Hi audiophiles sifus, need your recommendations:
Rigs: Nexus 5, occationally laptop.
Usage: listening to songs inside LRT, watching movie on laptop
File format: mp3
Genre of music: Pop, jazz
Earphones: IEM
Other requirements: adequate sound isolation as i use it in the LRT often, preferably with built in mic and audio controls compatible with android.
Budget: below RM150
I'm not a serious audiophile, so my requirement also not very high. Currently looking at Xiaomi Piston or Apple earpods, are they good? And are there any better choices out there? Thank you
haa... your situation is just like mine. Rigs: Nexus 5, occationally laptop.

i have not tried on earpods, but i took a leap of faith and bought a piston, and i am pretty amazed. in fact i loved it to bits! i am no audiophile too, but this piston gave me a slight taste on why audiophiles are what they are.
low bitrate and poorly encoded musics dont do justice to this piston, only slightly better than my RM25 pasar malam fake beats but the real difference become clear when you try to listen on some high quality re-mastered music on both earphones (i tried audiophile music on youtube. not that youtube codec is good but hey it's free!) and this piston leaves the fake beats in the dust. really, do give it a try. for only rm50 it is really best bang for buck.
**by the way i found out that the volume button didnt work on my motoG and seller said it only works on xiaomi phones. anyway i didnt care much**
