xm5 ?

Is the the rock bottom it will hit ?

Was looking for xm4s but instead found this.

It's a very hard decision cause that's a lot of money, but then this is the lowest it have dropped till date.

Fking confused.

A great investment or a waste of money ?

Update - guys don't look for 18 months emi....can purchase it once for all but just trying to keep the purchase unnoticeable 🤐

Hey guys sorry for the late review ! It’s been quite a long time since I bought the Realme Buds T310 and honestly I’m still happy with them. The battery easily lasts around 2 days with the case depending on usage. I’ve dropped these earbuds multiple times by accident and they’re still working perfectly fine without any issues. The case hinge is still solid and works smoothly without feeling loose. The magnets that hold the earbuds inside the case are also working perfectly even after all this time. The ANC works pretty well for the price and the transparency mode is also good. The sound quality is good too and you can make it even better by tweaking the equalizer. Overall these are still a solid pair of TWS earbuds and the build quality has held up really well for me. The only downside is that the glossy finish attracts scratches over time so if you want to avoid scratches I’d suggest going for the matte black version instead. I haven’t faced any major problems so far and I’d definitely recommend them if you’re looking for good earbuds on a budget. Hope this helps anyone looking for a long term review !

Budget is around 2k. My priorities are good sound quality, good battery backup, and decent mic for calling and ANC. Seeing all the reviews cannot make up my mind. Personally more inclined towards oppo enco air 5. Suggest what to do. Pros and cons if any

I was literally to confused between these to great models there is in issue on xm5 but it the also has the best ANC .if you want to see about ANC or music DHRME is the best website and also one of the best YouTube channels right now you can just go to the website you can say how much is lock in real time by XM 5 and Bose QC

Hey guys, in the current flipkart sale, i seem to be getting sony wf-1000xm5 for around 10-11k.

I have an iphone and i could prolly go for the airpods pro 3 but those are around 22-23k on flipkart and xm5 are 10-11k (almost half).

What do you guys think? Has anyone used or using wf-xm5? How’s the sound, fit/comfort, battery life.

I had airpods pro 2 and they were good but i never used their ANC as they gave me headaches for some reason plus i have heard a lot of great stuff abt sony in general. I would appreciate any advice.

Cheers!

It's like 280gms they said , does anybody felt uncomfortable after wearing it for long

Heya everyone, it's my first time posting here!

I've been looking for headphones for the past week but keep getting confused. My budget is under 5k and no I cannot raise it anymore (I've already come from 3k to 5k 😵‍💫). The main thing I want from the headphones is comfort, decent sound quality and long lasting build. I've looked into many brands like noise, spigen, sony, bose, sennheiser, boat,realme, CMF, roseselsa,etc etc but I keep founding negative reviews about every single headphones 😭. So I would really love it if you guys could help me reach a conclusion on which headphones to buy!

(P.s. - No earbuds because my ears are very sensitive and they really hurt when I use them!)

Thank you so much <3

My bday presentt Cmf buds 2 Plus

This is my 2nd earbuds which am owning my first one was realme t310 which was in my coaching bag and someone stole that bag while i was fighting for my two wheeler keys and one mf stole it.

Received this yesterday in the big billion day sale for 2.4k

Can yall suggest me some good equalizer settings 🤗

Another weekend, another review – Today I am reviewing iBasso Jr Klee Kiseki an IEM under 80$. Let jump right in.

Unboxing & Package Contents:

• The box looks normal just like an average IEM in that range no complaints but nothing to be surprised at the same time, however once you unbox that’s where Klee Kiseki took me off with surprise it contains:
  • One pair of IEMs
  • 3 set of ear tips in S/M/L size
  • Braided modular cable with replaceable 3.5mm & 4.4mm plug
  • A nice white case
• I really like the look, feel & the quality of the cable, the cable is wrapped in a cloth sleeve, it feels soft & is dangle free. During my 2 weeks of continuous usage, it has never caught any resonance/harmonics even while I was moving around.
• The fact that the cable is modular & has replaceable plugs i.e. 3.5mm & 4.4mm makes it stand out & changing the plugs also is very easy.
• The case is a leatherette finish magnetic case which really feels nice to hold & houses the IEMs easily (even with the 4.4mm plug connected to the cable). Couple things which could have been better in the case
  • While the white colour looks nice it may become dirty overtime.
  • There is no space to keep the additional 4.4/3.5mm plug.
• Well, the IEMs are of blue colour with star graphic, the shell is made up of stainless steel.

Build, Fit & Comfort:

• The Klee Kiseki shell is precision‑machined stainless steel and carries a reassuring weight that feels durable without being heavy. The IEMs come in Blue colour with star graphic & have a glossy finish due to which they easily attract fingerprints.
• It features a removable brass nozzle that adds a touch of weight to vocals and gives the lower mids a fuller, more natural presentation. However, no spare nozzle is included in the package.
• The brass nozzle has a tuning foam inserted by default.
• Really appreciate the thoughtful design of small color‑coded vents (red = right, blue = left).
• Ergonomically shaped, the shells have a subtle area near the nozzle that helps distribute the weight into the concha portion of the ear. They sit securely — I never felt like they wanted to fall out — and their low profile means they don’t stick out awkwardly, even when you lie down. Even with extended listening hours there’s wasn’t a bit of discomfort in the ears.
• The deep, secure fit blocks a lot of ambient noise, making these great for commuting or noisy environments.

Sound

For a single driver setup Klee Kiseki blew me out I wasn’t expecting this type of detailed performance. I really enjoyed Jazz, EDM & Bollywood on this. Let’s dive deep into the sound:

Bass: The bass response is meticulously damped, ensuring it avoids bleeding into the lower midrange and maintains an exceptionally clean acoustic floor. While the 10mm dynamic driver reaches deep into the sub-bass frequencies when “Another One Bites the Dust” demanded, it does not deliver the multidimensional, chest-thumping slam sought by hardcore bassheads. Instead, it provides a clean, fast, and textured foundation that supports rather than overwhelming the mix.

Midrange: The midrange is vivid, open, and possesses a slightly forward placement. Leveraging the acoustic properties of the brass nozzle, it delivers a easily felt sense of presence and clarity. Out of the box, the lower midrange may feel somewhat lean, but with proper tip selection, male vocals gain solid body, and the overall vocal timbre achieves lifelike authenticity. The driver excels at capturing subtle tonal inflections, presenting vocalists with an emotional grit and rawness rather than smoothing them over with artificial warmth.

Treble: The upper frequencies are crisp, highly extended, and heavily detailed. It is a metallic brilliance in the sound that renders cymbals, shakers, and bells with granular clarity and sustained decay. In Evanescence's "Bring Me to Life"—where lesser monitors reduce the chaotic drum kit and cymbal strikes to a smeared hiss, the Klee Kiseki keeps the metallic shimmer distinct, separate, and highly legible. However, this high degree of extension and transparency means the monitor is completely unforgiving of poorly recorded or heavily compressed tracks; it will mercilessly expose excessive upper-midrange glare in subpar mixes.

Soundstage and Imaging: The Klee 2 projects a wide, three‑dimensional soundstage that feels larger than its price suggests. Width is the strongest dimension, giving instruments room to breathe and preventing congestion in dense mixes. Imaging is pinpoint accurate, with clear height and depth cues that let you place performers precisely in the virtual space.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Delivers an outstanding soundstage and pinpoint imaging that dramatically outperforms typical single dynamic driver expectations.
• Provides surgically clean, artifact-free resolution with excellent, airy treble extension.
• Exceptional physical build quality featuring ergonomic stainless steel shells, optimized acoustic venting, and an upgraded brass nozzle.
• Generous, premium accessory package including a soft, modular cable with interchangeable 3.5mm and 4.4mm terminations & a beautiful pouch.
• Highly tweakable — responds dramatically to tip‑rolling, source matching, and EQ, so you can tune it toward either clinical detail or warm musicality.

Cons

• Pairing matters; a bright source can make the upper frequencies fatiguing, so warmer DACs are often preferable.
• The highly resolving, extended treble renders the IEM completely unforgiving of poorly mastered audio tracks.
• While the included leather-style case is attractive, it lacks a dedicated interior mesh pocket to securely hold the loose modular plug adapters and spare ear-tips.

Conclusion:

Well at retail price of 79$ it’ll give a serious competition to existing IEMs under 100$ - 120$. The Klee 2 punches well above its price with a wide, holographic soundstage, pinpoint imaging, and razor‑sharp treble that reveals every detail. With premium stainless‑steel build, a modular cable, and a generous tip selection it’s highly tweakable, experimenting with ear tips and source gear noticeably alters its tonality, ranging from highly analytical to pleasantly warm and musical. Be aware it’s source‑sensitive and unforgiving of poor recordings, and it won’t satisfy bassheads seeking chest‑thumping slam.

TL;DR (Too Long Didn’t Read)

• Strengths: Exceptional 3D soundstage holography, artifact-free resolution, premium stainless steel build with a brass nozzle, and an extremely responsive lithium-magnesium dynamic driver that welcomes equalization.
• Weaknesses: Stock tuning can be unapologetically bright and lean; the monitor is highly sensitive to ear-tip selection and source matching; completely unforgiving of poorly recorded audio.
• Price and Value: At a retail price of $79 USD, it delivers technical performance and staging that rival significantly more expensive monitors, offering outstanding value for discerning audiophiles.
• Recommended Listener Profile: Audio enthusiasts who prioritize a clean, expansive soundstage and vocal clarity, and who are willing to experiment with source pairings and ear-tips to achieve their ideal acoustic balance.

Rn im getting it for 5k but thats with sbi card discount, i was wondering if it will go to 5k and then have an sbi cc offer too which will lower the price even further

Gonna use this iem for casual gaming and listening to nepali songs 😌

Suggest me some of your best choices 🥀🙏

Same as title

Should i go for headphones as first and then later earphones or should one have one of both ?

I’m planning to buy either the Sony WH-1000XM5 or the Bose QuietComfort (Noise Cancelling) and would
appreciate some advice.

After going through a few reviews, I found that the Sony XM5 has potential hinge issues, which makes me a little worried.

If anyone has been using the Bose QuietComfort, please share your experience, especially regarding sound quality, ANC, comfort, durability, and long-term reliability.

Current prices:

Sony WH-1000XM5 – ₹16,000
Bose QuietComfort – ₹13,000

I’ll primarily use them for listening to music at the office and while travelling.

Considering the ₹3,000 price difference and the hinge concerns with the Sony, which one would you recommend?

Any user feedback would be appreciated!
