Pamu Slide: 'Now or never?'
The True Wireless Bluetooth headphones are certainly one of the objects in the technology space at the moment. In the aftermath of Apple and its AirPods, the product that brought this sort of device to mass achievement, there are many brands that suggest an incarnation of theirs. We're talking about those Bluetooth headsets that don't have a cable, not even the one that connects the headphones. A couple of' Buds' for slipping into each ear and connecting with each other and the wireless phone.
The fresh Pamu Slides, TWS (True Wireless Stereo) headphones with some very exciting characteristics talk a lot about themselves, even for a huge campaign like Facebook. They are manufactured by PadMate, a name many may discover unknown, but an significant Bluetooth headset ODM maker and OEM. In reality, he decided to take some of his projects straight to the public after developing them for years for other brands. To do this, the path of crowdfunding, of online fundraising, has been chosen in some cases. For the Pamu Scrolls, this path has been pursued and is now the route used to launch Pamu Slide.
The ancient model was defined by a parchment refill case with the' Buds' layout, while it changed everything for the fresh Pamu Slide PadMate. New housing with sliding opening and fresh design, with temples extending downwards, providing better microphone placement, more antenna space and higher equilibrium. It is to be inserted into the ear pin, unlike Apple's AirPods of in-ear headphones with silicone olives. So they're not just going to rest on the ear, but putting on a little deeper. They are very well studied from the design point of perspective, the weight is the first thing that has a positive effect on the first moment you wear. It could create some doubts about the sound quality, but when turned on, it is dissipated instantly. For True Wireless Bluetooth headphones, the sound is really good. Balanced, rich in bass and elevated tones in detail. There are far too many basses for my private tastes in some circumstances, but I would never call them excessive. The use of the recent Qualcomm QCC3020 chip with Bluetooth 5.0 assistance is part of the benefits of the headphones. The platform has low consumption, enabling a tiny and light battery to be used. In addition, the connection between the two earphones and the phone is very stable and, unfortunately, it is not a foregone thing in this area. The headphones report a battery life of 10 hours and up to 5 recharges for a total of 60 hours with the 2000 mAh situation. In field testing, the information is realistic. For regulating music, volume and calls, the earphones give touch features. The controls are situated on the body and not on the temples, which enables them to be positioned without touch interaction. I'm not a fan of headphone touch controls, but Pamu Slides proved to work well without ever pulling them against the wall. A significant flaw that is not negligible for many is the quality of the outgoing video calls: the microphones are not up to the position and our interlocutor hears the distorted voice and hisses at the other end of the phone call. Therefore, because of the very hard communication, lengthy phone calls are practically impossible.
To offer your share on Indiegogo, there are two variants: with ordinary case and with wireless case. The second enables you to charge a wireless technology telephone merely by putting it on the back of the case. The feature looks great on paper, but in real use it is impractical. 2000 mAh aren't many, the folded case isn't very stable, but what's puzzling is that it can only be used as a wireless powerbank: you can't use a USB-C cable to recharge your smartphone traditionally. Better saving $20 and choosing the cheapest variant. Because of the selection of materials, the case is lovely and pleasant to the touch, but has proved delicate and the reduced portion is very simple to remove.
The headphones are IPX6 certified and can resist water splashes and immersion for up to 30 minutes, allowing them to be used for sports operations without any issues. There are two original reward levels, from $49 with a standard case and $69 for one with wireless charging, and three colors, white, black and green.
The headphone's primary flaw is exactly the mode selected for market arrival. I'm not a crowdfunding supporter unless they're really creative projects in search of funding. When used merely to take advantage of the marketing impact and visibility by established businesses for relatively classic projects, it seems to me a bit of a twist in the real nature of this sort of tool.
The benefit is that, in order to be discussed, the Pamu Slides are provided at a very appealing price (even if the discount calculated on the list price appears to be highly inflated), the disadvantage is that, unlike purchases produced on ordinary channels, there are no protective instruments such as yields and guarantees.
In summary: the Perk at 49 dollars is very interesting and maybe it's the best way to take home the excellent Pamu Slide without running the risk of seeing a substantial price increase when they arrive on the market, if you know how the crowdfunding. The headphones are already in production in this regard and PadMate has already started shipping, so at least you won't have to wait months as it occurs sometimes.
The campaign finishes on the 7th of July, so for Pamu Slide ' Now or more, as I say in the title!'
