Just got mine from deal at £3.80 and really happy with the quality of these, for the new price delivered a real bargain.
Yeh takes several weeks to arrive but I have always received what I ordered from them.

THIS IS NOT THE PISTON 1. This is the 'colorful starter edition', which is a budget xiaomi headphone trading on the piston name. Probably still a good deal given the price but not what OP has sold it as. I believe the piston Youth edition is very close in sound to the piston 3s if you want something 'actually good', but also closer in price. Well worth the $9 if you have any interest in sound quality. Everything I have read from every informed comparison of the two favours the piston 3s. I'm happy to be shown wrong if you have any educated comparisons that show otherwise..I like the idea of the hybrids. I wouldn't characterise the 3s as 'bass heavy' either, they are certainly not for those who prefer bass over quality.

Nice set of budget in ears.
Good replacement for the cheap earpiece that comes with the ps4. Pop these in your controller for a cheap upgrade. :sunglasses:

Seems Gearbest sells twice as many of the more expensive piston 3 :smirk:

These are amazing quality earphones for the price! The sound quality is absolutely superb! So much better than the stock apple ones!

not noise cancelling, but in all honesty I would go for piston 3s if you like bass, for clarity and overall better design I would pay the extra for hybrids (what I currently use, they really defy the price point)

I own the hybrids and piston 3, I prefer the 3 to the hybrids have more bass but the 3 seem a more balanced and a little less processed both sound good for the price though.
