal, ø16mm, metal faceplate
Plastic (matte), single-button
Metal, no strain reliefs
Silicone-coated (grippy), 112cm, semi-soft, mildly bent
Metal, straight, short, soft strain relief
Oddly enough, these earbuds are actually quite comfortable for earbuds. Getting a proper fit is very straightforward, and I could wear them for several hours straight without getting my ears all red and sore.
The bass isn't necessarily bad, it's actually powerful and deep. It's just very bloated, fat, disbalanced. The bass inflates the whole sound spectrum and everything sounds like it was recorded inside a hollow metal pipe. Deep bass content actually resulted in some rattle, so stability is not the best on these either.
You know that Facebook Web Messenger's annoying "blop-ding" sound? Now imagine that sound but super-boosted. The mids on these earbuds are brain-wrecking. It's so boosted that some sounds, male vocals in particular, are unbearable. Dark, fat, extremely overemphasized, these earbuds gave me a headache.
Dark and barely noticeable highs. They are so off-tone that I can't even separate detail out of the mix. The lows and the mids are simply overpowered in comparison to the highs.
