[Q] Piston 3 vs Piston 3 youth... Which is better? - General Accessories

I am looking to buy new earphones and I've heard a lot of praise for the Mi Piston 3s... But in eBay India there is a listing for Piston 3(₹1650) and Piston 3 youth(₹1050) I'm a bit broke right now but I do like the costlier one... But if both sounds same there is no use in buying the costlier one... Can you guys help me with which is better? Also would be great to have some coupon codes!

I'm also interested!

Well if you haven't already bought them, I've read that the two use the same driver meaning they would sound the same. The youth is the better option if you want to save money.

I'm also intersted.
Thank you.

What HiFi awarded these Sound Magic IEM's as best at $50.00 and under in their class

I bought a pair of Marley Smile Jamaica earphones. Usually under $20 but real quality that get excellent reviews. Sound more like $50 to $100 pairs.
Made from wood, with braided cord to prevent tangles.
When I got my G3 this week I compared these to the lg ones, and the lg earphones sounded terrible in comparison.
Xiaomi piston 2 - all functionality of original Quadbeat, better sound , threaded cable, 8 interchangeable earpieces.
I'm using melectronics m duo, there pretty and sometimes on sale.

Premium?
LG are a bit cheeky describing their headphones as premium.

At Rs.675(~$11) you get amazing overall sound, decent base, good build quality and flat wires that do not tangle. So I'm pretty happy.
Monoprice enhanced bass hi-fi noise isolating earphones, with Comply tips
I highly recommend Xiaomi Piston 2.
I bought a set of silver/white on Amazon. Excellent sound out of the box. Let them burn in for 20-30hrs and they get even better.
Beware of fakes.
Another vote for Xiaomi Pistons. Merimobiles have legit versions
thank you all for replying.... i will try one of them

Hey, guys..
I am actually using the Bose SIE2i In-Ear and it is damn amazing. The best headphones I have used especially since the OTA containing the MaxAudio Tweak.

[Q] Buying XIaomi Piston V3, any experiance with Geekbuying

I have been searching for a nice pair of earbuds for my nexus 5 and I stumbled upon the Xiaomi Pistons 3.
I really like the design and people write positive reviews about the earbuds.
After some searching I came by a website named Geekbuying, they sell them for a ridiculous low price.
That is why I doubt if these are the real deal. Does anybody have any experience with Geekbuying? Or even with experience buying the Pistons 3 there?
Many thanks in advance!

Xiaomi Piston 3,why it's so hot?

I found Xiaomi Piston 3 is very hot ,ant it's on a hot sale on those online shopping website,such as amazon,tinydeal,banggood.Why is't so hot?Because its brand or the product'quality or something else like piston 2?
Part of the reason is that Xiaomi is now a very well-known brand, especially its phone in the world has a good reputation, and partly because Xiaomi piston 2 does have a good performance.And the products of Xiaomi have always been known for cheap prices.So Xiaomi piston 3 become hot is reasonable.

Maybe you are right .Xiaomi is indeed a great company with good product and low price.But it seems that the low price won't last a very long time,for Xiaomi has also released several phones with much higher price,but it's not that successful.
it is successful because of its price/performance ratio. The same as all those KZ headphones. You pay little money, and get big performance
I have the Pistons 2.1, and planning go buy 3 if they go on sale. Tbh, those earpieces that I have is one of the dopest and best value buy product ever. You should try them. Around 20usd or much less if I am not wrong.

HTC 10 Earphones Died Looking For Similar Ones

I'm looking for something similar but it's like searching for a needle in a haystack. Most of the earphones don't have noise cancellation is this important and I like the bass of the original ones. I listen mostly to Hip-Hop music. Can anyone recommend me good quality "in earphones" for not more than 35 euro/usd?

I ordered one waiting them in a week.
They are amazing earphones the problem is that its full with Fake and the real and the fake are often sell for the same price.
I bought one original and read a tons of information how to spot a fake and to be 100% sure they are the real one.
The problems is and this is why some people say well they sound good but its not something WOW is because many many people bought the fake one and they even didnt know that.
Also the funny thing is like you are playing in a casino game sometimies ONE seller sell both and someone can recive Authentic some other FAKE they do look same and if you don`t know what to look for for sure you cant realize your are just a copy of the original.
So in a week when i recive mine will write an review.
For sure the Original SOUND like an Expensive Hitech Earbuds beyond the price they sell for.
Even i know the seller i buy from sell about 200 of this Original Earphones i told him! what im looking exactly and if i recive a FAKE one imideately will open refund disput. you have to be very careful and to know how to spot them test them do they are the real Hybrid Pro HD so untill they arrive i can`t be 100% Sure that they are real.

still waiting Chinese AirMail
They finally arrive after 40 days shipping wow.
I guess is not the seller faut however i dont like to wait so much time for shipping thats i dont like the shopping from Ali however:
I bought the Earbuds for 27 totall including shipping.
The Earbuds are amazing they are no doubt authentic one, comes with extra tips well packet and most important QR code that redirect you stright to the MI website with item unique ID that your pair of earbuds is legit and for warranty purpose.
The Sound of the Hybrids Pro HD is amazing they perform very very well im using my HTC 10 with Sauron MK II and im not even able to use the maxx volume.
The sound is very detailed and rich on the same time well defined and bass as well i didnt expect so good bass at all.
I have Original Beats Solo 2 and another wireless AptX Headphones.
Compared to the Hybrids they sound like a big crap now after reciving them today and have almost 4 hrs of listening im going to sell my Beats because i dont need them anymore. In fact everyone know that its very paintfull to listen lets say for more than 30 40 min with The Solos because you gona recive so much pain in the ears this mean they are not comfortable for the price of 180 British Paunds and Sounds like Crap compared to Earbuds that cost me 27 USD.
Also after 4 hrs of listening with the hybrids i dont feel pain or any kind of disconfort NO actually they are very confortable as well and not heavy on the ears.
With another worth go buy Hybrid Pro HD of course original ones much more better than the Stocks the Beats and who know what more they worth every penny for the performance they have.
