AnonD-804996, 28 Aug 2020There is no way tinny crappy 13 bucks TWS sound anywhere close to AirPods 2...QCY T1c or other alternatives.
They are so cheap, it's the best 13$ you throw out of the window if you won't find it as good as I described.

      - Expensive
      - Ugly and unreliable design
      - Tearing it down also destroys it (this means non-replacable battery)
      - Sound as same as cheap wired earbuds.

      I bought AirPods 1 and 2 to just realize so many cons I experienced with them.

        Aside from extra features, AirPods sound like $20 earphones. Breaks easily too.

          Fearghast, 27 Aug 2020IMHO it's easy, there is a ton of better sounding and significantly cheaper TWS headphone... morePrecisely - very few people can tell the difference between a $20 and a $200 earphone, let alone find the difference to be enough to justify the price gap.

            Actually that makes sense. When apple released their airpods alot of the ios users bought it. Due its price and less features in android, 99% of android users didnt. Due to the very few offerings at the time in android, not much sale other than airpods was present. But now that other TWS manufacturers and Android phone manufacturers are in the market with better value, apple is losing market share. Seen it happen once already. It's the same story as it was with iPhone vs Android phones.

I hate that crap. Sure there were some cheaper alternatives, but I had no clue how they sound. AirPods 2 were VERY expensive, but now that I have them, I don't really regret it. They work great and I actually use them exclusively on Windows 10 systems for music and movies. Now everyone is copying AirPods Pro and it seems like entire market will be again saturated with this silicone tips garbage. Just like it happened with wired earphones, but now with wireless ones...

                            IMHO it's easy, there is a ton of better sounding and significantly cheaper TWS headphones on the market + the "traditional" manufacturers are not even trying to enter the market with something worth while.
                            I mean my Sony or Sennheisers are fine I guess, but they are hardly worth their asking price (not in a slightest).
