Shanling - MTW100

I'm really really disappointed in the product. There's a clear deterioration in the quality of sound within just a few days of use. I'm a very careful user, never dropped the product or had an incident that could have damaged the product, yet the left earpiece is spilling the sound and going shrill on all sorts of music. I tried using it on my laptop (Dell XPS) as well as my phone (OnePlus 7T), equally bad on both. The only good thing about these are the ergonomics and the design. But that's that. Imagine spending ₹6,999 only to listen to shrill sounds coming out of your earbuds.
I went way over my budget to buy these after watching so many reviews and finally trusting Headphone Zone's review, but clearly you guys over praised this for nothing.

Loved the clarity of the music. I have been following shanling since a few months and when i got know they released a pair of earbuds I immediately contacted headphone zone asking when will these come to their site. Fast forward two months they were in stock! Thanks a lot for bringing these in India. The Tws market in India is kinda getting better now but it will take a time to get to a level where the consumers get a lot of choices for their money but, headphone zone is doing a great job.
Coming to the earphones the sound is great. Great mids and highs are to be expected from a pair of balanced armatures. This is my first pair of balanced armatures and i was ready for less than average bass. Contrary to my expectations the bass is great for a balanced profile. Bass prominent tracks also shine on these. Yes you won't get that low end rumble but they really make a good and tight impact. Definitely not for bass heads but this type of sound profile will not cause sound fatigue and you can listen a lot longer. Talking about the Ambient Mode, i was really excited for that but turns out it's okay hence the title. It favours high frequency sounds s lot more, asked shanling about it they said its for awareness to outside noises like car and stuff. When i turn it on in my office i can hear the keyboards clicks of the person next to me when no music is playing so the microphones are pretty good. Same thing should apply to the call quality right? Nope. I was never expecting a good mic quality from these. The person on the other ends thinks like I'm in small room with a lot of echo and ambient noise. Maybe it could be an issue with my pair idk. The battery life is pretty great and the case is really handy it is comparable to the airpods pro case in size. Yeap! Its damn small and wireless charging works well. Its earbuds last well for my 10-7 job and I don't charge the case for atleast a few days. A well made purchase. I would love to see anker tws in India as well.

I have been checking for the best audiophile sound in wireless truly earbuds but never found anything in the market then I waited for a long period of time. One day HPZ has dropped a mail regarding this Shanling - MTW100 upcoming product on their platform. As soon as I saw the product update on their blog made me interesting in research on this product. Every review on youtube and blogs give the best rating and feedback. So, As soon the product has been available. I add to cart to get delivered. waited just 1 day. HPZ guys are best in delivery time. I give 5/5 in delivery for the HPZ.
Shanling - MTW100 ( Balanced Armature Drivers ) has its own unique style. When you open from the box you feel like "WOW"!. The RED color highly polished with a shiny look. I am sure you will fall in love with this as soon as you open from the cardboard box. In the first 10 to 30 mints, I am in the confusing stage whether I chose the best choice on my requirement. It sounds like low volume and I can't able to judge the sound quality. After that placed back to the charging case and kept charging for 40 mints. Then again I picked up the earbuds and connected to my Apple phone. Then I open the Spotify premium to test the sound. I started searching for A.R Rahman tracks and just tap on play. I started listing the songs and the time going on 1 hour to 2 hours and then again for 3 hours and it went for 4 hours. I am telling you guys, I don't want to take it from my ears. It sounds such a great when you keep adding the hours. It's burning very well and keep giving the best sound output keep on. I really enjoy the sound now with all my favorite tracks. This is the best wireless truly earbuds for Audiophiles. Shanling team came with a great idea to choose our sound. I can't explain from a technical point of view. I can write only about my experience. Thank You HPZ for coming with different brands products and we always are supporting you guys in every time you come with best :) 

Balanced Armature Version - Black

It's been 28 days since I bought the product at Rs 7000. These sound great right out of the box. But now the right earbud plays from muffled to none. When I file the warranty claim, I'm expected to courier it back to Chennai at my cost. I'm already inconvenienced with a faulty new product. Instead of trying to assuage my inconvenience with the product I already paid for - I'm expected to pay even more to courier it to Headphone Zone in the hopes that they will be able to service the product! You should be replacing or refunding it no questions asked with the proper invoices. Terrible product, policy.

Got the Shanling-MTW100 single balanced driver version (Black). The presentation and packaging is awesome and speaks the quality. The earbuds are tiny but lil bit weighty, which in some way is good as it fits well into ears and does not fall off easily. There are 5 different sizes of eartips provided. The extra small ones are really useless though. The wireless earbuds are well built. They work in slave master configuration for stereo effect but can be connected individually with your device. Connectivity is very good with Bluetooth 5.0 and I have not faced any diificulty pairing these with my phone or computer. Connection stability is also very good. No drop of signal noticed within 10-15m range. There is no audio lag observed while playing Hi-res videos. You may enjoy youtube videos, netflix, Amazon prime videos or any other streaming services using these. Now about the sound, I felt it more balanced, bass is present but a tad more would have made it more desirable, mids are very good and to my liking, highs are present but there is some sparkle missing. Those who enjoy little more bass should go with the White ones with dynamic drivers. Battery life is as advertised. Supports SBC and AAC codecs only. APTx support is missing but you get USB-C charging. Overall, a very enjoyable sound, and a quality product by Shanling.

I am writing this review after about a month or so of regular use. Bought Balanced Armature (Black) for Rs. 6499

Build and Form (4/5): Frankly speaking, its not the best. But I don't expect a lot more in this price range either. The outer parts are made of glossy plastic, the insides have a matte texture, which makes it look a little better. The Lid is magnetic and snaps in nicely, although there is a slight wobble. The hinge, though it seems durable, could have been more stable. The Earbuds also span into their charging cups, thanks to the magnets, and won't easily fall out of the case. The buds also have a glossy hard plastic look on the outside, and a satin/rubberized finish on the inside. Ther are however pretty durable and didn't show any scratches even after rough use. The battery indicator LEDs on the inside are poorly made.

Connectivity(4.5/5): I had no connectivity issues across a range of devices, it was always quick and easy. However, there is no button to disconnect the current paring in the box, so perhaps the only way you will connect it to a different device is when you disconnect it from the first device. I faced only minor disturbances when I was surrounded by a lot of devices. The range is also great and should never be an issue in regular use.

Comfort(4.5/5): These fit nicely in the ear. Although it takes time to figure out the best way to position them for the most comfort. The ear tips provided add a great passive noise cancellation. The touch interface is pretty easy to use, it took me no time to get used to them. I don't know why people are booing the ambient sound mode by saying exactly what it's supposed to do. It gives a good awareness of the surrounding.

Sound...oh the sound(7/5): The Balanced Armature drivers are really something. Having used the M50x I thought I would have listed to all the sounds a song had to offer, But these still surprised me with new elements to my favorite songs. I can't explain this any further, one really has to try the Balanced Armature to get an idea. They produce extremely accurate sound, and there's something about it. Its just Love! This is where they surprise you. Outstanding sound for the amount you are paying.

Summing it up, you really can't go wrong with these. I'd highly recommend this, especially to people who would like to rediscover their favorite tracks.

HeadfoneZone is great as always
here is my experience of Shanling - MTW100 black
1. audio quality is great
2. touch control is very poor, most of the times buds don't register touch commands
3. fit really well in-ear, you can go jogging without worrying it falling
4. most disappointing of all is battery life, I think the case does not hold charged battery. buds seem to cover 4.5 hours of usage. I guess mine is defective

Here i have reached the end of my patience.

Here is the 3rd delivery of the freaking Shanling MTW 100 that headphone zone has send me that DOESNT work.

The ear buds refuse to pair witb EACH other.
The touch gestures DO NOT work.

Raghav ur review of this product is misleading.

I agree the quality of the sound is exceptional but what about basic durability and functioning of the basic features such as pairing and gestures, it is TOTALLY absent. Please do check those things and then tell ppl ur verdict.

Please arrange for the return of this trash from china, and please drop these marketing gimmicks and sincerely advise and direct me to a brand and model which FIRST OFF works and is
1. Audiophile
2. Waterproof
3. Bluetooth In ear

Shanling MTW100 (Knowles Balanced Armature driver) was an experiment as I always prefer wired earphones/headphones to preserve the audio quality. But the experiment worked. This piece of true wireless earbuds is a bang for the buck with its excellent qualities and features. The sound quality is well-rounded and balanced; design and fit are top-notch. If IPX7 water resistance is the icing, the ambient sound transparency feature is the cherry on top.
The cons are battery life and a lack of volume control. Do not expect it to provide 24 hours. You can get a maximum of 5 and a half hours on the earbuds and a little more than 2X charge from the case. But it is more than enough.
If you are planning to order one, do not hesitate. The quality product combined with Headphone Zone's excellent service will provide a pleasant experience to you.

PS: Reviewed after using for a week.
