Review on ๐ŸŽง Xiaomi Piston In-Ear Headphones - 2017 Colorful Fresh Edition (Black) with Remote & Mic: Enhanced Audio Experience by Stacy Hahn

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent price for headphones

This is a stripped down, no frills model from a company that makes great headphones. The connector isn't gold plated, and the mic/phone button feels light and solid enough. The only metal casing around the speakers is just aluminum. But the frequencies are balanced, precise and pleasant. There are no sharp spikes, fuzzy instruments, or sibilance. In general, the sound is warm with a slight midrange emphasis. The upper highs are muted compared to high-end headphones. But these aren't high-end headphones, these are very reliable mid-range headphones at a bargain price. They sound better than any headphones I've personally bought in the store but not as good as the Xiaomi MI Pro Iron Hybrids which cost more than 3 times the price, but they complement a more accurate sound than the sound of the pros Magnets with sound what is more typical of a good dynamic driver. If you're not a music lover or headphone collector and just want a great sounding headphone at a good price, this is a good deal. If you're a music lover or headphone collector who appreciates more than one type of headphone sound, this could be a good deal too. They sound very traditional, almost retro.

Pros
  • Elegant aluminium. The lightweight yet scratch-resistant aluminum sound chamber is anodized for a smooth finish and has a finely engraved CD-like pattern to prevent slipping. Filigree details such as the beveled edge fit comfortably in the hand and ensure elegance. Comes with two extra headphone sizes (S/L)
Cons
  • Not the best
