first for xiaomemes

s.VickyGao

>10,000mah
i got one for 10usd on sale a while ago. it was good stuff!

Still waiting for my 11/11 geekbuying order

Any good Apple-style earbuds?

Does anyone know some good walkman type headphones?

KZ LP3

looks like shit and weedlmao
no thanks

then go kill yourself

Picked up a blitzwolf bw-f4 from amazon because I gave my xiaomi speaker away and was missing having a speaker.

I really cant say I'm overly impressed with it, it sounds better than the xiaomi but not €25 better.

It has a much more balanced sound with more bass past 60% volume but lacks any kind of DSP to boost the bass at lower listening levels, which is probably ok given that it doesnt get much louder than the xiaomi, despite being rated at 20W over the xiaomi's 6W, and I'm always listening to it at at least 50% volume.
But it doesn't start distorting as quickly, I can turn it all the way up to 90% volume without any hint of distortion

The bass sounds really good when the speaker is in a corner, not super tight like a proper 2.1 system but still good, but loses a lot when the speaker is just standing freely and you stand a few metres back. I feel like it pumps out sound in narrower cone than the xiaomi but I cant remember exactly either way you'l want to get this thing at ear level if possible.

The treble is nicely detailed with good highs but mids get a little lost in certain songs so I downloaded Music Volume EQ and nipped a little bit off the 3kHz and 14kHz and that seems to have solved it. I tried boosting the bass with it as well but it just got kinda loose and boomy.

Overall build quality is fine, the buttons are mushy and made out of the lightest plastic known to man and the power button is tiny and on the back of the unit for some reason. The top plastic has a nice faux brushed metal look, the speaker grill is metal and wraps the whole way around the unit and bottom has a huge rubbery/foam pad to stop vibrations. The packaging is spartan, its comes with micro usb and 3.5mm aux cables. I cant speak to battery life as I just got it.

I'd probably give it an overall 3.5/5, 4/5 for portable speaker sound, 2.5 for value for money. I'm toying with returning it but I think I'll sleep on it, I may have built up how good it was going to be in my head.

Any recent purchases from China that you'd like to share and discuss with /csg/, RegularOP?

Which Xiaomi speaker you had?

gearbest.com/speakers/pp_241960.html?wid=21

Xiaomi Yi

guys im buying all my shit in white, like PC case, headphones etc what table would be best to compliment my set up?

Would white products look better on a black table as it will stand out or white on white table so it blends in?

Such an obvious shill, you are making the posts way too quick. Even my turboshitposting wasn't quicker than your perfect referallink to the shop

tldr kys op

How the F. would you ship a heavy table? Just buy a table from IKEA

>not having all your furniture shipped from Glorious China

Casual.

How much did you pay for the blitzwolf?

oh my bad, you are right for thinking that im buying it from china, cause im in csg, but i am buying it from IKEA, just asking which colour

its called a tread watcher kiddo

this guy made a review on his new speaker and you call him a shill? gtfo /csg/ nigger

kys

£45
amazon.co.uk/Bluetooth-Speakers-BlitzWolf-Subwoofers-Microphone/dp/B01JRD4ET8/

Ok, I was just wondering because you said the blitzwolf was 25€ more than the Xiaomi speaker but the prices I'm seeing is $45 for the blitzwolf and $35-40 for the Xiaomi speaker.

Whoa! It's like a real shilling plot is building up now!

I wonder how much more watts the other speakers have?

From the other thread.


Can I pay with a regular credit card on taobao? Is it as easy as

>create account
>buy


I want to buy Gateron Switches which are cheap as shit there, but I also have some trouble with the translations (tea switch 55g, what the fuck)

Have you wished your favourite sellers a happy new year?

alternatively just write sad frog hat in search

70p gel pens came. They're just as good as the Xiaomeme pens tbqh.

aliexpress.com/item/learntoshortenyouralilinks/32785864216.html

Where can I get decent cheap braided micro-USB cables? Something that doesn't fray near the connectors. I found a bunch on AliExpress, but I'm not sure how good they actually are. Also, how are those magnet adapters?

Buy them and try them. That being said, the braided onces on ali are genereally decent.

thats because almost all chinese pens have ink/refils made from the same manufacturers with tips imported from the glorious swiss.
the kingdian pen is great too, because its the same shit

Alright, I'll try to pick up a few. Want something that feels slightly higher quality than the plastic cables that I use on my phone, keyboard and PS4 controllers.

typical Sup Forumstard

>being this blinded with autistic rage against RegularOP that you accidentally shit on someone else

Almost as laughable as that autistic page long rant against him having a trip.

Around 10 people get added to the list per day. That sounds like maybe one or two sellers using it. So here's an idea: buy the cheapest products you can find from them, use a fake name and address (you can change them each order), then leave 1 star review and open dispute when it arrives. After you get the money back, PM the seller something about not using the site.

Any of these any good?

Any recent purchases from China that you'd like to share and discuss with /csg/, Lithu?

Personally I'd say black tabletop would look neat with a white case.

OP, plz

Has anyone bought a mechanical keyboard from aliexpress ? I have around 45-50 dollars to spend

You might want to spend a little more.

70-80$ can get you a magicforce 68 on amazon or a Anne Pro on Bangood

pls I want to give my Chinese friends money

These two came in the other day.
Cassette MP3:
-works with up to 8GB SD
-small battery but that means faster charging
-has a small LED that I think shows that it's on
The thing is that it makes an annoying static sound no matter what headphones I plug into it. Got it for 1.40€
OTG thing:
-works as intended
No complaints. Got it for 0.50€
I've got a fake DW coming in soon (I hope), a lapel mic, a 3×3×3 cube, some apple earphones knockoffs, a credit card knife, a headphone jack splitter, the cheap AULA mech keyboard and a scientific calculator. Some are from Gaybest, some are from Ali. Will review most of these as soon as I get my hands on em.

And I am not a Lithu.

I'd offer to do an update of my Eiaosi X6 after a month of daily use but I don't want to upset you any more than you clearly are already.
I'm not Lithuanian either, just curious why someone would care so much to be recognized as the op of these threads and then never actually contribute to the threads themselves

is shark still a meme?

What's the best memed chinese mech?

Nah, their prices are the same as mainstream ones atm

lolita
guaranteed to land you on a list

Just occured to me I should add translations to the wiki too. You da real mvp user.

Posted in last thread.

Thinking about getting my GF a Mi5, she's had an iPhone for ages but wanted the S7.

The Mi5 looks very comparable (and looks better imo).

Would almost definitely install a custom ROM on it (Cyanogen or something) just in case of Chinese botnets.

Anything else I should know, other than what's on the wiki? Is it fairly idiot-proof as a phone?

Source on the GPS not working?

As an addendum to this I let the speaker fully charge and it is much louder now but even more curiously I think it plays even louder over bluetooth than aux, I tested every this morning as it was charging and through aux.
Maybe the supplied aux cable is just shit but it can easily fill the largest room (a kitchen about 16x10 foot) in my house with sound now.

Also whats peoples experience with DHGate like? I really want this automatic knife

wow, didn't realise we had biologically female posters in this thread, welcome m'lady

Clearly I'm fooling you if you think I'm Lithuanian. Care to answer the question?

no, you're a hungarian gypsy

tl;dr don't buy the Mi5 if you need a functioning GPS.

Is that v1 or v2? Bad news for you if it's v1.

Mi5 is a good choice.

Well, fuck.

I think I saw in one of those that Cyanogen Mod didn't help either (though I might be mistaken.)

Is there a similar-priced and spec'd phone you'd recommend that works? Something by Meizu maybe?

Sadly not if the GPS doesn't work.

Good chinkshit lock pick set?

cant wait for americunts having to pay more for their chinshit lmao

Oh right, they still can't into ballpoint pens

The razor handle? It's the one that comes with the Ikon X3 but I think they do it separately too.

explain dis pls

also how can I check?

>Sadly not if the GPS doesn't work.
GPS does work atleast in Finland, don't know about USA

GPS is the fucking United States' navigation system. GLONASS might work better in Finland, but certainly not GPS.

Zuk Z2 if you want another good cheap SD820 5".

Le Max 2 is also cheap rn if you want something huge and powerful.

You have ten seconds to either buy a chink shit mermad tail or explain why you don't have a chinks shit mermaid tail.

From that big list of threads posted, it seems to be not so much a case that it doesn't work, just that it's massively imprecise (1km+).

The problem is, it can't find and lock on to satellites it would appear.

thanks, but how about the payment on taobao? Why use a proxy/agent?

If you can speak Chinese, by all means try arrange shipping with the seller
