Fantime Touch Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with True Wireless Earbuds Review

As my wife’s earbuds had seen better days along with her losing one I decided it was time to show what a good husband I am and buy her a new set  :). She has been dropping hints about wanting a little bluetooth speaker for her ipad and I thought this would be the perfect combination to replace her earbuds with a new set that gave her back stereo sound along with a charging unit that doubled as a speaker.

It arrived in a branded lift top lid with the speaker unit well protected in foam along with a charging micro USB lead, a carry case and instructions, the lid and speaker controls had removable plastic covers for protection. After unpacking it I gave it a good look over, it’s a good solid unit with high quality finishing, the earbuds are identical and fit in place for charging or storage magnetically, The whole unit has a good weight to it ideal for a speaker avoiding vibration problems at the highest volume.

The instructions are fairly basic but are clear and easy to follow, I first tried the speaker which was a simple case of holding the power button for a few seconds until it flashes red/blue then look on your device under the Bluetooth setting for i-FUN8 and just select it and you are connected. I was really impressed with the sound from such a small speaker and how high it went without any distortion; the control buttons are touch type not ideal for my big fat fingers but ideal for my wife who easily navigates them.

I connected the earbuds next, slightly more to it than the speaker but still very simple, you can either use one or both for a stereo sound, holding both power buttons together for about 5 seconds until the lights on both are flashing red/blue then look on your device under the Bluetooth setting for FUN8 and pressing to connect that’s it you are good to go. The sound quality is good and clear and I tested them for calling last number dialled which worked as it should along with an incoming call, the music cuts instantly and resumes seamlessly from the same point.

My wife has been using both now for a while, she says the earbuds fit really well being comfortable and solid fitting that won’t fall out easily, the sound is great and they work really well for phone calls being clear both ends of the call. She loves the speaker plus the fact it charges the earbuds so everything she wanted in one unit.

Overall I am really pleased with these mainly because my with loves my wife is really happy with them and I am a wonderful husband :)

MindKoo True Wireless Earbuds (Upgrade Version) Bluetooth 4.2 Review

A very nice quality set of earbuds with a neat little charging box, after unpacking these I set the box charging while I read through the manual, this is a small manual with nothing complicated and has some diagrams to assist, the charging box is a nice little unit with a clip top lid and ideal pocket size and with up to 10 charges from a single charge of the charging box it’s ideal.

The process of pairing is very simple turning them both on simultaneously and letting them pair with each other, you then open the Bluetooth on your device and “M-6” should be discovered and once this is selected they connect and you are now ready to go, they will auto connect with this device next time without having to pair them again, I gave them a good test and the difference with a stereo sound compared to just one bud is like chalk and cheese and the sound produced was really superb.

Answering a call couldn’t be easier just touching the button on the headset, the music can be paused with a single touch on either earbud and a double tap takes you to the next song in your playlist, I found them very comfortable and after a short time of wearing them you forget they are there. I tested the range and found the connection solid up to around 28ft then started to get drop off which is in line with the 30ft connection claim a good range.

I have added a short video and will also add some pictures showing unpacking, pairing, playing some music and showing how an incoming call instantly cuts the music and flawlessly switching back to play when the call ends, please be aware my original video is of high quality but the video quality often degrades considerable when uploaded but hopefully not too much.

Fantime Bluetooth V4.1 Sports Headphone With Charging Box Review

As my daughter has managed to lose her headphones I made her go without any for a week but I finally cracked and decided to get her some more as it seemed to be more of a punishment for me than her having to listen to her music and the mindless pap she listens to on YouTube.

These arrived in a little brown flip lid box with the headphones in the charge unit and USB power lead, spare ear buds and manual underneath, the manual is clear and easy to follow so I put the charging case on charge and had a good read through.

Once the charge unit was fully charged I gave them a test, pairing is a breeze just switch them both on together with the little power button on the front of the ear buds then go to the Bluetooth on the device you are using and look for ‘BO2’ and select it to pair and you ready to go.

The controls on the ear buds have a basic pause and play control for music by pressing either the main button on either ear bud all other music/sound controls are done via the Bluetooth linked device you are using, you have automatic voice prompts for power on, power off, Bluetooth connected and low battery. Incoming calls can be controlled via the buttons and I tested this features and it works as it should.

The charge case is very neat and the ear buds lock straight into charging position via magnets when you insert them, I like the fact the base holds it’s own charge rather than having to be constantly connected to power before they will charge the ear buds which makes them truly portable and chargeable on the move without a power source.

My daughter was delighted with them and tells me the sound is ‘banging stereo’ which translates as very good very good and clear stereo, she says they are very comfortable, light weight and she hardly notices she is wearing them.

I have added a short video showing unboxing, connecting the ear buds to my phone, playing a bit of music and finally showing the music cut and restart on an incoming call, please note my original video is of high quality but the video quality often degrades considerable when uploaded but hopefully not too much.

AMINY True Wireless Stereo Earphones Review

Great quality with a crystal clear and solid stereo sound, these arrived in a little black custom box with silver Aminy logo embossed on the top, inside the two ear bud receivers were packed into a foam cut out with the addition of a red Chinese knot tassel, no idea why its included but it is a welcome added extra I have now put my garage key on. Under the ear bud receivers there are two ear hooks, a dual USB charging lead, some spare ear tips and the manual.

After getting it all opened up I put the ear hooks on charge, they both have little rubber plugged micro USB ports you connect to and charge both simultaneously, I did check and you can also charge them on a single micro USB lead if you wish or even lose the double lead. The first part of the manual is in English and I found it very easy to follow with diagrams linked to instructions, once you remove the rubber caps from the ear hooks they plug into the ear bud receivers and you are ready to get started.

Pairing up was very straight forward holding the phone icon button on both ear buds for around 10 seconds then waiting for them to pair with each other and opening the Bluetooth on your device looking for U-two R and pairing them, switching them off you just hold down the phone icon on both until they turn off.

The sound quality was really good and you have the ability to switch tracks via the ear bud controls, answer phone calls, play and pause tracks and even use Siri if you are using an Apple device which I tested and it works well. The quality of these ear buds is superb and the finishing is really nice I am more than pleased with them.

I have added a video and will also add some images showing opening them up, fitting the ear hooks to the ear buds, pairing them with my Android phone playing some music, switching tracks, pausing play, showing an incoming phone call which switches flawlessly between music and call not missing a beat on resume, I tested them with my iPhone 6 as I wanted to try out Siri which it connected to instantly on a double press on the phone icon. Please note my original video is of high quality but the video quality often degrades considerable when uploaded but hopefully not too much.

- Nice presentation box ideal as a gift
- Ability to use Siri via a double press on the ear bud controls
- Flawless switching when receiving a phone call from music and back again without missing a beat
- 8 hour talk or music time on a single charge
- Comfortable to wear and surprising light, you forget you are wearing them after a very short time

What I Didn’t Like
********************
- This is very picky so I haven’t reduced my rating for them but I always try and add something, I tested the range up to 27 feet and started to lose connection it does say up to 33 feet but I guess it is dependent on both the ear bud signal and phone signal being good.

Summary
**********
Overall I really like these ear buds, sound is great, they are lightweight and fit really well so won’t fall out easily, they have some nice features and are of high quality the reason I have given them a full five stars.

Mindkoo Crystal Clear Stereo True Wireless Earbuds Review

Great sound with sleek design, these arrived in a simple brown windowed and branded box with the instructions, spare ear pieces, double charging lead and drawstring carry bad underneath, the instructions are multilingual with English being the first section.

After opening everything up I put the earbuds on charge, there are little lift flaps on each one that conceal micro USB ports and the supplied split lead fits into each, I did try charging with a single micro USB lead I had which worked fine so if you misplace the split lead any micro USB lead will work. I gave the manual a read through, it’s simple and straight forward but clear and detailed enough the make the setup process a breeze.

The finishing of these earbuds is very nice and seems very high quality and I like the split charging lead and the little carry case is a nice addition, I started them simply by holding the power button on both earbuds and then leaving them until the paired with each other after which I searched on my phones Bluetooth connection for M-5 and hit it to connect and that was it done.

I gave these a test with some music on my phone and the quality really is superb, they fit nice and snug and after a few seconds of wearing them you forget they are there, these don’t have controls on the buds for the music apart from mute and the main control on the buds is for hands free phone calls which works really well instantly cutting the music when you get an incoming call and flawlessly switching back to music once the call has ended, the music/sound is controlled via your mobile devices options.

I have added a short video and will also add some pictures showing the unboxing, pairing the earbuds to each other and then connecting to my phones Bluetooth after which I played a bit of music and rang my phone to show the incoming call break and interrupt switching seamlessly back to music on ending the call, please note my original video is of high quality but the video quality often degrades considerable when uploaded.

TWS Wireless Twin Earbuds With V4.1 Surround Sound

I purchased these for my wife and she absolutely loves them, they arrived in a nice little branded glossy black box with different sizes of earbud fittings along with the ones already fitted to them, the main charger box, charger box lead, USB to Micro USB Connector and the manual.

I set the box charging while I read through the manual, this is a small manual with nothing complicated and has some diagrams to assist, the charging box is a nice little unit with a clip top lid and ideal pocket size or bag in my wife’s case, this charger unit can also be used as an emergency charge unit for your phone which is a nice added bonus.

Once the earbuds had fully charged it was time to try them out, the process of pairing is very simple turning them both on simultaneously and letting them pair with each other, you then open the Bluetooth on your device and “Earteana” should be discovered, if you have this appear twice in the listing then you have not correctly paired them with each other and should start over. You are now ready to go, I gave them a good test and the difference with a stereo sound compared to just one bud is like chalk and cheese and the sound produced was really superb.

My wife is really pleased with these having the stereo sound which she agrees is superb and is now using them all the time ditching her normal earbud, answering a call couldn’t be easier just pressing the button on the right headset and pressing again to hang up and she loves the fact the box will charge them up to 20 times before needing a recharge and she can use the power box to give her phone an emergency charge.

I have added a short video that shows going through the process of pairing the earbuds to each other and then to the Bluetooth on my iPhone 6 and playing a bit of music off YouTube, you should be aware due to the was Amazon optimises videos they degrade and lose quality once uploaded and the original quality is of far better quality.

Bluetooth Outdoor Waterproof Stereo Speaker

I have attached some pictures and a video of testing the waterproof feature, I know it’s not the greatest quality as it’s taken on my iPhone 5 but hopefully shows this feature well. This is a very impressive portable speaker with a great sound, this speaker comes in a very nice display box and as soon as you take it out you see and feel its quality.

The set up could not be simpler, all you do is hold down the power and search on your device for S7 and connect that’s it. I connected it to my daughter’s iPad mini which is shown in the video test,  the sound is great and has a superb and I put it to full volume and still detected no distortion. This also has a built in FM radio you can switch to with a quick press on the power button which seems to work well although not something I plan on using. There is a built in micro USB port so you can pre-load music if you wish which is a very good feature.

What I liked
************
- Design is very nice
- Great quality
- Waterproof and shockproof
- Crystal clear sound even at the highest volume
- Built-in micro USB port
- Built in FM radio
- Very powerful

What I Didn’t Like
*******************
- Really struggling to find anything, the manual is small but that’s really being a bit picky as its functions are really simple and obvious and it does not affect the product.

Summary
**********
This really is a great little speaker with some nice features, it’s cased in rubber so although I could not see a shockproof claim I would think it’s very resilient. It has high quality and flawless sound without any noticeable distortion even at the highest volume and of course its waterproof so ideal in the bathroom. I would certainly recommend it.
