CCA C16 Earbuds Review: 8 Drivers PER EAR are CRAZY!

We’re in a headphone driver arms race. Consumer dual drivers were novel. Triple drivers were exotic. Then four and five driver earbuds blew out minds. But eight. Eight is getting a bit crazy.

***UPDATE 7/16/2019***

Pretty hilarious. I wanted to draw a winner live on yesterday’s podcast, but when I tried logging into Gleam, they were in the middle of a server migration and the entire site was down. You can see the carnage from the podcast here.

It took a while, but I was finally able to pick a winner. Congratulations to @warforge2004 on Twitter! And, a thank you to everyone who participated. I hope to do an international contest soon!

I reviewed the M5 Lite a couple months ago, and now I’m partnering with Huawei to give one away!

One lucky winner (USA ONLY) will walk away with a 10″ Android slate, which includes a stylus in the box! You can get more info in the video below, or hit the Gleam.io contest widget for the full rules and list of entries! Happy summer! Good luck!

Coolpad Legacy on Metro by T-Mobile: Android at $180?

Coolpad Legacy smartphone review! I want to spend more time with mid-range and entry level phones. It’s easy to get spoiled by premium handsets. After spending some time with the $40 Ilumina, the folks at Coolpad had another budget handset for me to check out. We might think phones at this price might be cheap cash grabs targeting the most vulnerable consumers, but this inexpensive phablet might have a few tricks up its sleeve… Continue reading “Coolpad Legacy on Metro by T-Mobile: Android at $180?”
