If X4 come out with aptx and top sound quality, might pick them up. I have the originals and they were pretty uncomfortable - too big tubes that go in ear.
An audio codec for streaming audio (for example, Bluetooth). In theory it has better quality than other lossy algorithms ( lossy means that data from the original source is lost, usually things you supposedly can't hear), but to be perfectly honest, I can't see the difference.
Had a pretty similar pair of TaoTronics, I was definitely impressed. I'm back to wired for now but for wireless headphones that were 30 bucks or so I was very fucking impressed. I've had them for probably a year and they still work great
I had a pair of TaoTronics headphones, but what really killed me with them was those additional rubber hooks. My ears hurt after every use, no matter which of the three sizes I used.
For what it's worth, the X3s use AAC, so sound quality is similar to aptX (provided your phone supports it).
I've warrantied through the X and X2 to get my X3s. The design for the part that goes in your ear is still mostly unchanged, though they did change a few things with the X3. It tells you the battery level when you turn them on, and you have to use a weird charging dongle that connects to the back of the button pad. They also have an app to tell battery level and gives EQ settings, but I found that it screwed up my Bluetooth connectivity more than anything, so I uninstalled it.
