Review on Wireless headphones Audio-Technica ATH-CKR7TW, black by Boyan Mitov ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good product, more pros than cons.

The performance is of high quality, the interlocutor hears well in the call mode (there were no complaints), and the autonomy is very good. The sound is great with a large frequency range: the bass is densest, the midrange is transparent, and the high frequencies do not cut the brain. The overall impression is positive: the sound is great with a large frequency range; the midrange is transparent; the high frequencies do not cut the brain. We are satisfied with the headphones. Various advantages: Sound! Bass that is elastic and clear, with plenty of treble and bass, and volume that has some headroom. More than 80 percent of the time, I do not twist. aac, aptx codecs. While I was watching the movie, I did not experience any delays. The headphones will automatically power off and begin charging as soon as they are placed in the case. The primary right. In addition to that, it provides voice suggestions in English for women to use during phone calls and conversations. It is connected to the one on the left. Separately, the left will not play if the right is not present, whereas the right will do so even in the absence of the left. The casing is somewhat huge yet is of high quality. The hinges have a good track record. Button opening. Magnets used for landing are sturdy and won't become dislodged. The quality of the plastic is average, however after some time, scratches will form on it. Indicator for charging the headphones and case combined, showing three dots in blue and white. There are 3Dloop rubber bands for further fixation, but with them my ear cartilage started to pain, so I don't use them. However, I think they are great for playing sports since they keep the headphones in place. The silicone ear cushions are really excellent, and there are 4 pairs of them. The headphones do not slip out. The headphones have the same level of excellent sound isolation as my previous go-to headphones, the Sennheiser IE4, which I consider to be the industry standard. The headphones include control buttons that are mechanical, and they are positioned at the ends, which is extremely logical. This means that you do not have to put pressure on your ear in order to press the buttons, and inadvertent presses are also eliminated, which is not the case with touch controls. Having these drawbacks: 1. The fact that the plastic in my gray version is illuminated in the dark by a diode was a pleasant surprise to me given the low cost of the product. It's possible that this won't be the case in the black edition. 2. A lack of protection against dampness. 3. The autonomy period has been determined to be 15 hours (6 headphones + 9 case). I did not bother to take any measures; but, based on how I feel, the actual autonomy is roughly two times lower, with a case lasting about seven to eight hours. I use the aptx codec for my listening. I have a sneaking suspicion that the manufacturer declared autonomy at 15 hours with the typical sbc codec because aptx has a larger power consumption than sbc does. 3. Micro usb 4. Miscommunications with the ate: premeditated or unintentional? There is a program that can be purchased, but it is extremely nebulous and serves no use at all: there is geolocation, the ability to define commands for buttons, the ability to change codecs (although this is also available in the developer options), a display that indicates the charge of the headphones (and both of them together, not individually!), and manuals! All! It's possible that this application doesn't even exist! 5. There are sometimes fractures between the headphones; the left one is torn from the right one. I believe this is due to interference from a variety of sources. According to the instructions in the manual, you should switch to the sbc codec whenever there are disruptions. It would appear that this is a characteristic of "heavy" codecs as well as the bluetooth technology. The sound coming from the right still exists, but it is unpleasant and the reason for it is unclear. This is not a crucial issue. ate: 1. after using the product for a month, I was able to eliminate the disadvantage of autonomy and turn it into an advantage: measurements indicated 3 5.5 hours at a volume of 90% (5.5 hours headphones + 2 full charges from the case) for a total of approximately 17 hours, which is more than the manufacturer stated it would be able to play for. 2. When I play music through an aac player, there are no breaks in the sound at all, not even through my clothes or the walls. On aptx, for some reason, there were breaks, evidently for the tws headphone format. The aptx codec is not very polished or hefty, and it is likely for this reason that manufacturers are not in a hurry to import it into tws.
