A-Jays Four +: Complete test of the best intra-auriculars to less than 100 euros!

sivertime — Thu, 22 Jun 2017 13:58:34 +0000

Launched four years ago, the a-Jays Four + were remade a beauty. But can the new in-ear Jays boast of having the best price / quality ratio on the market? Answers in this complete test.
The Swedish Jays regale us. After removing the cable from its u-Jays, the manufacturer decided to refresh its a-Jays Four + . These new intra-auriculars promise better ergonomics than their big brother and above all, a better sound quality. If it is difficult to see aesthetic changes on these new in-ear, it is easy to realize that the cable of the a-Jays Four + is less rigid , which would ensure a better lifetime to earphones. But to stand out, the a-Jays Four + also have other advantages.
On the comfort side, the a-Jays Four + send heavy. Very light, they are easily forgotten in our ears. And if their format can also disturb the smallest and most sensitive ears, I want to say that is always the case with intra-auriculars. To finish with the ergonomics of these headphones, one can be interested in their remote control. More efficient and better finished, the latter offers all the commands you can dream of . But it’s probably audio level that the a-Jays Four + will put everyone in agreement.
The a-Jays Four + emphasize the bass and frankly, it sends heavy. And thanks to their passive isolation, you can enjoy music even in transportation. Which is pretty cool for the price of these intra-auriculars that are marketed, on average, under 65 euros. The sound is warm not to say that it tutoie perfection. But if I’m in love with these a-Jays Four +, I can also find them faults. I regret that their cables make as much noise in each of my movements. All in all, the a-Jays Four + have one of the best quality / price ratios on the market . If you want to shopper them, it’s by HERE that it happens.

How the AirPods have revolutionized the way I listen to music!

sivertime — Mon, 03 Apr 2017 15:26:07 +0000

It’s been 3 months now that Apple AirPods are available in the Apple Store. I have tested them throughout this period, despite my sensitive ears, and here are my impressions.
The Apple AirPods are putting everyone in agreement. Small, practical and ultra-light, Apple’s wireless headphones have revolutionized my way of listening to sound. In my ear they throw it! These headphones or hands-free kit make me bluntly believe that I play a leading role in an action movie . Their smallness is matched only by their comfort. It was not for nothing that they were validated by the actress Kristen Stewart and the footballer, Antoine Griezmann . Far from being as intrusive as in-ear headphones, AirPods slip easily into the ear. Better still, they do not fall. I shook my head, danced like never before and even ran behind a round ball,
Apple, airpods, wireless earphone, test, printing, availability, purchase, beatsx, sensitive ear, airpods test
But what really amazed me about these AirPods is the Apple W1 chip that offers a magic twinning with your iPhone / iPad . It also offers sound quality and good autonomy. This chip also brings new features such as dual optical sensors and the accelerometer. With this technology, the earphones are activated – just as you slide them into your ears. Simply remove them to pause the music. And I could do the same thing, removing only one earphone. That’s really nice.
Another surprise on these AirPods, the total absence of controls on the headphones. After realizing that I could control them via the iPhone or by voice command, thanks to their built-in microphone, I enjoyed releasing “Siri, mounts the sound” or ” Dis Siri, next track ” or, “Say Siri, I want to listen to Lacrim” . Well, Apple’s voice assistant always asks for excellent diction and has trouble identifying some English artist names, but the result is really not bad. Siri can also be called by tapping twice on a headset, it is convenient to fix an appointment in our calendar . And to slip into the skin of James Bond,
Simple to use and comfortable to the ears, the AirPods give a glimpse of what Apple can do after removing the jack from its iPhone. If they appear as the best allies of the iPhone 7 and Apple Watch, Apple’s wireless headphones can also delight all people with sensitive ears. Personally, I often suffer from ear infections. Fortunately, it calmed down. But above all, the AirPods are easily forgotten in the ears . Today, it is impossible for me to return to wired technology. And even if the AirPods appear out of price (179 euros, official price on the Apple Store) , they are worth the price.

AirPods: These alternatives to Samsung and KitSound wireless headphones

sivertime — Thu, 30 Mar 2017 14:37:00 +0000

While Apple announces 6 weeks delivery time for these AirPods, you can opt for other wireless headphones. The Gear IconX and the Comet Buds of KitSound are very nice alternatives.
Buying the AirPods is not necessarily easy. Apple’s (really) wireless earphones are still handicapped by fairly long delivery times. At the time these lines are written, it takes 6 weeks between the purchase and the receipt of the product, nothing but that! But fortunately, several alternatives can make you zap the AirPods that have been validated by Antoine Griezmann . These solutions are called Samsung Gear IconX or, Comet Buds by KitSound. And meltyStyle tells you more now.
Samsung Gear IconX
While the AirPods have a luxurious side, the Samsung Gear IconX headphones are rather designed for sportsmen. They are equipped with a heart rate monitor and an accelerometer, in addition to tactile controls. Samsung promises that they will resist sweat and splashes, while there is no sign of waterproofing on the AirPods. Supplied with a box that also serves as a charge, these Gear IconX can be used with any smartphone or tablet compatible with Bluetooth . Better yet, you can leave your smartphone at the apartment and record up to 1000 songs in Samsung’s headphones. If you want to get them, it’s HERE that it happens.
KitSound Comet Buds
If you want to flip it with wireless headphones without slamming all your savings, the Bluetooth KitSound Comet Buds are designed for you. They can offer you high quality listening while being both modern and stylish. Their autonomy of approximately 4 hours is impressive and of course, you will be able to listen to good sound without any cable nearby. And you can offer them by HERE , at only 58 euros.

One week with the BeatsX, headphones that can shade the AirPods!

sivertime — Fri, 17 Feb 2017 17:42:57 +0000

For now a week, I test the BeatsX headphones. The last “jewel” of Beats, the subsidiary of Apple, throws. Autonomous, practical and equipped with the W1 chip, it can hurt AirPods.
Since a few days, I listen to a lot of French rap through the BeatsX. These Bluetooth In-Ear Headphones represent the latest addition to the Beats range. And they throw it, as I could see when I first took charge of these headphones . Sound level, listening is cool, even when pushing the headphones in their last entrenchments . The BeatsX can even boast of a good noise reduction. The low and sharp frequencies are (very) well reproduced and especially, the Beats intra-auriculars have not been victims of the slightest cut. But that’s not all…
BeatsX, Beats, test, price, printing, wireless headphones, airpods, apple, unkut cap
Equipped with the Apple W1 chip found on AirPods, PowerBeats3 Wireless and Solo3 Wireless, the BeatsX look oklm to the smartphone , especially if it is an iPhone, an Apple Watch Or an iPad (in short, everything that is headed). Connected by a Flex-Form cable that can be shaped as you please, the BeatsX earphones offer a true feeling of comfort. And when they are removed from our ears, they automatically hang down the neck. The two headphones can squarely stick to form a kind of chain thanks to the magnets that equip them. It is really very convenient. Very light, the BeatsX are easily forgotten and can accompany you oklm during your day .
Ah, I almost forgot the essential. Level autonomy, the BeatsX offer – on paper – 8 hours of tranquility . And I can assure you that this is the case, provided you do not put the volume fully. If you prefer big decibels, the BeatsX can provide 6 hours. But what is great is the ability to recharge them 100% in only 45%. Yes, fast charging changes a lot in life! Overall, the BeatsX are doing very well . These earphones that are the cheapest of the Apple “family” W1 can (easily) compete with the AirPods that I could test with an iPhone 7 . Available at 149,

First BeatsX, the wireless headphones equipped with the W1 chip from Apple!

sivertime — Fri, 10 Feb 2017 18:13:03 +0000

This is the big day. The new BeatsX, equipped with the Apple W1 chip found in AirPods, are available. We had the opportunity to take them in hand and here are our impressions.
They are there ! Expected for many months, the BeatsX (or Beats X eh) have just appeared on the shelves. Equipped with the Apple W1 chip that is also found in AirPods, PowerBeats3 Wireless and Solo3 Wireless, these small in-ear Bluetooth have easy pairing with the iPhone. Aesthetically, Apple and its subsidiary Beats have not invented hot water this time since the BeatsX remind us of the famous LG Tone. But the resemblances stop there! The headphones are connected by a Flex-Form cable that can be shaped as you please , which is impossible with an LG headset. And stuff of egg, this special cable is, in turn, equipped with 2 weights to keep the headphones close to your neck while you jump everywhere.
And once you want to remove your BeatsX, they will hang down your neck. The two headphones can squarely stick to form a kind of chain thanks to the magnets that equip them . It’s really cool and very practical. Very light, the BeatsX are easily forgotten and can accompany you oklm during your day. As for the pairing, it is done in a very simple way: just press the Bluetooth button of the headphones to start the process. As soon as the BeatsX panel appears on your iPhone screen, and it’s fast enough, just touch Connect and wait a few seconds. Exit the galley of pairing in Bluetooth that planted once in two! Best of all, the BeatsX are also compatible with Android, just like the AirPods I tested with an Honor 8.
Music playback from the iPhone is no problem, according to my first tests on the Apple Music with pieces of PNL and Damso. And like the AirPods, the BeatsX are equipped with a microphone and react very well with Siri . Otherwise, we also find a remote control on the Flex-Form cable to control what you listen to but good, it has already seen in other manufacturers although (it must be admitted) is very practical. This first rapid take-over is promising. We will return to the details of how the BeatsX works with a Mac an iPad and an Apple Watch in our test, as well as the other aspects of these in-ear, which are available today!

Sony MDR-1000X, the true competitor of the Bose QuietComfort 35!

sivertime — Thu, 02 Feb 2017 17:59:03 +0000

The Sony MDR 1000X has it all. This new wireless headphone with Noise Reducer can shade the Bose QuietComfort 35 and tell you why!
After Apple has decided to remove the jack from his iPhone 7, Bluetooth is more “hype” than ever. The wireless headsets have (re) become trendy. And this type of equipment continues to develop, like the MDR-1000X from Sony which rivals the famous Bose QuietComfort 35. In addition to its well-designed design, the new helmet of the Japanese manufacturer mixes, with Brio, robustness, lightness and flexibility. Equipped with thick pads, the MDR-1000X (which is available in beige and black colors) easily adapts to all body types . But it’s probably its noise reducer, simple to use and effective, which really impressed us.
The Sony MDR-1000X delivers high battery life (more than 24 hours) and a highly efficient outdoor noise reduction system, especially in public transit. His listening outside without noise reduction function is really cool and the ability to control the music is via a touch area on the helmet has a magical thing. In short, everything is good to justify buying this headset noise reduction . Only black dot for this headphone that officially costs 400 euros, the lack of treble and an application to control the sound from the smartphone. Let me now compare it to the Bose QuietComfort 35 …
Unlike the MDR-1000x, noise reduction can not be disabled on the Bose QC35. Level of comfort, the helmet of Sony has nothing to envy that of Bose. At meltyStyle, we just regret that its pads are not removable. In summary, the MDR -1000X is a great Bluetooth headset with good sound quality and excellent battery . If its features are enough to overshadow the Bose QuietComfort 35, its higher price (400 euros against 380 for the Bose headphones) is a barrier to purchase. Hopefully Sony will see it again soon!

magictr — Thu, 29 Dec 2016 21:02:20 +0000

Samsung will adopt the same strategy as Apple, which had unveiled its AirPods at the same time as the iPhone 7? This is what a rumor seems to assert.

This option, however, seems not very possible since many manufacturers increasing profits through accessories sold separately.

This is why the AirPods can compete with the Beats Solo3 Wireless

magictr — Fri, 23 Dec 2016 09:15:15 +0000

Equipped with the Apple W1 chip, the AirPods and the Beats Solo3 Wireless offer a beautiful sound experience. But the two accessories are not equal. We tested them and here are our impressions

Apple has decided to revolutionize wireless. With the W1 chip that equips the Beats Solo3 Wireless headset and the AirPods, Apple offers innovative features on these products. After spending a day with the AirPods and tried the on-ear headphones Beats, we especially gets off the sound quality, autonomy and automatic configuration of these devices . But the two accessories are not equal. Far from being as intrusive as an in-ear headset and more practical than a supra-auricular headset (the Solo3 is only one example among many others), the AirPods have everything to please. Explanations.

The Beats Solo3 Wireless offers better autonomy than the AirPods
Thanks to their small size, the AirPods are easily forgotten in the ears . And contrary to appearances, you can shake your head, dance like never before and even run, without the headphones falling. The W1 chip also brings new features such as dual optical sensors and the accelerometer. With this technology, the headphones are activated – just as you slide them into your ears. Just remove them to pause the music and that’s really cool! Another advantage is that the AirPods can also be used on Android smartphones. We tested them with an Honor 8 and the result was not bad. But the key is elsewhere and meltyStyle tells you more

The case of the AirPods is very practical to benefit from a autonomy of up to 24 hours
Personally used to repetitive otitis, I did not feel any discomfort when trying the AirPods. With headphones or conventional headphones, my sensations are different: Just keep for 3 or 4 hours of earphones or earphones in my ears so that a feeling of discomfort makes its appearance. With AirPods, the wireless listening has never been so cool . As for Solo3 Beats Wireless, it can still boast of offering greater autonomy than AirPods . However, it does not offer the most effective noise reduction headphones that wireless Apple that are available to purchase here. Practices thanks to their box, the headsets seem ready to impose themselves, against all odds, in the world of the wireless.
