Never purchased retails but have purchased multiple rep pods (mostly 1st gen) but mostly of low quality that has no working ANC and transparency mode.
Purchased this for 2,540 PHP or 47 USD on Shopee. It came with a free case and lanyard.
Shipping - Ordered on July 1 and it got delivered to me by July 9
Build Quality 10/10 - It’s pretty good, never had retails so I can’t compare if it’s 1:1 (you decide), but hinge does not move and it doesn’t close when shaking when opened, also feels premium — The case makes a sound when I charge or open the case, just like retails
ANC 8/10 - It does its job, however I could still hear other background noises slightly, though you could change its settings in the FlyCC all
Transparency 10/10 - It works as intended, I could hear when someone is talking to me and other background noises
Features 10/10 - Everything works, the volume sliding control is the best feature for me and works as intended, Head tracking also works but decreases volume (Idk if its the same as retails). The in ear detection also works, music stops when I take one ear piece out.
Audio Quality 10/10 - Not an audiophile but the quality is great, good bass, plus you could also change its EQ, I changed mine through FlyCC, Cinema stereo or smething.
Mic Quality 4/10 - Ass, it works but it sounds muffled and low at times. My cheap JBL earphones’ mic sounds better.
Overall 10/10 - Really good pair of reps, have not yet tested its battery but as of right now, the battery feels good, I don’t have the need to charge it yet for a couple hours. It also has fake Apple warranty (doesn’t rlly do much, since sme ppl asks if they got warranty) Rlly satisfied with these, can feel these would last a year or two based on its build quality alone.
