a... i read again is Sabbat E12 Ultra. Ultra is new one? and it stated got aptx..

e12 ultra should be like this mah.
Sabbat-E12-TWS-Bluetooth-Earphones-9.jpg



unless camou is special packing.. e12 ultra also got solid colours.

I think so? I saw quite a few listing for the chrome colours as well. anyway if the seller does ship, if it's the non-qcc3020 version, then just request refund from shopee lor. haha but actually at that price even the realtek version is worth it liao.

I saw many good review for mifo o5 pro ver..

Saw many ppl say sabbat E12 have a lot of drops..

How does mpow t5 Vs mifo o5 compare?

After looking at many review of mifo o5, feel quite confident as it fair quite well in the Chinese market.. (watch some Taiwanese review)

MPOW t5/M5 finally arrived. Sound quality wise, mpow wins hands down. I have the Mifo O5 Pro btw. Mpows has basically better sound across the range. brighter highs, more forward mids, and better bass. The volume also seems to be able to go much higher. Aptx support is nice too of course. Mic quality is one of the better ones i've tested too for this type of design. The button is also nicer to use on the mpow if that's a concern for you.

But fitting wise i think the Mifo O5's fit is better still. Then in terms of the design, packaging, case, etc Mifo wins hands down. Metal case feels super solid, etc. Mpow looks like just another pair of nondescript cheap earbuds with a cheap feeling faux leather cover. lol.

Battery life can't say just yet in terms of single charge use, but should be about the same based on their rating. Overall battery life definitely Mifo O5 wins.

hahaha. it's just trying luck anyway. Anyway if he cancels also no loss on my side. He send normal E12, still worth it anyway. Send faulty product, just request refund from shopee. But if it's legit the E12 Ultra, then tan tio lor. :s13:

ooh. not bad. haha. I didn't really like how it sounded out of the box, and still felt Outlier Air sounded nicer. But it seems like software updates might have changed things. Maybe can try haha. has all the goodies too like USB-C and wireless charging.

Not sure if want to hoot this too, or get the mpow T5 :/ A bit worried since got reports of the E12 having problems after a few weeks of usage, and that it's hyped up on YouTube, when it's not really that good.

that was what made me go for mpow over sabbat. but then since it's cheaper now I just hoot to try lor. I've seen a few people saying there's connection issue, and for us not as easy to get it RMA or replaced. But another thing to consider is that phone itself plays a role too. Like with high end Samsung/LG phones, so far I've not really had major issues with any earbuds. But like Google Pixel devices, once in a while still will stutter no matter what earbuds I use. Often times I just need to turn bluetooth off and on again and it's back to normal.

there are probably a lot of folks who have no issues with it at all too. In the end might just be down to luck again.

haven't really tried sabbat so can't comment on sound, but they're both using the same qcc3020 chipset, so i think in the end connectivity wise might be around the same?

But have to say la, in terms of price, the sabbat more attractive. Design nicer, USB-C, wireless charging too. if the sound is as good as mpow, will be a good deal

Yea that's true I guess. The mpow's micro USB is really annoying, that's why I haven't gotten it despite all that race reviews. But to me sound is important. Currently using a Mi Airdots and found it to be more treble heavy. :/

do yall leave your buds in the charging case even when they're fully charged?

I do. So that when want to use it already got full charge inside. Nothing more disappointing than use halfway earbuds die. Probably not good for battery health in the long run, but because of how tiny these batteries are, it's going to go through a ton of cycles anyway. So rather just don't think so much and enjoy it while it lasts. Also that's why I not that willing to splurge too much on earbuds. lol.

Yeah, it's nice to use the same cable to charge phone and earbuds. but if it lasts as long as advertised, still not so bad la. for me maybe charge like once a week can already?

Mpow highs i think not too bad ba. so far i feel like it rolls off the higher end of the frequency, so not as fatiguing to listen to. But that also means not as detailed sounding as like the KZ T1, but of course this one is down to personal preference one. But overall sound quality better than the Mi AirDots for me. To me I feel Mi Airdots highs can be a bit too sharp and shrill sometimes?

Provided the seller ship the item and it's legit. hahaha. now still don't know the seller will cancel order or not. :s13:

Just saw this on aliexpress. USB Type C + Wireless charging for 30USD. Used their USB charger b4 and had no issue with it. Don't know how their earbud will sound.

Their wall chargers are super lasting but desktop charger really poor QC. Bought 3 and within few months all 3 can’t use.

Durability should be much about the same ba. both ipx7. the earbuds both plastic, and quite light also, so even if drop should be a big deal. Case wise Mifo is using metal case so if drop maybe will dent? and bigger battery and heavier too.

Mpow's case is pretty light and covered in faux leather, so drop around probably won't damage it much. But not sure how durable that faux leather will be, like whether it will become sticky or if you scratch it will you tear it or not. Both pros and cons ba.

Another thing that probably isn't that big of a deal is that if you put the earbuds case in a bag, the metal case might ding other things that you might have inside. Mpow case probably no issue. :s13:

I am interested to get either the MPOW T5 or Mifo O5.
Can I check how is the microphone or call quality for these 2 models?

Thanks

What is the difference between sub 100 dollar like mpow T5 and mifo o5 Vs those like jabra t65?

If not much diff den totally no need to consider those 200 dollar earbud?

Audio and video latency for mpow T5 is not very good..

On the other hand mifo o5 have close to no lag..

Able to confirm that ?
