RustyvinylAs someone who doesn't use Apple products, I really get tired of seeing all the stuff "made for iPhone/iPad". I figured MD would do their homework on this one, especially when aptX at the very least can be found on most BT headphones and iems. I am definitely put off that they implemented AAC but nothing else. Big nope from me. They may as well have promoted these as a cheaper airpod alternative.

mayorblurpsUnderstandable, however with True Wireless you need to consider other aspects too. True wireless earphones are extremely sensitive for anything that can decrease strength of the Bluetooth connectivity. Unlike regular Bluetooth headphones/earphones, true wireless earphones are continuously receiving signal from source, and then resending it to the other channel. When you add support for higher bitrates (such as aptX), everything gets more complicated. We work directly with Bluetooth chipset manufacturers and we started developing true wireless earphones at very early stage so we have some context on this topic. Biggest issue that manufacturers are trying trying to prevent with true wireless earphones is constant signal drop outs between left and right as well as between source device. This is something we wanted to avoid as the seamless wireless experience ultimately leads to better user experience. How true wireless manufacturer's with aptX (usually price points +150 dollars) usually solve this issue is that they use so called NFMI technology between left and right earphone. The technology is good but it has higher battery consumption, very short transmission distance - and its expensive. If we would want to offer aptX - we would need to change the Bluetooth chipset which would lead to higher price point, lower battery performance and it would risk the overall wireless performance. Lastly - AAC is supported by Android as well. So while it's not aptX you will still get better performance from Android phones as well. I hope the above information is helpful.
JyriJyri, please, can you help. I’ve bought Nuforce Move refurb. After a while the right earbud stopped switching on at all. Being placed in the charging box, it blinks 4 times with a pause, 1st blink is a bit longer than the other 3. Can it be repaired at all?
