Free shipping for particular electronic items at 1-Day until the end of April apparently.

 

Xiaomi Airdots 2 are among a number of Xiaomi products that qualify. Branded import with no Micro-USB cable included. 

 

Use code SUNSETCINEMA for $10 off $30 spend; $39.99 (item) + $0 shipping - $10 code = $29.99

 

Alternative codes; 5offboost ($5 off, no minimum spend).

Cheap, sure, but personal experience makes me note that you gets what you pays for...

 

It was only yesterday I finally gave up trying to reset my son’s Airdot 2s, after three months of the left bud frequently going dead for no reason - to their credit, 1day offered a replacement or full refund within 30 seconds of the online chat. That may well indicate wider ‘feedback’!

 

And these Airdot 2s were a replacement for a pair of Airdot Pro 2s that we’d bought him for Christmas, and which died within a day.

 

The lesson I’ve taken from this is to stay away from cheap buds - they not only sound pretty sh1t but they’re too often unreliable and poorly made.

 

As replacements, I’ve ordered my son a pair of first gen Samsung Galaxy Buds - $122 incl shipping, and IME experience they’re totally reliable and decent-sounding buds.

Think I read of others having similar issues regarding connection and consistency. Ultimately why I ended up getting a pair of Edifier x3 TWS earphones instead. But these Airdots 2 also have a lot of positive reviews, so they must be working well for a few people out there. But like you said, you get what you pay for. I can't adjust the volume on mine.

Anyone know if they are even genuine ones? All the mi stuff I have owned has been really well made. And 1 day do seem to love to sell fake apple cables and say they're genuine so wouldnt put it past them to be peddling knockoffs.
