In the writeup, which I definitely appreciated, including the excellent “Feudal Positioning Strategy” genre of computer games, I think Charlie “alluded” to the price, not “eluded” - the price didn’t escape him, he referred to it.
The one star reviews on Amazon tell the real story. Basically: These have decent sound, but everything else is terrible. Cheap build quality, frustrating use of the case, only 3 hours per charge, and a lot of what appear to be fake reviews.
@Lynnerizer@pmarin Same, and currently, anything that remains unopened I know what is in it, so I need some more that I wonder/can’t remember what I bought
@grandmoo@Lynnerizer@pmarin Kind of like Christmas or birthday all year round, huh?
(But the presents are mostly from someone who doesn’t know you well or doesn’t like you.)
I got a BOC today and it was the worst one I ever got. Like seriously, the talking woot monkey was pretty funny much the best thing! But not good enough to hear what it says, I didn’t pull out the protective plastic strip for the battery! 🪫
Yeah I think you’re correct. I kept hearing those howler monkeys I’d see on that TV show Naked and Afraid.
TBT… After I said talking I kinda knew I should’ve said screaming monkey and I just got lazy and didn’t feel like changing it. 🫣 Thanks for keeping me honest Kyeh, and on my toes! Lol…
@AROAH I agree. And the implication that you can hear both the phone and the computer at the same time has not been my experience with bluetooth headsets ever. It’s one or the other.
So can you hear both the TV and the phone at the same time? I have a different set that is supposed to do that but I haven’t been able to get it to work. I was going to call Sony support and ask them for help but I’m wondering if these would be an option if that doesn’t work out.
@AROAH@LocoLobo79@Lynnerizer@Wireball_
I’m really not sure if that dongle would work on your TV. I suspect it probably wouldn’t have support thru the USB connection for that feature.
Ironically, I just now happened across your reply (from ONLY 2 hours ago) while searching through my TRASH emails looking for something else. Go figure…
I’m not understanding though…
Have support through the USB…?
@Lynnerizer
While there IS a USB connection on your TV, it is generally designed to input data from something like a USB drive etc. It will not necessarily be equipped with the internal programming necessary for it to output a signal to the earbuds.
@AROAH@Wireball_ Got my Pair, in the instructions it says you will hear the ringing of your phone at the same time as the usb audio, but when you answer the call, it switches to the phone and will switch back when ending the call, so its just a notification beep you hear, not dual audio.
@Wollyhop
Exactly. But I must admit, I have been using earbuds when I work outside… especially in the summer. Headphones just get too freaking hot and the sweat becomes intolerable in the South.
Maybe the description should be ‘noise reducing’ or ‘noise blocking’ and not ‘noise cancelling’? There is no evidence of active noise cancellation in the description. Any anything you stick in your ear canal will have some ‘noise reduction’…
@customers We wanted to make a clarification to the original title we had on this sale – these earbuds are noise reducing, not noise cancelling. They do have a noise cancelling mic. If this spec difference changes your mind, please feel free to cancel your order today. Thank you!
Just yesterday I found myself wanting some more 2.4 gHz earbuds for my Steam Deck to replace some JBL Quantum buds, these fall well within my risk/reward spectrum so I’m in for a pair. If they work out I might grab more if they show up on Sidedeal.
So meh for me. I don’t like headphones or earbuds as many here know since I’ve gifted all that I have gotten in irks. I just don’t like anything in my ears, I have to tolerate earplugs when I’m at the gym since the music is so loud.
Ok, what the fuck, yesterday I got on a train and there was some Asian guy extoling the virtues of his $25 gaming earbuds and expressing appreciation for their low latancy. He sounded like an advertisment. I even pointed this out and we laughed about it. And now these headphones are here. Are they the same ones. DID I RUN INTO CHARLIE LIU!!!

Hey, got mine. Plugged the USB-C dongle into my Intel Mac. It fits perfectly. It shows up as “USBAudio1.0” and everything just works. Sound quality for online meetings is good! Thanks, Meh!

@algae1221
That’s excellent!
@algae1221 @yakkoTDI I’m
stealingborrowing that diagram./8ball Do I need another pair of earbuds to add to my collection?
Outlook not so good
Too bad, I bought them anyway. I hope they don’t suck.
Uh, not the usual meaning of the spec?
Not sure my old ears even do 2.4 KHz anymore.
@phendrick I would hope so. Maybe you were thinking of 24 Khz?
@ohhwell hunh? What’d you say?

@Knightp IAMJOYfully passing then.
HEAR HEAR…
I’m about ready for a Meh-rathon!
@Lynnerizer meh too.
The number of unopened boxes in my entryway has gotten critically low.
@Lynnerizer @pmarin Same, and currently, anything that remains unopened I know what is in it, so I need some more that I wonder/can’t remember what I bought
@grandmoo @pmarin
Exactly!
But… TBT, if I leave the boxes there long enough I forget what’s in them anyway!
@grandmoo @Lynnerizer @pmarin Kind of like Christmas or birthday all year round, huh?
(But the presents are mostly from someone who doesn’t know you well or doesn’t like you.)
@grandmoo @Kyeh @pmarin
Yes, almost…
I got a BOC today and it was the worst one I ever got. Like seriously, the talking woot monkey was pretty funny much the best thing!
But not good enough to hear what it says, I didn’t pull out the protective plastic strip for the battery! 🪫
@grandmoo @Lynnerizer @pmarin Do they talk? I thought they screamed! So maybe it’s good you didn’t try it.
@grandmoo @Kyeh @pmarin
Yeah I think you’re correct. I kept hearing those howler monkeys I’d see on that TV show Naked and Afraid.
Lol…

That quoted Amazon review sounds completely legitimate, definitely.
@AROAH I agree. And the implication that you can hear both the phone and the computer at the same time has not been my experience with bluetooth headsets ever. It’s one or the other.
@AROAH @Wireball_ These do come with a dongle. It’s not using two Bluetooth connections to hear both at the same time.
@AROAH @LocoLobo79 @Wireball_

@Wollyhop Oh! That must have been a difficult delivery for your mother!
You know what wireless band Bluetooth uses? 2.4GHz

@giorgitd You’re right – will be emailing customers to make sure that’s understood. Thank you!
So, the noise canceling applies only to the mic?
