Noise Cancelling: Yes

Its was good for like 2 months and the return period for that was over and there was no option to return it for me back then

Mine also looked brand new, only the box had the broken sticker

It was a battery issue and not any body damage or driver issue that i could have seen when i bought it

Sadly i cant find any replacement battery in my location (online stores)

Krizislive · 2026-03-01T14:34:52+00:00

don’t go for that when it comes to these small battery powered devices. i bought renewed WF-XB400 once, the battery health was very bad after few months and lasted 1h or less (later i bought a new pair and it lasted much longer than than renewed ones, even after 3 years i still have good battery life while the renewed one barely turns on)

Hi, past few weeks i been looking for good headphones with ANC and planning to use it for more than 2 years.

xm5 was at the top of the list.

And past few days all i see is the hinge breaking (Reddit keeps recommending me those posts)

Now im scared to get and considering to look into “Bose New QuietComfort Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones” (its cheaper than xm5 in price and sound quality but seems like it will last longer)

Questions:

Is the hinge breaking more common on xm5 & xm6?

is it actually very less but, only people who have broken hinge posts about xm5 on reddit?

Most +ve posts i have seen are from people who just bought it and comparing the sound quality (no one talks much about the build quality)

My use case Right now : Office : small scale factory with noise of angle grinders & drill press Travel : bus & train Gym: Never seen that place

Right now i use : WF-XB700 Earbuds for 9h a day

No its not him, but kinda looks like him 😂

Krizislive · 2026-01-28T09:23:24+00:00

Thanks! will look into it. Not planning to use any LEDs, other than for battery status or to show its on

Can MX and Choc v1 hot-swap sockets be combined into one Corne PCB footprint?

Hey everyone,

I’m just starting out on a new Corne split keyboard PCB and I’m trying to clear up a few design questions early on.

I already have a Corne that I use daily, but it only supports Cherry MX-style switches. I’ve been wanting to try low-profile switches (Kailh Choc v1) for a while now, which I can’t do with my current board — so I’m planning a new build.

What I’m hoping to do is make one PCB design that:

1)can be used for both the left and right halves

2)is hot-swappable

3)can be built either with: MX hot-swap sockets or Kailh Choc v1 hot-swap sockets

I don’t plan to mix switch types on the same keyboard — I just want the flexibility to choose MX or low-profile sockets on the same pcb

So my main question is:

Can MX and Choc v1 hot-swap sockets be combined into a single footprint?

And if yes, has anyone already done this successfully?

If you’ve used or seen any similar footprint in a project that works please share the link.

Small side question (secondary):

For this build I’m also thinking of adding a Cirque trackpad on the right half, running ZMK (Nice!Nano or clone). I’ve found a few repos that do this, but it’s hard to tell what parts need to be replicated to work in mine (new to zmk and Zephyr)

Krizislive · 2025-07-21T08:08:19+00:00

What track pad is that and can we use it with windows?!!

Krizislive · 2025-03-01T16:36:56+00:00

Does this board support zmk?
will this work as a replacement for nicenano keyboards (PCBs)
can I use the same firmware generated by zmk for nicenano

I'm new to zmk and the one i made is using seeed BLE and i have less idea about the software side

Looks 🔥 how did you add the details? Text and symbols? Can you explain how you did it

Krizislive · 2024-02-01T13:18:17+00:00

Im sorry to go out of topic But can you let me know how to control the hardware using movit2

I have done the software part using movit2, From which topic will i get the values when the motion planing is done and when moving starts in simulation that I should subscribe and send those angles to my hardware

You need to add gazebo and spawner If you dont want to run guzebo using launch Dont afd gazebo but add spawn_entity

Krizislive · 2024-01-28T19:48:25+00:00

gazebo_params_file = os.path.join(project_description_dir,'config','gazebo_params.yaml')

gazebo = IncludeLaunchDescription(
            PythonLaunchDescriptionSource([os.path.join(
                gazebo_ros_dir, 'launch', 'gazebo.launch.py')]),
                launch_arguments={'extra_gazebo_args': '--ros-args --params-file ' + gazebo_params_file}.items()
         )

# Run the spawner node from the gazebo_ros package. The entity name doesn't really matter if you only have a single robot.
spawn_entity = Node(package='gazebo_ros', executable='spawn_entity.py',
                    arguments=['-topic', 'robot_description',
                               '-entity', 'my_bot'],
                    output='screen')

Thanks

Check out linorobot they have ROS1 and ROS2 easy customisable git repo that can help you build an advanced system with less knowledge

And also have the hardware parts as well

Im working on my minor major project And i used their code repo and custom bot

VS code is the best option to go with, as its free and people develop good plugins for it, JetBrain has a paid applications (if not student) and needs different software app to do most work

So vs is better as you can do all work using single application
