An unbranded bluetooth headphone reviewed

 ((LPT660))

 

The model you see above is a non named model as can be found  from the aliexpress page : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32752545510.html at only 10 USD
Notice at Oct 22 the price raised   to 13-20 USD

Very cheap  indeed  don't you think? Just looking for more info and reviews in the page there were few Greek buyers reviewing it this model very shortly . More than 5000 people have reviewed it with high scores , that can mean ti can be quite good 

ON January this year the model was under fair price that is,  lower than the usual. Indeed the model was priced at only 10.6 Eu showing a 'fake'  standard price  at around 19EU. I more than 8 months so far looking for interesting products and understood that most sellers in this platform show a standard price plus a inflated 'original' price. As in time of writing the price  is 64% off  the original price at 43Eu!!! 

MY wife was quite impressed for its low price and design and we processed to order them . It was delivered to the local post 90 days after the order The cheapest alternatives in the local market start from 20-25 Eu except OEM models.  

 

Overview 

This is a photo from the its web page . There is no any info about the code number.It means to me it is just a direct  OEM  product or just unbranded. Unfortunately my wife littered the carton box to the waste container, directly after she used it,  due to limited space in the house. 

 

It is also fortunate that its phones can be folded to the minimum possible and not to waste so much space

Now look on the bottom part  of the above photo: there is a on/off  switch I think that this is a nice enhancement over the typical on off switch that can drain the battery if the headphones could not be used for a very long time . This protects the battery much better 

They are also the typical volume / play /stop buttons etc 

In the bottom of the earphone there is also a micro SD card slot plus a 3.9mm socket for audio jumper . In the package there was a small cable for this purpose but we preferred to use a standard cable of the market, about 1,5 m long 

 

The design of the headphone is nice and typical with fatter than normal cushions than in most other models i tested . They offer better noise reduction than my Silvercrest earphones . Also my wife agrees with that! 

Performance

I used them both wired and wireless. Sound is quite better than my daughters AWEI 760  model tested already before. Awei sounds rather dull and a bit spatial. This model has a bit less trebles,shifted basses but sounds less 'dull' Reversing the headphones the sounds in the spatially middle points (ie as heard in the nose )  remain in the same position. It does not happen to the Awei! 

AKG DJ81 or even the cheap Silvercrest headphones are heard quite better than this at a flat , as i can call, audio frequency response.I can suppose that these BT headphones are designed to favor basses and middles at the expense of the higher frequencies. It  also happened older times when i tested other display models before, in a store . They were immediately rejected for only this reason!

Using it at first time with the BT transmitter : the time to pair with the BT transmitter was much longer than with the Awei model. Around 1 minute.There was a "lip-sync delay"  of around 300 ms caused from the transmitter. I used it to  watch a favorite TV series. 

With my smartphone : around 30  seconds with second try, It was identified as LPT660 The signal is lost at around 9 meters with a wall of 50cm in between. Typical in all cases so far. While calling someone , the fist two tones are garbled! They sound quite good with their inner mic as someone told me.  

Just a  short research with revealed the name Alexly as the producer. 

Overall 

My wife prefers to connect it with her smartphone, Her needs are very limited to watch movies of the remote past and telenovelas  while getting  isolated from external noises Even as a long movie and series fan she still cannot recognize what HiFi stands. Instead my daughter is in the start  of understanding what it stands for!  

My personal experience : the earphones are good as far as they are used for remote listening but cannot replace any HiFi model.  2/5

Rate 4/5 considering its very low price and the good reception as noted just above. 

Update Oct 22 

Still  3 yeas after the headphone is working peperly with no  problems and good Bluetooth connectivity in a house where a fireplace quite fat and irregular shaped  walls make 3 BT models show connection instabilities  in just 6  m far from a android TV which possibly has  low Bluetooth transmitter. but my ears are now a bit more sophisticated so at after short time my brain gets irritated when listening .
