Chris here and welcome to a comparison of the FiiTii hi-fi pods
up against the mifo 05 pluses so both of these tdos earbuds do have seven hours of run time
and they both have an ipx 7 rating there so you shouldn't have to worry about splashes with them
getting a little bit of water on them now the cases are a little bit different one is slightly
larger with a larger battery which gives us a hundred hours of additional playback time
compared to 70 hours with the hi-fi pods here now the hifi pods have anc both of these do have a
pass-through mode and we've got app deck support with the hi-fi pods versus just sbc codec and aac
with the 05 pluses included in the box with both of these models we have a user guide we get this
high quality type c to type a cable which is quite a nice one and the charging time of both
of them is about two hours we get additional silicon tips now the silicone tips that they
do have with the fiti hifi pods i find to be of higher quality they have this more rigid inner
silicon to them that seems to be holding up a little bit better in my time testing them out
more than the 05 pluses now inside the box of the i5 plus you also do get this which is a type c to
type a adapter so looking at the design of them they are a little bit different the cases now
this one to me looks a little bit like an ashtray an old ash tray used to have in jumbo jet 747s i'm
showing my a chair when they actually used to have ash trays in them this design here
with the hinge and we've got physical click in buttons with the earbuds and i do find them to
be okay now normally i'm a big fan of the push in physical buttons instead of capacitive touch
but these ones i find you have to apply a little bit more pressure than i would actually like so
there's volume controls on each of them depending on what side you're pressing status led right
there and we do have two microphones with them so you can see the microphone at the end there
for the calls silicon tips as i showed you we do have mediums in various different sizes contact
pins there at the back for charging them and they fit in with magnets so when you give that a shake
and when the lid is down it's a magnet that's holding it into place there with the o5 plus and
it's not going to rattle that's one thing i hate about cases that rattle these do not rattle which
is good same with the the fiti okay so the fiti this one is not going to read at all the high five
pods and you got a button now physical button you press and it pops open with a spring i quite like
this action when i first got them i found myself doing it all the time for some reason and we've
got status led there for the remaining charge that's in the case here so this case will give us
70 hours and we get seven hours from the earbuds both of these are 70 hours and the case with the
mifo the 05 pluses is going to be 100 hours that's up to 100 hours okay so it's a little
bit more there that we do get out of it good build quality and you'll see that both of them
do of course have type c ports and status leds to let us know when they're charging and finish
charging now charge time on both of them is around about two hours for the cases and the earbuds
within them so i'll quickly show you the earbuds here of the hi-fi pods interesting design they are
quite a bit larger but i do find the fit of these in my ears to be better status led and we do have
in total six microphones with these now they have aptx hd support we also do have the active noise
cancellation so a lot more features built into the hi-fi pods and it was would definitely be
the one i would go through go for but yes they are more expensive of course so we've got the contacts
at the back of them there and a chrome-like finish right here you can see size-wise there is
a bit of a difference there they are a little bit larger too over the 05 pluses
looking at the weight of them so first up the fiti hifi pods just each earbud there is going to weigh
six grams and the total weight then of those is 103 grams so it's not exactly a light case but we
do get the extra charges from it and of course it's made out of metal and now moving over to
our other model here which is the o5s here the o5 plus five grams each and the total weight of the
case of them there is heavier you can see it 121 grams and it does have a larger battery in it so
that makes sense both of them connect up to my phones here very quick so using bluetooth 5 tech
now the difference with the codex is quite big here so we've got aptx hd support with the more
expensive hi-fi pods and you can choose depending on your phone which codec you want to use for that
uh but i'm going to leave it there on the aptx because that's the best quality one
so with the then the mefos the o5 pluses we have the choice here with at least this phone here
which is an oppo find x5 pro i can select aac codec or sbc it's recommended you do use aac to
try and get the best quality out of them now both of them can be used as just a single tdos earbuds
so if you put one of them back in the case you can connect up to just one and use it like that and
both of them do have an ipx 7 rating with them how do they sound so to my ears it's clear that the
vts do sound so much better okay so the hi-fi pods they have two balanced armatures and then their
driver and then it's handling the low so the mids and the highs do sound really crisp and detailed
got a lot of definition to them and even vocals very good i do like the fit of these a lot better
now loudness on both of them is quite good for my ears i can push them quite loud and i wouldn't
really want to go much louder with them so within the other ones here which of course the 05 pluses
they have more of a focus the tune of them out of the box on bass there are okay mids and trebles
but it just doesn't have that crispness that clarity and the definition you do get with
this model here the balance balanced armatures of course handling the highs in the mids there
you cannot compete with it at all and it's just day and night they're the difference between both
of them i have been listening to different genres for music and especially if you listen to and like
a lot of say rock as well these are the ones to go for and even the bass the bass that comes out
of the hi-fi pods is so much deeper and just better in general than the o5 pluses
and onto streaming video so the latency between both of these there isn't much of a difference
when i look at netflix both of them are in time here with the snapdragon 8gen one phone so it
will vary on the tech you're using because i've noticed there's a bit of a difference if i use
an iphone then i can sometimes see a tiny bit of a latency delay but here it's perfect to me but when
you game that's when i see a bit of a difference definitely the aptx hd codec is doing a lot better
than the aac codec here with the 05 pluses so if you want the best latitude you game a lot again
the win here would go to the fiti hi-fi pods just comes out to be better especially when gaming and
over to our microphones now so this is recording directly into the timeline of my video editor and
you're listening to right now the fiti hi-fi pods with these six microphones i'm going to swap over
now to the mifo 05 pluses as you can hear now from the sample of the o5 pluses they don't sound quite
as clear to my ears compared to the ct model there the hi-fi pods seem to be a little bit clearer
sharper these ones sound a little more muffled now on the comfort and the fit of both of these models
i do like the way these larger hi-fi pods fit in my ears okay even though they take up a bit more
oh space my ear they stick out a bit more you notice them a bit more the comfort of them is
superior and i can wear these for longer periods what i find with the o5 pluses is that when i
put them in they're okay initially but a lot of the time i feel especially for some reason with
my right ear that they want to come out on me and they've fallen out a couple of times all i've done
is just walked down the stairs and they dropped out on me one of them and it's always my right ear
for some reason so for comfort and fit the clear winner is the hi-fi pods just superior there now
the hifi pods do have the aptx hd codec so we get better latency they also have anc i want to
talk just briefly about the anc on these i do find the anc to be not that powerful with the hifi pods
here so that's putting it onto the strong mode there's a voice feedback that you hear when you
hold down and you cycle through so you've got pass through you've got the lighter anc then the strong
anc and it does a little bit of a difference but compared to some other in-ears i wouldn't say they
are the stronger ones you do hear reducing some of the background noises like a fan that you can they
can hear a compressor or something or or that kind of general kind of noise but it won't block out
voices completely and of course it's not like over airstyle anc headphones are far superior of course
because of their design just going right over your ear the pass-through modes with the miphos
however the o5 pluses is actually superior to the more expensive model which doesn't really make
sense but it comes through a lot clearer and just boosts it up with more gain which is interesting
now microphones as you heard from my sample the microphones to my ears at least do sound superior
with the high five pods here because well it's got more mics there's more tech involved there
too as well it does make sense there now the battery run time on both of them you do get
more i find okay they claim seven hours on both but i believe it's seven hours with the ansi off
on these you get a little bit less you get around six hours uh five and a half to six this is about
six and a half with the o5 pluses so they do win out on that pass-through mode and then the battery
life and you get 100 hours additional charge or 15 charges more out of the case versus the 70 hours
out of the high five pod so that's one area it does get a win now when you're listening to both
of them which i've been doing i've been swapping between both like a madman with the same track
uh they are both i would rate are they o5 pluses here they don't sound bad they've got good bass
mids are okay but they definitely do lack in the highs just not that detailed not that crisp
it cannot compete the single driver versus the two balanced armatures within the hi-fi pods here from
fiti so fiji's definitely got the win there for that for the sound quality two balanced armatures
and the main driver the base on these very deep and strong volume on both is good but then when
it comes to the vocals and then the highs and especially genres like rock they really come
through sounding great here on the hi-fi pods versus these so that gets the win and overall
it gets the win for pretty much everything just apart from those two categories as i mentioned
there now disconnections have i had any problems with either of these now because i've been running
both of them at the same time i did actually experience at times with the mifo mifo 05 pluses
an occasional little breakout not a complete disconnect but where it would just cut out
for a split second and come back again latency as well when streaming netflix or amazon prime video
better with the aptx hd codec when gaming barely noticed any delay there is a fraction of a delay
but you could see the delay and and hear it with the with it definitely when gaming with these but
both of them with netflix seem to be fine and in time with people's mouths which is what you want
so there we go that's the full story there my pick of course is going to be the fiti hi-fi pods over
the mifo 05 pluses so thanks a lot for watching and i hope to see in the next one bye for now
