> HPM-60 or HPM-70?
Bookmark topic
First, Have a look at these pics:
The one on the left is HPM-70, and the one on the right is HPM-60.
After converting my K750 into W800, yesterday I bought a HPM-70 handsfree coz I thought it’s quality is much better than HPM-60. (K750’s original one)
[AND I bought the original HPM-70, three times more expensive than nonoriginal ones]
When I tested the new handsfree, OOOOOHHHHH, It was just like listening to a 1$ handsfree. Suddently I remembered that I had uploaded aksd’s no_hissing files and it must be somehow related to that.
When I got home, I rolled back to the original acoustic files and then tested again: JUST Normal quality.
NOW the matter is that: with HPM-60 I had no problem with no_hissing files AND the quality was fantastic, and also with louder volume; But with the new HPM-70 (Which is ORIGINAL WALKMAN’s handsfree) the quality is just normal.
EVEN with original acoustic files, HPM-60’s volume is about 10% more, AND also with much better Bass.
As seen in the pictures above, it MUST be due to headphone’s size (Although not always the bigger is better BUT for a headphone it IS important)
All in all it’s a real shame for SE that HPM-60’s quality (which is non-walkman handsfree) is MUCH better than HPM-70’s quality (which is walkman’s standard handsfree)
What do you think?
P.S. Although the matter of sound quality is completely a SUBJECTIVE matter, BUT there are some big differences that you can easily notice, just if you have non-impaired ears!!!!

I wonder what's the issue with so many HPM-70s around. I bought a set of original HPM-70s too, for my K750, and found them to be much better than the HPB-60 - Yes, it's HPB60, and not HPM. (K750 default headset).
Is it a fact that
is not consistent with their quality control?

The HPM-70 i bought was from a w800's package that the phone itself was stolen and the owner put it there for sale.I bought the HPM-70 and the USB cable.This way my hansfree should be the original one; Isn't it?
Another topic apart from quality(which i believe is completely a subjective matter), is the volume which is noticably higher(5-10%) in HBP-60 than HPM-70.
@QVGA
Have you ever compared ur HPM-70 with any HPB-60?

@happykhan,
Volume i definitely higher in the HPB-60, coz it's meant to drown all external noise with it's own volume, unlike the HPM-70, which insulates your ears from external noise.
And as far as your narrative goes, I feel, the seller has you taken for a ride, though I can't say for sure.

Ofcourse i have. And how can you possibly think SE will provide inferior ear phones with a W series phone?
