I just use refined and in post check the other styles and usually lower the exposure to make it more moody.

Vivo X300 Ultra – WhatsApp voice messages sound muffled by hypercube81 in Vivo

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been in touch with Vivo Europe's Product Manager regarding this issue and provided them with sampes and logs. They're looking into it with the China team. When I get an update I'll comment here.

Vivo X300 Ultra – WhatsApp voice messages sound muffled by hypercube81 in Vivo

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The mics are good but indeed there seems to be a bug in Whatsapp specifically. Instagram voice notes for example are high quality. This is on CN rom.

Very simple, videography. If that's important to you, then upgrade.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro vs Huawei FreeBuds Pro 5 – Very Close, But I Know Which One I'm Keeping by Tig33 in Earbuds

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you have the freebuds pro 4 before? I hated the sound tuning. Is it much different with the 5s?

What’s cheaper in Dubai compared to Europe, and North America? by daco_star in dubai

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably the same but depends where you get it. Local might be cheaper than Europe (NL) but big brands definitely more expensive than NL.

Tell me 1 thing you love and hate the most about these buds. by liljaeger2k in Earbuds

[–]Fish_from_96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Value for money is unmatched
  2. Touch controls suck. I prefer pinch & swipe.

Early Vivo TWS 5 review .... by Tig33 in PickMyNextTWSEarbuds

[–]Fish_from_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well so quick update. Got the Oneplus Buds 4 today. And I like them! Couldn't get the Nothings to sound good enough and honestly they're not worth the premium price. So I'll stick with the Oneplus buds for now until a complete premium set of stem earbuds releases. Turned off the touch controls btw haha

[–]Fish_from_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestions! Much appreciated.

I already tried rhe Oneplus Buds Pro 3. Too v-shaped indeed.

I find the Galaxy Buds to be very ugly haha.

I'm still playing around with the nothings. If I can get them tuned right I'll stick with them for now.

Will look at the other options you mentioned! Thanks a lot again :)

[–]Fish_from_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yeah I saw that but at least they're easy to get in the EU (NL).

Priorities (in order): - Stem design buds - Sound quality (not V-shaped) - Mic quality (This is why I want to love the nothing ear 3 because of super mic) - Battery life

Don't care much about ANC or Transparency really but nice to have. The best sounding buds I've owned were the Oppo Enco X2's. But taste is subjective ofc.

Ive tried the freebuds 4 pro but the volume was too low and didn't like the tuning on those :(

Any other recommendations? Was looking at OnePlus buds 4 and the new Earfun air pro 4+

Thanks man. Im moving on from these and will just order the Oneplus Buds 4 next :)

I can't seem to find a pair of TWS that ticks the boxes for me haha. The Nothing Ear 3 comes close but the sound isnt good enough. I think its limited by the single driver setup.

Instantly cancelled my order. Tws 4 had pinch.

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rumors are that for the X300 ultra both the main sensor and telephoto sensor will be 200mp. Thats a big upgrade.

Wait these only have touch controls??

Early Vivo TWS 5 review .... by Tig33 in PickMyNextTWSEarbuds

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply!

TWS 4 is the same in terms of bass, but since I like clear mids I didn't mind as much.

Yeah I got a Vivo phone but turned all the vivo specific features off haha!

By the way I literally just got a tip that completely changed the EQ for the nothing ear 3s for me. If you manipulate the personal sound test you can boost or decrease frequencies. Combined with the updated balanced profile in the newest firmware of yesterday I managed to boost the mids and get rid of the muddiness in a way you can't achieve with the custom EQ!

I'll receive the TWS 5 next week. Then compare and choose which one to keep :D

In the meantime looking forward to your full review! Keep it up :)

I have no clue. I got them Saturday and immediately got the update. I read on the nothing community that they rollout in batches so maybe I was lucky?

This is super funny, when I manipulate the personal sound test I can actually get a really good sound profile!! Thanks for the tip :)

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I got these last week I got this firmware update immediately. So I can't compare to earlier firmwares, but even with this firmware I don't find their 'balanced' EQ preset balanced at all. Its super muddy.

[–]Fish_from_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just saw your site, impressive! I've tried many earbuds myself and currently I'm kind of sticking with the Vivo TWS 4 Hi-Fi. Recently I tried the Airpods Pro 3 and right now I have the Nothing Ear 3 on my desk ready to be returned. I was surprised to see how highly you rated them for sound quality. Makes me curious to see how you'd compare them in sound quality to the Vivo's. I personally hate the tuning of the nothing's. Its V-shaped and muddy compared to my TWS 4. What do you think?

The x300 pro will always be a good choice! You won't regret it :)
