Yes. Behind the ears type.

Anyone here owns both Creative Outlier Air and Sabbat E12 ultra? I am thinking to get something of $100 price range. Good connectivity, listening to heavy metal/rock, able to volume control. Just these three, the other functions I can close eye.

Using it with iPhone, sound quality boomy. Strong bass. Bass lovers will love it. Had to bring down the low frequencies in my EQ.

Anyone try Jabra 75t with Iphone ? Any issue or review for this sound quality etc

Spoiler

I got the hybrid version. Initial impressions wise, it sounds like the T1 IIRC, but I gave that to a friend so can't compare side by side. Sound wise I haven't really tested that many TWS or IEMs, but i think it's a V shaped sound leaning towards more treble?

For my ears, i feel like the treble can get a bit intense sometimes, and i find the upper mids a bit thin sounding? I would also prefer if the mids were a bit more forward overall. Bass is just okay imo. The main TWS I've been using recently are the Galaxy Buds, and i don't think the S1 sounds as good. But then again, it's many times cheaper. YMMV of course, since everyone got different preference when it comes to audio.

It also has that slightly metallic/steely timbre like other KZ hybrid IEMs I've used like the ZSN Pro, ZS10 Pro, ZSX.

They fixed a couple of shortcomings like the placement of the buds in the box are now in the right order (right side for right earbuds), it uses USB-C port for charging now, and the case is smaller than it was on the T1. But i still find it a bit thick, so can't really carry around in regular pockets.

I think there is still a jump in volume at around 80% like the T1 but doesn't seem as jarring as it was on the S1.

Fit is similar to T1, but i think the longer nozzle might not be everyone's cup of tea. For me still okay, but not the most comfortable TWS i've used for sure. Went for a jog with it this morning, and no issues with it dropping out.

Battery life is rated at 3 hours like the T1, and I got 3 hours 10 mins at around 70-80% volume before the low battery voice prompt came up. T1 i think I was able to get a bit more than that. Overall battery life still need to test.

Connectivity seems okay. Took it to a coffeeshop below MRT station for coffee, walked around shopping mall, had the phone in my back phone, etc. Didn't really hear any stutter. I only heard 1 split second stutter while I was on the bus only, which could be my phone issue also, so wouldn't really consider that an issue yet.

The game mode for lower latency does work, and as far as i can tell it's just lowering the bit rate of the audio. There is still a slight noticeable delay for games, but not as bad as it usually is for regular TWS. Maybe around the level of neckbuds like the jaybird X2 or better? Also I do feel like it sounds better on iPhone compared to android, probably just better AAC implementation. I feel the same with the Galaxy Buds too. :/

Anyway, so far I feel like it's a pretty nice overall package for the price. If have some coupon or coins you can use on shopee, can be even cheaper.

Why don’t get the JadeAudio EW1 instead?

I tried the demo at Stereo with my Sony IER-Z1R, sounded veiled and muffled? Anyway, will be going back this weekends to try the new Nuarl N6pro tws maybe will give the Fiio another try.

Hmm....sounds ok for mine, maybe z1r is more power hungry?

Woots! Top stuff there. The reproduction of music being transmitted by Bluetooth codec may result in sound degrading, as compared to using the supplied copper cable wire of the 1ER-Z1R.

Currently using sudio tolv for travel.
Wanna get one for gf, but people recommend Sabbat e12 ultra. Anyone using this can comment?

Wired is definitely better since it is direct from source. And most phones and music players output more power to the earphones than the true wireless earbuds where battery life is small and need more conservation.

I got mine from carousell. This guy sells quite a bit of chifi stuff and has ready stock although a bit more expensive than overseas shipment. But I usually don't like to wait so buy from him and can check on the spot for problems.
