My proudest work to date, with detailed breakdown of performance (read: gaming) analysis, power usage and charging test, also some photos and videos cause the color science is amazing!
MUST CONSIDER if you’re looking into a $300 phone no matter for gaming or not, lemme know what you think! 😆
Honestly I should’ve done this sooner, but anyway here they are, and it’s got:
- My quick takes - Affiliate links (thanks for the support!) - Key metrics (features take into account ANC, Transparency, Multipoint, Game Mode, App Support, etc.) - My personal star rating, price-weighted
So you might see a low score with 5 star rating, because I think it’s good for the price so it goes like this:
1☆ : avoid at all cost 2☆ : try to find alternative 3☆ : you can buy, you can skip 4☆ : highly consider 5☆ : blind buy worthy
And keep in mind everything is my personal opinion, so I can make mistakes and when I do please send me a DM 😁 also everything can be adjusted over time to accomodate for better things in the future
I feel like I can start sharing now, definitely more will be added and stay tuned for my next announcement, see you soon! 🥂
Been a while since the last time I posted, so hey there!
First of all, please forgive the completely outdated contents I’m putting out, trying to catch up on my backlog as fast as I can, though I already shot a fun video about my favs for audio stuff, coming this week!
Also what’s with the pictures you might ask? Let me give you a hint from the 2nd photo that I took with my iPhone 13 Pro Max (and yes it’s a phone, shot at 3x without portrait mode or any editing) 🤯
In the meantime I hope everyone’s having a great holiday season for those who celebrate Chinese New Year, and as always THANK YOU for your support 🙏🏻
See you soon!
P.S. Thanks to Shenzhenaudio, I will have the Moondrop M4P speaker set + SMSL RAW-HA1 amp to test so I’m SUPER excited for what’s coming!

- Special design and packaging - New 1 DD + 1 Planar config - New 3D printed shell - 9+30h battery life (!) - Multipoint (!) - 99USD (!)
It’s shaping up to be the best Moondrop TWS yet for few reasons: 1. The same new DD from MOCA/Aria 2 2. Super long battery life which is usually with ANC on 3. Appropriate price tag (esp. for a collab y’know!)
The only thing left is when can we actually get it 😂
One time during our visit to Moondrop's booth at SIAS 2024, my wife joked "it'd be really cool to see if they collab with the game you play all the time, what's that Honkai?"
Very shortly after, this happened. Yep, a Moondrop x Honkai: Star Rail collab TWS (!!!!!)
I'm very, very, very, very stoked to see what's coming. Hopefully I could get my hands on them early (I promise I'll bug the Moondrop/Shenzhenaudio guys non-stop for this haha) and show it for you
But now back to scripting my review of the Moondrop phone this week, but DAMN haha I can't hide my excitement 😆 let's talk in the comments!
______________
P.S. I lost 50/50 to Himeko on Robin's banner, sad but the good people at Shenzhenaudio helped me ship Robin's CD album together with the stuff to review. Huge fan of Robin (and @chevyha) ever since!
Words can’t explain how grateful I am being able to talk, laugh, and share our passion together at SIAS 2024
Having started out making videos in my bedroom and continued doing so for the past 5 years, it’s really great to finally be able to meet with other super duper amazing creators!
Just in case you’re wondering these are the awesome people behind: - 0DiBi - Super*Review - Crinacle - GizAudio - MIND THE HEADPHONE And so much more (there’s a pic with Moondrop CEO as well)
I haven’t been able to finish any long-form videos yet but I’ll try to churn out as much as I can cause I’ve got a TON of stuff to show you!
Anyway let me know you want to see the most and let’s have a great talk 🙌🏻
Due to an unexpected situation I'll be posting my Earfun Air Pro 4 this Sunday instead here https://youtu.be/hv-CP1fXLUA (Goes live on Sept 1)
I just bought myself the HUAWEI Freebuds 6i and man I can't wait to talk about it too! A lot of new releases this year are extremely good value, and we're in for an amazing year end 😆 (just when I thought I'd be a bit bored this year)
Talking about my content creation journey this year, honestly it's been quite challenging since I didn't get much sponsored deals (or if they do they're signinficantly less than ever before) but on the upside I got to connect with tons of amazing people with a few trips here and there, even though I ended up spending even more money! 🤣
And very soon one them is coming up: SIAS 2024 from Sept 20-22 in Shenzhen. This'll be my first audio show EVER and I'm really excited (and anxious) to check out all the stuff while meeting audio creators that I admire at the same time.
I'm thinking of creating a few content ideas: 1. Highlight the key products from brands that YOU and I choose (okay what brand you want to see?) 2. Top 5 products that blew my mind (most possibly incredibly expensive ones) 3. Visiting brands we usually cover in the channel (for the first time ever haha)
Finally, I haven't posted in a while so let me know what you've been up to this year, let's have a great conversation and I'll be happy to chime in, thank you and wish you all a good one 🥂

Due to an unexpected situation I'll be posting my Earfun Air Pro 4 this Sunday instead here https://youtu.be/hv-CP1fXLUA (Goes live on Sept 1)
I just bought myself the HUAWEI Freebuds 6i and man I can't wait to talk about it too! A lot of new releases this year are extremely good value, and we're in for an amazing year end 😆 (just when I thought I'd be a bit bored this year)
