marcusarelus Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Readers will remember I bought the OCD wife a new Huawei tablet m5 8.4. No head phone jack. OCD wife has worn the leather off her Sony headset which in addition to being moderately expensive and good sounding is a wine berry red color. She was using this little connector that works through the C charging port. Just a matter of time when she would want to charge it and use the headset at the same time and that would not work. I went searching for a new headset. Simple controls and punchy base. Thai people seem to like punchy base (I had discovered from my go go club dj days). I read a bunch or reviews and decided to try the Bluedeo T-6. A little over 1000 baht. I told her it was for me. I tried it out and then told her it was really for her. She ignored it for 2 days still clinging on to the outdated cable technology. Then she tried it. And wore them to the kitchen and then the bathroom and then started smiling and laughing while she listened to her dog utube videos. Now she is wearing them all round the house. Good loudness, good fit, Bluetooth 5 low battery usage. Only one button (don't push the second one). One button and a lady with an indistinguishable ascent says power off or on or connected to one or two devices. It sounds as good as my gaming headset and has big 57mm drivers. A real bargain for close to 1k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcusarelus Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 1 hour ago, wgdanson said: Do we really need to know this? Yes for many reasons. 1. How to deal with Thai women. 2. How to get good Chinese computer gear. 3. Headphones with punchy bass. 4. Spend 1000 and get 6000 in value. That's the deal of the century. If you look down a bit you will find a TV poster asking questions about what to look for in earphones. There are literally thousands of posters crying out for good up to date info on budget but great sound systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusarelus Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 I have Sony, Kingston, Jabra and Bluedeo. The bass on the bluedeo is the nicest to my ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know my gf loves the blue tooth headphones I gave her too. Once they learn about the ease of connecting bluetooth to phones and TV they are won over easy.

She only has to push one button and a lady says power on and connected. She won't get a second sim for the tablet so she can answer her phone while she looks at dog videos yet.

It has more buttons and is supposed to be better. There is also some T-6's for sale with Bluetooth 4. Which I understand are flawed and not as good for many reasons as the 5.0 which may be louder than the T-7 but no controls or the extra cable if you don't want bluetooth.

Sure he made some remarks about OCD but he made a great point of how bluetooth is so much better then those cabled devices. I noticed the same when i gave the GF an bluetooth headset to replace a wired one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not get very good reviews on various sites, especially with low volume on Android phones. As I have said many times....you get what you pay, or do not, pay for.

I also think the Huawei tablet is better than the Apple for less money. If you have said it many times maybe you have convinced yourself not to shop around anymore. I read many reviews before I bought. Glad I tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the little square thing on the right bottom? It is a scratch off verification code. Put it in at the Bluedio website and it tells you if it is a copy or not.

LOL The wife is an engineer. I find many to be OCD. They get used to using something and won't even look at anything else to see if it's better. Some are high tech forward thinking people and others are stuck to using a slide rule. The wife used to sweep incessantly till I bought a Hitachi turbo vacuum cleaner. Now she loves it but for two weeks it sat in the corner. Remember the guy who posted on here he'd never use a cellphone as he didn't need all those newfangled android ideas? The Bluetooth 5 is quite an improvement over the 4 for battery live and range. Have you tried it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is getting better and in some areas it is not a problem at all. I like the fact that we have a spotless home but sometimes she becomes so concerned about cleaning my dishes that I lower my level of complexity while I'm cooking.
