    The most annoying thing is it blasting “battery low” every 30 seconds when the battery gets below 20%, making them absolutely unusable. At least Sony lets out a ver short beep to let you know, and only twice

      I hate this too, it reminds you constantly as if its something dangerous that you shouldn’t forget about. A small beep once every 20 minutes would suffice. Not only that, but a lot of modern Bluetooth headphones last for quite a long time after the battery goes below 20%.

        Also modern Bluetooth devices send their battery level to the connected device. Why don’t most phones also regularly send a toast or show a notification that you headphones are running out of battery?

          Well I’m not always looking at my phone when I’ve got headphones in.

          Actually, I’m almost never looking at my phone when I’ve got Bluetooth headphones in.

      I have been using Sony earbuds exclusively for the past few years. 10/10. Good sound, decent battery. Well made case (seriously you don’t realize until you have one how nice a well made and shaped case is), they’ve held up far better than I expected over the years.

      A bit pricer than some junk you can order off wish or whatever, but I think it’s well worth it for the quality and longevity of it.

      My favorite Wf-700

    My dashcam had a button that allowed you to disable/enable audio recording. It had a voice say “audio recording aww.”

    “On” and “Off” sounded nearly identical.

    Not just from Wish. I’d like to take a moment to say a massive Fuck You to the turbo thundercunt at Apple who decided it would be a good idea to make the iPhone headphone volume exposure limit warning LOUDER than the audio it was warning me about, and also to provide no method of adjusting either volume to match what my headphones actually output. That’s some fucking Grade-A trolling right there. Twats.

      Thank you for introducing me to the term ‘thundercunt’. It has me thinking of cosplay ideas.

      However, Siri and notifications volume is controlled separately from media volume on iOS. You can just turn it down.

      You can also set a repeating reminder to call Apple a bunch of throbbing thundercunts, perhaps weekly? Which is still a very important thing to do.

    I use Pinebuds. They have a woman’s voice that very enthusiastically says “ready to pair” in an American accent. But what sounds like a Chinese woman’s voice saying “phone disconnected”.

      I’ve a creative air thingy headphone. Great device. It comes with the sweetest asian female voice you can imagine.

      So yes. It’s so Lovely. It’s the voice accompanying all your (manga) waifu dreams.

      Too bad you can’t really understand what she says. But who cares, right?

        There is a company called moondrop that has deliberately waifu voices. But i cant figure them out as a company, they got super cheap in ears and then other stuff that is hundreds of euro, quality wise they are okay I guess

    And now I really would love to have seen Tim Curry as a member of the Q Continuum.
