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?
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.
Aiden Richardson
Whoa! It's like a real shilling plot is building up now!
I wonder how much more watts the other speakers have?
Charles Cooper
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)
Robert White
Have you wished your favourite sellers a happy new year?

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?
Caleb Williams
Buy them and try them. That being said, the braided onces on ali are genereally decent.
Mason Evans
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
Dominic Turner
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.
Chase Gomez

>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.

Hover over and check characters. 青轴 - blue 茶轴 - brown 红轴/赤軸 - red 黑轴 - black 白轴 - clear 绿轴 - green 奶轴 - white 灰轴 - grey 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 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.
Zachary Flores

Oliver Stewart
Has anyone bought a mechanical keyboard from aliexpress ? I have around 45-50 dollars to spend
Carter Scott
You might want to spend a little more.
70-80$ can get you a magicforce 68 on amazon or a Anne Pro on Bangood
Nicholas Thomas

Josiah Brooks
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.

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

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
