TWS no need to get expensive one. The battery will degrade after 2 years.

Yah loh especially true in 2022 onwards iirc

I bought my first tws for $80 in 2019. Some local brand Alpha & Delta. Not bad thou, aptx, wireless charging etc all the bells and whistles. But after that I bought cheapo tws which are in no way inferior to the big brands

As my earlier post, not worth to get >$100 thou I also had a sony before and it's damn good. But I dun think it's 2x-3x better so it's not worth 2x-3x more as well

Moondrop too gimmicky

Can look a look at edifier and soundcore

Sad but true

Will notice the difference only if your source is good (lossless format) and in a quiet room. For daily commute, an average tws will do

几够力 it was the Outlier Gold that the 1 side died. The later one is Outlier Air V3.

now prefer headset, the sound seems better.

Sometimes I use wired earphone at home too. For outdoors/commute no choice have to use wireless since no more 3.5mm port

Oh I just bought another tws, qcy t17 for $18
