Editor TWS1 Bluetooth headset simple unboxing and review

In the past two years, apple airpods have driven the TWS Bluetooth headset market, and overnight it seems that this type of true wireless Bluetooth is everywhere.

I have been using moto pulse over-ear headphones with Sennheiser CX3.00 wired headphones. This was originally a good combination, but the weather in summer is too hot, and it is really uncomfortable to use earmuff headphones. And I don’t know if the CX3.00 can’t stand the heat, but the cable is so soft that it seems to melt when I pick it up. It's sticky and uncomfortable, and the Bluetooth headphones used for night running have also died due to years of sweat soaking. It became logical to purchase convenient headphones that can take into account the needs of listening to music during daily life and night running.

If my phone were Apple, I probably wouldn’t have to worry about it, just bite the bullet and just use AirPods. The sound quality may not be the best, but when paired with Apple, Apple’s own machine is more reliable, but I am an Android fan, so I can only find it slowly.

Since the economy is very tight, the budget cannot be too high. It is estimated that the ceiling will be 300.

Most of the 200 or so Bluetooth headsets I bought earlier are about the same level of sound, mainly because they are a little loud but not too boring when running at night. Therefore, my expectations for this product are probably those of Tsai Chin. When "Ferry" came out for audition, it met the requirements if it sounded. If it sounded OK, it exceeded expectations. I have considered headphones from QCY, Xiaomi, Redmi, and various Huaqiangbei products, but in the end I was convinced because Edifier supports APTX.

I bought the headphones from Taobao for about 200 yuan. I won’t go into details. After all, they are not advertising.

It took 2 days to wait for express delivery from Shanghai to Shenzhen, which is considered normal.

As soon as I received the text message notification, I went to the inn to pick it up and couldn’t wait to unbox it.

When looking at the pictures, I always felt that this thing would be very big. After receiving the package, I found that it is actually quite compact.

Open the package, and inside it is just the headphone package plus a storage bag. By the way, this storage bag is getting worse and worse. I think the storage bag that came with Dafa earplugs when I bought it was really beautiful and useful. I still have one in use. It must be 10 years old. The bag that comes with moto bluetooth headphones is also very good. Not bad, I have a few on hand to hold various bits and pieces.

I digressed, let’s get back to the topic.

The design of the box is quite satisfactory. The packaging protects the headphone body well, but it is not beautiful.

Taking off the sponge, underneath are two models of earplugs, L and S, manuals, warranty cards and charging cables. There is not much to say. As for the instruction manual, which is quite rudimentary, it only briefly explains how to use it.

The headset itself is nothing special, but after reading the manual, I found that it should not be able to connect two devices at the same time. The information found online did not mention this, so it should be certain that it cannot support two devices online at the same time. .

When I asked the customer service, they probably didn’t understand my question, so they gave me a bunch of nonsensical answers and told me that this thing can be used separately for left and right ears, which is equivalent to two earphones. Yo shit like that.

The headphone storage box and charger is about the same size as the airposd. I don’t have AirPods on hand, so I can’t make a real comparison. There is no problem in carrying it.

Take a photo with a minifigure to feel the size.

Open the storage box and you can see the two earphone bodies.

The earplugs on the main body are size M. It can be seen that the quality is actually average. The connection between the headphone body and the storage box is magnetically absorbed, and two metal contacts are connected. Open the cover and take it out to turn it on, put it back on the storage box cover to disconnect and standby.

So much for unboxing. In fact, I am not looking forward to the packaging of this product at all. After all, you get what you pay for. Although a good packaging can make people more trustworthy, the machine The quality itself is what matters.

The general packaging image seems to be a common problem of domestic factories. I have bought many such products, but relatively little effort has been put into packaging. On the contrary, the packaging of foreign factories naturally makes people feel reassured. .

For example, the Jabra STEP, which I have drowned in sweat, is about the same price, but the packaging is really high-end, although the actual sound quality is just that, it can be loud.

TWS1 is quite good in terms of wearing experience. I use the default size M earplugs. After inserting them into the ear canal, I don’t feel much. The weight is also suitable, and it can be worn for a long time. You won’t feel tired, but it’s still recommended not to wear it for too long. It’s better to rest for about an hour.

Because they are in-ear headphones, they have a natural advantage in sound isolation. Once you put on the headphones, the world becomes cleaner. However, the common problem of in-ear headphones - the stethoscope effect is also there, although because there is less The wire will greatly reduce the stethoscope effect, but it will still occur when speaking, and the control of the headset is concentrated on one point of the body, making this effect very serious during operation.

In terms of data transmission, the biggest selling point of this headset is that it supports APTX decoding, making it possible to listen to lossless music. Although the music decoding ability of mobile phones is generally average, lossless is always better than lossy compression. Maybe you can hear the audience member seventh from the left in the fifth row eating melon seeds. Well, they are spiced.

In the past few days of use, the biggest feeling is that the mid-to-high frequency reproduction of his vocals is relatively good, especially the reproduction of vocals is very pleasing to the ears. As for the bass, it is relatively average, so don’t worry too much. Big expectations.

For this test, I took out the audition playlist at the bottom of the box, and also invited two active speakers, Sennheiser CX3.00 (purchased for 399 yuan) and moto pulse. Headphones (Okay, I’ll just use these two headphones, I can’t pick out the better or worse one.) Let’s do a comparison.

Sennheiser CX3.00 (Picture source network)

moto pulse (Picture source network, my black one.)

Sennheiser CX3.00 was purchased from Dongdong for 399 yuan. Moto Pulse was a gift when Moto Z was released. This product seems to be very rare in China. At that time, the manufacturer told us that it was worth 1,000 yuan, but the actual price should be about 400 yuan.

In terms of price, the Edifier TWS1 is lower than the above two headphones. To be fair, wired headphones and over-ear headphones have inherent advantages over in-ear Bluetooth headphones. It is more appropriate to use a device that is half a price or one price lower than Edifier TWS1, or at least a device of the same price, rather than a device that is at least one price higher, but unfortunately there are only these two headphones. I can feel sorry for the rambler.

Since Edifier is the protagonist, let’s introduce it a little more. First, let’s take a look at the boasts and basic parameters of the official image.

Let’s highlight the following points:

As a digression about bio-diaphragms, Sony’s E888 around 2000 was considered an artifact because of its bio-diaphragm. At that time, the price was around 500, which was my monthly living expenses, so I could only drool while looking at it.

The song list is as follows. All sound sources are in FLAC lossless format or 320kbps. This is not a professional test after all, it is mainly a subjective judgment of personal listening experience, so using these sound sources is actually enough, so I don’t go out of my way to do it. I found a fever audio source for testing. I don’t have a fever! There is no need to consider wind power or nuclear power or the impact of radio waves on sound quality.

Here are a few songs to focus on and express my feelings about:

Eagle's "Hotel California" 94 live version is a classic audition track and a classic Eagles track, tested by various A frequent visitor, I test the sound field of headphones.

0''-30'' mainly observes the guitar solo part and the restoration of audience applause.

30''-60'' mainly observes the reproduction of drum sounds and bass and the subtle performance of maracas.

Generally speaking, in the performance of "Hotel California", both are Bluetooth headsets. The gap between Edifier TWS1 and moto Pulse is still relatively large. Although Edifier's Bluetooth version, decoding protocol and other different All indicators are better than moto Pulse, but the comparison between over-ear headphones and earplugs is fundamentally unfair. Over-ear headphones have inherent advantages, so the large gap is expected.
