In the past two years, true wireless Bluetooth headphone have become the trend of the headset industry, and new true wireless headphones from various brands are constantly emerging. Many users have also experienced the biggest advantages of true wireless headphones and enjoy their own music world freely.
Many people may have questions, can the sound quality of TWS Bluetooth headset meet daily needs? The earliest true wireless Bluetooth headphone was designed to get rid of the wiring harness, but the development of Bluetooth audio chips at the time did not keep up, so most of the early true wireless Bluetooth headsets were still SBC codecs. However, when this market trend became a hotspot in the industry, the improvement of sound quality also became the focus of research and development, and the chips supporting AAC codec and APTX codec formats turn positive.
Today, we come to look at this PaMu Slide T6 true wireless Bluetooth headset, which has different characteristics from most other true wireless Bluetooth headsets. It had received nearly US$ 5 million support on Indiegogo crowdfunding in 2019, which is the highest amount of crowdfunding project and the largest number of support across the platform in 2019, and it is also the best Chinese project for crowdfunding on indiegogo. It is also because of the distinctive design and functional characteristics of this headset that it has attracted the attention of so many people before it appear the market. It has also become a new true wireless headset that many NBA stars love and highly recommend.

The slide-up open is similar to the cellphone in the pass, not only convenient to open but also can be used as decompression artifacts. Qualcomm QCC3020 flagship Bluetooth 5.0 chip is used, which not only supports aptX high-fidelity decoding, but also has low power consumption and very fast connection speed. Due to the low power consumption, the headset can be used continuously for up to 10 hours, and the charging storage box has a built-in 2000mAh lithium battery, which can charge the headset 5 times more, and the total battery life can reach 60 hours. Another quite unique feature is that the storage and charging case of this PaMu Slide headset can reversely to charge a mobile phone that supports wireless charging. Although the built-in 2000mAh battery is not much for the phones, but it is indeed useful when there is no suitable charging device around or going out.

When the mobile phone that supports wireless charging is placed on the back of the storage box to start charging, the light transmitting circle of the indicator light will always be white. When you double-click the button again or the mobile phone that does not support wireless charging is placed in the sensing area for 3 minutes At this time, the indicator aperture will go out, and the wireless charging function will be turned off.
Due to the handle-shaped design of this headset, a built-in 85mAh battery can be built in. This capacity is relatively large in a true wireless Bluetooth headset, and coupled with the low power consumption of the QCC3020, this headset has a single battery life. At 10 hours, this is already a landmark battery life. It takes about 1.5 hours to fully charge the headset, and about 3 hours to fully charge the storage case. This is normal.

This headset has a total length of 37.5 mm, a width of 19.5 mm, and a thickness of 26 mm. The shape is a bit like a combination of a flat-tipped handle and an in-ear style. This shape can have more space for the battery and pickup inside. Audio microphones and circuit boards, and the grooves in the lower part of the auricle can be used to improve the wearing stability and comfort of the headphones.
